Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IN 2002. CHRYSER PURCHASED IT BACK FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER DUE TO A BRAKE ISSUE. THE DEALER ASSURED ME THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. WITHIN SIX MONTHS THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY UPON BRAKING. THE DEALER RESURFACED THE ROTORS AND IT WAS OKAY FOR A FEW THOUSAND MILES, THEN BEGAN THE SEVERE SHAKING AGAIN. CHRYSLER AND THE DEALERSHIP HAVE REFUSED TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION. WE HAVE SINCE REPLACED THE ROTORS BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE PROBLEM HAS RE-OCCURED. I HAVE SINCE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT A BAD DESIGN THAT CONTINUES TO WARP THE ROTORS.
