We have had the car for 4 months & had the front brakes replaced 4 times now, an still sqeauling. The key falls out of the ignition while car is running.
I have had the pads and shoes replaced 3 times 01/22/00,05/16/00 and02/02/2001 the rotors replaced on the first and second date and the rear drum brakes replaced because of leaking. The car was bought used and it was a rental car but I still believe that 3 repairs in 14 months is more than it should be. The car has had 2 drivers now it only has one my husband drove primarily and was told it was his driving since his death I am the primary driver are you going to say the same thing. It is a problem of mechanics and parts not driver. I have paid almost 600. 00 dollars in repairs I feel this is excessive and would like something done about this. I am constantly afraid the brakes will go out again. I do not feel safe in my own car but only have one mode of transportation to get to work so my hands are tied unless you can help me. Thank you.

Brakes needed replacing 4 months after buying car. Dealer said was not under warranty. Had complete brake job on front 2 times, 1 on rear, cylinder replaced, shoes replaced, brakes still do not work properly, something comes loose if pressed suddenly causing car to slide and not stop. Pads have been replaced numerous times due to quick wear out. Accident could have been avoided if brakes worked properly. Car does not stop efficiently. Also,engine head gasket was replaced under warranty. Engine has been leaking oil again since 7/98. Dealer maintains that I will have to repair because out of warranty. Oil light does not work to warn when oil is low. Constantly adding oil to keep at proper level. Parking brake has been adjusted several times but does not stay long. Fuel gauge gives inaccurate reading. Appears to be empty when not. Air conditioner quit month before car accident in 8/99. Was repaired with collision repairs. Repairs reveal prior accident before buying car. Was not notified of this. Have spent too much money on this car in two years for car to be as new as it is. There are other defects that will be reported on an additional form.

Braking sustem is defective. Replaced rotors/pads and calipers three times within a year. Dealer notified, and rfuses to repair unless cost goes to consumer.
When consumer first acquired vehicle he had to replace the front brakes. Then two week later, he had to replace the rear brakes. Also brakes made a grinding noise, like metal to metal rubbing noise.
Ongoing problems since purchase of vehicle of the vehicle vibrating - especially the steering wheel and the brake pedal - when applying the brakes at highway speeds. Have had this problem supposedly repaired four times but it still persists. Brakes also feel like they are slipping.
The paint peels off , it has been painted several times . The steering wheel shakes when you stop,it vibrates and is very noisy. Also, brakes squeal in the front, they have been replaced, but the problem is still there.
Muffler - loud rattle, brakes - loud scratching sounds/ replaced pads still scratching.
