Air control valve failure. This item not covered by my 90,000 mile warranty.

This item not covered by extended warranty either. Why not?.
While traveling at speeds of 50 mph or higher and applying brakes, a noise comes from vehicle, and vehicle pulls to one side, mostly to the right side more than the left. Delaership has worked on brake calipers, and replaced rear brakes. These repairs have failed to remedy the problem. Consumer is still experiencing problems with the brakes. The front brakes were serviced and the mechanic freed the calipers. Consumer was told to drive the vehicle and if the problem resurfaced work would then need to be done on the hydraulics. Consumer was informed that the brake pads had only three thousand miles left on the pads and that this was normal wear and tear. Consumer requests reimbursment for monies paid that should have been covered under the new car warranty.
