Front rotors replaced twice. front pads replaced once. pads were not replaced with the first rotor replacement. for the second rotor replacement, i provided the replacement pads for them. brakes seemed ok, untill the last service visit explaining to them the brakes were making a creeking noise when applied at low speeds. since then, the brakes have been making a groaning/whineing noise when braking at high speed, with a noticeable brake pedal pulsation. i have not brought the vehicle back in to be checked. because the warranty period is over, and i don't think i should be charged for a problem that was never resolved. i do alot of driving for my business, and i find this vehicle to be dangerous to drive at this point. please help!*ak
