Its problematic across all of Mopardom....
The LH cars are notorious for warping rotors. Same with the Sebrings.
Haven't heard anything from Caravan owners but I don't know many. Friend
with a Grand Cherokee had warpage within 20K as well. I've got a little
pulsing starting, its very faint, but I only had 9K. My wife thinks hers
are doing it at 22K. I haven't driven it lately. I may check runout this
weekend on both.
