InvisiBrake Broken Bolt

Recently we had the InvisiBrake installed on the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Yesterday, as we were getting ready to go grab some grub I noticed half a broken bolt on the driver's side floor.

Here is what found

and upon looking further I found the InvisiBrake pedal clamp loose and out of its installed location.

I contacted the installing dealer (Camping World) and sent them these pics and am waiting to hear back from them.

Bottom line, add bolt checking to the before, during and after ops checks for trip planning.

Luckily we were not towing the Jeep when this happened.
