What owners are reporting 1 most recent
Rotors are warped per maintenance check which I believe is from the emergency breaking. 43400 miles from leisurely driving and brake pads are still good. When I'm driving downhill and apply breaks, car starts to vibrate. Then at times of high speed of 70-75 the blind spot warning light comes on and the side sensors stay on until I come to a complete stop.
