| Description of the problem | Braking capability -- seemingly in front end of vehicle -- is diminished by apparent warping of front brake rotors. This became first noticeable to me at approx just 15k miles. Jeep (daimlerchrysler) wants no part of repair (warranty exp at 12k miles, they say). Independent repair shop informs me that this is chronic problem with jeeps. I complained to daimlerchrysler via latter in march; they declined to help via letter dated april 10, 2007. |
