Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Both my 21 year old daughter & myself have experienced loss of brakes on several occasions with my 2000 jeep grand cherokee laredo, beginning in 2003. the problem occurs mostly in bad weather(mainly snowy conditions). when stopping is attempted, the car pulsates wildly (coming from the brake pedal), and you just skid out. we both have been lucky enough to avoid collision so far, due to lack of other traffic or by swerving into another lane, etc. the car dealership says its due to worn rotors, which we have now replaced 3 times: once in march of 2003 at 10,872 miles, once in july of 2004 at 23,721 miles and now in december 2005, at 33,081 miles. the first 2 times jeep paid for the replacement, the 3rd they refused. the service dept. is aware of the problem, they said they have numerous complaints, even with their own vehicles...jeep refuses to address the situation. it has been sheer luck that we have been able to avoid a catastrophe; my daughter is afraid to drive this car. there is a web site with a class-action law suit pending and approximately 20 pages of the same type of complaint...the rotors are too thin, they wear out easily, they brakes pulsate & fail. chrysler can not say they are not aware of this problem! *nm |
