2004 dodge sprinter - the braking system stiffens up (power brake) if i push the pedal hard especially when i back up the vehicle. it's like the booster has frozen solid and the brake pedal can't travel all the way down. if i let the vehicle sit for a while (1 hr) it will get back to normal. this is a repeat incident and started in the first year but i did not pay too much attention since i did not understand what happened and the problem disappeared for a while. but lately is reappearing more frequently. no accident yet. nothing has been done to correct the failure. the vehicle is out of warranty by now 66,000 miles. i wonder if there are more people experiencing the same. *tr | |||

Since purchasing the vehicle there has been a continuous grinding and vibration with the brakes, which has imperfectly the vehicle's performance. consumer took vehicle to dealer for service, and the brake pads were replaced twice. however, problem recurred. *ak replaced 4 rotors in april 2005 and problem still there. when driving slow and applying the brakes there was a loud grinding noise coming from brakes. while driving on the highway and braking vibrations were felt followed by grinding of brakes. *bf *nm |
