Description of the problem	2003 dodge ram 1500,hemi w/20" wheels. Brake rotors were warped at 4000 miles(another 1000 miles were put on before the parts came in). Replaced under warranty front brake calipers,front rotors and hoses. The second occurrence was at 10238, this time the dealer replaced both front rotors. The third occurrence was at 13073,at which time the dealer machined the two front rotors. Now,how long this will last is the question,it seems to me that once a rotor is warped and machined down,it becomes thinner and more likely to warp again(quick fix but not the solution). Daimler chrysler knows it has a problem but are not doing anything about it. With this problem it causes the truck to hop,vibrate excessively and the steering wheel to work back and forth uncontrollably when braking. I believe this to be a very serious condition and in which my safety and others safety is in great risk! *ak
