What owners wrote
I got out of my car after a 20 minute drive from work and I could smell rubber burning. I stepped to the back of my jeep and could tell the smell was coming from the back driver side tire so I reached down and touched the wheel and it was so hot it burned by hand. It acted like the brake had locked while I was driving and working against my speed. This is an ongoing problem.
When driving over metal plates or small patches of ice front wheels lock and make steering impossible if brakes are being applied. This is happening at very low speed. I bought this jeep used.
