2004 DODGE INTREPID Service Brakes Problems

WE ARE WRITING TO LET YOU KNOW OF A MAJOR CAR FIRE THAT OCCURRED IN OUR DODGE INTREPID. THE DRIVER WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. THE HOT/COLD NEEDLE BEGAN MOVING UP AND DOWN. THEN THE BRAKES GAVE OUT. THEN, THE POWER STEERING GAVE OUT. THE CAR STARTED SMOKING PRODUCING BLACK CHEMICAL SMOKE INTO THE CABIN. THEN, FIRE STARTED SHOOTING OUT OF THE VENTS. WITH NO BRAKES AND FIRE AND SMOKE INTO THE CAR, THE DRIVER WAS FORCED TO JUMP OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND ROLL ONTO THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE WITH THE CAR STILL GOING 30-40 MPH. THE DRIVER WAS IN EXTREME DANGER INSIDE THE CAR AND OBVIOUSLY LAYING ON THE INTERSTATE AS WELL. THE CAR ENDED UP IN THE DITCH WHILE COMPLETELY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. HE WAS ABLE TO GET ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. THEY DETERMINED THE...

I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50MPH AND STARTED SLOWING DOWN TO GET ON THE FREEWAY DURING RUSH HOUR. I HAD A HARD TIME BRAKING AND NOTICE THE ACCELERATOR WAS STUCK. THE CAR WAS STILL ACCELERATING EVEN WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES. I HAD TO PUSH AS HARD AS I COULD ON THE BRAKES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN.

I SUSPECT A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH CLASS II AUTO DEALER SHAMROCK MOTORS, THE INSPECTION OVERLOOKED THE BRAKE PROBLEM. T. TIRES OF CANNEL STREET SALEM FOUND ROTOR AND BRAKE NEEDED REPLACEMENT, WHEN FIXING A FLAT TIRE. WHEN APPROACHING NORM, OWNER, SHAMROCK MOTORS HE INSISTED THAT I AM A LIAR WITH MEMORY PROBLEMS. HE EXPLAINED PRE-SALES THAT DEMANDING CUSTOMERS WOULD HAVE THEIR CARS PURCHASED BACK RATHER THAN HONORING THE MASSACHUSETTS CONSUMER LAWS FOR THE CARS HE SOLD. THE MECHANICAL WORK IS DONE BY [XXX] OF CREEDON AUTO REPAIR ON CANAL STREET IN SALEM. [XXX] WAS INSISTENT THAT NO AUTO LEAVES HIS SHOP WITH SAFETY DEFECTS, YET THE BRAKES OF THIS AUTO ARE DEFECTIVE. AS A DISABLED ELDER, I BELIEVE THAT I AM THE...

I INSTALLED NEW REAR BRAKES, THEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR, I CHECK AROUND AND FOUND THAT THE STEEL BRAKE TUBING WAS RUSTED OUT AND SPRUNG A LEAK, REPAIRED TWO OF THE FOUR STEEL TUBINGS,NOW IT WAS LUCKY FOR ME I WAS IN THE BACK LAWN,. NOW IF I WAS ON THE ROAD WHO KNOWS WHAT COULD HAPPENED. HOW CAN A BIG COMPANY LIKE CHRYSLER GET AWAY WITH INSTALLING STEEL BRAKE LINES. IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL TO INSTALL SUCH A HAZARD.. I WANDER HOW MANY ACCIDENTS HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THIS AND IF ANY ONE DIED BECAUSE OF THIS, THEY SHOULD BE SUED BIG TIME TONY CAPUTO PS THIS IS ACCIDENT,MY SON CALLED ME AND SAID HIS RV CHRYSLER DID THE SAME THING.HE WAS ON THE ROAD, HE MANAGED TO GET HOME OK, THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF RECALL ON THIS, IT...
