| Description of the problem | I have a 2014 jeep cherokee trailhawk i started my car today and i have a "park brake service" message my parking brake is stuck and i can release it. After inspection i found my trunk full of water and found my brake control module full of water and corrode it. I call the dealer and they said they never heard about any issues like this and there is not recall for this issue, after checking online looks like is a common problem for this car models and i cant believe is not a recall for water getting into your jeep cherokee trunk. This is a major safety hazard for drivers because this can happen even when you driving your car in the middle of the highway. I hope nhtsa look into this safety issue and have it resolve with jeep. |
