SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
WITH LESS THAN 12000 MILES THE STEERING WHEEL AND FRONT END WOULD SHAKE UPON APPLYING PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES. THE JEEP WAS TAKEN IN AND "ROTORS WERE ADJUSTED." THIS TOOK CARE OF THE PROBLEM UNTIL APPROXIMATELY 48000 MILES WHERE THE DEALER REPORTED AN "ENGINEERING DEFECT" WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND THAT A TEMPORARY FIX FOR $129.00 COULD BE DONE, BUT THEY SAID I WOULD BE BACK IN AFTER 10,000 MILES SO I FELT I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO HAVE THEM INSTALL THE NEW CALIPER, BRAKE AND ROTOR SYSTEM FOR A COST TO ME OF $420.00. THE BRAKE PADS WERE NOT WORN AND THESE MILES WERE HIGHWAY MILES. THIS CALIPER/ROTOR SYSTEM SHOULD BE RECALLED DUE TO THE DESIGN DEFECT AND NOT CHARGED TO THE CONSUMER. *JB

DT: THE CONTACT STATED THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT AS THOUGH IT WAS PULSATING. THERE WAS 15,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE BRAKE PADS AND CUT THE ROTORS. AT 20,600 MILES THE PULSATION RETURNED. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP. *AK
