I hate my drum brakes. The front disk are ok, but they have really weird wear pattern. It's messed up. As for the DRUMS, they dont do anything. I can pull up my handbrake at like 20km/h and It will need like 60ft to stop lol it might be an exaggeration but I just hate them.
The first week I had the car my drum brakes made a weird ass grinding noise when I hit the brakes. I was going to bring it into the dealer but it went away. One really strange thing that happened to me (only once tho) is I was coming down a hill (thank god I wasn't going fast) and my brakes completly failed.
I pumped them sooo many times but I got nothing but a pedal to the floor (and yes it was the brake pedal). I had to use my damn handbrake to stop and downshift at the same time i stopped right on the stop sign line, if i went any further I woulda got nailed by an SUV. As soon as i stopped I pumped my brakes again and they worked fine........no understanding why it happened. I looked under my car there and there was no brake fluid leaking or anything. Never had a problem with grinding or failer again.....well yet anyways.
