Description of the problem	On saturday 3/11/2017 i attempted to back my jeep down and out of my driveway. I immediately noticed that the brakes felt strange, and that as i depressed the pedal the jeep was not stopping. Confused, i hit the e-brake to stop the jeep and attempted to pump the brake pedal several times to see if there was resistance. The pedal felt better, but i could hear a hising sound, like a vacuum leak. I went on line and saw that there was a recall for the brake system for my vehicle, which coincidentally was the same problem i had experienced. What caught my attention was that the recall mentioned water intrusion into the brake booster and the potential for freezing and reducing the braking effectiveness. I live in pittsburgh, pa, and for 3 days prior to my brake issue it had been rainy, and mild. Friday night 3/10, the temperature dropped and saturday morning 3/11 it was 20 deg f. I cant help but think the temperature, and moisture played a role in this incident. I'm just glad it happened right away instead of once i got out into traffic. The jeep is currently at jeep in moon township, pa for troubleshooting. ... Updated 04/11/17 bf .. Updated 06/06/17 bf *as
