1 Brake Disc Pads problem

Failure Date: 02/13/2021

February 13 2021 I was driving my car back home from a hike going down a grid I had to break because I was approaching cars and my wheels started to shake. I took my car to the dealership ship to get the breaks inspected early morning. Four hours later I get a call saying that my break pads were burnt and that the rotors were warping and had hot spots. I've had the car for about a year and they are burnt already?? not even my dads GMC that he's had for 7 years hasn't changed the breaks pads since he bought it. Vw is charging me $700+ to change the breaks pads and rotors because it�s� wear and tear� at least that what they told me. I'm feed up having to take my car in every couple months. I've recently had to take it bc the car was low on oil a month and a half after I had just taken it for an oil change. They said that there were no signs of burnt oil or leaks. This is the second time it's has happened. Let's not forget that when I turn to the right the wheel fees like it's hitting something and the steering wheel shakes.

2 Brake Disc Pads problem

Failure Date: 01/09/2021

Brakes were making noise took into dealership to be check out and was informed front pads low on pad life and rotors warped and need replacement ASAP. Rotors warped to the point of needing repair, at 30000 miles. The car is kept in arizona in a dry climate, no rain, no hills, mostly highway driving with little braking and for the last 8 months, minimal use due to stay at home orders. Dealer has no explanation as to why these parts failed when they should last to 60000 miles at least. This is absolutely unheard of on a vehicle that is not even 2 years old and only 30000 miles. Volkswagen needs to do some serious research and possibly issue a recall. Dealership quoted $553. 00 for front brake pad & rotors replacement. . .
