The problem
On certain sport utility vehicles, front brake calipers in a certain lot May have been manufactured from gray iron instead of ductile iron as designed and could fracture without warning.
The risk
This would increase the vehicle's stopping distance and could cause a crash.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the front brake calipers to see if they fall into this lot and, if so, will replace them free of charge. The recall began on October 22, 2007. Owners May contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
