Hi,
I was driving my dad's '08 Aero Wagon this past weekend, he has been complaining that the brakes are weaker than on his older '02 Audi A6. After driving it, I must agree that they are weak, and feel much weaker than those on my '04 9-5 Aero. Did GM do something to the brakes on the newer 9-5s? My dad's car has less than 15,000 miles, wear shouldn't be an issue, I would think.
As an aside, the dealer just charged him $68 for 1 wiper blade!!! And over $200 for an oil change!!! They don't sell cars anymore, so they need to make it up in the shop one supposes... outrageous!!!
