Gm is refusing to fix problem. They claim that front brakes are over heated and rotors blue. Suggest that customer change driving habits and use transmission lower gears to assist slowing vehicle. All this accured between 35,693 miles and 37,389 miles.
Right front caliper locked up resulting in numerous repairs including alignment, new tires and idler arms replacement at my cost. All under 30k miles!!!.
