When driving on a wet or a sandy road surface, the vehicle could not be stopped without placing the vehicle in neutral. This occurred because the rear wheels kept turning. The vehicle was serviced 3 times by different mechanics, and all of the brake components were replaced, but the failure still recurred. The problem was also really bad on snow or ice. The consumer suggested that the dealer try other Wrangler's in which they found that the 1998 models with rear wheels, locked on slippery conditions and found that the 2004 Wrangler's with no rear, locked up. The consumer also found that his vehicle with the rear on a jack would not stop the rear wheels from spinning with the consumer's foot on the brake(s) with the vehicle in drive.
