1997 Jeep Wrangler Brakes Problems

“While driving on route 93 in boston, ma on a rainy day at 6 am. I braked and swerved to avoid a car and the back brakes on 97 Jeep Wrangler locked and the back end came around and I it the zipper lane barrier. I ended up facing traffice in the wrong direction in the high speed lane.”

“On a maintained dirt county road the brakes on my 1997 Jeep Wrangler failed to stop my car causing a rear end collision with another car.I could feel the pulsing of the ABS brakes but the car refused to slow down,it pulled me into the car infront of me.”

“Driving down the road the rear upper control arm brackets separated from the frame as a result of the frame corroding from the inside out. This caused the rear brake line to brake draining the master cylinder.”

“Dt: while driving at various speeds and road conditions the front brakes locked. When the brakes lock the wheels skidded either to the right or left, but more often to the right. Had been to the dealer numerous times. No repairs were done because dealer determined nothing was wrong. Called chrysler, and tried to speak to an engineer and they did not wish to talk to consumer. Vehicle was involved in several crashes.”

“Hard brake line leading to the rear axle burst with a loss of braking. Brake line, as it passed over the frame near the front wheel well was severely rusted and crumbling. When removing the line for replacement the line also broke in half at one of the clips mounted on the frame.”
