Ive read many complaints of impalas having a shuttering when vehicle is breaking at high speeds around 50mph. 2002 impala base model with 3.4 liter began doing this around 90000. I took it to a mechanic and he said the brakes needed replacing so i let les schawb do this. well they turned the front rotors and problem came back in 10000 miles. i just fixed the solotion myself. at 128000 miles. the prob is you cant use oem brake rotors...they are crap. they are cheaply made and heat up and warp, that is what causes the vehicle to shutter at breaking. installed new aftermarket durolast gold rotors in front with durolast pads. the prob is gone. it cost 150 dollars to fix a prob that the morons at the shops didnt know or didnt bother to tell me. if you want something done right then do it urself. i just replaced the front rotors and pads. 1.5 hrs of time mostly spent trying to loosen the bolts that les schwab over tightened.
