Detroit Free Press reported that Chrysler LLC has recalled nearly 300,000 SUVs due to brake problems while driving up hill. "The recall involves more than 156,000 Jeep Grand Cherokees and Commander SUVs from the 2006-2007 model years, more than 90,000 2007 Jeep Wrangler SUVs and nearly 50,000 2007 Dodge Nitro SUVs. The automaker had received about 20 complaints of vehicles experiencing a delay in braking when drivers tried to come to a stop after coasting uphill. To fix the problem, the computer connected to the anti-lock brake system will be reprogrammed."
