Well this SUCKS!!!!!!

Ok, exactly 18 mins after we bought the 94 Formula. SHE had a encounter with a curb on the rear pass rim. Rim was trashed, got another rim but its bent but drivable. Something happened when the hit happened. Something made that pass rear brake wear ALOT faster then it should. Started to have metal from behind pad diging into the rotor. Got a new rotor and pads thinging that the shim or somethin wasnt right after the hit. Everything went back in was fine for a few weeks. Now tonight on the way home from the lake the same thing started to happen. Its the metal from behind where the pad USED to be diging into the new rotor. Any ideas? possible warped rotor again? what else?

Re: Well this SUCKS!!!!!!

could you have bent an axle or axle shaft? when I bought mine, I found this and had it replaced under warranty.

New car, more power, and the back end wanted to come around. So it got away from you and something jumped infront of you=a bent axle and more damage then you like to admit. Now that Sucks from your inexperienced driving skills. Now that was a expensive driving lesson for you.

I am not the the one being nasty now. Just take it to a shop and get it fixed. its not a small change type repair that can get done by reading Posts.
It Sucks like you said so bite the bullet its going to cost you big bucks. .

Big Bucks? umm no. Its called pull it into the garage and do it yourself. I had figured that it was a bent axle but wanted others opinions before i went a spent money on another one. you act like this is my first car or somethin. You shouldnt assume so much man. Only thing i have EVER taken my car to a shop for is alignment. EVERYTHING else i do myself.
