2011 Grand Caravan Crew Big Brake Kit???
Hi, in another thread someone had mentioned to cure the front rotor warping (7400 miles and having our rotors replaced already) we needed a big brake kit. I called my local dealers and auto zone and nobody had anything for me. I searched online and am not finding anything for 2011 or much for the GC.
Can anyone guide me into what I would need? I would need to pay someone to install so I want to make sure it is right.
thanks,

Any luck?
I would love to know if you got anywhere with this. I have under 14K miles on our DGC Crew and just had to have the front and rear rotors/pads replaced. The fronts were covered under the special warranty update but the rears were at my expense. I can't see owning this vehicle too long if I have to replace front and rear brakes every 15K miles!
I'm praying someone has come up with the part #s that will complete a big brake swap on these vans. Thanks!

I have had no luck in finding a big brake kit or anyone that has a solution to the problem. The dealers in my area provide very poor customer service and state it must be the way we brake. We just had to have all 4 rotors replaced but not the rear pads because they had well over half the life left the tech said. We had about 8000 miles on it at time of service. I heard the 2013 will come with heavy duty brakes. My hope is if that is true Dodge will offer it to those of use with the issues 2008-2011 at cost. but i doubt that will happen
we absolutely love the van but are in the same boat as you. We just can't afford to keep replacing brakes once they are out of warranty. we had a sienna for a while and that thing seemed bullet proof, less some minor things. however the dodge is far more fun and filled with goodies. shame they would use such inferior brakes...sigh
