| Description of the problem | 2009 dodge grand caravan rear brakes failure at 28,500 miles.. Went in for oil change at 24k was told brakes were getting low. At 28,5k i was told brakes were close to metal to metal. An extended warranty was issued for front brakes, i was told by chrysler that 15k to 20k was normal wear and life expectancy for the rear brakes on this vehicle. I refused repair and vehicle is sitting in my yard not being used. I was told also by chrysler that unless more info was sent to them supporting that the issue was not normal wear chrysler would be denying my claim and would not be offering any assistance on those issues. *kb |
