| Description of the problem | I own a 2008 dodge grand caravan with 30k miles. I have already had to replace the front brake pads twice and the front brake rotors need replacing. I have found hundreds of complaints in the internet from customers with 2008 chrysler minivans that report their brake pads and rotors wearing out at very low mileages and without warning. This is a serious safety hazard that may have already resulted in accidents. |
