Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 49 of 49, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Premature wear of rotors. Vehicle has had three sets of rotors in a year. Also, when brakes are applied in wet conditions pedal goes to the floor, resulting in extended stopping distance. Dealer has inspected vehicle several times, and has not been able to duplicate the problem.
Intermittently when brakes are applied pedal goes to the floor, resulting in extended stopping distance. Dealer has not been able to duplicate the problem.
Informed by gm customer service that their 3yr/36,000 mile warranty does not cover anything to do with the brakes, no route to follow to escalate problem! Can you advise??
When applying the brakes at any speed I feel I don't have the security of knowing I will stop in time. The low traction light is always coming on and now I must replace the brakes. I hit a van because of this. I feel this car is unsafe but proving this is another thing. Dealers look at it and tell you that you are the first one to complain.
Brakes intermittently work, usally in wet climate. While traveling at 60-65 MPH brakes won't work. Pumping & applying pressure when brakes are wet makes it very hard to stop, and vehicle will come to a screaching halt. Dealer & manufacturer are aware of the problem, but will not react to consumer's problem.
Disc brake rotors replaced total of 6 since car was purchased new. Vehicle still responds poorly to brake input when in rain or wet roads. Dealer does not recognize this safety issue even after repeated discussions. With multiple rotor replacement and inability to diagnose and repair brake issues when driving in wet weather, this presents a serious safety problem to me and my family as well as other drivers on the highway. Have you had other complaints similar to this one ?
While traveling noticed noise from the brakes. Dealer repaired brakes 3 times. Still has problems. Please provide further informaton.
Hard stopping in rain at highway speeds. Dealer serviced brakes, but problem exsits.
