I have a 2002 Dodge Intrepid. The front break rotors wear out prematurely and cause the steering wheel to vibrate and shake. I have Had rotors, break pads and calipers replaced 4 times and am getting ready to put another set of rotors no now. Thety tell me the rotors get hot and when i come to a stop light if i hold the break pedal down in the same spot i will create a hot spot and warp the rotor. They said to let the car roll a little at stop light to take heat off of the same spot on rotor. I never heard of this with any car i ever had.

I took my car to a dodge dealer and they said all four brakes were bad. They had to replace the rotors and pads. I have never had this problem with any other car I have owned and I am ticked.
