Description of the problem	On one of the first cold days of the year while driving in a parking lot trying to come to a stop for a yellow light out of the lot my pregnant wife suddenly noticed she had no braking capability in her 2013 jeep grand cherokee. Luckily there was not much traffic and she was able to continue through the light then coast it to a slow enough speed to throw on the parking brake and put it into park. We had the vehicle towed to midas where they discovered the brake booster had failed. After researching the issue we found safety recall p14 / nhtsa 14v-154 which had previously recalled this part for this exact problem. The local jeep dealer informed us that our vehicle had accomplished this recall and the part was replaced june 21, 2014. Little over 2 years later (dec 15, 2016), the brake booster has already failed again on our vehicle with only 52,058 miles. Clearly the remedy for the initial recall did not solve the problem, so not only am i out ~700 dollars for the repair, but i don't know when the brakes will go out next. Will it be on a rainy day when my wife is driving down a busy highway with my child in the car?
