 Description of the problemWe own a 1998 dodge grand caravan. We had to replace the front brake pads at 20,000 miles. To which the mechanic said that was abnormally soon to need new pads. Now at 35,000 miles the pads need to be replaced again and it appears the rotors are warped. A recent discussion with a friend who owns the same year, make and model has the same situation of premature brake pad erosion and needs a second replacement with even less miles than we have on our vehicle. Originally we believed we were just harder on our brakes than normal but with two replacements and warped rotors within 35,000 miles we believe there's a bigger issue. Additionally there are strange noises from the front brake area and there's a concern that there could be other issues. Due to the importance of the braking system and how quickly the 2008 grand caravan's are failing we believe it's only a matter of time until someone is hurt due to this abnormal condition. Thank you.
