Lots of snow on ground, freezing weather. Pulled vehicle out of driveway to clear snow from drive. Parked the vehicle on the edge of the road at the end of my driveway. After I had cleared a spot for the Jeep Liberty, my wife moved it back in the drive. She didn't stop until the vehicle collided with the garage. I saw the brake lights on, but it didn't stop. I questioned her to what happened, she said the brakes didn't work. I tested it myself by backing away from the garage and found out that she was correct. The brakes didn't work. It had a firm pedal, but the brakes did not apply. Like almost if they were frozen. Being a mechanic for almost 40 years, I never experienced anything like it. I talked to the salesperson whom I purchased it from, he informed me that he no longer works for the dealer and just park it in a warm garage that would take care of it. I talked to the service department of the dealer and they said that they never heard of it and for me to drive it to them to check it out. If it don't stop in a 30 foot driveway, I certainly wont drive it down a busy road to the dealer. They said that I have to bring it in. What a crock. Its unsafe. I am as of now trying to contact the sales manager of the dealership to see if he will give me some help. My wife refuses to ride in this vehicle until we are certain that the brake problem will be taken care of properly. The vehicle has only 3,350 miles on it and is only 3 1/2 months old. There was no ice on the driveway I had cleared the snow off onto the bare cement. So that was not an issue.
