Hey guys,
I just recently leased a brand new 2018 GT AWD 3 days ago and I've noticed a weird rhythmic thumping sound every time I brake from going ~20mph+. The thumping sound gets louder the harder I brake, especially if I'm going over 35mph+. At the moment I'm assuming that this is normal for break in? When I got the car it only had 25 miles on the odometer. Currently I have a total of 95 miles on it so far. There's no squeaking sound as if brake pads are worn out, I don't notice any vibrations through the steering wheel, and I think it seems to be coming from the rear passenger side mostly. Unfortunately, I won't be able to take it to the dealer until Thursday as I have work. Has anybody experienced anything like this or have any ideas? I'll call the dealership in the morning but I'm assuming they're going to want me to take it in anyway. In the meantime, I'm considering doing several more controlled hard brakes to see if that will get rid of it.
Thanks!
