Consumer Description

I HAVE HEARD SOME TALK OF SOMEONE OUT IN CALIFORNIA, REFABRICTING THE FRONT BRAKE SYSTEM TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. IS THERE ANY OTHER TRUCK OWNERS THAT HAVE ALSO HEARD THIS? THE BRAKE CALIPERS ON THIS 1999 DODGE, ARE ALMOST HAVE THE SIZE OF THE BRAKE CALIPERS ON MY 1992. THE BRAKES PULL HARD TO THE RIGHT WHEN BRAKING AT ANY SPEED, ESPECIALLY DURING RAIN. VERY VERY DANGEROUS WHEN RAINY WEATHER. DEALER HAS BEEN VERY VERY GOOD WITH ME IN TRYING TO GET THIS FIXED. EVEN THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY WILL HAVE TO CONTACT CHRYSLER TOO. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO GET HURT, AND FILE A LAWSUIT TO MAKE ANYTHING HAPPEN? WHY WAIT TIL ONE IS DEAD, TAKE ACTION NOW, THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN!! LETS START A CHAT SECTION, GET EVERYONE TOGETHER!!!*AK
