Jeep Recalls SUVs Due to Faulty Brakes

Jeep is recalling 28,755 Commanders and Grand Cherokees from the 2007 and 2008 model years to replace front-brake parts that can fail. Both SUVs could have brakes made of the wrong type of metal, which can fracture, making the time it takes to stop increase to an unsafe rate. No accidents or injuries have been reported.

The Jeeps included in the recall were made between May 17 and July 13 of this year. Brakes will be replaced at no cost, and concerned owners can call 800-853-1403 for more information.

This follows on the heels of last week’s recall of more than 156,000 Grand Cherokees and Commanders for other brake issues.

I love how things have changed at the Chrysler Corp. ever since it got back into American hands...

yeah. we all know americans suck and are horrible at everything. by gar the worse civilization ever. so greedy that they thought they could save a penny by using a different material and now they are spending a dollar in this recall. dumbasses.

I think Juan Carlos should move.

i was being sarcastic. would never buy an import short of being brand-new and fully loaded and for a a thousand dollars. or if i buy at full-price, it must be made here. i would think about the camry, but never a lexus.

but let's face it, many americans fell like that and they are serious unlike me. you put the blue oval on the cmary and is a horrible car that is worthless. you put the H on the cobalt and rocks.

LOL,
Juan I have to agree with you on the last part. I would and have bought domestic, Japanese, and European cars though. They all have their own pros and cons.

pepy, you do know that chrysler was still german when they made this? right? right?
