Description of the problem	I had a dodge grand caravan that i purchased there less than a year before with brake noise. My wife complained on previous occasions but was told nothing was wrong. When they finally looked at it vehicle was out of warranty period and they said the repair would not be covered. It cost us $471. 98 to replace front and back pads and resurface rotors. Was not informed that a tsb #05-006-08 had been issued. Part number recommended in tsb does not match part number on my invoice. Now they need replaced again a year later because they were making a squealing noise and overheating. When i took it in to a local mechanic, he said my left rear caliper is leaking and needs to be replaced. No calipers are available as they are on national backorder. I now have a van that is too dangerous to drive and no parts are available to repair it.
