So my wife has a 2003 Grand Am and I'm having some problems with one of her front brakes. I know many of the people on here used to be GA owners so I'm turning to you.
Problem: The inside pad of her front driver's side brakes wears alot quicker than the others. There is a slight pull to that side also. Been to the dealer when it was under warrenty but they told me nothing was wrong. Been to two dealers about 4 or 5 times on this issue. They keep telling me that the slides are going back and forth okay and they can't find a problem.
My issue is that this has been doing this since we bought the car new. I don't think that one pad should wear down to the metal and the other 3 on the front end still have 1/2 inch or more on them. All wear is even across all pads so the pads are not cocked. Put two sets of new rotors on puls the factory ones. Changes brakes about 6 times in the 70,000mi we've put on. Also had it aligned.
I'm toying with the idea of just replacing both front calipers but I thought I'd throw it out to you.
