| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: When having routine service performed on the vehicle at 22,000 miles, i was advised that the rotors on the front brakes were warped and required replacement. i was also advised that this was not covered by the "bumper-to-bumper" 36,000 mile warranty. rather, the warranty period for brake rotors is 12,000 miles. i paid for the replacement but note that i had a similar problem on a 1999 jeep grand cherokee at well over 12,000 miles and the rotors were replaced under warranty. it appears that chrysler knows that it has a problem with premature wear on disc brake rotors, but has chosen to address it by limiting the warranty rather than fixing the problem. |
