What owners wrote
I stated their was a rubbing type noise in right/left front wheel when turning. The result was nothing. The second occurrence was august 13, 2008 with the same problem. The third time day chrysler resurfaced front and rear rotors. The subsided but occurred again. The brakes drag and pulsate when stopping. I continue to have noisy front wheels while driving forward. When backing the automobile up the front brake pads are not stationary meaning they should not move in brake calipers.
