Ram 3500

  • 25,000 miles
The contact owns a 2008 Dodge Caravan. The contact stated that when he applied pressure on the break pedal at 55 mph, he heard a grinding noise and the vehicle shimmied. Break failure can lead to increased stopping distances, which can cause a vehicle crash. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, and a technician replaced the front rotors. The failure mileage was 25,000. The current mileage was 29,000.
