How are we supposed to know? How about looking in the glove box for an rpo code. Look for something like GU4 GU7 GT4, etc. I forget what they are, but those are what come to mind off the top of my head.

actually something was wrong with the brakes after 500 kms and everytime i tell them about it they say its normal but if i was speeding i cant stop the car its like keeps rubbing on the disk. i took it to another dealer and they changed the brake pads and did all the work that is needed for the car
