The contact owns a 2008 Dodge Caravan. The contact stated that a loud humming noise would emit from the rear of the vehicle when driving at various speeds. The vehicle was not taken to have the failure diagnosed or repaired, but the contact felt that the failure was related to the wheel bearings. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 34764. The humming noise would go away sometimes then come back.
Year and half ago we received a recall letter from Dodge concerning our 2008 Dodge Caravan, reference to the front brake pads. Its seeems the brake pads were defective due to early wear out. The recall pads were replace by scott evans Dodge according to service manager with a pad that more metal in the composition of the pad. Now a year and few months later , I took my car in for front end realignment and scott evans is saying the brake pads that replaced the recall pads are now showing early wear out and should be replaced!!!!!! how is this possible, my car only has 31687 miles on it and now brakes pads are being replaced twice. My concern is the pads they put ont to replace the recall pads were also defective due to early wear out also. Being this deal with vehicle brake please investigate and found if Dodge is replacing recall pads and possible defective pads due to early wear out also. My wife and are in our late 50's and do not travel alot nor are our driving habits our of the norm. The miles on the car refect this. Please investigate rick page.
My wife took our 2008 Dodge Caravan in to have her key replaced and abracadabra @ tomball Dodge, in tomball,texas. The service manager told , my wife that everyone inspected her brakes , and they agreed that her brakes wear and tear were do to her driving habits, and she needed to replace her rotors only on one side. She was told that she is using her right front brakes more often than her left front brakes. When I confronted the csmgr she told me alot of people brake one side more than the other and it was more common than I thought, but they would fix both sides and make them even again , if she had the work done there today for 10% less the cost of the new pads and rotors. Remember, my wife was only there to get her key replaced, and we were very lucky the technician detected the right handed braking issue, while driving the car into a noisy shop his super keen hearing was able to detect both sides. The brakes, were repaired at a local shop a few weeks ago, the parts in question were bought from tomball Dodge, they have yet to comment on the right handed braking issue and its commonality.
