Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings Problems of Jeep Liberty

The rear brake lines are mounted in such a way that they rub against the fuel lines as well as the transmission cooler line. This caused the break line to leak and the brakes to become non functional. Fortunately I was able to notice this before a crash. My wife would not have been so lucky as she may have not noticed this. I had this happen as I was driving in traffic, and consider myself fortunate that I was able to get off the road.
