I took my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee into the dealership to have two recalls addressed, both regarding the brakes, I believe. Upon working on the vehicle, the master cylinder "fell apart, " accordion to the service advisor. The master cylinder is on nationwide backorder, and I will be in a rental until "mid-November 2014." Really" this is unacceptable. How does a master cylinder "fall apart""

I have a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee srt. I was at a stop light in the turn left lane. Once the light changed green I pressed accelerator and while turning all power cut out on the vehicle. While in traffic I coasted to the side of the road. The vehicle restarted after I can to a full stop power appeared to come back on and I pushed the start button with foot on brake. Second event happened 9/10/14 again I was in the left hand turn lane (different street) and when light changed I pressed accelerator and while starting the turn all power instantly went out rendering the vehicle totally disabled in traffic. Once I got it into a safe spot I called and tried to have it jump started. This did not work at all. Total power failure no response and had to be towed to dealer. Very dangerous situations.
