Air Brake Drum Shoes/linings problem of Jeep Liberty
Bought the 2003 Jeep Liberty brand new in may, 2003. Now a year and seven months later, we still have squealing brakes. The dealer in wichita has replaced the pads 2 or 3 times, and re-surfaced the pads once or twice. They've now decided that they will need to replace the back brakes, including the roters. These parts have been ordered, and we are waiting to have this work done. Additionally, the automatic transmission started downshifting hard from 3rd gear to second gear, and down to first gear. They replaced some parts in the transmission, and this problem appears to be fixed. We'll see! they blamed the rusting brakes to "humidity". . . The car now has only 7,200 miles on it, and has been kept inside the garage every night of it's existence. The dealer claims that all the squealing and rusting of the brakes are due to the "humidity" in the air. We live in the exact middle of the us in kansas. There's not a lot of moisture in the air inside of my attached garage. This brake problem has been ongoing from mid 2003 to the present time in December of 2004. The car only has a little over 7000 miles on it. . . The dealer said that "the problems might go down if we would drive the car more often. " we would not recommend a Jeep Liberty to anyone we like. This air brake drum shoes/linings issue occurred Jun. 10, 2003.

Air Brake Drum Shoes/linings problem of Jeep Grand Cherokee
The vehicle was a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The VIN of this vehicle is 1J4GW38SX2_. The rotors in my Grand Cherokee have failed early on my 2002. I had to have them replaced--under 5000 miles--then at 22000 they failed again and this time they cut them down--now at 35000, I have to have them replaced. These are Chrysler / mopar parts--this is a Jeep--like a truck--so why is this a problem--not only I have had this problem--when speaking with fullerton, in somerville NJ, I was told by the service manager that it has been a problem and even his wife's Jeep did it--however since he replaced with a non Chrysler/mopar part, he has not seen any continuing problems. I feel that these parts are defective and since this is the 3rd time of this happening, I am annoyed. I called the Chrysler consumer line and I was told that if I had called before the vehicle was repaired, that maybe some of the cost could have been adjusted--this is after the fact- can anything be done?. This problem occurred on Mar. 16, 2005.
