ELF, how many miles on the car?
Neither my Z06 or my 98 C-5 brakes pull to one side or the other. Did you break them in gently?

Any other members comments ???

It happened to me once in 2200 miles and that was this week.

Am I seeing something normal or unusual with the brakes? First time I hit the pedal the car may pull to the left or the right. after that it doen"t seem to do it. When it does happen it not a strong pull but enough to let you know.

This is pretty normal. My 97 used to do it, too. Once the brakes get warm, they should pull evenly. It was most noticable during light breaking. BTW, welcome to the forum.

I have not had any pulling of the brakes in the first 2000 miles.

I have hot spots all over both front rotors and if you pull the e-brake at speed it growls horribly.

This used to happen to me with my 00 coupe. It hasn't happened with the Z yet. Not to worry........

You might check with Ken Fichtner's page, the Corvette Forum, and ask him about factory warrenty problems!

He is well in the know, and might can advise you better.

If all else faile check out Ken's page for the "C5R" rotors and pads or new ceramic pads.

Hot spots, warppage, you name it. Dealer turned the rotors at 6k miles, they're starting to warp again at 11k. I tried to get them to replace the rotors and pads, but Chevrolet refused. Anyone have any ideas?
