| Description of the problem | I have a 2008 jeep wrangler unlimited x 4x4, went in for service at 30,000 miles and was told my rear brakes were bad and need to be replaced, i told the dealer i could not understand why the rear brakes went out before the front ones, in all my driving history never has the rear brakes gone bad so soon and before the front ones, i to was told this is normal for my vehicle and i had to replace the rear brakes at my cost chrysler would not cover brakes, i had someone else look at the brakes first just to confirm i needed the brakes as again i felt it was way too soon for them to go bad, it was confirmed i needed the brakes. I think this needs to be looked into as i have read other issues of the same as mine, i don't feel so bad about the issue and i know that i did not wear them out in my driving habits seeing all these other similar issues. |
