| Description of the problem | Attempted to stop at a traffic light and the brakes would not work. Brake pedal went all the way to the floor but nothing happened. Tried pumping but nothing. Ended up running the red light and was not able to get it to stop until i had crossed through all the lanes to the other side. Brakes started working after crossing the street and continued to work until taken back to jeep service. They replaced the master cylinder and brake fluid. Found internal failure of brake master cylinder, installed new one and bleed master cylinder. Evidently there was a recall on the 2010 master cylinders but my jeep did not receive a recall notice. How do i know that the master cylinder was replaced with a new type and not the same style master cylinder that failed. *js |
