What things have gone wrong with the car?

The main problem that I have got is with a vibration I feel through my seat mainly. I have taken the car back twice to the garage, prior to the second occasion I took one of the garage's technicians out with me. On both occasions I was told it's only wheels that need balancing, but alas I still have this vibration. This vibration is spoiling my driving and I wondered if any one else as had any similar problem?

Wiper blades are very noisy.

I have a problem with noisy brakes - it appears the noise comes from the rear brakes. The garage have had the car back to clean the brakes, but still they are very noisy. I feel for the miles this car has done this should not be happening.

General comments?

I am having the same problem. I have had the front brakes changed (rotors and brake pads) in the front. Now the brakes squeal all the time and it sounds like the back breaks.

My mechanic is a family friend and says that he cannot find anything wrong even though I have had them checked 3 times.
