XJ Brake question
« on: May 20, 2006, 11:26:15 PM »
As the `new` owner of a 4.0 `98 XJ I`m led to believe there was a `brake recall` which I`m pretty convinced my vehicle missed. What was the recall for? I only ask as my brakes do squeal a bit now and then.
  Anyone shed some light on it for me? :?:

for rust building up inside the rotor causing them to shear off the hub, ring up your local dealer with the vin and they should tell you

cheers guys, as I suspected the work wasn`t carried out. Am I still eligible to have it done FOC by jeep? I could try emailing jeep and see what the reaction is.
If not then I`ll buy new rotors and pads and fire them on myself. :?

It's the A05 recall. If eligible, they'll do the discs FOC but you'll have to pay for pads if they are worn.
