HUGE AMOUNT OF BRAKE DUST ON FRONT WHEELS HAPPENING IN NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS . *AK
EXCESSIVE ACCUMULATION OF BRAKE DUST WAS FOUND ON THE ALUMINUM WHEELS. THERE' IS TSB 10004901 ON THIS ISSUE, AND THE MANUFACTURER HAS A KIT THAT THE CONSUMER CAN PURCHASE FOR $230.00 PLUS INSTALLATION. THE KIT IS NOT GUARANTEED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, BUT IT WILL REDUCE THE DUST ACCUMULATION, PER THE DEALERSHIP.*AK *NM
MASSIVE BRAKE DUST ACCUMULATION. *AK
MY 2004 FORD EXPEDITION IS 31 DAYS OLD AND HAS EXCESSIVE BRAKE WEAR, WHICH I CONSIDER A SAFETY ISSUE. THE BRAKE DUST, IN LESS THAN TWO THOUSAND MILES, IS CAKED ON THE FRONT WHEELS AND EXTENDS THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE RUNNING BOARDS ON EACH SIDE. THE AMOUNT OF BRAKE DUST COVERING THE WHEELS AND RUNNING BOARDS INDICATES EXCESSIVE WEAR OF THE BRAKE PADS. I AM GREATLY CONCERNED THAT THE BRAKES WILL FAIL PREMATURELY. FORD MOTOR COMPANY DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS AN ISSUE.*AK
