SUV breaks have been an issue, ever since the 2022 May inspection, in which Rotors and Pads were replaced. Just the fronts were replaced.

The brakes started sqeaking at first, and then the car started to shake mildly when breaking. This eventually got worse.

The car was taken to the shop sometime around September, and the Rotors were sanded down. This fixed the issue for about a month.

The brakes being squeaking again. The car was taken to the shop again, but they didn’t hear it when taking it for a test drive.

Car started shaking again.

I didn’t bring it up during the May inspection in 23. The Rotors were then replaced around June of 23.

The car has started to squeak again when breaking, but only at around 50 mph or above.

    1. Brakes. Rotors.

    2. Its an SUV, so the weight it needs to stop is higher than a small car. People who don’t know how to drive heavier cars cook brakes pretty easily on them.

    3. Is she a lead-foot? Ride the brakes downhill? Two-footed driver? Is she an attentive driver, or does she constantly get distracted doing other things like makeup? Is she constantly speeding?

      1. Thank you, my spelling ain’t the best

      2. She had the SUV for maybe three years before this started happening, and it was bought used.

      3. She’s a slower driver, and doesn’t ride or slam the brakes, at least when I’m with her. There are occasions when she’s stuck in stop and go traffic coming home from work, which probably puts more wear on them
