What owners wrote
I was driving in the rain going the speed limit. My jeep hit a pool of water on the surface of the highway and started to skid and hydroploane. The next thing I knew it was flipping over and landed on the shoulder of the highway. I was lucky to be wearing my seat belt. I was suspended upside down by my seatbelt. I was able to unbuckle it and crawl out the drivers side window which was completely blown out.
Consumer states that the rotors wore out. Dealer notified repaired and replaced 8 months later problem reoccurred. Causing the vehicle to shake. Mr the consumer also stated that the vehicle would vibrate violently whenever brakes were applied-new rotors installed, which were suppose to fix the problem, and a year later the problem happened again, more severely. There's a shimmy in the front wheels when braking-per invoice.
