Trust me when I say your service department is better than my recent experience at Bell Lexus. I hope all is resolved for you. Sounds like something that can be resolved pretty easily though

This story sounds like a setup to me. Who would expect replacement of a brand new car because the brakes squeak on first application? My brakes make a noise every morning on first application, it is just normal and is heard on every car with disc brakes. I would get worried if the brakes shuddered at highway speed since that would indicate warped rotors. This poster's wife is totally unrealistic and if I were the selling dealership I would encourage her to buy a BMW or M-B since she will be a big pain throughout the ownership period!

Wow! A new car for squeaky brakes?

@OP...not to be mean but dang, how much noise did your wife make for the dealer to just say it's not worth hearing her whine? Let's just give her a new car and get her our of our hair. That must have been some serious pushing around.

I think the 1st and several subsequent points have been made. I don't see any further point for this thread to stay open.

Welcome to the forum George. We hope to hear more from you and the good service from the dealer who seems to be taking good care of you.
