BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2010 DODGE JOURNEY AND IT NEEDED NEW BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS AT JUST 19,000 MILES, WORRIED BRAKES MAY FAIL AT SOME POINT OR ARE NOT SUFFICIENT ENOUGH FOR THE VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP BILLED ME $50 TO GET THEM REPAIRED, STATED CHRYSLER/DODGE COMPANY PUT A "PARTICIPATION FEE" AND IF MY CAR WAS OVER 24,000 MILES IT WOULD BE $100.
