What Happened
The brake booster shield in your vehicle is a protective cover that prevents water from getting into the brake system. It's a safety feature added to some 2011-2014 Dodge Durangos and Jeep Grand Cherokees to maintain effective braking.
Risk if Unfixed
If the shield wasn't installed correctly, your vehicle's braking ability could be reduced, making it harder to stop quickly, which increases the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Chrysler dealer will inspect the brake booster shield to ensure it was installed correctly. If not, they'll fix it for free, and you'll get a notification when the repair is ready.
