I purchased a 2008 chevrolet hhr in 2009 with 40,000 miles on it. i noticed braking/shaking problem. dealer fixed it the day after i bought it. under 500 miles later, braking/shaking starts again. different dealer turns rotors two more times. pads are wearing evenly, so the dealer mechanic advised me to purchase after-market rotors as the oem do not appear to resist warping very well. when the dealer's mechanic recommends putting on a non-dealer part, there has got to be something wrong with the engineering of the car or the integrity of the metal in the rotors. there are many complaints on people turning and re-turning these rotors all over the web, ultimately leading them to replace with non-gm parts. *kb
