Town & Country

  • 44,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

The contact owns a 2009 Chrysler Town and country. While driving approximately 65 mph with the cruise control activated, the contact depressed the brake pedal but the vehicle did not respond. The contact stopped the vehicle and after depressing the brakes numerous times, he was able to get the brakes to release. The contact smelled a burning odor and heard a whistling sound coming from the rear of the vehicle. The failure occurred approximately four times at different speeds. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for diagnostics. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 44,000.

Town & Country 6-cyl

  • 6,000 miles
I have had the front brakes replace by Chrysler 3 time since June 2009 and the rotor once. I am currently experiencing a massive shutter when I apply the brakes at highway speeds (very dangerous). I contacted Chrysler and they told me the rotors are probably warped (again) and that they are no longer covered under warranty. I just had them done before 36K and now I'm at 50K. I purchased new wagner rotor and ceramic brake pads and installed them myself. First time out the shutter is still there. I contacted Chrysler again and told them the new equipment (per their recommendation) did not work. They told me to bring it in and for $95 they will try to figure out what is wrong. Surfing the internet and NHTSA info it sounds like a ton of people are having similar issues and there is no help from Chrysler or no recalls on the braking system. This system is dangerous and someone needs to step up and fix it. I have 2 small kids and I am afraid of drive/stopping this vehicle. The shuttering effects you ability to steer when trying to slow down to take an exit ramp on a highway. Someone out there help!!
