2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Problems & Complaints

I just bought a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the VIN number listed above. I saw that there was a recall where the dealer had to put on trailer hitches on the vehicle as without it if rear ended the gas tank could explode. I understand this is a older vehicle but do they not service recalls anymore for something like that??? It could explode it hit in the back. When I put my VIN in it says no outstanding recalls yet it does not or ever had a hitch on it for this repair. Any info on this is appreciated....Thanks

I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET RECALL R06 COMPLETED. ALL THE JEEP DEALERS SAID THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO GET THE NEEDED PARTS. THEY ARE ON A NATIONAL RECALL LIST. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP. THEY STATE THAT THE ORC MODULE AND OTHER ITEMS NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE RECALL CANNOT BE OBTAINED ANYWHERE AND THE DEALER'S SAID THAT THEY HAVE BEEN WAITING MONTHS FOR THE BACK ORDERED PARTS SO THE RECALL CAN BE COMPLETED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE COMPLETED ON THESE JEEPS. MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND THE PARTS NEEDED IS ON THE RECALL LIST R06 TO FIX IT. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS SAFETY ISSUE ASAP BEFORE SOMEONE GETS CRITICAL INJURIES. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.

I currently own 3 of the same vehicles myself, my husband and my son. Each of the vehicles have been experiencing electrical issues. I have taken all of the vehicles at some point back to the mechanic for repairs for this issue. It was only a temporary fix. Here are examples of some of the electrical issues. The blinkers and break lights may go out and not work while we are driving and some days they work just fine. But it has now become a safety hazard because we never know when they will work and are afraid to be hit by another car from the rear. Another example is when I am driving down the street all of the sudden the windows will automatically roll down by themselves. These issues have put all of our safety at risk, especially while we are driving in high traffic areas such as Atlanta, Georgia. The problem was acessed by our auto mechanic on all three (3) vehicles. They are are 1999-2000, 2001 & 2002 Grand Cherokee one of the vehicles is a limited edition. There are no warning signs or symptoms and the check engine light is not on any of the vehicles.

The contact owns a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V046000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The local dealer was contacted several times and advised the contact that the part was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The contact was awaiting a response from the manufacturer. The failure mileage was approximately 137,849. Parts distribution disconnect.

Taillight on back passenger side won't work, steering has been bad since I had, steering linkage and suspension failing, emergency brake doesn't work, cruise control won't work, oil pressure always reads high, airbag light stays on n seatbelt light stays on if I don't turn key on n let sit for an few seconds before starting jeep, gas pedal sticks , power steering fluid is leaking bad, steering linkage close to breaking heard noise so I pulled over. Also shocks bad, when hit an small bump it sounds like whole front end breaks

The contact owns a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, the front passenger’s side airbag inadvertently deployed without warning. The contact was able to drive the vehicle home. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 206,000.

While driving, airbags deployed on both the passager and driver's side. The car is available for inspection. The vehicle is with the dealership and awaiting repair. My safety was put at risk, the incident occurred while I was operating the vehicle. No other damage except to the vehicle itself, damaging my property. There were no notices, warnings or other symptoms of the problem.

I have air bag module not working and dealer keeps say part back order for months now and can’t get repaired and can’t get Jeep inspected till this is fixed brylea Jeep,Chrysler in Rutland Vermont Is dealer working with for it

The contact owns a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while the vehicle was turned off, there was an abnormal sound coming from the dashboard. Additionally, while driving at various speeds, the speedometer failed to display the correct speed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was informed of a leak in the EVAP system. The contact was also informed that the vehicle control sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer nor the manufacturer had been notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 205,000.

I brought in my car in to Roger Williams Chrysler in Weatherford TX, 1102 Washington Dr, Weatherford, TX 76086, for Safety Recall R06. The first appointment I dropped off the vehicle and received a rental, which was covered by FCA under the recall. A couple of days pass as they order parts and perform the maintenance. I return to my vehicle once they stated the Safety Recall was completed. The airbag light was still on, they couldn't tell me what DTC was associated with the light so I checked it myself. The DTC's were airbag DTC 54 and 55 (Side impact sensor internal fault). Safety Recall R06 instructs the dealership to replace impact sensors should they have any DTC's on them. R06 also states, at least twice, NOT to replace the front impact sensors, which they boasted and were proud about replacing. They stated "the tech has done hundreds of these recalls and always replaces the front sensors". I explained why I felt the recall maintenance was not completed to the tech when I picked up my vehicle. He maintained his narrative that the recall was satisfied and if I wanted them to look into it further it would be a minimum of $300.00. As weeks go by while I work with FCA customer care and the dealership service manager I am forced to drive a vehicle with faulty airbags. After several weeks and numerous phone calls and arguing I convinced the dealership to take another look at the vehicle. Upon their second look they initially maintained that the recall was satisfied and that the front sensors were replaced. I pleaded with the service manager once more to check the DTC's and review the NHTSA/FCA Safety Recall R06 instructions to replace the side impact sensors. They finally do, now the vehicles airbags are functioning and all is well. I just wonder, how many hundreds of WJ's are out there that had this maintenance done incorrectly and either don't know or didn't push hard enough to have it done correctly. How was this even able to get to this point?

The contact owns a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact became aware of the recall for NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V046000 (Air Bags) however, the dealer informed the contact that the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the air bag warning light had been illuminated since she purchased the vehicle. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 314,900. Parts distribution disconnect.

IN 2012 OR BEFORE, PRIOR TO WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON MARCH 20, 2012, THIS VEHICLE WAS SUBJECT TO A RECALL NOTICE. MANY TIMES, AND MOST RECENTLY IN AUGUST 2020, TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS HAVE NOT REPAIRED THE DEFECT, AND I HAVE BEEN ADVISED THE PART IS NOT "IN STOCK".

