What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that when applying the brake pedal, the brakes would squeal and emit a burning odor. In addition, when attempting to park, the brakes would emit a squeal noise and the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard. The vehicle was towed to the glendale chrysler dealer where it was diagnosed the vehicle's caliber, router, and rear brakes failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.
When I'm driving the jeep, it does not matter if I going up or going down on a hill and I apply the brakes and stop, they stay applied and not released.
