I just had a problem with my rear brakes. It seemed that I had a "crunching" noise from my right rear wheel when I applied the brakes. I looked at it and noticed the rotor was all chewed up and gouged.
I took it to the dealer and he told me the following: the low-wear sensors for the pads are only on one side of the car and it was just unfortunate that the pad that wore out was on the other side - the noise was metal on metal and I have to pay for a new rotor.
This sounds odd and I feel that this should be a warranty issue (35,000 miles).
Does anyone have a similar experience? Do I have a leg to stand on in fighting this?
Thanks.
