2002 toyota avalon developed repeat problems with the brake equipment.*mr after 4,000 or 5,000 miles, the consumer heard a strange noise coming from the front of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer 3 times before they finally agreed that the rotors needed to be replaced. The consumer stated whenever the vehicle was due for its 30,000 mile check-up he was always told the vehicle needed brakes.
All four brake rotors prematurely wore out at 46,000 miles. Dealer was aware of this issue.
On 8/9 I took my car to darcars for front brake service using a coupon for $64.95. Against my consent I was charged 368.27 the only additional work I consented to was an oil change that should not have been more than $7 as a result of the type of extended warranty I have.
While driving, the consumer heard a grinding noise coming from the rear brakes. It was discovered that the brakes wore out prematurely. Dealership repaired the brakes, but the problem recurred. *ak the parking brakes had been adjusted on two occasions. The service dealer had no explanation as to why the rear brakes on the vehicle wore out before the front brakes. The consumer had spoken to two other avalanche owners who experienced the same problem, both of which, stated that the problem occurred around 25-31k miles. *sc
