Description of the problem	2008 dodge grand caravan 32k miles front brakes were squeaking so we took it to local dodge dealer. Said the front rotors and pads needed to be replaced. This car is new and the first brake job needs rotors? We paid for it and later dodge sent out a reimbursement letter in the summer to pay half of the costs. I wonder if they put the same junk rotors back on? Now, 6k miles later the front right brake squeals like the pad is low but the dealer said it is ok and that is "normal". It is not normal to hear a grinding pad on rotor sound when the pad is good! The only thing he said they could do would be to resurface the rotor and put stop squeal on the pad. It would cost around 120. 00 bucks. Poor parts are obviously on this car... I will not buy another dodge or suggest anyone do so. Other problems with this new car so far are: 1. When first bought, trans fluid leak, warranty fixed that. 2. Rotors and pads on front (as described above), reimbursed for half 3. Now at 38k miles, the front left wheel bearing is bad, have to replace, 220. 00 dollars, i am talking to chrysler to see if they will pay for or not. Two dealers and two repair shops cannot get this part for a week to a month, they are on backorder.
