Grand Cherokee 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,668 miles
The steel brake line running under the passenger compartment of the auto corroded causing a complete and sudden loss of brake fluid for the rear brakes. The brake line corroded where it came in contact with a white plastic clip intended to secure and locate the brake line.

Brake line rusted thru, resulting in complete loss of brakes. Line is rusted wherever a clip holds it to the chassis. Other spots ready to rust through. Mfg. Refuses to pay for repair or consider the catastrophic safety issue this involves. Claim it is due to elements.....whole line is not rusted through, only where clip holds it. Car was driven normally, under same conditions others face, this could be a catastrophic failure causing death. Certainly your brake line should not fail after 2.5 years with normal use. If the elements caused it, are the cars not supposed to be driven outside. Could be a reaction between the clip and the line caused by salt, but there are a lot of people driving through salt in the winter. They may die.
