1. HAVE HAD BRAKES REPLACED AND ROTORS RECALIBRATED TWICE AND STILL HAVE VIBRATION UPON BRAKING. DEALERSHIP SAYS I'M NOT BRAKING PROPERLY AND CAUSING BRAKES TO OVERHEAT, WHICH CAUSING ROTORS TO WARP. I'VE BEEN BRAKING THE SAME WAY FOR 35 YEARS AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. 2. AIR CONDITIONER STILL DOES NOT COOL PROPERLY AND HAS BEEN IN SHOP SEVERAL TIMES. DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE IS A LEAK IN THE A/C COOLANT, BUT THEY CANNOT FIND IT. 3. CAR CONTINUALLY STUTTERS AT HIGH SPEEDS, DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED NUMEROUS PARTS, BUT PROBLEM PERSISTS. 4.
