2008 Braun Town & Country problems

2008 Chrysler Town & Country, 26,500 miles. I was driving down the highway and when I parked my vehicle there was smoke coming from the drivers side rear brakes. The brakes had been stuck on for an unknown amount of miles. There was excessive heat and smoke coming from the area which could have led to a possible fire. I took it to the dealer and they told me there was no warranty or recall for this problem. Service brakes, hydraulic · reported at 26,500 miles

2008 Chrysler town and country front and rear brakes worn out at 30,000 miles. Front rotors worn out at 30000 miles and had to pay $100 deductible to have replaced. Paid out of pocket to have rear brakes replaced. All of my other vehicles I have gone over 100,000 miles on rear brakes and 100,000 miles on the rotors. I have never had front brakes that needed to be replaced before 60,000 miles. Service brakes, hydraulic · reported at 30,000 miles

I had to have new brakes twice already. It seemed pretty odd that is was at 18,000 and then again exactly 18k later at 36,000 miles. After reading other complaints I realize I am not imagining this. These brakes were not made to last. For $27k that I paid for this new van with all kinds of bells and whistles, I didn't think the brakes would be the thing that continued to be a problem.
