Chrysler Group LLC is recalling Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs to shield or replace brake boosters that could corrode and make braking more difficult.
The campaign covers 867,800 2011-2014 models. Chrysler says crimp joints in the brake boosters may rust, allowing water to enter the unit and reduce its ability to provide brake assist.
Chrysler notes it has begun adding an anti-corrosion coating on brake boosters in current production vehicles.
