Have a 2001 Chrysler Town and Country. About every two weeks, when driving down the freeway, I start to get a small vibration in the front passenger tire, like the wheel has thrown a balancing weight. The vibration gets worse and worse and worse until the whole front of the van is violently shaking like an earthquake. The steering wheel is violently shaking. The brake pedal is very high. It is like I am driving with the parking brake on by mistake, but the parking brake is not on. It is like trying to drive with the brake pedal fully pressed. When we pulled off the road the over night, the passenger front rotor was red hot and puffs of smoke were coming out and a horrible burning smell. All three wheels were fire hot except driver rear. Boardwalk Auto said nothing was wrong on two visits to fix the van. They replaced an ABS Speed Sensor on the third visit. They could find nothing wrong today on fourth visit so I picked up the van today - dreading the next incident - Any idea
