From your post, it sounds like yours could be included in this timeframe.
Print this out, take it to the dealer, and have them check it out.
Best of luck - I hope this solves your mystery!

possessed HHR
Hey Guys & Gals,
I'm new to the forum. I've only had my HHR for 5 days now, but no problems yet. I guess any machine with all of the electronic wizardry that all modern machines have they're bound to had something go weird sometimes. I had a Mazda 929 that had a episode on me and the radio started changing stations by itself, the tranny started shifting into different gears at the wrong time, and then it just quit running! It turned out to be the alternator was bad, causing a low voltage condition, and the ECM went crazy trying to figure out what to do! I also own a 2001 Harley Davidson Elecraglide that is fuel injected and it got kinda weird on me one time. I took it to the dealer and they plugged it into their computer and the computer told it to quit doing that and it did! Sometimes it kinda makes ya miss the old 55 Chevy!

post I had to comment.
My Sport Red HHR needed front pads at around 12,300 miles. I do paper
delivery with that one so I expected quicker brake wear, although not
as quick as 12,300. By the way ... it was covered under warranty.
Tuesday, on my wifes' Sunburst Orange HHR, the brakes let go as well.
She does 95% highway driving. Mileage is just over 15,000. The Chevy
dealership called yesterday ... it needs new pads AND new rotors. Chevy
Roadside Service did the tow, Chevy is paying for the rental car (2 days
probably as parts weren't available) and again, all the work is covered
under waranty. Seems odd, 2 different HHR's, 2 different driving styles
and both cars having brake issues well before brake pads should reasonably
wear. Didn't know if anyone else had brake problems