ONE MONDAY THE 6TH DRIVING NORTH. IT WAS RAINING. SO, I HAD FULL 4WHEEL DRIVE ENGAGED. A CAR CUT ME OFF. I WAS ON THE TRANSITION FROM THE 5 N TO THE 55N. A CAR FROM THE LEFT LANE CUT INTO MY LANE TO TRY AND EXIT ONTO 4TH STREET. TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT I SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS AND VEERED RIGHT. BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I PUSHING DOWN ON THE BREAKS AS HARD AS I COULD. THE CAR WAS STILL ACCELERATING AND DID NOT SLOW DOWN. TRYING TO OBTAIN CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE I "FISHTAILED" FROM GOING RIGHT BACK TO LEFT AND HIT THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND THEN HIT THE CENTER DIVIDER. THE CAR KEPT ACCELERATING AND I HIT THE CENTER DIVIDER AND FLIPPED AROUND. I WAS THEN FACING OPPOSITE TRAFFIC TOWARDS THE DIVIDER. I THREW THE CAR INTO PARK AND HELD THE BREAKS STRONG. THE BACK WHEELS WERE STILL SPINNING OUT. I LOOK DOWN AND THE KEYS WERE NOT IN THE IGNITION. LUCKILY, I HAD A SPARE KEY IN THE CENTER CONSOLE AND SHUT IT DOWN. I FOUND THE KEYS ON THE GROUND BUT NOT ANYWHERE NEAR THE PEDALS. I TALKED TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT. THE ONLY THING THEY COULD VERIFY IS THAT THE KEY COULD COME OUT WILE THE CAR IS STILL ON. ACCORDING TO THEM THIS HAPPENS AS THE KEY WEARS DOWN OR GETS OLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO HAVE A HITCH ATTACHED. THE MECHANIC REFERRED HIM TO THE DEALER FOR ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT CALLED MILITELLO MOTORS (1029 N STATE ST, FAIRMONT, MN 56031, (507) 238-4444) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN INSPECTED PER THE N47 CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION, AND THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED SAFE. THE CONTACT HAD NO RECOLLECTION OF BEING INFORMED OF SUCH INSPECTION TAKING PLACE ON HIS VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO SPOKE WITH THE MANUFACTURER WHO PROVIDED THE SAME INFORMATION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK REMAINED EXPOSED AND THE HAZARD COULD POTENTIALLY LEAD TO A FIRE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

WE WERE DRIVING INTO OUR PARKING STALL AT HOME WHEN OUR AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. AS WE REVERSED AND DROVE FORWARD TO STRAIGHTEN OUR CAR IN OUR STALL WE NOTICED THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURN ON SUDDENLY AND AIRBAGS AUTOMATICALLY DEPLOYED. OUR ENTIRE FAMILY WAS IN THE CAR AND KIDS ARE TRAUMATIZED. SUPER SCARY MOMENT, AND WHAT IF WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY!

AT START UP AIRBAG LIGHTS STAY ON I STOP AT THE STORE AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND START IT BACK UP THE AIRBAG LIGHTS ARE OFF. ISSUE 2. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND START UP A HILL IT DOWN SHIFTS OR HIGH RPMS A FUSE BLOWS.

FUEL TANK PROTECTION. I TOOK THIS IN FOR THE RECALL WHICH I ASSUMED THEY WHERE GOING TO INSTALL A TRAILER HITCH TO HELP PROTECT FORM REAR END COLLISION IN PACKING THE FUEL TANK. THEY SAID IT DIDN'T NEED ONE. SO NO ADDITIONAL PROTECTION WAS ADDED. I ALSO DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY HAVE THE GAS EVAPORATOR CANISTER BY THE BACK BUMPER. ITS FULL OF GAS VAPOR. USUALLY THESE ARE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. CHRYSLER SHOULD DO MORE TO HELP PROTECT THIS VEHICLE. I APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE

WHEN I GOT IN MY JEEP THERE WAS A BREAKING SOUND FROM UNDER THE DRIVERS SEAT. I NOTICED THE SEAT WAS ROCKING BACK AND FORTH AND WHEN I LOOKED UNDERNEATH AT THE FRAME OF THE SEAT I SAW WHERE THE FRAME BROKE IN HALF. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE NOW AND IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. I USED TO HAVE A LOT MORE FAITH IN JEEP UNTIL I LOOKED IT UP AND STARTED SEEING MORE AND MORE PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND CHRYSLER/JEEP HAS NOT RECALLED IT. DUE TO THIS BEING A LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER JEEP IF THEY DON'T RECALL IT! THERE IS PLENTY OF LIFE LEFT IN THE VEHICLE BUT IS NOW INOPERABLE DUE TO IT BEING AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE VEHICLE.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON INTERMITTENTLY UPON STARTUP, USUALLY WILL GO OUT IF SHUT OFF AND RESTART, BUT NOT ALWAYS. HAS BEEN RECALLED TWICE ALREADY FOR AIRBAG ISSUE SO AM FAIRLY CONFIDENT THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM STILL. ONLY 89000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND IS 100% GARAGE KEPT. .

THE LOW PRESSURE LIGHT STAYS ON

WHILE DRIVING OR STATIONARY THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN ON ME. IT STARTS AGAIN AFTER I WAIT ABOUT AN HOUR OR MORE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER IN DECEMBER 2017. SHE HAD ALL THE RECALLS FIXED EXCEPT FOR THE AIRBAG. SINCE OWNING THIS CAR I HAVE ONLY DRIVEN IT 3 TIMES. GRANTED I TOOK A FEW MONTHS TO PUT IT ON THE ROAD AS THE WEATHER WAS COLD. I'VE HAD EXTENSIVE WORK DONE ON IT. TUNE UP, NEW TRANSMISSION, BELTS, PUMPS, COILS, HOSES AND SENSORS YOU NAME IT BUT IT CONTINUES TO SHUT OFF ON ME. I TRY TO TAKE IT FOR A SPIN BUT JUST PUTTING IT IN REVERSE IT SHUTS OFF. CAN YOU PLEASE LOOK IN TO THIS?

SEVERAL YEARS AGO I WAS PULLED OVER BY A POLICE OFFICER BECAUSE I HAD NO TAIL/RUNNING/TURN OR BRAKE LIGHTS. I IMMEDIATELY HAD THOSE REPLACED. WITHIN A MONTH I TOOK MY JEEP IN FOR THE YEARLY STATE INSPECTION AND FOUND THAT I HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THEN, THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH THIS DESIGN OF THE JEEP, THEY WERE VERY FAMILIAR WITH THIS PROBLEM AS I TOLD THEM ABOUT MY RECENT TRAFFIC STOP AND HAVING JUST GOTTEN IT FIXED. THIS VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED EXTENSIVELY! NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I ADDRESS THE ISSUE (AND IT'S NOT THE BULBS, THOSE ARE RARELY BURNT OUT, IT'S THE CONNECTION, CLEANING THE CONNECTION SURFACE HELPS BUT ...) I AM CONSTANTLY BEING STOPPED AND TOLD I HAVE NO TAIL LIGHTS WHATSOEVER, IT'S EXHAUSTING AND A DANGER TO MY AND EVERYONE ELSE'S! ONGOING PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT A NEW RADIATOR WAS INSTALLED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THAT WAS MADE OF PLASTIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE OEM RADIATOR WAS MADE OVERSEAS AND NOT BY CHRYSLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RADIATOR BURST AND COULD NOT HANDLE THE PRESSURE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED FIFTEEN MONTHS AFTER THE RADIATOR WAS REPLACED BY THE MECHANIC. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

A FEW INSTANCES HAVE OCCURRED WHERE I WILL BE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE ENGINE WILL IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF AS THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS (RADIO, HEADLIGHTS, DASHBOARD, ETC) STILL FUNCTION BUT ALL GAUGES STOP WORKING. I THEN HAVE TO PULL OVER, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND THEN RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT WILL THEN START UP RIGHT AWAY. ON A COUPLE OF OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE ENGINE HAS STARTED BACK UP ON ITS OWN WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING AND DRIVES FINE AFTER THAT. THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR MOSTLY WHEN I RELEASE MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR BUT HAS HAPPENED WHEN I AM TRYING TO ACCELERATE. HAS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN DRIVING ON CITY STREETS, NEVER ON A HIGHWAY.

