| Description of the problem | The van had squealing noise (at times) while driving. Then we noticed the strong smell of the brakes,like you are going down a steep hill,the burning smell. Must be the brake caliper sticking... So i took it to the dealer(where i bought it new) and was told that i needed new brake pad,new rotors at a cost of $777. 00. The van only had 38,282 miles on it. *tt |
