I have had to have my brakes and rotors replaced twice since I've owned this car. The first time was at about 20,000 miles and the last time was at about 40,000 miles. Both times it was under warranty, however now this vechicle is out of warranty and I fear that this is going to be a reoccuring problem. Not to mention that in between the times the brakes were replaced the vechicle was taken to the dealer numerous times for brake squels when stopping. Even after the rotor and brakes were replaced, this noise it still present. I plan on selling this car at this point and cutting my losses, however now today a recall has come out for a stalling problem. Once this is fixed this car will be sold to anyone willing to buy this bag of bolts.
