Recalls seem to be more in vogue than usual for automakers these days.
Just a few hours after the news broke that Honda was recalling almost 200,000 Civics due to problems with wheel bearings, reports have surfaced that Chrysler is sallying forth with a massive recall of their own.
Almost 300,000 Chrysler SUVs including Jeep Cherokee, Commander, and Wrangler, as well as the Dodge Nitro are being recalled for potential problems with braking while driving uphill.
It seems that Chrysler has received about 20 complaints of vehicles not stopping immediately after the brakes were applied while coasting uphill. While coasting up a hill may not occur daily for many drivers, we tend to think that braking on any part of a hill is vital.
As with any recall, certainly one regarding a system as important as a vehicle’s brakes, we would recommend that effected owners have service preformed on the quick. Safe driving.
