CASE NUMBER: [XXX] /THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER STOPPED SAFELY SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW (02-07-2011/ MILEAGE NOW 28455). WHEN YOU HAVE TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP IT MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT BRING IT TO A STOP. LAST WEEK MY WIFE AND I TRIED TO AVOID A COLLISION WHEN A CAR MADE A QUICK TURN IN FRONT OF US AND THEN THIS CAR HAD TO MAKE A QUICK STOP. WHEN WE APPLIED THE BRAKES IT MADE A VERY ROUGH SOUND UNDER FRONT END...(AS USUAL...BUT TRAVELED 15 FT. BEFORE IT APPLIED THE BRAKES... AND WE WERE ONLY 3FT. AWAY FROM A SERIOUS ACCIDENT). I HAVE DISCUSSED THIS BRAKE PROBLEM ON MANY OCCASIONS WHEN I WOULD TAKE IT IN FOR SERVICE WITH THE PEOPLE WHO CHECK ME IN BUT,...THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THE BRAKES ARE BUNNY HOPPING AND THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE NEW TRUCKS AND THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM...(BUT NEVER CHECK THEM OUT TO MAKE SURE). WE HAVE HAD MANY NEW VEHICLES BUT THEY ALL STOPPED THE WAY THEY SHOULD EXCEPT THIS ONE. I HAVE CALLED THIS PROBLEM TO DODGE ATTENTION TWICE AND WILL TAKE IT BACK TO EFIRD CHRYSLER...
