This is the fourth dodge caravan I have leased since 1997 and all 4 of them needed front rotors replaced (did pads too) between 20,000 and 34,000 kms. because of brake pedal pulsation. The pulsation was caused by intense build-up of rust on the rotors, most of which was on the inside! I changed the pads and rotors on this one at about 34,000 kms. and now have 79,000 on it and no pulsation and still good brakes!
I buy the best pads and rotors I can buy at my parts supplier (Parry Automotive, Orillia) and I get lifetime warranty on the parts. I am a licensed mechanic and I repair farm tractors and equipment for a full time job and I run a small repair business at home fixing cars so installation is no prob. My dealer told me that brakes are a wear item so there is no warranty, but after reading some other complaints where the dealer actually covvered the parts, I will look into this with Chrysler head office! I believe this is a caravan problem that Chrysler has to address! Read my next complaint about the rear brakes!!
