Failure Date: 08/25/2000

Brakes make a high-pitched squeaking sound when I brake. The car requires alot of braking time & distance to stop - it doesn't stop quickly. The car has died on 4 occasions. Three times were at red lights, the fourth I was going about 35 miles an hour. I notifed the nearest dealer (in norco California). The manager of the repair shop had me bring the car in (an hour drive) & then said he was too busy to look at my car when I arrived. I asked if I could leave it & take a replacement or rental car until he had time to inspect the car. He said no, I should just bring it back another day.
