| 74000 mi | I feel as though the brakes have always been soft on this car. And from time to time I have them checked. Nothing was wrong. |
| 60000 mi US $120 |
Rust build up on rear pads caused them to jam and drag, causing uneven wear and some noise. Cleaned up calipers, replaced rear pads. Initial dealer estimate was $1200 to replace calipers and rotors and pads entirely(!!) |
| 81000 mi US $400 |
Needed new brakes and rotors |
| 70000 mi US $400 |
Front rotors and pads replaced. Brake lines flushed |
| 64600 mi | Right rear caliper was sticking causing uneven brake wear |
| 36925 mi | Noticed brake squeal on front passenger side when either braking lightly or turning. Removed all caliper components on both front wheels, then lubricated all mating surfaces with Permatex Anti-Seize compound. Found dried material (road concrete?) on squeaking side caliper mounting bracket. Resolved. |
| 38987 mi | Performed rear brake service. Extremely lop-sided wear on left driver-side rear pad. Rotor and opposing pad appeared to be normal. Applied anti-seize compound to all mating surfaces. Slide pins seem to be acting normally. Performed same maintenance on passenger side, which had normal and even wear. Purchased new rotor and pad kit. Will create another entry for replacement. |
| 63000 mi US $1200 |
Replaced brake pads and rotors |
| 55000 mi US $80 |
Premature wear, due to cocking of left rear brake pad which scored rotor. Seems like rust caused pad tightness in the bracket. I have seen this before. Even so, they did have 57k miles on them. |
| 74000 mi US $120 |
Left rear caliper failed; would not retract which burned pads to the metal. Replaced caliper and pads. |
