Description of the problem | My journey is less than 2 years old with 18,500 miles. Rotors are already warped (car shakes violently upon braking at all speeds). Dodge states that brakes are only covered under their warranty up to 12,000 miles. Internet sites are filled with complaints about similar problems in 2009-2010 journeys and dodge ended up extending warrantees for those years as a result. Dodge claims to have addressed brake issues with the 2011 redesign but clearly the problem remains. They need to stand behind their product, and do the right thing by extending the brake warranty on 2011's as well. |
