I've had the brakes worked on every 10K-12K miles, and have paid so many times to have the pads/rotors repaired/replaced or "cleaned/turned" that I've reached the point where I consider brake work on my ST a "regular maintenance" item like changing the oil or checking tire pressure. Too frustrating.

Squealing brakes for several months. Dealer kept saying it was the new material being used for the brakes. They did not squeal when we got it... so why after they fix it. we had them fixed no fewer that 3 times!
