I received the brake booster recall notice a couple of months ago. I took my jeep to the dealership for an oil change and mentioned the recall so it could be inspected. Upon leaving I was told they had to order parts which were on back order and would be a couple of months. I was under the impression that my vehicle was still safe to drive, but wednesday july 2nd the booster failed during rush hour at highway speeds. I was very lucky not to hit/injure/kill anyone as traffic slowed and I couldn't. I managed to get to the shoulder and coast to a stop, but what if I couldn't? Of all things to fail on a vehicle the brakes shouldn't be one. If my vehicle wasn't safe to drive then I never should of been sent out of the dealer with it. I am now stuck in a rental while I wait for my vehicle to be repaired with no eta. I contacted jeep customer service, but have not received a response.

Received safety recall notice for brake booster on jeep grand cherokee's in late may. Dealers near me still do not have parts to perform recall service. First called dealer in late may and again july 7 and they still said they are waiting for parts from chrysler. Recall notice releases should have all parts available to perform recalls especially in case of potential brake failures due to malfunctions yet I can't get the issue corrected due to no parts available.

Recall p14 / the federal safety agency 14v‑154 I received this recall notice approximately june 15th, and today, july 2, called my local dealership to take care of this recall and install the needed parts. I was told there are "no parts available yet for this recall". What? You send out a recall notice for a potentially dangerous break malfunction... And there are no parts available yet? The serviceman at martin swanty dodge/chrysler/jeep in kingman, arizona told me that another recall notice will be sent when the parts become available... Really? I hope parts become available before an accident may occur!

I was informed of recall from the local chicago news. Called dealership few weeks later, because I had not received the recall notice via mail yet. They informed me that they had not been given notice about it either. Week later received the notice in the mail. Week later went to dealership to have work done and was informed they didn't have the parts, and would not have the parts until august of 2014. I went home and called chrysler and they said that the dealership should have the parts in two weeks. Now three weeks later I just called the dealership and they still don't have the parts and again was told that they would not have the parts until august again. I called chrysler again and they only said that my case has been escalated and that I would be informed/called by dealer and/or chrysler when the dealer can do the work. What the blank, blank is going on?????

I have tried to start my car several times with just continuous cranking. I called two different jeep dealerships and they said they have never heard of this issue before. Yesterday, I was driving down the street at 55 MPH with my 5 month old in the car after daycare- and my car just shut off while driving and I almost crashed into the person in front of me!!!! Very scary. I had to swerve to miss the person in front of me because the brakes and car were not working- just completely shut off. I finally got it started again and got to a safe location. I then had it towed. I did some research to find that this is a very common issue with 2011 jeep grand cherokees and chrysler refuses to do a recall on this. Are they insane?!!! We could have been in a serious accident. If the car is not under warranty- the price to fix the issue is $1300+. I just purchased this car in november of 2013 because I thought it would be safe for me and my new baby. Now I have to dish out $1300 because of a faulty part that chrysler refuses to fix? They are very aware of the tipm not performing on these models- please research all the forums that talk about this. There is already lawsuits pending. Please advise on what to do at this point. I do not have this kind of money to fix a car with 39000 miles on it. I will never purchase a jeep or chrysler again.

Purchased 2011 jeep grand cherokee overland used in summer of 2012. 3rd jeep and have stayed with jeep because felt they were a safe reliable car. Shortly after purchase the car would sound like it was "computing" near the engine--while off and key not near car. Told this was normal. Alarm started to go off for no reason, day time running light on driver side stopped working (not bulb) and started working a few days later on its own. Car no start or hard start several times. Check engine lights on and off, key not found, etc. 5/19/14 exiting highway at approx. 75 MPH (59,000 miles) brakes don't work. Car slows but won't stop. No light illuminated for brake problem. It was petrifying. Called dealer in morning and they indicated not warranty and not recall so ordered brake booster from dealer and replaced. Was without vehicle for several days. 5/28/14 driving approx. 75 on highway--dash lights flash, car shakes and shudders uncontrollably, screen reads service air suspension system and etc code. Exit highway car has no suspension. Stop make phone call and restart car and no lights, warnings, and suspension back. Driving 35 MPH on busy city street (in front of school) car dash flashes and goes black--a red lightning bolt appears and the car shuts off while driving. No brakes, power steering, hazard lights, suspension, etc. I was terrified! Pushed down accelerator and car starts back up (similar to depressing gas peddle on golf cart). Took to dealer and they replaced a brake sensor and the suspension worked. Said they could not replicate the car shutting off while driving. Tipm must be the cause based on 1000s of owners comment. Filed complaint with chrysler today. Frightened for my safety and the safety of other cars, people, etc. Drive over 100 miles per day on highway. Can't obtain tipm part. Must use car to work but safety concerns with driving.

Got a recall letter and took it to my jeep dealership to get it fixed. The dealership said we do not have the parts and it could be months before they do.
