Something went wrong with my breaks :-(
From the time I got the Jeep when I would start to slow down, I would feel the breaks loosen and then catch hold again, well this is my first car with ABS so I thought maybe it was the ABS, then a few weeks ago I read about the recall for the breaks, but I thought ohh well I will just wait for my next oil change and find out about it.
Well yesterday while slowing down for a speed bump the breaks did that catch then loosen thing, and I heard a snap like a spring breaking, and then the car sort of glided over the speed bump, but then it went back to acting like it usually does and I thought maybe I had run over a bolt or something.
Well this morning on the way to work I went to slow down for a school zone from 40mph to 20mph and it did the same loosen catch thing, but it went a while before it caught again, it was kind of scary, then I also noticed that when at a stop light the break peddle slowly releases all the way to the floor board. So that tells me something is just not right :-(
I’m going to call the dealer as soon as they open to tell them I am bringing it in today.
