Grinding noise in the braking system when brakes are applied. Have had the car back to the dealer for service twice. The second time service manager stated that GM was well aware of the problem, that all Cavaliers have it and there is nothing they can do about it. Service manager stated that it was caused by "travel" in the calipers.
