2012 Dodge GRAND CARAVAN Service Brakes Problems, Complaints and Defects

File date	14/02/16
Component	SERVICE BRAKES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Brake pads, rotors & calipers have had to be replaced 3 times. Car is now at 57,000 miles. If even gently using the brakes in stop & go traffic backup on highway, when car needs to accelerate, steering wheel vibrates badly and trouble getting car up to speed. Obvious that something is sticking regarding the brakes. When finally up to speed, problem disappears (60mph). Very frightening & potential serious accident problem. I drive long distances at night to & from work events & don't need to be stranded on a deserted highway somewhere at midnight. Why has there been no recall on a problem that everyone, including the dodge mechanics, know about! This has become an ongoing issue, first on feb. 14, then feb. 16 and again feb. 26. Rear brake pad after feb. 14 was totally burned off ~ was replaced & still the issue is occurring, now on the front brakes.
