1. In October only 5 months after buying my '06 Charger I noticed a lot of noice coming from the brakes. 2. In November I took it in to the dealer and they said everything was fine that it mainly should happen when it gets colder. 3. I took it in last week in March and told them that it has been 75 degrees and up and that they still make noice at any speed. They said that there is nothing wrong with my brakes. After looking at other similar cases I am now assured that this is a big problem with other vehicles like mine and that they need to fixed!!.
I own a 2006 Dodge Charger srt8. My brakes has been squeaking since 7,500 miles. The brakes were wore out by that time. The life of a brake is 12,000 miles. There is only 21,500 miles now. I changed my front and back brakes three different times. Even changed the rotors. To no avail they still squeak! I brought my car to the dealer service center at least 10 times about the brakes. Last visit was in November 2007. They said there is nothing else that can be done.
2006 Dodge Charger daytona, front brakes started rubbing at about 8000 miles, was told thats normal. Brake problem has continued to 22,000 miles and now the rotors are badly grooved and in need of replacement as well as front brake pads. Warranty period for brakes is 12,000 miles (I fully understand this a wear part). Dealership has a technical service bulletin available, however the brakes are past their warranty. The problem began whil within warranty and was not repaired, and now the car can not be driven until the rotors are replaced/turned and brake pads replaced.