I WAS DRIVING WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY VEHICLE CUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. ALSO, SUNDAY MORNING I WAS DRIVING TO CHURCH WHEN MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. I WAS TOLD MY A MECHANIC (NOT ON DUTY) THAT IT COULD BE MY FUEL PUMP, WIRING OR CATALYTIC CONVERTER. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING AND STATIONARY IN PARK. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN OUT OF PARK AND INTO REVERSE IT STARTED ACCELERATING BACKWARDS OUT OF CONTROL. THE DRIVER PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDDLE WHICH DID NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. WHILE IN THE MIDST OF A COLLISION HE THEN PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. THIS TOOK PLACE IN A PARKING LOT AND THE VEHICLE WENT STRAIGHT BACK INTO A FENCE.

MY TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR IN JANUARY AND I'VE BEEN HAVING A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. I HEARD THERE WAS A RECALL ON JEEP CHEROKEE TRANSMISSIONS. MY CAR WON'T ACCELERATE ANYMORE WHEN I DRIVE. IT WON'T SWITCH GEARS AND RPM WILL SHOOT UP TO 3 OR 4. IT DOES THIS EVERY TIME IT TRIES TO SWITCH GEARS.

ON FEBRUARY 22, 2018 WE BROUGHT OUR 2002 JEEP CHEROKEE IN TO MERRICK CHRYSLER ON SUNRISE HIGHWAY IN WANTAGH BECAUSE MY WIFE WAS ADVISED OF A SECURITY CONCERN OVER THE AIRBAG UNEXPECTEDLY DEPLOYING (WHICH HAS ALREADY HAPPENED TO HER IN AN UNRELATED INCIDENT). AFTER SCHEDULING AND WAITING A COUPLE OF MONTHS WE BROUGHT THE CAR IN AND AFTER 3 HOURS I WAS TOLD THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PARTS AND TO CALL BACK. MY WIFE REFUSED TO EVEN SIT IN THE CAR UNTIL IT WAS FIXED. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY REFUSED TO EVEN GIVE ME A TIME FRAME ON RECEIPT OF THE PARTS OR REPAIR OF THE RECALL. WITHIN A FEW WEEKS THEREAFTER I WAS AT MY WITS END WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND PURCHASED A NEWER JEEP CHEROKEE THE WAS GUARANTEED NOT TO HAVE ANY PROBLEMS BUT TO THIS DAY I HAVEN'T RECEIVED EVEN A CALL REGARDING THE REPAIR WHICH HAS NOW COST MY FAMILY AN ADDITIONAL $26,000.00, BUT IT SURE WASN'T THE WAY WE WANTED TO GET A NEW CAR. WE HAVE A GORGEOUS NEW JEEP THAT SHE DRIVES AND I ALSO PURCHASED ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO GET HIT IN THE HEAD BY A FAULTY AIR BAG. PLEASE HELP US WITH OUR RECALL. SERIOUSLY, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH ALREADY. WE HAVE A GORGEOUS JEEP IN OUR DRIVEWAY, REGISTERED AND INSURED AND UNDRIVEABLE, UNLESS YOU CAN GUARANTEE THAT IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS WE WILL HAVE OUR OWN DEALERSHIP IF WE LIVE THROUGH THE ACCIDENT!! EVEN MORE CONCERNING IS THE DISDAIN AND IMPORTANCE WITH WHICH WE ARE TREATED. BUY A NEW CAR THEY DROOL AT YOUR FEET BUT GOD SO HELP THE POOR OLD SCHMUCK WHO SHOWS UP WITH SOME OLD CLUNKER THAT THEY WON'T MAKE A DIME OFF OF. PLEASE HELP US. ITS JUST NOT FAIR.

THE ENGINE CRANKS AND RUNS FINE BUT AFTER YOU DRIVE FOR A WHILE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. IT HAPPENS WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING OR COMING TO A STOP. IT IS RANDOM. IT USUALLY STARTS BACK UP AND RUNS FINE UNTIL NEXT TIME. WHEN THE ENGINE DIES, YOU DO NOT HAVE STEERING ASSIST OR BRAKE ASSIST. IT IS VERY HARD TO STEER IT OFF THE ROAD. A WOMAN MAY HAVE A HARD TIME STEERING IT OR STOPPING IT. I DON'T LET MY WIFE DRIVE OUR JEEP MUCH AT ALL. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE DRIVING IN THE CITY OR ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT DECIDES TO SHUT OFF. OUR JEEP IS A 4WD WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.

I HAVE CALLED THE RECALL HOTLINE 4 TIMES SINCE THE INITIAL EVENT, AND EACH TIME THEY PUT A NOTE IN MY CASE NUMBER AND PROMISED AN INSPECTOR WOULD CALL. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT. I NEED TO GET A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE OR HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED. MY INSURANCE COMPANY WILL NOT COVER THIS REPAIR AS I HAVE LIABILITY COVERAGE ONLY. MY VIN NUMBER IS [XXX]. I AM AWARE THERE ARE 2 RECALLS OPEN ON MY CAR. THE IMPORTANT ONE BEING RECALL R06 FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE.

