problem #1

Aug 052007

Intrepid 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 10,000 miles
Had to replace front brakes 5 times over the course of 4 1/2 years. Also had rotors turned and replaced 4 times. The last set of rotors were warped within 6 months. They were drilled and slotted rotors to help heat escape, but were soon destroyed. I now have 61,000 miles on my car. I used an independent shop to replace my brakes. On my last check-up at the dealership, I asked the serviceman to check my brakes. The new set have been squealing. When I was later called to P/U my car, the serviceman said there was absolutely nothing wrong with my brakes. When I drove out the driveway of the dealership and stopped at the exit, my brakes squealed. This will continue to be an expensive repair.
