Consumer Description

2009 DODGE JOURNEY SXT. IN THE YEAR I HAVE OWNED IT, I HAVE REPLACED BRAKES TWICE, AS RITE NOW I AM REPLACING THEM CAUSE THEY STARTED SQUEAKING A WEEK AGO AND TODAY THEY LOCKED UP. ALSO REPLACING ONE OF THE CALIPERS. ANY TIME I TAKE A HARD LEFT TURN, THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. I HAVE REPLACED THE TIRES ALREADY, AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR 2 AGAIN RECENTLY. ANY TIME I GO TO BRAKE WHEN GOING OVER 40 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY. I HAVE ALSO RECEIVED A RECALL FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR A WIRING HARNESS IN DRIVERS SIDE. WHEN I WENT IN TO DEALERSHIP, THEY PUT IT ON ORDER AND SAID THEY WOULD CALL WHEN IT CAME IN, BUT NEVER DID. THAT WAS 6 MONTHS AGO. *TR
