| Description of the problem | I have had problems with the brake on my 2003 ram 1500, at 14000 miles had front calipers replaced, new front rotors and they turned the rear rotors. This was all because of warped rotors i now have 23000 miles on teh truck and will again be taking it in to have the rotor replaced. I can't believe that there are so many complaints filed and nothing has been done. Maybe we need to contact the media. I know that when more people start die from this problem the media will be all over it. Just like the tires problems on ford suv's. Please do some thing before it is to late.*ak |
