SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS DRIVING TO EXIT THE HOSPITAL WHEN FOR THE 4TH TIME SINCE I'VE HAD THE DODGE THE BREAKS WENT COMPLETELY OUT THEN LOCKED UP A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD AND THE BACK TIRES LOCKED UP WITH THE BREAKS. I'VE CHANGED THEM 4 TIMES IN THE 6 MONTHS I'VE HAD THE CAR, THEY GET FIXED AND 2 WEEKS LATER THE BREAKS ARE BAD AGAIN. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS IF I WERE ON THE HIGHWAY IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A ACCIDENT. THIS CAR WAS POORLY MADE ESPECIALLY THE BREAKS.
