Typical brake symptoms owners report

Front brake pads and rotors wear or grind prematurely, sometimes described as pulling hard or making a grinding sound worse on wet roads.
Front calipers separate from backing plates due to a reported factory defect, enlarging mounting holes and requiring caliper, rotor, and backing plate replacement.
Rear calipers stick, crack, or break, causing uneven wear, a dragging brake, or the brake staying engaged.
Brake pedal feels unusually stiff after the vehicle sits for hours, especially right after starting.
A rear brake hose contacted the tire due to improper routing after caliper replacement, causing the pedal to go to the floor and reduced braking performance.
Applying the brake sometimes causes the pedal to vibrate along with an RPM increase and the vehicle stalling.
