Description of the problem	The brakes get really hot and overheat all the time. Gas mileage very low 13 miles to the gallon highway. At 6800 miles front brakes went into rotors without any warning, took to dealership they replaced pads and resurfaced rotors. They gave me know explanation what caused this. Still had problems took it in again in june told them something was still wrong they said they checked nothing wrong. About two weeks ago noise from back brakes took it in got a estimate they said something really mess up in the brake system need whole brake job calibers etc. Back tires need to be replaced radiator cap leaking 3500. 00 to fix. 15200 miles on car declared unsafe to drive. Took it back to dealership today they said my 12000 mile brake warranty was up i would have to pay for repairs. Left car they called me and said the back brakes where getting really hot burned up stated i must be driving with parking brake on need new pads front and back it was going to cost like 600 dollars. Said don't know why fuel mileage was so poor that my driving habits where causing brakes to wear out fast. The radiator cap was leaking bad replaced that. Told them i was going to get a third opinion because i didn't believe it was due to my driving habits. Supposed to pick up today came home research complaints on dodge caravan 2008. Was looking to file complaint on dealership and car and to see what my options where since i felt i was getting mistreated and what the laws where since i felt the car was a lemon.
