problem #2

Nov 152014

Cherokee Trailhawk 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 10 miles

electronic emergency brake automatically activates in reverse

Sometimes, when backing up, the vehicle will automatically engage the electronic parking brake. No explanation, nothing else is touched (both hands on the wheel). Car will lurch to a stop. Brake must be released to continue backing up. COMPLETELY ANNOYING & UNNECESSARY.

Cherokee Sport

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,654 miles

emergency brake engages while backing up

I FELT AS IF I GOT WHIPLASH- HERE I WAS BACKING UP AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR FLAT STOPS, JARRING ME AS THE E BRAKE ENGAGED.

THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO TAKE CAR IN.

THEY SAID THAT FOUND RIGHT PASSENGER DOOR NOT CLOSED PROPERLY DUE TO MISALIGNED. AFTER ALIGNMENT OF DOOR, PARK BRAKE WORKING PROPERLY.

MY QUESTION, THAT DOOR WAS MISALIGNED FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, WOULDN'T THAT HAVE HAPPENED EVERY TIME I DROVE THE CAR.? THEIR ANSWER, NOTHING.

IT WILL BE BACK IN SOON, IM SURE.
