The front wheel rotors were "pitted and rusted." The consumer consulted three different mechanics until one finally told him the problem was a result of "cheap materials."

Vehicle wheel rotors rusted. The front wheel rotors were "pitted and rusted" prematurely, and consumer received contradicting answers as to why and how this could happen with 27121 miles on the vehicle.

The front rotors rusted and the pads wore out before 50000 miles. The dealer informed the consumer the problem was due to normal use.

Since April 2000 I have experience probs with front and rear brakes. It began clicking in the rear, I was told by dlr that rotors needed to be replaced. I paid for the replacements. 2 weeks later clicking began again, louder that time. Dlr kept veh sd they couldn't locate prob. So they cleaned brakes and turned rotors. Clicking then began in front of vehicle, only when stopping, and excessive grinding sound began and the veh would wobble when attempting to stop. Dlr adv that it was due to heat"??? so the rotors were maintenanced again. Clicking started again about a month later and continues when stopping as well as a sound of fluid "swishing" and grinding at halt. I am very concerned that the dealership is unable to locate the problem. They keep returning an unsafe vehicle, I am returning to service tomorrow and hopefully will be successful in obtaining full repairs. Chrysler was contacted and basically has been no help. What is the next step if problem continues"

While driving could step on the brakes pedal to stop and brakes will start making noise, and will skip. Rotors had to be fixed four times.

Consumer was traveling about 35mph on highway and went to apply brakes and there was a loud streaking noise. He took vehicle to the dealership. Mechanic told him that brakes and rotors were bad. Dealership replaced the brakes. The customer states that recall on rotors and brakes is over due because the problem had existed and the manufacturer is aware of it since 1996.
