Jeep Grand Cherokee and Durango Brake Module Fault
high How serious is it? About this label
A vehicle that starts and shifts out of Park without the brake pedal applied can roll away on its own, and disabled antilock brakes and stability control can reduce handling and control. Brake lights that turn on incorrectly can also fail to warn traffic behind. Any of these can increase the risk of a crash. The notice does not tell owners to stop driving.
