4 Brake Disc problem of the 2000 Chevrolet Impala

Failure Date: 03/04/2002

Rotors warped at 16,054 miles. Dealer resurfaced rotors and sanded pads. Rotors warped again at 29502 miles. Dealer replaced both front rotors and pads. At 38735 miles I took car to dealer with complaint of a bumping sensation in the steering mostly when turning. Ser. Mgr. Reported that Impalas have had intermediate steering problems, but mechanic reportedly found no such problems, however, he found that rotors were again out of round. Rotors were resurfaced and pads were scuffed. This did not help the bumping sensation in the steering. Feel that Chevrolet knows they have serious problems with rotors and steering, but no solution has been offered to me.

8 Brake Disc problem of the 1996 Chevrolet Impala

Lf disc brake caliper has had a problem with not releasing or "floating" properly. This has caused accelerated wear to the out brake pad. Dealer has been unable to correct. I had to correct myself. I am an ase master auto technician. Dealer stated that this was "normal" which it is not. If I was not a trainined, certified and licensed brake technician the problem would not have been detected and/or corrected. This could have lead to reduced braking ability and possible accident.