DRIVER'S SEAT DETACHES FROM CAR FRAME. ELECTRICAL BLOWER MODULE RESISTOR OVERHEATS, MELTS, AND BURNS. BOTH ISSUES ARE KNOWN BY CONSUMERS AND DEALERSHIPS, SO THERE IS NO WAY JEEP/CHRYSLER DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THE DESIGN FLAWS AND THE DANGER. DRIVER'S SEAT: THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF CHATTER ON THE INTERNET REGARDING THE DRIVER'S SEAT DETACHMENT FROM THE CAR FRAME AND THE REASON FOR IT. PEOPLE HAVE CREATED VARIOUS FIXES THAT MAY OR MAY NOT WORK WELL. AS ADDED PROOF, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DRIVER'S SEAT IN ANY JUNK YARD. PLEASE GO LOOK FOR YOURSELF. MINE TOTALLY BROKE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, NEARLY CAUSING A WRECK. IT'S TERRIBLE AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL AND SOMEONE HELD CRIMINALLY LIABLE FOR THIS. BLOWER MOTOR MODULE: LOTS OF CHATTER ON THE INTERNET AS WELL AS TO THE PROBLEM AND THE CAUSE. MINE MELTED AND BECAME SO HOT THAT I COULDN'T TOUCH IT WITHOUT BURNING MY HAND - WHICH I DID. THERE IS A FIX, BUT YOU HAVE TO BUY AN UPGRADE MODULE WHICH STILL GETS HOT. ALSO, THE MODULE TURNS THE BLOWER IN REVERSE, SO YOU HAVE TO REVERSE THE LEADS. IT'S DANGEROUS AND AGAIN, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON IT EITHER AND SOMEONE HELD CRIMINALLY LIABLE.

I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT AND UPON THE LIGHT TURNING GREEN I TURNED TO THE RIGHT AND WAS ABOUT TO MERGE INTO THE LEFT LANE WHEN BOTH AIRBAGS EXPLODED FOR NO REASON. NO ONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT NOR WAS THERE ANY OTHER CARS CLOSE BY THAT I COULD HAVE HIT. THE BAG BURST WITH SUCH FORCE THAT I SAW STARS FOR A SECOND. DAMAGE LEFT ME WITH A BRUISED CHEEK, CUT ARM AND BRUISED HAND ALONG WITH A SORE CHEST PAIN. THE SMELL AND SMOKE FROM THE AIR BAG FILLED MY VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH I COULD STILL SEE IT WAS FOGGY. IT HAPPENED RIGHT NEAR MY HOME SO I WAS ABLE TO PARK THE CAR. THE SOUND WAS LIKE SOMEONE WAS SHOOTING A GUN AT MY CAR. THE RESULT IS CHRYSLER DOES HAVE A RECALL ON THESE AIRBAGS, THEY HAVE MY VEHICLE BUT ARE UNABLE TO FIND THE PARTS TO MAKE REPAIRS. THE FORCE WAS SO HARD THAT IT DAMAGED MY WHOLE DASHBOARD. CHRYSLER DEALER NOW HAS MY CAR AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY WILL NEED TO DO AN INVESTIGATION ON "THEIR RECALLED AIRBAGS" AND DO NOT KNOW WHEN OR IF THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET MY CAR FIXED NOR ARE THEY WILLING TO PROVIDE ME WITH TRANSPORTATION DURING THIS TIME. I AM A PROPERTY MANAGER AND COULD LOOSE MY JOB OVER THEIR NEGLIGENCE.

ON MARCH 8, 2016, WHILE DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON INTERSTATE 49 IN HARRISONVILLE, MO, THE ENGINE SPEED RACED WHEN TAKEN OFF CRUISE CONTROL. THE JEEP STAYED AT HIGHWAY SPEED -- ABOVE 60MPH -- AND EVEN PRESSING THE BRAKES DID NOT SLOW DOWN THE JEEP. THE ONLY WAY I WAS ABLE TO GET THE JEEP UNDER CONTROL WAS TO TURN OFF THE ENTIRE ENGINE IGNITION. ONLY BY EXERTING EFFORT TO OVERCOME AND COMPENSATE FOR THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WAS I ABLE TO COAST TO A SAFE STOP OFF THE HIGHWAY. THE TOW OPERATOR WHO RESPONDED ATTEMPTED TO START THE ENGINE BUT FOUND THE SAME RESULT ' RUNAWAY ENGINE REVS. THE JEEP WAS TOWED TO DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT EVENING. THE NEXT MORNING, SERVICE ADVISOR INVESTIGATED AND DETERMINED THAT THE THROTTLE PEDAL WAS STUCK DOWN TO THE FLOOR. HE LOOSENED IT BY MANIPULATION. THE THROTTLE BUTTERFLY VALVE WAS FOUND TO BE STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION BY A SHREDDED PIECE OF RUBBER THAT FLAKED OFF THE RESONATOR BODY INTAKE CONNECTOR. SERVICE DEPARTMENT PERFORMED: 'RUBBER FROM INTAKE SEAL STUCK THROTTLE BODY. REMOVED DEBRIS'. THE TECHNICIAN SHOWED ME THE PIECE OF SHREDDED RUBBER AND GAVE IT TO ME. I KEPT IT, AND THE ENTIRE DEFECTIVE RESONATOR BODY, IN MY POSSESSION. THERE MAY BE OTHER REPORTS OF RUNAWAY ENGINE REVS BUT THIS INSTANCE SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO THE DESIGN OF THE RESONATOR INTAKE PATHWAY. ALTHOUGH MY JEEP HAS 246,289 MILES ON IT, THE DEFECT WAS NOT A RESULT OF WEAR BUT SEEMS TO BE RESULT OF DEFECTIVE DESIGN. THE INTAKE AIR PATHWAY IS SUBJECT TO SHREDDING RUBBER PARTS WHICH CAN COME LOOSE, ENTER THE INTAKE AIR PATHWAY AND BLOCK THE THROTTLE BUTTERFLY. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN UNNECESSARILY HAZARDOUS DESIGN.

