| Service Brakes problems |
My 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer has two main issues. First, there is a constant squealing noise when braking. I reported this twice to the dealer — the first time they said it was just sand inside the wheel. The noise continued. On the second visit, they told me it would cost over $100 to inspect the brakes because the wheel needed to be removed, which I couldn’t afford. This problem started before the vehicle reached 36,000 miles. Second, the electrical system malfunctions occasionally while driving. When I connect my son’s phone to bluetooth, both the dashboard and infotainment screens shut off completely for a few seconds. This happens while the vehicle is in motion, and it is extremely dangerous, especially on highways. The screens then turn back on. I believe both issues may relate to safety and should be investigated.
The brakes have been squeaking and making grinding noises since I hit 13,000 miles. It was intermittent at first, and was only happening when I was slowly hitting the brakes,but every time I stop now you can hear them squeak or make noise. . I took it to a local mechanic and they said the brakes look ok, but to check with the dealer. I took the car to the dealership and they said they didn’t hear the squeaking or grinding but they gave me a pamphlet that said the brakes just do that, that it’s normal they are making sounds and the pamphlet said possibly reasons why they are noisy. The brakes sounding like that is not normal,because they don’t sound good, and they seem to be getting worse.
