Brake is too bad. Brake pedal too loose and touching the bottom before the vehicle comes to a halt. Is there any chance you could repair the brake?

I am sorry we do not do repairs, we offer assistance and advice on how to do your own repairs.
In your case I would start with a visual examination to look at the condition of the brake pads and lines, looking for worn parts or leaks. If no leaks and the parts are in good shape I would bleed the system and then replace the master cylinder if the same problem is still there.

Brake pads are good. No leaks. I drained and replaced the brake fluid to save the master cylinder but to no avail. Will replaced master cylinder.

Be sure to bench bleed it first. I would also suggest getting it from Jeep, it will cost a bit more but a lot of the rebuilt or new units are made in China, they seem to fail rapidly.
