A few months ago there was a recall on my brake booster. I had been on the waiting list for 3 months waiting for this part. I was assured that my jeep was safe to drive. On friday nov 7th my brakes went out and i had to push really hard on the brakes in order to stop using both of my feet. Luckily i did not cause an accident, which could have killed myself or someone else. I am very disappointed in chrysler with all…

The issue described in nhtsa campaign number 14v104000 has been experienced on multiple occasions over the last 18 months. However, my vin does not indicate that my vehicle is associated with this recall. I believe the investigation should be expanded to determine if a broader set of vehicles is subject to this safety issue. *tr

The vehicle began inching forward and i kept trying to pump the brakes. I was unable to locate the emergency brake due and the vehicle stopped after making contact with the car stopped in front of me. I later regained brake pressure and promptly reported the incident to my…

While reversing from a driveway with an incline brakes were not responsive. I would like to file a formal complaint against chrysler for not supplying the parts to dealerships/car owners for all recalls (p14,p36, impending alternator recall, etc). These recalls in my opinion are all extremely dangerous and endanger the general public along with the owner of these vehicles. P-36 vanity light catch fire, p-14 break…

I visited our local jeep dealership in september of 2014. I explained to the individual behind the service counter that i received a recall notification for a possible brake booster problem and needed to bring my car in for inspection. The individual took out a notebook and added my name to what appeared to be a rather lengthy list. I still have yet to bring my car in for inspection. With such a wet winter, i would…

I did not have an actual incident with the vehicle - my complaint is about the lack of action for certain recalls. I received a recall notice on august 22, 2014 stating that the brake booster on my vehicle may prematurely corrode and ingest water. If the water freezes, the driver may have to apply force which may slow the driver's brake reaction time and cause a crash without warning. Quite a frightening scenario. I…
