Tl*the contact owns a 2002 chrysler voyager. While driving approximately 60 MPH, the brake system spontaneously failed. The contact had to apply tremendous pressure to the brake pedal in order for the brakes to function. She took her vehicle to the dealer on several occasions and they cleaned the brake pads with the air line blower, added sway bar links, and replaced the brake shoes and drums. Shortly after the repairs were made, the brakes failed again while driving. The dealer stated that her failure was an isolated issue. The manufacturer stated that her VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign id number 06e022000 (service brakes, hydraulic); therefore, the contact would be responsible for the repair costs. The failure mileage was 35,000 and current mileage was 85,000.
