Hi ,

Actually I really did not have problems with the car besides this minor plastic-interior harnes sounding issues.

As for brakes -yes, a pad was cracked. I replaced them on front wheels (put new ones on) and all is well now. A friend of mine did it for $20 bucks and some chit-chat while he was working.

I did notice that the rotors were slightly discolored so I don't know if that is normal or a sign of warping to come....
