Description of the problem	The calipers locked up on my rear driver side wheel. There was a terrible smell and loud sound when it happened. I was out of town with my daughter. I had to leave the van on a country road and come back for it later in order to let it cool so it didn't catch fire. The cost to repair was $750 to have all 4 calipers replaced. I had a 2006 dodge caravan that had the same thing happen 3 years ago. When it happened to me in 2011, it smoked and 911 was called to check out the issue. Having had 2 of the same types of vans have the same problem indicates to me that there is something wrong with dodge's design of their vehicles. There are instances of this problem all over the internet with several dodge models. A friend of mine several years ago had the same problem with a brand new dodge dakota that she had for 2 weeks. This is a dangerous problem that should be addressed by dodge. Having brakes catch fire is a dangerous situation. I can no longer take my van out of town for fear of it happening again.
