ABOUT 2 WEEKS AFTER REPLACEMENT OF ALL FOUR ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS I APPLIED BRAKES WHILE TRAVELLING 30 MPH ON DRY ROAD AS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME WAS WAITING TO TURN LEFT. MY CAR TOOK A MUCH LONGER TIME AND DISTANCE TO STOP THAN USUAL. I SHOULD HAVE STOPPED 10 TO 15 FEET BEHIND THE CAR BUT DID NOT STOP UNTIL ABOUT A FOOT FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I HEARD A HISSING NOISE FROM THE AREA NEAR BRAKE PEDAL. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO MY MECHANIC WHO SAID THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER NEEDED REPLACEMENT. HE SAID THIS IS A VERY UNUSUAL THING TO OCCUR AND SUGGESTED THAT I CONTACT JEEP TO SEE IF IT WAS PART OF A RECALL. I CONTACTED THE JEEP DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM ( CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED ) AND WAS TOLD THAT RECALL # P14 WAS PERFORMED IN OCT. 2014 TO PLACE A SHIELD NEAR THE POWER BOOSTER TO PREVENT WATER INFILTRATION TO AVOID CORROSION. I WAS TOLD THAT A NEW POWER BOOSTER WOULD NOT BE COVERED BY WARRANTY. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT SINCE A RECALL WAS INITIATED TO PREVENT CORROSION OF THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER BUT THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN FOR 3 YEARS PRIOR TO THE SHIELD BEING INSTALLED THAT THE CORROSION CAUSED BY WATER INFILTRATION HAD ALREADY BEGAN AND THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER ITSELF SHOULD BE PART OF THE RECALL. SIMPLY PLACING A SHIELD AFTER THE CORROSION PROCESS STARTED DEFIES COMMON SENSE AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I DO UNDERSTAND THAT THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER WAS TESTED AT THE TIME THE SHIELD WAS INSTALLED, HOWEVER CORROSION (RUST ) IS AN ONGOING PROCESS. I THINK THE PROPER AND SAFE WAY TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM IS TO REPLACE THE POWER BOOSTER AS PART OF THE RECALL IN ADDITION TO THE THE PLACEMENT OF THE SHIELD.

I LEFT MY CAR IN WITH DARCARS JEEP OF ROCKVILLE, MARYLAND ON APRIL 2ND FOR A ROUTINE SERVICE AND TO COMPLETE ANY RECALLS. DARCARS INFORMED ME THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO COMPLETE ONE OF THE RECALLS (RECALL NUMBER 14V154000) ON THE CAR BECAUSE CRISWELL JEEP OF GAITHERSBURG (A DEALERSHIP THAT I USED IN OCTOBER 2014) CLAIMED THEY HAD ALREADY PERFORMED THE WORK FOR THE RECALL AND HAD BEEN PAID BY JEEP, HOWEVER THE WORK WAS NEVER ACTUALLY DONE. JEEP IS REFUSING TO PAY FOR THIS RECALL BECAUSE CRISWELL, ONE OF THEIR LICENSED DEALERSHIPS, IS NOT BEING HONEST. A DEALERSHIP LYING ABOUT PERFORMING RECALLS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY VIOLATION AND SHOULD BE REVIEWED IMMEDIATELY BY YOUR AGENCY. HOW MANY OTHER RECALLS HAS CRISWELL BEEN PAID FOR BUT NOT ACTUALLY PERFORMED THE WORK? WHAT ARE THE CONTROLS IN YOUR AGENCY TO MITIGATE THIS RISK? *TR
