NHTSA complaint #11128066, filed 2018-09, 60,000 miles“The rear brakes (both) of my 2002 Voyager failed - was making loud mechanical noise, when the parking brake is released it did not release the brake (the car will not move for few minutes), make loud noise while braking. The dealer told me ice and water got inside the brake drums and frozen the pads, eventually the whole brake system failed.
