I own a 2002 Dodge Dakota; the most unreliable vehicle I have ever owned. Front brake calipers have a fiberglass composite piston which sticks & causes the brake pads to drag & cook the brake rotors. Front suspension is very light duty; have had to replace the tie rod ends at 72,000 miles. Ball joints have also been replaced. 3.9 V6 engine can't get out of it's own way & gets poor fuel mileage (15 mpg average). Light duty, low quality, problem vehicle. Don't buy any Chrysler vehicle; pretty on the outside; sub-par junk on the inside.
01 Dodge Caravan.
Had a Dodge dealer tell me that a sticking break piston that ruined the rotor was "Normal" after 21,000 miles. I also had another dealer tell me that we needed $800.00 worth of tune-up with only 56,000 miles.
Both times I called the 800 number in owners manual and both times Dodge made these problems right at no cost to me. For the brakes they told me to find a brake shop I trusted and they reimbursed me.
No lie, once I found a decent Dodge service center, all has been good to go. Remember, the dealers don't work for Dodge. I went through a number of "Five Star" dealer service centers before I found an honest one. I have had the same problem with my other cars as well.
