| Description of the problem | I was putting a set of rear brake pads on the vechicle when i noticed that the rear crossmember is rotted out. I did some research and found out this is a known problem with these vechicle. Chrysler has to promised to fix the 2007 models, when the 2007, 2008, and 2009 all suffer from the same problem. I have to pay$1500. 00 out of my pocket for an 8 year old vechicle that should not be this rusted out. |
