More info on the brake issue...
Brakes seem just fine after a short break (vehicle off, etc).
Drive for about 15+ minutes, and the pedal starts feeling more solid (it should be noted, pedal feels just fine ordinarily, and booster was replaced a month ago).
Then the brakes start obviously impeding forward progress. Ie, they are dragging.
Gets worse with continued driving. But if I stop (like at the drugstore to pick up medicine yesterday), and get back in the vehicle, all is just fine again.
During that drugstore stop yesterday, brakes were smelling hot. I used an IR temp gun to check the temperatures of the rotors... Approx 350-400 at each wheel. So this is not simply a bad caliper or a bad line. Chances of multiple of any of those going bad and faking a 'systemic' failure, are astronomical... So it pretty much has to go back to the MC (and maybe even that brand-new Booster, but I'm at a loss as to how that would give these symptoms).
EVERYTHING in the brake system except for the hard lines and MC has been replaced in the last year or so. So, pads (service and emergency brake), soft lines, booster, calipers F&R, hardware, everything, is about 6 months old.
System was properly bled 2 weeks ago, by an actual Jeep mechanic (my son), at the dealership.
