Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On a hard stop the brake pedal went to the floor and the brake light came on. i took my jeep the dealer, and they had to replace a rusted brake line that failed when i made the panic stop. i called chrysler, and they said that there were no service bulletins or problems with other jeep grand cherokees regarding brake lines rusting out and leaking fluid causing brake failure. chrysler replied that since my jeep was out of warranty, they would not reimburse me for the replacement of the rusted brake line. this is not only a financial issue, but a serious safety issue. chrysler needs to notify others of this potential safety problem. *tr
