Jeep Grand Cherokee Service Brakes, Hydraulic Foundation Components Disc Rotor Safety Report | July 25, 2004
Reported on July 25, 2004
APPLYING BRAKES LIGHTLY AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 45 MPH CAUSES VEHICLE TO VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY AND PULL OFF A STRAIGHT LINE. THE VIBRATION HAS BEEN INCREASING FOR SOMETIME BUT THE PULLING CAUSED ME TO HAVE A MECHANIC INSPECT THE VEHICLE DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS IF THE BRAKES WERE REQUIRED IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THE JEEP SERVICE CENTER CLAIMED WARPING OF THE ROTORS AS THEY HAVE FOR ALL OTHER CASES. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFECTIVE PART.*AK | |
