Imagine this:

Safety Recall U86 / NHTSA 18V-523
Low Brake Pedal

2018 (JC) Dodge Journey
2018 - 2019 (RT) Dodge Caravan
2018 - 2019 (MP) Jeep Compass
2019 (KL) Jeep Cherokee

NOTE: This recall applies only to the above vehicles built from March 17, 2018
through June 21, 2018 (MDH 031706 through 062101).

The rear brake calipers on about 154,300 may have out-of-specification chrome
coating on the pistons, which may cause gas pockets to form in the brake system.
In some instances, the brake pedal may exhibit increased travel and/or feel soft
after vehicle start. Gas pockets in the brake system may result in a reduction in
rear brake performance, which can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.
Bleed the entire brake system to remove any gas pockets.

Part Number Qty. Description
04318080AD up to 3 Brake Fluid, DOT 3
(or up to 36 fluid ounces of equivalent DOT3 fluid that complies with
FMVSS116 or SAE J1703 - bill as “NPN”)

Recall came out about 3 weeks ago, WE (Chrysler dealers) got all the brake fluid!!! :D
Being browbeat for over 35 years now... First 13 years GM, then 20 years Chrysler... NOW BACK TO GM!! :|

We received our order Saturday morning as promised. Thanks GM, KemKrest, and all involved in a job well done. It would be great if things of this nature were always handled in such a speedy manner.

So are some of you getting "creative" when you run out the GM stuff?
