Has anyone else noticed this? After running the Max hard and having to come to a hard stop or slow down - the brakes/car seem to vibrate. I'm not talking about the anti-lock during braking but - after running hard, my max on a hard slowdown seems to vibrate HARD & seems to have little stopping ability. I don't know if the antilock mechanism is still engaged or not engaged or what, any one else expeirence this?

Check the STICKY post on Technical Service Bulletins. It explains the problem and what you need to tell the dealer to do.

It'll be back.. trust me...

Anyone know how many times one can go back to get the rotors turned before they start charging for this problem?

Warped at 10K.. warped again at 20K
