“Absolutely ZERO service parts availability for over a year now for the REAR BRAKE SYSTEM. no Rotors, brake pads, caliper assemblies from any RAM dealer in the US.

“This is a brand new purchased vehicle on April 18. I experienced complete brake failure was able to get off the interstate and the brakes vibrated would smash down as vibrating and then ground against metal is what it sounded like when I would press.

“Brakes failed (for the 4th or 5th time) while driving on the highway after approximately two hours.

We were only going around 10-20 MPH as we were coming to a red light and could not stop. We requested an investigation into the source of the issue as it should not be out fault that a brand new car's breaks failed. Chrysler corporate sent someone to look at the van. …”
