2008 Braun Town & Country Brakes Problems

“The brakes on our 2008 chrysler town and country van need to be replaced much more often than is typically necessary. Usually the pads and rotors need replacing. The front brakes need replacing every 15-18k miles. The van is not driven under harsh conditions as it is primarily driven by my wife to take the kids to school and for her to go to work.”

“2008 chrysler town and country radiator defect at 28000 miles rotors and calipers needed to be replaced twice within 15000 miles (from 15k to 30k miles on vehicle). Brakes have been done 3 times and are in need of a new set less than 1500 miles since last new set. I damaged the back end of my t+c because the brakes failed to stop; luckily, my children weren't in the car. …”

“I had to have new brakes twice already. It seemed pretty odd that is was at 18,000 and then again exactly 18k later at 36,000 miles. After reading other complaints I realize I am not imagining this. These brakes were not made to last. For $27k that I paid for this new van with all kinds of bells and whistles, I didn't think the brakes would be the thing that continued to be a problem.”

“2008 chrysler Town & Country, 26,500 miles. I was driving down the highway and when I parked my vehicle there was smoke coming from the drivers side rear brakes. The brakes had been stuck on for an unknown amount of miles. There was excessive heat and smoke coming from the area which could have LED to a possible fire. I took it to the dealer and they told me there was no warranty or recall for this problem.”

“2008 chrysler town and country front and rear brakes worn out at 30,000 miles. Front rotors worn out at 30000 miles and had to pay $100 deductible to have replaced. Paid out of pocket to have rear brakes replaced. All of my other vehicles I have gone over 100,000 miles on rear brakes and 100,000 miles on the rotors. I have never had front brakes that needed to be replaced before 60,000 miles.”
