Description of the problem	I purchased this particular vehicle 08/18/12 with approximately 17,000 miles. I was told the brakes had already been replaced. After driving the vehicle to approximately 35,000 miles, i was told the brakes needed to be replaced again. Now, at 60,000 miles, i'm being told, once again, that the brakes need to be replaced. After owning multiple vehicles throughout my driving experience (28 years), i have never experienced such a recurring problem with any vehicle i've ever owned. Extensive online research reveals that this is an issue the majority of dodge grand caravan, chrysler town and country and volkswagen owners have experienced as well, and i would imagine this is not the first complaint you've seen regarding this issue? I have not contacted the manufacturer about this issue. I should also add that the brake work done at approximately 35,000 miles was done by a family friend with over 25 years experience in the automotive repair industry, due to an extremely high estimate from the shop i currently use. (in excess of $650. 00).
