Both times I was slowing down for a red light and almost rear ended another car. I felt the brakes failed and the car seemed to accelerate and or the gas pedal stuck. I called Jeep and they said there was no recall/issues and I saw where my year/model was reported to have a recall for a brake issue.
Went for my normal oil change and rotate tires at the dealer. The service writer came out to inform me I need rear barkes as they have worn down and the rotor needs to be turned as it is out of round. I told them how could the rear be out in 12600 miles and the front barkes are good. If they are that worn why is there no warning to let me know as it is unsafe and I could have brake failure. They told me many Chrysler vans as well as some 2009 and 2010 have a defect in the brakes that cause them to fail way sooner then they should. I paid almost $400 for the back brakes to be done and called Chrysler corp and made a case. They agreeded that it should not have failed at that low mileage and others have done also. I am going to get a total refund for what I spend after many calls to get it paid by them as I feel it is a unsafe condition that many other products they make have the same problems and why I should paid for a defect in their brake systems. I asked in the next 12000 miles if they wear out again will they repir the problem again and she said no. It is not fair or safe to have a Jeep that will keep having the rear brakes wear out way before time and a unsafe condition too. I called a few barke rotor mfg. Companies and they told me also they have a major defect in their brake systems as the weight of them as certain Jeeps and vans is way too much for the brak system they have on the rears and fronts. I also see class action law suits against them on this brakes wear out problems on 2009 and 2010 vans that are in a Dodge journey bulletin wb-d-11-07 and it is the same as my defect but they said it does not cover the Jeep Liberty but will refund my money once for the cost I paid. I am now afraid my brakes will fail and cause a accident. They don`t seem to care to go any further other then pay me back my money for the failed barkes in the rear one time only. . . .
We own a Jeep Liberty 2010 that is covered under a brake recall NHTSA campaign id number: 10v009000 . We called the dealership and the company and were told they were not honoring this recall we are very concerned since it says the brakes may suddenly fail and don't understand why the company is not doing this recall as announced.
