2005 Replace front brake pads
#5
No to ceramics
At 65k miles it was time for new front brakes. I thought I would upgrade to ceramics to mainly prevent some of the brake dust that accumulates on the rims. After maybe 5k miles I started feeling the brake pulsating. At 75k I am buying new rotors and pads and replacing them tomorrow. Non-ceramic for sure!

1.) Always replace rotors if you have more then 35-40k on the rotor if you are replacing the brakes
2.) If you upgrade to ceramic pads, you need new rotors. Stock rotors will warp.
3.) Dodge/Chrysler has used junk rotors for many years (cant speak about the newer vehicles) but its pretty common. Upgrade to something aftermarket.
4.) Don't buy el cheap rotors from Autozone.
5.) Don't buy rotors from the dealership.
6.) Your front brakes account for most of your stopping power, dont cheapskate it..
Enjoy
