I was stopped at a light behind a vehicle when suddenly my brake pedal went down to the floor. The road was level with a slight incline. 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 insurance company and Chrysler customer service. Prior to the incident, I took my vehicle to the dealership for the brake recall. I was initially told that my brake booster had to be replaced and later told that it just needed the protective brake booster shield. Chrysler's solution was to have a rep from engineering analysis conduct tests on my vehicles brake system. On 5 November 2014, I received a letter from Chrysler advising me that the inspector found no problems with my brake system. They are refusing to replace the brake booster. I fear that I am at risk of my brake system failing again! this incident could have been fatal had I been on the expressway traveling at 55 mph!
- Lorton, VA, USA
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 these recalls. I had to use my triple a and have my car towed to the dealership. Although the dealership was nice enough to give me a rental, I think that I need to be reimbursed for using my triple a. after I pay this Jeep off I will not be buying nothing made by Chrysler and will trade it in. It does not make any sense to be on a waiting list for 3 months waiting for something that is a vital importance to my safety. The next person may not be so lucky and it could be fatal and turn into a law suit.

There has been a recall from Chrysler regarding the brake booster freezing during cold weather. The recall is P-14/NHTSA 14V-154. We have been on a waiting list since May 2014 and the dealership has been unable to receive the parts to make the repairs. I have been in contact with Chrysler and they have been no help as to making a timely repair. I ask that you look into this issue as to why so many people are on waiting list awaiting parts.

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 failure, impending alternator - car loses power unexpectedly. I will also mention our warranty periods have been extended for 5 additional yrs and 50,000 miles due to possible left cylinder head failures. Shame on Chrysler for not supplying parts and making the dealerships the middle men who also dont help the customers and point back at you. Lives are at risk...supply the parts and rectify your poor quality control.
