No if you go to http://auto.consumerguide.com/auto/u...fm/id/2398.htm

it even say the brakes. It only happens after alot of stopping and the humming starts when I apply the brake pedal, and it'* loud. Took it back to the dealer where I bought it. They put on new rotors for the back , I then phoned them and told them it is still doing it and wanted new pads. Waiting for an answer.

Hey all, just got my 2000 SSEi and love it. The more I drive it the more I'm happy with it.
But The brakes pulesate when stoping hard or soft. She'* only got 33K and I have the
balance of factory warranty till 36K. Do you think it'* rotors and pads or something deeper?. I really want to do a few mods to mine so if anyone here'* about anything good please pass on. One more thing the goodyear RS-A'* are about shot and since I live in wisconsin with lovely winters can anyone recomend a good tire for snow and dry summer without alot of summer road noise. I've seen alot of good things talked about Dunlop Winter Sport M2 on www.tirerack.com.
let me know what you think.
Love the site...john
