My Jeep was great until 125,000 miles and we'll here we go. . . First I thought my brakes were going out and had the pads replaced, then they started "sticking" or so I thought, almost causing me to lose control going 65mph. The brakes still are not safe in my opinion after every part was replaced. I just had the hoses to the steering pump replaced and the problem still persists, only now my engine is idling at 1200 rpms in park? please help. . $1000 later and I'm no better off. Thanks. The vehicle is currently smoking under the hood and emits a strong smell of brake fluid. Also it struggles to get up hills with rpms at 2500 going only 55mph. I may be a woman but I know my car and I know it's very dangerous, whatever it may be.

All 4 wheel brakes werr bad, $600 bad. I never heard any squealing, pulsing, anything indicating the brakes were going, inspection people all said they seemed okay. I decided to bring it in to a non-dealer due to having 48000 on the oem pads. Pads were shot, rotors scored, etc. $600 later, all seemed okay anyone else not have any indicators of brakes going bad?.

2004 Jeep Liberty. Rear brake disc. Took the vehicle to the firestone dealer, and showed them the disc plate. Rotors. They were only grooves on the outside of the plate, and the inside of the plate was smooth and clean. Called the manufacturer, and they said since vehicle had 16,000 miles on it they could not replace them unless the dealer said it was a defect. The manufacturer said consumer had to pay for the inspection as well as the repairs. Dealer would make a determination whether or not that it was a defect or not. There was not brake pad failure, it could have been a caliper failure. I had new rotors and new brake pads put in at the cost $350. 00 plus tax.
