1 Power Assist Brake Vacuum problem

Failure Date: 02/17/2007

My Chrysler 300m loses its power brakes when its cold. The power booster seems to be the problem only when its cold.

2 Power Assist Brake Vacuum problem

Failure Date: 01/20/2003

Complete brake failure due to a mechanical break down of the vacum assist unit. Similar to below previous complaint in 2002. What bothers me is that the part is on back order and seems to be in great demand across the country. When it goes - you have no brakes! luckily I was in a parking lot at work and no accident occured.
