Example complaints

“Rear brakes worn out including rotors at 21,000 miles. Rear calipers stick and stay on as if parking brake was engaged. Dealer said its common because of winter. My first vehicle ever to have calipers stick because of winter. Funny though this was not an issue in the winter. Only now after I declined to have them fix my brakes and it's 90 f outside.”
NHTSA complaint #10405739, filed 2011-06, 20,000 miles“The front rotors of my vehicle have to be resurfaced after only 12,500 miles. The service manager told me chrysler had a notice about the rear ones as well and he would take care of those as well. This does not seem like something that should be happening with a brand new vehicle. I am very concerned about this.”
NHTSA complaint #10335582, filed 2010-06, 12,500 miles“Approximately three months ago, we started to notice a vibration when using the brakes. Receive a notice from chrysler in july stating some town and country vans brake pads and or rotors may prematurely failed. Car had about 35,500 miles on it when we took it to the chrysler dealer last month to check the brakes. Front and back brake pads had to be replaced, rotors only needed to be turned according to dealer. However, vibration still occurs when braking.”
NHTSA complaint #10352580, filed 2010-08, 30,500 miles“2009 chrysler town and country. I have less then 14k on my van and have had the rotors replaced twice already. I have another appointment scheduled next week for them to be serviced again.”
NHTSA complaint #10340759, filed 2010-06, 3,562 miles“Our chrysler town and country is a 2009. We noticed the brakes started making noise after the vehicle was at the dealership because the air conditioning was not working. The brakes are now starting to grind so we took the vehicle to an independent garage. The mechanic said that he has never seen anything like it. Our rear brake hose system is blown as well as the calipers are shot. He said this seems very odd given the vehicle is a 2009 and a front wheel drive. It's getting worse and starting to make noise even when the brakes are not in use.”
