I have had brake and rotor problems when the car reached 14,000 miles, I then replaced the brakes, I have been experiencing severe pulsation when the brakes are applied, I replaced the front rotors at 28,000 miles, (at my expense) now the back rotors have begun the severe pulsation and will have to replace those rotors as well( at my expense). Since the warranty does not cover this. I used the emgergency brake once and couldn't disengage the brake and my car was stranded. I also experienced the emergency brakes freezing up which the dealership replaced under warranty. I was complaining to the dealership about smoke coming from the tire well from the drivers side back tire. On March 8, April 5th they resurfaced the back rotors, and told me if I continue to experience the severe pulsation the back rotors will need replaced. I have never encountered problems like this ever, I always purchase new cars for their warranty and Dodge's warranty is not up my standards.
