HI, I HAVE REPLACED MY BRAKES LATE LAST YEAR BECAUSE THE BRAKES DON'T ENGAGE RIGHT. EVEN AFTER I REPLACED MY BRAKES, I STILL HAVE TROUBLE WITH THE BRAKES. LAST WEEK, I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK WITH MY SON IN MY CAR AND SOMEONE CUT ME OFF WITH A TURN INTO A SCHOOL. I HIT MY BRAKES REALLY HARD, BUT IT WAS SKIDDING/SLIDING. I TOOK MY CAR IN AGAIN FOR BRAKES CHECK AND LIKE LAST TIME, I WAS TOLD MY BRAKES WERE FINE. I ASKED THE MECHANIC WHY WAS MY CAR SLIDING/SKIDDING. MY CAR WAS DIAGNOSED WITH SHOCK/SUSPENSION ISSUE. WHICH I HAVE HAD ALL ALONG, BUT DIDN'T KNOW IT CAUSED MY BRAKES TO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I DRIVE VERY SHORT DISTANT TO WORK AND HOME AND I DO NOT ABUSE MY CAR, HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE. I WOULD LIKE AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS ISSUE, IT IS SAFETY SINCE THE CAR DOESN'T BRAKE PROPERLY.

WHILE AT THE SERVICE CENTER, THE BRAKES WERE SERVICED AND A NEW SET OF TIRES WERE RECOMMENDED BECAUSE THEY WERE CUPPING. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER ESTABLISHMENT TO HAVE THE TIRES INSPECTED. FIRESTONE, INFORMED THE CONSUMER THE LEFT FRONT AND REAR TOW WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND THEY ADJUSTED THE LEFT FRONT TO CORRECT IT, BUT INFORMED HIM, THEY COULD NOT MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENT FOR THE REAR, AS THERE WAS NO GUARANTEE GIVEN THAT THE ALIGNMENT ISSUE WAS THE CAUSE OF THE CUPPING. WITHIN A WEEK OF HAVING THE NEW WATER PUMP INSTALLED, THE CONSUMER BEGAN TO HEAR A CLICKING SOUND FROM UNDER THE HOOD, SO HE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE REPAIR SHOP, TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE CLICKING SOUND. AN INSPECTION REVEALED THE A/C COMPRESSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.
