    I have a 2014 overland. I have 45k miles on it. We have had to have the brakes worked on 4 times already and they are still not right. I have replaced the rotors and pads and calipers along with hoses 3 times. The brakes are still running soft and not doing full contact with rotors. Can't get a handle on this. Don't know if it's the abs system or proportion device? Not sure what it is. Jump in and give me some opinions! In less than 7k I will have to repair or replace them again if no answers. Also I have the life time warr. on it and jeep will not do crap. Thank you.

    Could be air trapped in the ABS modulator. Most modulators have bleed screws. Modulators without bleed screws require a scan tool to activate the ABS solenoid while bleeding brakes. Only other idea I have is a bad master cylinder.
    Stuff like this keeps me awake at night, so keep us posted when you find solution.
