We visited the girlfriends aunt down in Indianapolis last week for fall break. Her Vue was due for some new front brakes and the front axle shaft and bearing was failing. We could hear it on the interstate!
The mechanics had her convinced the brakes and rotors needed to be replaced together because of poor GM/ Honda engineering. I don't know enough about GM's (and Vues) to know whether that was true or not. She seems to have a good friendship between her and the guys at the dealer so I kept my mouth shut.
$1250 later it is fixed.. Apparently the shaft had to be sent away to get remanufactured because they no longer make them anymore? She was able to get it the following day nonetheless.
