The brakes on my 2006 dodge charger r/t have been squealing for the past three months, and they continue to squeal. I have taken my dodge charger to my local dealership three times for this issue and i have paid for my brake rotors to be resurfaced. I have more than 60% of brake pad life left. The dealership said that this issue is a manufacturer problem and a need for a recall is necessary. Please help. *tr

I own a 2006 dodge charger daytona r/t. She is driven very little and only has 5200 miles. The brakes have already started to develop a squeal at low speeds. It is my understanding that a large amount of other 2006+ chargers also have this issue.*jb updated 01-16-08. *kb

We purchased a 2006 dodge charger rt brand new in 4/2006. At approximately 8000 miles we started hearing the brakes squeal. It came and went but at 12k we took the car in for service. We were told nothing was wrong. I told the service manager that i knew there was a pretty big issue with the brake squeal because i had done my research. We took the car back in and they replace the brake pads and resurfaced the…

I am concerned about the quality and safety of the brakes on my 2006 dodge charger r/t. Every time i brake, i hear a loud squealing noise. My car has 10,000 miles on it. I addressed this problem to the dealership where i get my car serviced and they said it was normal for this type of brake pad. I have never owned a vehicle that has made this awful noise and i do not see how it can be normal. I am concerned that…

I have attempted to take the car into three separate dodge dealerships in the dallas texas area…
