Vehicle exhibited severe front end problem 2 weeks from purchase. The truck severly pulls to the left upon braking and the front end shakes making the vehicle hard to control. 8+ attempts have made to repair the problem but it stil persists. Daimler Chrysler will not help in this situation even after being contacted by attorneys, better business bureau and Consumer Affairs. This vehicle is very dangerous and I fear for my husband and his passangers lives. We are fincancing this vehicle and only ask them to break the contract, return our deposit and take the vehicle off the road.

I have heard some talk of someone out in California, refabricting the front brake system to solve this problem. Is there any other truck owners that have also heard this" the brake calipers on this 1999 Dodge, are almost have the size of the brake calipers on my 1992. The brakes pull hard to the right when braking at any speed, especially during rain. Very very dangerous when rainy weather. Dealer has been very very good with me in trying to get this fixed. Even they are telling me they will have to contact Chrysler too. Does someone have to get hurt, and file a lawsuit to make anything happen" why wait til one is dead, take action now, this is a safety concern!! lets start a chat section, get everyone together!!!

This truck is unsafe!! two weeks after purchase, steering pulled hard to the left when loaded/towing. Now truck pulls hard to the right when braking (loaded or not), but will occassionally pull left. Driver is never sure which direction truck will pull. Dealership has made numerous "repairs" to the steering, suspension, and brakes; including but not limited to steering gear box, ball joints, calipers, suspension arms, alignment, tire pressure, tire rotation, tire size. District service manager has stated these trucks have "very sensitive suspensions" and the pulling is "normal". this is a 3/4 ton 4-wheel drive work truck and it has a "sensitive suspension"?

Front disc brakes pull to left, been to dealer up to 10 or more time, dealer states that chysler knows of problem, brake used in panic stops pulls vehicle into left lane sharply, estimated 5 near miss accidents, I want to know from you if this is a known problem, and can Chrysler be forced into recall for final fix?

I have had 3 failures of my front brakes. The first time was within a week of purchasing the truck. The second brake failure was 6 months later at approx. 18,000 miles and the third failure was at approx. 34,000 miles on Oct. 1st 2000. I have taken the vehicle back to Dodge and they have reported nothing wrong with the brakes. An independent mechanic looked at the brakes and said there appears to be something wrong with the calipers. The truck pulls violently to the left when the brakes are applied and I've also had the front brakes lock up.

- Huffman, TX, USA

The truck pulls left when braking. When loaded or towing a trailer you have to have both hands on the wheel or you will be in the ditch or worse yet pulled into oncoming traffic. I have had the truck to 3 different dealers at Chrysler request for a total of 6 repair attempts and 28 days in the shop. The last visit was for 8 days and included leaving my truck and trailer yet the truck still isn't repaired. The Chrysler rep has placed the blame on my trailer and called my problem a questionable repair because I'm towing a trailer with my truck. Worst customer service I've ever encountered!!

- North Branch, MN, USA

Defective rotors and pads/excessive wear of front rotors and pads at 18,000 miles. Informed that possible replacement maybe needed. Dealer notified, and informed consumer that was a normal condition for that vehicle. Feel free to provide any further details.

- Littleton, CO, USA

When pulling load back brakes will not operate, and all work is done by front brakes. This causes front brakes to get real hot. After taking trailer off and going down on a dirt road, back brakes will lock up and vehicle will slide. Tsb 05-04098 was issued, stating proportional valve had to be replaced. Also, the front brakes and caliper repeatdly fails almost every 3000 miles.

- Medford, OR, USA

Basically the truck pulls to the right almost every time the brakes are engaged every day and at any speed.

Anti-lock brakes are designed for the rear wheels only. The front brakes do not have anti-lock brakes. If driving in snow or ice and applying the brakes, front brakes lock up. Rear brakes will release, allowing engine power to go to the rear wheels, and continue to power the vehicle forward. Very dangerous to drive on snow/ice. Parked vehicle under these conditions. Consumer has filed a report with NHTSA auto safety hotline line. Also, the dealership Chrysler/Dodge has not corrected the problem.

- Fryeburg, ME, USA

Brakes started to fail at 8000 miles. At 18000 miles the brakes were repaired by the dealer. Tech found rear drums out of round. Front rotors were turned. The problem prior to repair was bad vibrations when applying brakes. Truck now has 37000 miles and the problem is begining again. Started to notice vibrations at about 25000 miles. Will dealer or mfg. Cover this problem at this point?
