What Happened
The brake tubes in your Wrangler are like the blood vessels that help your brakes work. Over time, they could get worn down by the front and rear fender liners, which could cause brake fluid to leak out.
Risk if Unfixed
If the brake fluid leaks, the brake at one of your wheels might not work properly, making it harder to stop the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Chrysler dealer will inspect and repair the brake tubes for free, so schedule an appointment as soon as you get the recall notice.

What Happened
