1 Brake Disc Pads problem

Failure Date: 06/07/2018

While driving/turning my car seems to halt and make a grunting/rubbing noise. I have taken it to the dealer several times who says there is not a problem. However, they have had me replace my brakes pads and rotors twice in the last 10 months. Something is wrong and I believe that whatever the problem is continues to damage my brake pads and rotors.

2 Brake Disc Pads problem

Failure Date: 11/01/2016

Had about 20,000 mi on the odometer and brakes start to pulsate very bad, causing lots of vibration in the steering wheel. Had dealer check brakes and showed little signs of wear on the pads. This continued till I finally had the brakes and rotors replaced with aftermarket ventilated rotors and new brake pads. After only 200 miles, vehicle is again vibrating very bad on hard braking and steep inclines. Going to have dealer check the calibers on the front to see if one is sticking, where brakes were changed. Never had this occur in any other vehicle where the pulsating returned after replacing brakes and rotors.
