 The consumer stated that the vehicle was making noises in the front drivers side, and sounded like it was coming from the wheels, and was told by someone that it was the wheel bearings. the consumer had taken the vehicle in to the dealer for repairs, thinking they replaced them. an hour later after pick up, the consumer heard the noise again. the consumer had taken the vehicle in and was told that the rotors were dragging something. she feels that the rotors are defective for them to be replaced already, and feels that she shouldn't have to pay for the rotors. *scc *dt
