IT STATED THAT "CONTACT AT FULL JOUNCE MAY CAUSE THE BRAKE TUBE TO COLLAPSE AND RESTRICT THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE FLUID PRESSURE TO THE LEFT REAR BRAKE WHICH AFFECTS THE BRAKING CAPABILITY OF THE VEHICLE." THIS WAS QUOTED FROM THIS SITE. I READ THE DOCUMENTS THAT WERE LINKED, AND EVEN THOUGH MY VIN DOES NOT PULL UP THE RECALL, WHICH I HAVE GONE TO A DEALER UPON BUYING MY VEHICLE AND HAD THEM MAKE SURE ALL RECALLS WERE PERFORMED. THEY DID NOT SAY I NEEDED THE RECALL REFERENCED. MY JEEP DOES MEET ALL THE OTHER PARTS OF THE RECALL IN TERMS OF WHAT VEHICLES WERE AFFECTED. *TR
