2000 GMC SAVANA VAN BRAKE ROTOR FAILED. THE ROTOR WAS A REPLACEMENT & NEVER WAS TURNED. THE WEAR INDICATORS NEVER SQUEALED PRIOR TO FAILURE. THIS BRAKE ROTOR WAS PURCHASED & INSTALLED BY AN AUTHORIZED GMC DEALERSHIP. I WAS NEAR A TIRE SHOP WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AND PAID $300 TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED MYSELF. GMC HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS ENGINEERING PROBLEM FOR YEARS AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO PROTECT CONSUMERS & OTHER DRIVERS FROM PREMATURE ROTOR FAILURE. *TR

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
