Description of the problem	I have a 2003 dodge ram 1500 quad cab - at approximately 5400 miles, the front end began to shake like the rotors were possibly warped. I took it to the dealership to have it checked and was told the rotors were definitely warped. The rotors were replaced, but i have a really big problem question. Why is this happening? I don't drive the truck hard or use excessive braking, but i have found numerous complaints regarding other '03 dodge ram owners and warped rotors at low mileages (http://www. Dtwtrucks. Com/forums/topic. Ten? Id=56542l). Shouldn't there be a service bulletin on this issue already or even a recall? With the amount of complaints that i've seen, it seems as though no one wants to do anything about this but replace or turn the rotors and leave it at that. The warranty on the brakes only lasts 12 months or 12,000 miles. If they keep warping, then the rotors will have to be replaced every 6,000 miles or so for as long as i own the truck. Not something i want to have to do. Will someone please fix this before dodge is faced with a possible lawsuit? Should that happen, i feel there will be many dodge ram owners that will want a part of the outcome... *la

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
