Been to the dealer 6 times for the brakes. When braking from 60 mph+, the truck shakes violently. Repairs last 3,000 miles, then it returns. I have filed a complaint with DaimlerChrysler. I will file a law suit if this truck is not replaced, it seems very dangerous.

- Bellefontaine, OH, USA
While traveling down the highway at appox. 65 mph I began to apply the brakes, the entire vehicle and steering wheel shook violently. This came without warning, after a few gentle pushes on the brake in the next few miles the shudder was less violent. It now feels as if the rotors are warped, I had the rotors turned at 6500 miles and now it seems as they are warped again. In recent days I have been careful to note the vehicles behavior, it seems that after 5-6 stoplights or braking periods in quick succession that the next few stops are especially violent, and then a few stops later it goes away. The violent shaking is strong enough to cause problems at highway speeds, I am now confined to <45 mph until the vehicle is inspected next week.
- Lakewood, CO, USA
Subject vehicle has been returned to two (2) different dealers on five (5) occasions for warranty work on excessive noise when placed in gear. Subject vehicle also has been returned to replace front brake assembly due to brake fade and excessive noise. Subject vehicle has also been returned for warranty work to correct vehicle transmission slip (when accelerating from stop (I.e at traffice light)). Subject vehicle has also been returned for replacement of front passenger seat cushion fabric bunching up - this was not repaired as Chrysler rep said this is "normal" for seat cushion.
