 Description of the problemI leased a brand new 2004 special edition jeep grand cherokee in december of 2003. At approximately 25,000 miles of normal driving conditions, the front end began shaking violently when applying pressure to the brakes. After reviewing the my car stats website i questioned whether it could be a rotor problem. I called the dealership and was told it would not be covered by warranty. The local dealership turned the rotors, reporting they were badly warped. They also ensured me that it would happen again and was widely known to be a jeep grand cherokee issue. My understanding is that rotors should last much longer than 25,000 miles. I do not believe i should have to pay over $100 to correct an issue that is obviously a design flaw. I also do not intend to keep the vehicle beyond the term of the lease as i do not want to invest $400-$500 each time this happens. For anyone out there considering a daimler chrysler product, think twice before signing on the dotted line. *jb
