2019 Dodge Charger brakes problems

Vehicle was sold by Westgate Crysler Jeep Dodge Ram of Raleigh with missing caliper bolt in front passenger brake system. This was detected by an independent service center while getting brake pads and rotors replaced, as they were very worn and causing the brake system to be jumpy and catchy, despite Westgate assuring they were fine. The lack of the bolt in the caliper put my entire family's life at risk from the second we drove off the lot a little over a month ago.

I purchased a new 2019 dodge charger scatpack. It was purchased as a leisure car for weekend use. I've had the vehicle for a year and a half and has 13000 miles. The vehicle began to shimmy from the front brakes. The front vibration began very light but has continued to increase. At first I believe that it was probably caused by the fact that it was not driven to often and there was probably a rust buildup of some kind. However, in researching the internet it appears to be a common problem with this vehicle. The dealership labeled the problem as a wear and tear issue and for that reason it would be my responsibility to fix it. I strongly believe that this is a poor designed problem that the manufacturer is refusing to recognize. I've owned many cars in my 58 year's of life and I know that a break issue unfortunately takes loss of life before it's addressed by the authorities and or manufacturer's. I'm hoping that these issue is addressed as I've found throughout my research that it's a common problem with this vehicle and it comes with other problems like brake failure also. The brakes are manufactured by brembo brake who has also refused to acknowledge a posible problem with the brakes.

The rear brake pads do not sweep the entire surface of the rear rotors. Nearly 25% of the rear rotor is not in contact with the rear brake pads. This diminishes braking force and makes the rear rotor incompatible with currently available replacement pads. This defect is visually apparent when the car is stationary. It also impacts the vehicles ability to come to a stop while in motion. I suspect that the wrong parts were installed by the manufacturer or there is a manufacturing defect present.

The rear brake pads do not fit correctly, they are undersized. There is a large portion of the rear rotor that is not in contact with the pad. This is causing damage and premature wear to the brake rotors.
