Brakes Failed problems of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler

I parked the Jeep, set the emergency brake and put the vehicle in gear, with engine off. While inside the business lobby, the Jeep started to roll backward into a busy roadway. The Jeep gain speed due to the incline. And I desperately attempted to stop the Jeep, before it could roll-away onto the busy roadway and cause injuries or fatalities. I was ran over by my Jeep � during my desperate and unsuccessfull attempt to stop the roll-away Jeep. The Jeep stoped, after crashing into an electrical utilities pole at the curb-side. I suffered severe damage to my leg requiring immediate emergency medical attention. The Jeep was taken to a Chrysler dealer, for an inspection. While the Jeep was in the dealership, Chrysler sent out a private contractor to inspect the vehicle. As part of the inspection, the occupant restraint controller (orc) crash-data was retrieved. I made several requests to Chrysler, for a copy of the final inspection report. And was repeatedly denied the (orc) data, retrieved from my Jeep Wrangler. The Chrysler dealer had to replace the front axle of the Jeep. The out-of-pocket cost for the repair was $6,859. 92. Also, I had the Jeep taken to different Jeep-Chrysler dealer, for a second inspection. After performing diagnostics, the certified mechanic confirmed that the emergency brakes, while engaged � would not hold the vehicle. The e-brake was replaced at out-of-pocket cost of $1,138. 41. The failure mileage, for the 2013 Jeep Wrangler rubicon was 46,600. The 2011 NHTSA database posted Chrysler recall no. B03also, for Jeep Wrangler roll aways resulting from parking brake assembly failures. However, the probem has not been corrected and continues after recalls. This is a serious, and very dangerous safety issue � in that you can see these vehicles turning into un-guided missles. And doing damage to people and property, as a result of parking brake failures.

The contact owns a 2013 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that when applying the brake pedal, the brakes would squeal and emit a burning odor. In addition, when attempting to park, the brakes would emit a squeal noise and the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard. The vehicle was towed to the glendale Chrysler dealer where it was diagnosed the vehicle's caliber, router, and rear brakes failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened case number: 31801254 and informed the contact that repair was not covered under warranty. The approximate failure mileage was 12,000.

The parking brake fails to hold the vehicle unless pulled to it's very maximum point and even then the hold is not strong. Brake has been adjusted several times, but the issue still persists.
