About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Vehicle is a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 61900 miles. One brake line failed as a result of corrosion at two points where it is clipped to the car's frame. Brake pedal became soft and went almost to the floor. It would not pump up. Vehicle was taken to a Firestone repair shop where the failed brake line was discovered. The line was replaced. I have the old line. This is a light use vehicle and if I had this failure, there are probably many others.
