I JUST READ AN ARTICLE IN THE MAY 2016 ISSUE OF TRAILER LIFE MAGAZINE INVOLVING FORD F-150 AND THERE BRAKE FAILURE ISSUES. THE EXACT PROBLEM HAPPENED WITH MY JEEP. I WAS PULLING OUR CAMPER (UNLOADED), DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 60 MPH WHEN THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE BRAKE PEDAL OF MY JEEP WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR. I GOT SAFELY PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO CHECK THE FUID LEVEL. THE MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR WAS LOW BUT NOT EMPTY. I MANAGED TO GET HOME, ABOUT 6 MILES AND THE NEXT DAY TOOK THE TO JEEP DEALER WHERE THEY FOUND THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAD DEVELOPED A VACUUM LEAK (THEY SAID) CAUSING COMPLETE FAILURE OF BRAKING SYSTEM. DEALER REPLACED BRAKE BOOSTER, DID A COMPLETE BRAKE JOB, REPLACED ALL ROTORS AND FLUSHED SYSTEM. $1350 LATER I WAS BACK ON THE ROAD. UNTIL I READ THIS ARTICLE I THOUGHT IT WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. HOPEFULLY IT IS A COINCIDENCE.

THE JEEP HAS ONLY 43,880 MILES WHEN I WENT TO THE JEEP DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I WAS TOLD THE POWER STEERING RACK WAS LEAKING. THE REPAIR WOULD COST $1602 PLUS TAX. THIS JEEP HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN OFF ROAD AND SHOULD NOT BE LEAKING WITH THIS LOW MILEAGE . THERE APPEARS TO BE MANY COMPLAINTS OF OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. IT APPEARS THERE IS A FAULT WITH THE PART.

THE VEHICLE IS CONTINUOUSLY POWERING ITSELF OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING AND SAFETY FEATURES ARE FAILING. THE MECHANICAL ERROR IS HAPPENING RANDOMLY WHETHERBINAM IN TRAFFIC AND OR CRUISING DOWN A CITY STREET. THIS IS DUE TO A KNOWN ISSUE WITH TIPM, THAT CHRYSLER HAS COVERED UP IN THE PAST PER SECOND CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT CASE NO. 13-CV-08080-DDP-VBK. I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE AND HAVE I HAVE RECEIVED NO RESOLUTION FROM CHRYSLER OR THE DEALER. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS VEHICLE IS GOING TO CAUSE INJURY TO MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE.

I CUT MY THUMB & SCRAPED A KNUCKLE ON SOME VERY SHARP TRIM AROUND THE TOP OF THE CUP HOLDER WHEN I REACHED INSIDE IT IN A PARKING LOT. THE BOTTOM OF THE TRIM HAD PULLED AWAY FROM THE SIDE AND WAS PROTRUDING AT AN ANGLE IN MORE THAN ONE SPOT INSIDE THE CUP HOLDERS. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I HAD PURCHASED IT LESS THAN ONE MONTH PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT. THEY SAID THE ENTIRE PIECE WHICH INCLUDED THE CUP HOLDERS, TRAY, & GEAR SHIFT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED FOR $500 AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT SINCE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I HAD PAID $2500 FOR DID NOT COVER IT. SO I NOT ONLY GOT INJURED, BUT I'M STUCK WITH THE BILL AND CANNOT EVEN WORK WITH MY SPECIAL NEEDS CLIENT UNTIL IT GETS REPLACED SINCE I CAN'T PUT HIM IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS JEEP ONLY HAD 28,232 MILES ON IT AND WAS IN GOOD SHAPE WHEN I BOUGHT IT ON 1/25/16, SO THIS NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED. IF THE CUP HOLDERS COULD HAVE BEEN REMOVED AND REPLACED SEPARATELY, IT WOULD HAVE SAVED ME A LOT OF MONEY AND TAKEN A LOT LESS TIME FOR THE MECHANICS TO REPLACE THEM. THIS WAS NOT THE KIND OF QUALITY I EXPECTED FOR A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE.

THE VEHICLE STALLS, LOSSES POWER AND THE ENGINE DIES IN THE APEX OF CORNERING BETWEEN 30-40 MPH. GAS TANK HAS BEEN HALF FULL TO FULL ON EVERY EVENT. VEHICLE HAS BEEN OWNED FOR OVER 2 YEARS WITH THIS OCCURRING 6 TIMES THAT HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED. WHEN THE VEHICLE 'DIES' THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES BOTH FAIL CAUSING AN EXTREME HAZARD. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO DEALER UPON EACH DOCUMENTED OCCURRENCE. DEALER IS 'UNABLE TO REPLICATE' SO THEREFORE UNABLE TO ASSIST. MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN CONTACTED NUMEROUS TIMES WITH THE SAME RESULT.

VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT A CONSTANT SPEED OF 70MPH WITH FOOT ON THE THROTTLE PEDAL. TRAFFIC FROM AN ON-RAMP FORCED A QUICK/SUDDEN STOP (QUICK TRANSITION FROM THROTTLE PEDAL TO BRAKE PEDAL). THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS COMPLETELY FROZEN AND WOULD NOT DEPRESS FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME (VEHICLE WOULD NOT DECELERATE). FORCED DRIVER TO SWERVE OFF THE FREEWAY, AND NEARLY CRASHED. NON-EMERGENCY (QUICK THROTTLE TO BRAKE TRANSITION) BRAKING IS STILL FUNCTIONAL. THE SITUATION WAS ABLE TO BE RECREATED BY BOTH THE DRIVER AND THE SERVICE TECH AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THAT THE ISSUE IS PRESENT ON FOUR OTHER VEHICLES (ONE 2011, ONE 2012, AND TWO 2013'S) ON THEIR SALES LOT, AS WELL AS THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION. DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THIS HAS NOTHING TO DUE WITH RECALL P05 (SIMILAR SCENARIO). DEALERSHIP SUBMITTED A CASE TO FCA. FCA HAD THEM REPLACE VACUUM LINES, ANOTHER BRAKE BOOSTER, AND THE VACUUM PUMP. THE ISSUE WAS STILL PRESENT. FCA TOLD THEM THEY COULD, AT THE EXPENSE OF THE CONSUMER, TRY TO SPLICE SOME VACUUM LINES AND SEE IF THE ISSUE GOES AWAY. AT THE ADVICE OF THE DEALERSHIP, CUSTOMER DENIED "TROUBLESHOOTING" ON THEIR VEHICLE. FCA TOLD DEALER THIS ISSUE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE P14 RECALL THAT WAS REPLACED A WEEK PRIOR (REPLACED TWICE) ON THE SAME VEHICLE (BRAKE BOOSTER), AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL. DEALERSHIP IS NOW GIVING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE CUSTOMER WITH THIS CONDITION STILL PRESENT.
