CHRYSLER SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR FAILING TO ISSUE BETTER AND PERMANENT RECALLS FOR THIS CAR. THIS VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS! I WAS DRIVING MY CHRYSLER AND TRIED TO STOP FOR SOME KIDS CROSSING THE STREET BUT THE BRAKES SUDDENLY GAVE OUT AND BECAME VIRTUALLY INOPERABLE AND I HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID KILLING THESE KIDS! I HAD TO PUSH THE BRAKES AS HARD AS I COULD JUST TO GET THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN, LET ALONE COMPLETELY STOP. I LATER LEARNED AND WAS ABLE TO FIND SOME RECALLS THAT THIS MODEL USES ELECTRIC POWER BRAKES AND THE PUMP AND MASTER CYLINDER BECOME FAULTY. APPARENTLY, THE MASTER CYLINDER AND ACCUMULATOR ASSEMBLY HAS A SEAL THAT LEAKS PRESSURE AND CAUSES THE ELECTRIC BRA
