| Description of the problem | I own a 2003 dodge ram 1500. The brake rotors warped within 10,000 miles. After extensive talks with the dealer they machined the rotors. After another 10,000 miles, they warped again. After talking to several dodge ram 2003 owners i learned that many have been having similar problems. I feel that the dealer should replace my rotors. The steering wheel has extreme wobble when breaking with the warped rotors. *nm |
