What owners wrote
The rear brakes squeaked excessively when braking. The dealer advised that the problem was caused by the federal government's change in the way manufacturers make brake shoes and were unable to remedy the problem. The consumer is very concerned about the effectiveness of the brakes. *nlm
The rear brakes have been squeaking.I have had them checked by the dealer 3 times and each time I was told they were fine.now they have continued to squeak and now need to be replaced.I am concerned about the safety of the manufacured brake pads.
