When you place the vehicle in park it rolls which is very dangerous. You go to step out of the vehicle and it is rolling, yikes!! Can't reach anyone at Jeep.
Parking brake cable adjustment nut loosened itself, which caused park brake cable to fall out of connector underneath center console, causing park/emergency brake to completely fail. I reinstalled cable into bracket, set adjustment nut to manufacturer specification, and the park brake worked properly again. A few weeks later the adjustment nut once again loosened itself, causing the cable to dislodge and causing the park brake to fail once again. At this point I replaced the lock nut with an aftermarket fastener and brake is once again working as designed.