THE POWER DRIVER'S SEAT RETAINING BRACKETS HAVE BROKEN AND HAVE CREATED A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING SITUATION. RESEARCHING THIS BREAKAGE ONLINE REVEALS A WIDESPREAD SAFETY HAZARD THAT IS NOT BEING DEALT WITH BY JEEP. A RECALL SHOULD BE MADE DUE TO THE HIGH FREQUENCY OF THE BREAKAGE OF A CAR'S SAFETY FEATURES, WHICH I HAD NEVER ENCOUNTERED BEFORE ... A DRIVER'S SEAT RETAINING BRACKETS FAILING DUE TO INSUFFIECIENTLY STRONG METAL USED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND KEPT STALLING ON HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS. ANOTHER COMPUTER WAS INSTALLED BUT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE THROTTLE POSITION, IDLE AIR CONTROL, AND MAP SENSORS WERE REPLACED. VEHICLE HAD HARD START PROBLEM AND THE FUEL INJECTORS AND FUEL FILTER WERE REPLACED. STARTED VEHICLE IN DRIVEWAY AND HEARD POPPING NOISES AND IT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT DOWN. THE COLI PACK HAD TO BE REPLACED. NUMEROUS VACUUM HOSES HAVE POPPED OFF DURING DRIVING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. NO ERROR CODES OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON EVEN THOUGH THESE THINGS WERE HAPPENING. A YEAR AGO THE OIL PRESSURE SENDING UNIT HAD TO BE REPLACED AND HAS CURRENTLY GONE BAD AGAIN. I HAVE TO PUT THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL AND LET IT IDLE BEFORE I DRIVE IT OR THE TRANSMISSION WILL JERK. I ALSO HAVE TO LET THE TRUCK STAY CRANKED FOR 10-15 MINUTES BEFORE I CAN DRIVE IT BECAUSE IT TAKES THAT LONG FOR IT TO IDLE DOWN. MY DRIVER SEAT CONTROLS WILL NOT WORK, AND THE PASSENGER WINDOW WILL NOT STAY UP AND THE CONTROLS WILL NOT WORK. IF YOU DO RESEARCH ON THE 2000-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE MODELS, YOU WILL FIND THE EXACT SAME ISSUES FROM EVERYONE WHO HAS OWNED THESE SPECIFIC YEARS AND MODELS. CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT THE CONSTANT ISSUES, YET THE 2000-2004 MODELS ARE NOT ON THE BUY BACK LIST. THE DEALERSHIPS EVEN HAVE A PROBLEM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS WHICH IS WHY IT COSTS SO MUCH AND THE PROBLEMS CONTINUE TO EXIST. OWNERS HAVE HAD TO CONSULT WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS TO WORK TOGETHER TO TRY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS OURSELVES. 2002 WITH ONLY 115,000 MILES ON IT. THERE WOULD BE MORE MILES ON IT IF PROBLEMS WOULD STOP OCCURRING WITH THESE VEHICLES AND PREVENTING PEOPLE FROM DRIVING. I PUT THE DATE WHEN IT STARTED IN 2012, BUT CONSTANT PROBLEMS ARE STILL CONTINUING TO THIS DATE AND YEAR OF 2015.

TWO CONCERNS ADDRESSED: FUEL TANK RECALL: WHILE THIS AGENCY HAS COME TO AN AGREEMENT WITH FCA TO 'REMEDY' THE FUEL TANK EXPLODING, I BELIEVE YOUR AGENCY DID NOT TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT. THE MANUFACTURER HAD INSTALLED A PROTECTIVE METAL ENCLOSURE SURROUNDING THE FUEL TANK MODELS FROM 1993 TO 2006. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE TYPE OF METAL USED IS PRONE TO RUSTING OUT THAT A VAST MAJORITY OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE EXPERIENCED WHICH DURING A REAR END COLLISION EXPOSES THE PLASTIC TANK TO CRACK AND EXPLODE. AIR BAG RECALL: AGAIN OWNERS OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES WILL HAVE TO WAIT MANY MONTHS FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS TO BE PRODUCED. THE ORIGINAL RECALL WAITING FOR PARTS, OWNERS HAD TO WAIT 12 MONTHS FOR DEALERSHIP TO OBTAIN PARTS.

MY CAR IS SUBJECT TO CHRYSLER RECALL R06, (NHTSA RECALL 15V-046), ISSUED JAN 27 2015 BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS COULD INADVERTENTLY DEPLOY WHILE DRIVING. HOWEVER IT'S NOW 9 MONTHS LATER AND NOTHING HAS BEEN FIXED BECAUSE THE "PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE." CHRYSLER WILL NOT EVEN SUPPLY A FIRM DATE THAT PARTS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE. WHY NOT?

WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH SOUTH ON INTERSTATE 5 IN CALIFORNIA MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE THAT I'VE OWNED FROM NEW SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE JEEP NO LONGER RECOGNIZED THE KEY. THIS HAPPENED IN MODERATE TRAFFIC AROUND 10PM AND WAS ALMOST REARENDED BY A TRACTOR TRAILER THAT HAD TO MAKE AN ABRUPT MANEUVER TO AVOID ME. THIS WAS THE SAME KEY THAT CAME WITH THE CAR FROM THE FACTORY. THE JEEP HAS 160,000 ACCIDENT FREE MILES AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN MAINTAINED BY JEEP. THERE ARE NO OPEN RECALLS ON IT AND ALL OTHER RECALLS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED.

BLEND DOORS BROKEN CAUSING NO HEAT TO DRIVER SIDE OF THE CABIN. IN WINTER DRIVING, AIR IS SO COLD IT CAUSES NUMBING OF THE DRIVERS FOOT AND LEG WHICH CAUSES DIFFICULTY IN MOVING FROM THE ACCELERATOR TO THE BRAKE. THIS CONDITION OCCURS UNDER ALL CONDITIONS, FROM START UP TO SHUT DOWN. THIS AFFECTS THE DRIVERS ABILITY TO RESPOND TO NECESSARY BRAKING CONDITIONS, ESPECIALLY IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS. COST TO REPAIR CONDITION IS IN EXCESS OF $1200.00. RESEARCH IS THAT THIS CONDITION OCCURS TO THE MAJORITY OF VEHICLES WITH THIS MAKE, MODEL, AND WILL REOCCURS MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE VEHICLES LIFETIME.

AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. DEALER STATED OPEN RECALL FOR AIR BAG MODULE AND FRONT SENSORS. NO PARTS AVAILABLE. WE CARE DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE WITH NO SUPPORT FROM DEALER. WE NEED A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE. DEALER ALSO DENIED RECALL FOR FAULTY FUEL TANK IN EVENT OF REAR COLLISION. WE HAVE A CHECK ENGINE CODE DIRECTLY RELATED TO FUEL VENTING/PURGE SYSTEM. DEALER WILL NOT REPAIR. IN SUMMARY WE HAVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THAT HAS 2 POTENTIAL WAYS OF CAUSING BODILY HARM.

