Description of the problem	At first my caravan started eating brake pads, changing them approx every 6-8 months... Then, it started shimmying when brakes were applied at a high rate of speed or going down a steep grade... I have changed rotors 3 times and also have changed calipers & brake lines.... It has been 6 months since and it is starting to shimmy and now it feels like the brake pedal is going farther to the floor, brake fluid checks out fine... I am starting to feel afraid or scared that the brakes may fail.... Current mileage is 94000.... From searching the internet, it seems there are alot of brake issues with the caravan.
