Description of the problem | My 2011 jeep grand cherokee brake booster failed. I am getting a "hissing" noise from the booster and my braking power has been reduced. The issue started during a real cold snap in the northeast... Not sure if the defect is related to this cold weather or not. After calling my dealership, it appears that the boosters are on backorder from an overwhelming need to have this part replaced. It seems that a lot of other people have had this problem during this cold winter. |