I AM SENDING THIS CORRESPONDENCE AFTER HAVING HEARD ABOUT THE SAFETY RELATED DEFECT CONCERNING THE FUEL TANK SYSTEM INTEGRITY IN REAR-IMPACTS OR CRASHES IN CERTAIN JEEP PRODUCTS. I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE THAT I PURCHASED NEW. MY 16 Y/O SON HAS DRIVEN THIS VEHICLE UNTIL NOW. I DO NOT FEEL THAT HE IS SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE NOW BECAUSE OF THE FINDINGS IN YOUR INVESTIGATION. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER'S FCA RECALL INFO CENTER AND WAS TOLD THAT MY JEEP, WAS NOT A PART OF THIS RECALL BECAUSE, "YOUR REAR STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT IS BETTER THAN THE ONES THAT HAVE THE RECALL", (THE PERSON ON THE PHONE GAVE ME HIS ID #DC1571). I ASKED HIM EXACTLY HOW MY REAR STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT IS BETTER AND HE ADMITTED THAT HE DID NOT KNOW. I TOLD HIM MY FACTORY INSTALLED TOW HITCH DID NOT CUT IT AND THAT I WANTED HIM TO EXPLAIN THE DIFFERENCE IN MY VEHICLE AND THE ONES IN THE RECALL. HE COULD NOT ANSWER AND PROVIDED ME WITH THE CUSTOMER SERVICE PHONE NUMBER SO THAT I COULD FILE A COMPLAINT. INSTEAD I SENT AN EMAIL TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AND I SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED A RESPONSE WITHIN 24 HOURS. I AM STILL WAITING. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME FOR SURE IF YOUR AGENCY RECOMMENDED THAT THE CATEGORY THAT MY JEEP FALLS INTO,BE RECALLED & MEASURES TAKEN TO SOMEHOW ADDRESS THE ISSUE? I SAW THE TODAY SHOW ON NBC ON MONDAY MORNING AND IT SOUNDED LIKE THERE WOULD BE A SOLUTION AND CHRYSLER WOULD COVER THE COST TO FIX THE VEHICLES OR THEY WOULD HAVE TO OFFER OVER MARKET VALUE ON A TRADE IN FOR A DIFFERENT VEHICLE, OR BUY BACK CERTAIN VEHICLES. CAN YOU PLEASE PROVIDE ME WITH SOME ANSWERS. I COULD NEVER LIVE WITH MYSELF IF MY INACTION CAUSED HARM TO ONE OF MY CHILDREN OR SOMEONE ELSE THAT IS RIDING WITH HIM OR IN AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING THIS VEHICLE.CAN YOU TELL ME HOW MY VEHICLE IS SAFER THAN THE VEHICLES THAT WERE "VOLUNTARILY RECALLED" BY CHRYSLER?

RE NHTSA CASE [XXX]: NHTSA REFERRED ME TO FCA TODAY ABOUT RECALL NOTICE R06. FCA HAD MAILED A IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE (R06) IN FEB INDICATING THEY WOULD WRITE LATER REGARDING WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. FCA'S AMANDA AQ070 INDICATED TODAY THE REMEDY STILL IS BEING RESEARCHED. THIS MAY NOW. THE FEB NOTICE INDICATED THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND "EVERY EFFORT WOULD BE MADE TO OBTAIN THESE PARTS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE" AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE". IT APPEARS THEN THAT FCA HAS COMPLETELY MISLED ME BY INDICATING IN THE FEBRUARY LETTER THAT A PERMANENT REMEDY REQUIRES PARTS AND THEY WOULD NOTIFY ME WHEN THEY ARE AVAILABLE. HOW COULD THEY MAKE EFFORTS TO OBTAIN PARTS IF THE REMEDY IS STILL BEING RESEARCHED? I HAVE RECEIVED NO COMMUNICATION WHATSOEVER FROM FCA ABOUT ANY PARTS TO REMEDY THE R06 RECALL. I READ IN THE NEWSPAPER RECENTLY THAT FCA HAS BEEN VERY SLOW TO REMEDY PAST RECALLS. I SUBMIT THAT THIS IS CLEARLY A GOOD EXAMPLE OF HOW THEY MISLEAD AND DELAY IN ORDER TO AVOID COVERING THEIR COST TO RECALL AND REPAIR AND MAKE THEIR PRODUCTS SAFE FOR THE PUBLIC. THE FAVOR OF A REPLY WOULD BE APPRECIATED FROM NHTSA BUT ESPECIALLY FCA. *TR

THIS JEEP HAD THE 4.7L V8 ENGINE. JEEP WAS RUNNING FINE, NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES WITH LEAKING FLUIDS, ETC.OR ANY ENGINE ISSUES AT ALL. WENT TO A FRIENDS HOUSE FOR A COUPLE HOURS AND WHEN I WENT TO LEAVE, THE VEHICLE STARTED VERY ROUGH AND HAD NO POWER - HITTING THE BRAKE TO CHANGE GEARS WOULD STALL THE ENGINE. DIAGNOSTIC TESTING SHOWED NO COMPRESSION IN THE FIRST CYLINDER. I WAS UNABLE TO PAY TO HAVE MY ENGINE TORN APART (KEEP IN MIND I ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR LITTLE OVER A YEAR AND STILL OWED OVER $1000 ON SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT DRIVEABLE), BUT FROM THE SYMPTOMS IT SEEMS THIS WAS CAUSED BY A DROPPED VALVE SEAT. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE IN THIS ENGINE (IN JEEPS AND OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES) AND AM SURPRISED THAT NO RECALL HAS BEEN MADE. I AM UNSURE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I WAS DRIVING AT 50 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE FAILED. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. I RECEIVED A MANUFACTURER RECALL NOTICE CLOSE TO ONE YEAR AGO. I HAVE CONTACTED THE CHRYSLER-JEEP-DODGE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. EACH TIME I ATTEMPT TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT, I GET THE SAME RESPONSE. I'M SIMPLY TOLD, THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS IN STOCK NEEDED TO FIX THE DEFECT. ALONG WITH, THEY HAVEN'T A CLUE AS TO WHEN THE PARTS WILL COME IN. ACCORDING TO SEVERAL NOTICES I HAVE RECEIVED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR REGARDING THE SAFETY RECALL OF MY VEHICLE, THIS DEFECT COULD CAUSE MYSELF TO CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. KNOWING EACH DAY I DRIVE MY VEHICLE, I AM PUTTING MY LIFE AT RISK, IS VERY UNSETTLING. I AM JUST CONFUSED AS TO WHY THE NATIONAL TRAFFIC AND MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY ACT CONTINUES TO SEND MULTIPLE SAFETY RECALL NOTICES FOR MY VEHICLE. WHEN AT THE SAME TIME, THE RESPONSIBLE PARTY TO MY SOLUTION, JUST SHRUGS IT OFF LIKE IT'S NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. ALL BECAUSE, "THE PARTS HAVE NOT COME IN YET", STILL.

