Consumer Description

BRAKES ON 99 DURANGO DO NOT WORK AT TIMES. OTHER TIMES THE BRAKES WORK FINE. IT SEEMS THAT WHEN THE ROAD IS WET OR HIGH HUMIDITY THE BRAKES DO NOT WORK. IT IS A VERY SCARY FEELING TO HIT THE BRAKES AND NOT HAVE ANY RESPONSE. AFTER A 1 TO 2 SECOND DELAY THE BRAKES FINALLY ENGAGE. I HAVE HAD TO SWERVE TO THE SHOULDER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHEN TRYING TO STOP ON THE FREEWAY SO AS TO NOT HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE REPLACED THE BRAKES AND ROTORS AT MY COST AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THAT YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THE BRAKES WILL WORK AND WHEN THEY WILL NOT. I AM NOT A MECHANIC, BUT I WONDER IF IT IS IN THE ABS SYSTEM. READING THIS FORUM IT APPEARS THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEMS. *CB
