| 2008 | SERVICE BRAKES | I JUST HAD MY FRONT BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS REPLACED. I HAD THEM REPLACED ON 2/14/2012. MY REAR ROTORS AND PADS ARE OK, BUT NEED TO BE REPLACED SOON. I HAD THEM REPLACED LESS THAN A YEAR AGO. I HAVE SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET THIS SAME ISSUE FOR MY YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL, AND I FOUND HUNDREDS UPON HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL THE BRAKE SYSTEM...ONE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO REPLACE THE BRAKES AND ROTORS EVERY YEAR. *TR |