I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD NOT CORRECT OR AUTHORIZE REPAIR FOR THIS, EVEN WHEN I HAD THE F25 SAFETY RECALL NOTICE. THEY REPAIRED THIS PROBLEM A FEW YEARS BACK, BUT THEIR 'FIX' WAS TO INSTALL THE SAME TYPE OF FAN AS WAS PREVIOUSLY RECALLED. IT FAILED AGAIN RECENTLY WHILE I WAS IN A PARKING LOT - THIS TIME, WHEN IT BROKE, IT SLUNG THE BROKEN BLADE INTO THE COWLING AND LEFT A HUGE HOLE IN THIS COVER PIECE. IT WAS A RECALL, FOR HEAVENS' SAKES - IT DOES NOT SEEM THAT I SHOULD BEAR THE COST OF REPAIRING THIS, SINCE IT IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM IN THE DESIGN OF THE 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. ONE INCH TO THE LEFT WHILE LOOKING AT THE FAN, AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PROPELLED INTO MY HEAD WITH SERIOUS INJURIES. *TR

THIS IS THE ONLY WAY I CAN FIND TO LODGE THIS PARTICULAR COMPLAINT. I AM TAKING MY JEEP IN ON 7/28/14 FOR A SAFETY RECALL M35/NHTSA 12V-527. I WAS TOLD THAT I WILL HAVE TO RENT A CAR BECAUSE THEIR LOT RENTALS ARE NOT USED FOR RECALL FIXES. I WOULD LIKE TO COMPLAIN VIGOROUSLY! WE, THE CONSUMER, ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE OVERSIGHTS ON THE PART OF THE MANUFACTURER, SO WHY ARE WE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY $ OUTPUT TO FIX THEM? DON'T REFER ME TO THE DEALER. I KNOW IT IS UP TO INDIVIDUAL DEALERS. WOULDN'T IT BE A NICE P.R. OPPORTUNITY, FOR THE MANUFACTURER TO PICK-UP THESE COSTS? I THINK YOUR IMAGE NEEDS SOME BUFFING! I AM GOING TO MAIL MY RECEIPT TO YOU AND SEE WHAT COMES OF IT. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WE WERE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH THE HEATED SEATS ON AND THEY BECAME EXTREMELY HOT. I TURNED THEM OFF AND STOPPED TO LET THE SEATS COOL. LATER IN THE DAY WHEN I TRIED TO USE THEM AGAIN THEY WOULD NOT WORK. AND HAVE NOT WORKED SINCE. I CHECKED THE NHTSA SITE FOR RECALLS AND I DISCOVERED A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 09V1117000/ CHRYSLER LLC RECALL # J14. WHEN I WENT TO MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER I WAS INFORMED THAT MY VIN # WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH I WAS EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. I LOOKED ON THE WEB SITE "ARFC.ORG" AND DISCOVERED THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF JEEP CHEROKEE OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. MANY OF THEM HAD FIRES AND/OR BURNS, YET THEY ARE NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. JEEP CLEARLY HAS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR HEATED SEATS THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THE RECALL APPEARS TO BE ONLY FOR SOME REPAIR PARTS FROM A PREVIOUS RECALL. IF CHRYSLER HAD TO HAVE A RECALL AND INSTALL REPAIRS FOR THEIR HEATED SEATS IT IS OBVIOUS THEIR HEATING ELEMENTS ARE PROBLEMATIC AND THEY SHOULD EXTENT THE RECALL TO COVER ALL JEEP HEATED SEAT PROBLEMS. *TR

MY VEHICLE IS AN 02 OVERLAND. MY DRIVER SIDE HEATED SEATS NO LONGER WORKS. ONE MORNING IT WAS JUST DEAD AND PASSENGERS ARE CONSTANTLY COMPLAINING ABOUT THE INTENSE HEAT COMING FROM THEIR SEAT. I HAVE NEVER BEEN INFORMED OF THIS AS A FAULTY UNIT BUT NOW SEEING THE COMPLAINTS ONLINE I WOULD LIKE TO VOICE MY ISSUE AND HAVE MY SEATS CHECKED OUT OR DISABLED. I REALLY APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE. *TR

I RECEIVED A JEEP AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE THIS WEEK AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEED AN AIRBAG NOW. I HAVE HAD TO WAIT OVER A YEAR FOR THE PARTS TO COME IN AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED TO FIX MY CAR FOUR TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE ATTEMPTING TO USE THE WRONG CONNECTORS TO FIX THE ISSUE (THEY TOLD ME THIS ON THE LAST REPAIR ATTEMPT). NOW THEY CLAIM THAT I MUST PAY FOR AN AIRBAG. I BELIEVE THAT THEIR DEFECTIVE REPAIR ATTEMPTS OR HAVING TO WAIT SO LONG FOR PARTS IS THE REASON THAT THE AIRBAG NOW NEEDS REPLACED. CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE IS DENYING MY REQUEST TO FIX MY AIRBAG. CAN YOU PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE? THEY HAVE DEPRIVED ME OF THE ABILITY TO SELL MY CAR FOR THE LAST YEAR, AND NOW I CAN'T SELL IT UNTIL THIS LATEST ISSUE IS FIXED. THE COST OF THE REPAIR IS $1600. *TR

NEITHER CHRYSLER NOR A "LOCAL" DEALER WILL SUPPLY THE PART NEEDED FOR ME TO INSTALL THE FIX. I'M A QUALIFIED MECHANIC AND HAVE ALL THE NEEDED FACTORY TOOLS INCLUDING THE DRBIII AND ACCESS TO TECH CONNECT. READING THROUGH THE CHRYSLER DOCUMENT DATED NOVEMBER 7TH 2012, I FULLY UNDERSTAND THE ISSUE (MATERIAL CHANGE IN THE SQUIB CAPACITOR) AND THE PATCH CHRYSLER IS OFFERING. THE PROPER FIX WOULD BE REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE CAPACITOR. I AM ASKING FOR THE PART SO THAT I CAN DO THE FIX - NOTHING MORE. *TR

FREEDOM CHRYSLER/JEEP, LEXINGTON, KY COULD NOT PROVIDE A TIMELY SCHEDULING TO FIX THE ISSUE PER THE RECALL NOTICE. I SPOKE WITH [XXX], SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHO TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR AN EVALUATION (NOT NEEDED PER NOTICE AND LATER CONVERSATION WITH CHRSYLER GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER. [XXX] TOLD ME NOT ALL VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE FIXED AND THAT IS THE REASON FOR EVALUATION, ALSO NOT TRUE PER RECALL CENTER. ASKED [XXX] TO SPOKE TO THE MANAGER, HE FORWARDED MY CALL. SERVICE MANAGER HAD A LITTLE MORE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE RECALL, I THOUGHT UNTIL HE TOLD ME IT WOULD BE TWO MONTHS UNTIL THEY COULD SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SLOW RATE OF SPEED (5 MPH) DUE TO A TRAFFIC JAM, MY VEHICLE OVERHEATED. ONCE TOWED OFF THE HIGHWAY, THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED A FAN FAILURE FOR THE RADIATOR WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO OVERHEAT. SUBSEQUENTLY THERE MAY BE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE CAUSED BY THE FAN FAILURE. I RESEARCHED THIS AND DISCOVERED A RECALL ISSUED (8/2006) BY DAIMLER CHRYSLER FOR THE ELECTRIC RADIATOR FAN (SAFETY RECALL F25).

