Noticed a "new" problem on my 2006 SXT. Appears I have rattling brake calipers. Notice this when driving at low speeds of 25 MPH or so.

My Magnum now has 32,000 rounds on it and with the warmer weather here in MI, been running with the windows down. Didn't notice this sound with the windows up this Spring. The sound is definitely from the front brakes, I will get a rattle or "chuckle" out one or both wheels when I hit rough sections of pavement or road seams. Lightly apply the brake at the same point I hear the noise and it will go away.

I've checked the calipers and the pads are tight, but it does seem the calipers move a bit on the anchor bolts. I'd expect some movement. Everything is tight with the bolts. Brake pads don't appear to be worn out, lots of pad left. Most of my driving is highway miles. Apparently the road seams cause enough of a jolt to make the things rattle.

Anyone else have this issue? My '97 LHS had a similar problem with caliper rattles and I was basically told that's the way they were, no real fix. Shop said it was related to the caliper / anchor design on that '97 model.
