Brake System; Electronic Brake Control System - Jeep grand cherokee Owner's Manual

CAUTION!
If the "Brake" Warning Light remains on with the
parking brake released, a brake system malfunction
is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately.

BRAKE SYSTEM

Your vehicle is equipped with dual hydraulic brake
systems. If either of the two hydraulic systems loses
normal capability, the remaining system will still func-
tion. However, there will be some loss of overall braking
effectiveness. You may notice increased pedal travel
during application, greater pedal force required to slow
or stop, and potential activation of the "Brake System
Warning Light."
In the event power assist is lost for any reason (i.e.,
repeated brake applications with the engine off) the
brakes will still function. However, the effort required to
brake the vehicle will be much greater than that required
with the power system operating.

ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM

Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic
brake control system that includes the Anti-Lock Brake
System (ABS), Traction Control System (TCS), Brake
Assist System (BAS), Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM),
and Electronic Stability Control (ESC). All five of these
systems work together to enhance vehicle stability and
control in various driving conditions.
Also, your vehicle may be equipped with Trailer Sway
Control (TSC), Hill Start Assist (HSA), Ready Alert
Braking (RAB), Rain Brake Support (RBS) and, if it has
four-wheel drive with the MP 3023 two-speed transfer
case, Hill Descent Control (HDC), Selec Speed Control
(SSC).
