Vehicle surges forward at a fairly high speed when brakes are applied. Had brake pads and rotors replaced 3 times; but problem still occurs.

While driving the vehicle the braking system malfunctioned, causing brake rotors to warp/more wear and tear on the brake pads, and calipers. Dealer replaced the brakes 7 times. Dealer cannot determine the problem. Please provide further information.

Rotors keep wrapping about every 5,000 to 6,000 miles.

Before I bought this car in March 97, the dealer promised to fix the brake problem (warped rotor-made the car come to a pulsating stop). They ground the rotors down before I bought the vehicle. Then in may 97, the rotors warped again and the dealer replaced the rotors. Then in Jan 98, the rotors warped again, but the dealer said "he could not find any problem". But of course there was a problem because it kept getting worse and worse so I took the car in again and the dealer replaced the rotors again in may 98. Then in Nov 98, the rotors became warped again but this time both the dealer and daimler Chrysler (I filed a formal complaint with the manufacturer file# 5313863) refused to fix this recurring problem. In the past they only fixed the symptoms, not the cause of this defect, otherwise, the problem would not keep recurring. I have sent both the dealer and manfacturer a complaint letter but they have not responded. It has been about 1 1/2 weeks.

Concerned about failure of brakes and car is only two years old.

A loud sound coming from front left and right wheels whenever you increase speed, I have had to replace all four of my tires twice, and still having the problem of the tires going flat. The brakes pulsate whenever coming to a stop and they constantly squeal. I have went to the mechanics for all of this listed complaints and no one was able to fix the problem. My brakes pulsating was said to be attributed to the kind of brakes that Chrysler puts on there vehicles a semi metallic type. My front wheels feel as though they are about to fly off. I am afraid to drive this vehicle.

Front rotors require resurfacing every 3000 to 5000 miles. Car was purchased used with 24,000 miles. Front rotors had to be resurfaced shortly after purchase and again 4000 mile later. Local dealer (not one listed above) was questioned on cause and if any recalls were in effect. Dealer had no cause and suggested the rotors be replaced. Rotors were replaced with after market components at approximatly 39,000 miles. The rotors now require resurfacing to eliminate pulsating brakes. I'm frustrated with the cost and time I have to invest. I'm also concerned that others may not have their brakes repaired and be left with ineffective brakes.
