“I have a 2003 Dodge durango I bought new. I now have 25000 miles on it. I have just had my brakes repaired for the third time. Rotors have been replaced along with brake pads. I also have a small collapse(at this time) in my gas tank. I have not been doing any offroad driving. There is a strange noise from the front end when I turn the wheel to the right or left. The dealership cannot hear any noises coming from the steering.”

NHTSA complaint #10100613, filed 2004-11, 5,000 miles

“2003 Dodge quadcab 5.7 hemi engine. Front brake rotors warped at 3400 miles and again at 9400 miles approximately. Dealer turned rotors first time and replaced rotor [same part nbr as original] the second time. Have read many posts on websites. It seems this is a widespread problem with the Dodge trucks 2002-2003 and daimler chrysler will not admit a problem exists and do not have a fix for the problem. I feel this is a safety issue and should be addressed by NHTSA. …”
