| Description of the problem | 2009 d gr caravan purchased new, have had to have front brakes rotors , shaved , then brakes & rotors replaced, then again rear rotors shaved at 22,000 miles. There definitely is an issue with the brakes on this vehicle. And needs to be address by dodge. Also had electrical problems and van cut off on me once going 45 mph , then approx 25 mph, then again at a stop. This is the 1st new car i have ever purchased, not an easy thing for me as i only make $25,000 a yr and i am so frustrated that i promise i will only buy used from now on, if i am going to pay nearly $30,000 for a vehicle , i don't expect to have to have it in the shop 4 + times and to have to shell out a couple hundred dollars every 6 months on it. *kb |
