Got the OEM brakes installed not too long ago and they’re definitely worth the install. Two year warranty with them at VW.
Looks like a good project. I would be concerned about what you described about the brakes. It could be alot of different things causing that issue.
Make certain your kiddo has GOOD brakes and tires.
My 2011 2.5 has 220,000 miles on it and it is the most reliable car I’ve owned yet. I bought it used with 45k miles and I have only replaced the tires once, the brake pads once, one engine mount, all belts including timing, and that’s pretty much it. The transmission still shifts pretty smoothly.
I took apart my fronts on my 2016 Mazda at 50k and was surprised that they were still at 50%.
Pacific Mazda has been okay; they only pushed an unnecessary break maintenance so far.
I have had the Tiguan SEL Turbo for a few weeks now. I was reversing out of a parking spot and the brakes locked up thinking something was behind me. Not a soft brake, I thought I backed up into someone. No car or person there? Did it twice and never again.
The OEM brakes are a little meh as I’ve got the same noise issue as a lot of other Atlas owners have experienced.
The only thing wrong with them are they are too soft, organic pads. Switch to a metallic pad.
Secondly, defective Rear Disk Brake Pads that wore out on a majority of 22` Taos which was a covered rear Brake replacement if it was under 2ydears and 24 months. I just missed the cut-off and was$700 poorer.
