SERVICE BRAKES
PURCHASED VAN FROM DEALER. WHILE DRIVING THE NEXT DAY, FRONT BRAKES STARTED TO SQUEAL RATHER LOUDLY. THIS CONTINUED AND GOT LOUDER....THE VAN SOUNDED LIKE A SCHOOL BUS. I TOOK THE VAN OVER TO THE DEALER BECAUSE NOW THERE WAS A LOT OF BRAKE DUST ON THE FRONT TIRE RIMS. I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM AND I COULDN'T BE HELPED WITH THE ISSUE. MY BRAKES ARE WEARING DOWN QUICKLY AND SQUEAL LOUDLY. THERE IS SO MUCH BRAKE DUST THAT MY RIMS LOOK BLACK IF NOT WASHED. I FEEL THAT DODGE/CRYSLER SHOULD REPLACE MY BRAKE PADS FREE OF CHARGE AND CHECK MY ROTORS FOR WEAR AND REPLACE IF NECESSARY ALSO FREE OF CHARGE SINCE THIS IS A STANDING ISSUE. IF MY BRAKES FAIL, THIS MAY CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. ALSO, IT IS RATHER EMBARRASSING TO DRIVE A NEW VAN THAT DODGE IS TRYING TO PROMOTE AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE TO WORK IN MORNING MY TRUCK HIT A BUMP IN HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH AND SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. I LOST STEERING AND BRAKES. WHILE COASTING I SHIFTED THE TRANSMISSION TO NEUTRAL AND RE-STARTED THE ENGINE AND WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES AT DIFFERENT TIMES. THE MOST RECENT YESTERDAY SEPTEMBER 23RD 2015 WHILE TURNING ONTO MAIN AVENUE AS I WAS ACCELERATING THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AS I WAS TURNING IN ADVANCE OF AN ON-COMING VEHICLE. AGAIN, I WENT TO NEAUTRAL AND RE-IGNITED THE ENGINE. THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN. I DO NOT HAVE HEAVY KEYS.
