I am having my brakes replaced for the 6th time since buying the car. Just about every time, it has been the front brakes, requiring new rotors and pads. Since the last time the brakes were replaced, they constantly grind and squeal, making it impossible to know when they wear out. Everyone I have talked with seems surprised by the frequency with which I need new brakes. Since I was out on your website and saw others with similar complaints, I thought I'd add my input.
