Consumer Description

REAR BRAKES WORN OUT, SCRAPING METAL. CALLED DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNDER WARRANTY. I'VE BEEN A MECHANIC FOR OVER 40 YEARS AND THIS IS JUST PLAIN EQUIPMENT FAILURE. THE CALIPERS ARE BAD AND CHRYSLER WILL NOT ADMIT IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT TO PAY FOR A RECALL. VERY DISSATISFIED WITH VEHICLE BECAUSE THE BRAKES NEED REPLACING AGAIN AT 44000 MILES. *TR
