    [size=15px]DETROIT Chrysler is recalling nearly 870,000 SUVs because corrosion may make the vehicles' brakes harder to use.[/size]
    [size=15px]Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from the 2011 through 2014 model years are involved. [/size][size=15px]Chrysler says crimp joints in the brake boosters can corrode if they are exposed to water. If the water freezes, the boosters won't aid braking as they usually do.[/size]


    [size=15px]Chrysler began investigating after some customers said their brakes felt too firm when pressed down. The company knows of one accident, but no injuries, due to the defect.[/size]


    [size=15px]Dealers will install a shield to protect the boosters for free and replace boosters that aren't working properly. [/size][size=15px]Chrysler has since changed the design to make the boosters more corrosion resistant.
