SERVICE BRAKES

Manufacturer

What Happened
The brake booster shield in your Dodge Durango or Jeep Grand Cherokee is a protective cover that keeps water out of your brake system. On certain 2011-2014 models, this shield was installed to prevent water damage.
Risk if Unfixed
If the shield wasn't installed correctly, it could reduce your vehicle's braking power, making it harder to stop. This could increase the risk of a crash, especially on wet or slippery roads.
Free Fix
Your Chrysler dealer will inspect the brake booster shield installation to make sure it's done right. If it's not, they'll correct it for free, so you can drive with peace of mind.
