BRAKES MAKE A HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAKING SOUND WHEN I BRAKE. THE CAR REQUIRES ALOT OF BRAKING TIME & DISTANCE TO STOP - IT DOESN'T STOP QUICKLY. THE CAR HAS DIED ON 4 OCCASIONS. THREE TIMES WERE AT RED LIGHTS, THE FOURTH I WAS GOING ABOUT 35 MILES AN HOUR. I NOTIFED THE NEAREST DEALER (IN NORCO CALIFORNIA). THE MANAGER OF THE REPAIR SHOP HAD ME BRING THE CAR IN (AN HOUR DRIVE) & THEN SAID HE WAS TOO BUSY TO LOOK AT MY CAR WHEN I ARRIVED. I ASKED IF I COULD LEAVE IT & TAKE A REPLACEMENT OR RENTAL CAR UNTIL HE HAD TIME TO INSPECT THE CAR. HE SAID NO, I SHOULD JUST BRING IT BACK ANOTHER DAY.

I HAD A AFTER MARKET ACCESSORY ADDED TO THE CAR. HOWEVER WHEN PROBLEM OCCURRED I HAD THE ACCESSORY DISCONNECTED SO WE COULD FIND THE TRUE PROBLEM. DEALER DID REPLACE THE ACTUATOR AND THAT TEMPORILY FIXED THE PROBLEM. MY BRAKES SQUEAK AND THE DEALER SAID THAT THEY BUILD UP A THIN LAYER OF RUST WHEN THE CAR SITS EVEN FOR A SHORT TIME. THUS CAUSING THE SQUEAKS. IF THIS IS TRUE WHY DON'T YOU HEAR EVERY CAR SQUEAK AS THEY STOP AT A LIGHT?
