When driving in the mountains of colorado and going down a steep incline when I applied the brakes to slow down the car shuddered like it was going to fall apart, scared my wife and grandchildren badly, afraid to drive in this car now. Appears t o be a problem with the rotors overheating and wrapping per two brake specialist I took the car to. Called chrysler and they want me to take it into the dealer to have brakes checked out, but want to charge me a diagnostic fee up front and wont do a free brake inspection for a very possible brake rotor defect (cheap rotors?) I don't have the money for the upfront diagnostic fee as I was laid off a year ago. They will not forego the upfront fee so I am stuck with perhaps a faulty brake system. This definitely should be looked into as a safety problem. The chrysler case number was [xxx]. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
