My jeep grand cherokee had the brakes & rotors changed at 22,000 miles through a recall. Now, at 55,000 miles they both need to be done again. This does not seem like typical wear and tear as i have never had to replace brakes and rotors after such a short distance. Dealership blames it on driving techniques, but like i said, i have never had to do this with any other vehicles i have owned.*ak
