What's with this? Dealer told me this is normal wear and tear. Grinding noise appeared at 12,000 miles and I was incredulous that it could be metal on metal, but is was and dealer said this was the way the car was designed: to have most braking done with rear brakes. Come on! Anyone have similar problem and if so did you get any satisfaction out of the dealer? Why did Saab design this car with different pad material in front and back, by the way?
Front brakes look new.
Thanks in advance.
