| Component | SERVICE BRAKES |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The emergency brake on my 2010 wrangler does not hold the vehicle on any sort of incline. The virginia code for a parking/ emergency brake states that it must stall the vehicle in 2nd gear (it does) but the brake will not maintain the position of the vehicle on the slightest incline. I'm concerned that the vehicle may roll away into the road and cause harm to others. Furthermore, if i were to be in the vehicle then i may become trapped with it rolling in to traffic. This is a common issue on the early 2007-2017 body style wrangler and needs attention before it causes serious harm. |