WE CANNOT LEGALLY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE NOW & EVERY CONSUMER PROTECTION AGENCY I'VE CALLED TELLS ME WE HAVE NO RECOURSE. THIS VEHICLE CANNOT EVEN BE SOLD HERE, EXCEPT FOR PARTS!!!! WE NEED TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DRIVE WHILE CHRYSLER FIGURES OUT HOW THIS CAN BE FIXED, BUT IT SEEMS THEY'RE ALLOWED TO ASSIGN THE B TEAM TO THIS PROBLEM PART-TIME - AS LONG AS THEY SAY THEY'RE WORKING ON IT, WHO CARES IF A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE STUCK WITH LONG-TERM ILLEGAL VEHICLES.

DEALER CONTINUES TO SAY THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL AND I SHOULD SIMPLY BRING THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR. MEANWHILE, AFTER MONTHLY CALLS, THE DEALER CONTINUES NOT TO HAVE THE REQUIRED PART FOR REPAIR AND OFFERS NO ASSURANCE OF WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. 6 MONTHS??? FOR AN 11 YEAR OLD CAR. THIS SEEMS AN INTENTIONAL DELAY AND BLATANT DISREGARD FOR THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE NTMVSA. ONE CAN ONLY GUESS AS TO THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES THAT WILL DROP OUT OF THE REPAIR POOL IF CHRYSLER IS ALLOWED TO DELAY INTERMINABLY. *TR

AFTER SURVEYING THE VEHICLE AND FINDING NO EVIDENCE OF ANY CRASH OR OTHER REASON FOR THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY, I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO LUSTINE JEEP IN WOODBRIDGE, VA.

I WAS CHARGED $600 TOTAL. THEN IN NOVEMBER OF 2012 I LEARNED THAT JEEP WAS RECALLING GRAND CHEROKEES AND LIBERTYS IN MY VEHICLES AGE RANGE FOR EXACTLY WHAT I DESCRIBED HAPPENED TO ME IN 2010.

I HAVE OWNED MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO FOR 10 YEARS. I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW FROM LIBERTY AUTO CITY IN LIBERTYVILLE, IL. AT 80,000 MILES, I WAS LEAVING FOR SCHOOL WHEN I NOTICED MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW HAD FALLEN INTO THE DOOR. WHEN I TRIED TO USE THE SWITCH TO RAISE THE WINDOW, IT DID NOT WORK. I TOOK THIS CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY KNEW RIGHT AWAY THAT I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE WINDOW REGULATOR, AND THEY FIXED IT TO THE TUNE OF $400. THE DEALERSHIP KNEW WHAT IT WAS BECAUSE THEY HAVE FIXED SO MANY, AND THE NOVICE INTERNET SURFER WOULD BE ABLE TO SEARCH OUT THIS PROBLEM AND FIND A MYRIAD OF COMPLAINTS FROM GRAND CHEROKEE AND LIBERTY OWNERS ALIKE. I UNDERSTAND A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WAS FILED IN CALIFORNIA BY JEEP LIBERTY DRIVERS, AND JEEP HAS SINCE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON LIBERTY WINDOWS. JEEP REIMBURSED ME $300 OF THE $400 DOLLARS FOR THIS FIRST INCIDENT. NOW, LAST SUNDAY, I WAS LEAVING MY HOME TO WORK THE NIGHT SHIFT AT THE HOSPITAL, AND I NOTICED THE PASSENGER WINDOW WAS ROLLED ALL THE WAY DOWN - SURE ENOUGH, THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE OTHER WINDOW. I DROVE TO WORK IN A SNOW STORM WITH THE PASSENGER WINDOW ROLLED DOWN. NOW JEEP WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME FOR THE REGULATOR, WHICH AGAIN COST $400 TO REPLACE. AGAIN, MY NEW JEEP DEALERSHIP, FLETCHER AUTO IN COLUMBIA, MISSOURI, KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS BECAUSE THEY ALSO HAVE SEEN IT OFTEN WITH VEHICLES FROM THIS TIME PERIOD. I URGE YOU TO ACT TO CREATE A RECALL FOR THIS KNOWN DEFECTIVE PART THAT HAS CAUSED SIGNIFICANT TROUBLE AND EXPENSE. I WAS NOT IN DANGER, BUT I HAD TO BE AT WORK TO COVER MY SHIFT, SO I DROVE IN THE STORM AND HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR IN AN OPEN AIR UNGUARDED PARKING GARAGE WITH THE WINDOW DOWN ALL NIGHT. I BELIEVE JEEP SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS. I APOLOGIZE FOR NOT PROVIDING MY VIN#, I AM ACTUALLY WORKING IN THE HOSPITAL RIGHT NOW FOR ANOTHER SHIFT. *TR

AFTER JUST LESS THAN 30K MILES, BOTH FRONT SEAT ELEMENTS STARTED TO GET OVERLY HOT, THEN STOPPED WORKING. TOOK INTO DEALER, FOUND SHORT IN BOTTOM ELEMENT. VEHICLE WAS STILLL UNDER WARRANTY, I HAD ALSO BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. EVERYTHING FOR THAT EIGHT WAY POWERED SEAT WAS COVERED BUT THE HEATER ELEMENT. WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE AN $800 PER SEAT FIX. I DECLINED TO HAVE IT FIXED. NOW I FIND OUT THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, BUT THAT IT DOES NOT COVER MY VIN NUMBER ACCORDING TO BOTH THE DEALER AND DAIMLERCHRYSLER. IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE HOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS AFTER READING ALL THE BLOGS FROM PEOPLE WITH THIS SAME ISSUE AND THE SAME RESPONSE FROM CHRYSLER. SURE COULD USE SOME HELP GETTING THEM TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, I STEPPED ON MY BRAKE, I HEARD A LOUD "BANG" AND FOUND MYSELF FIRST JAMMED INTO THE STEERING WHEEL/DASH AREA, AND THEN, ONCE MY VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, I WAS IN THE REAR SEAT AREA. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, I FOUND THAT THE REAR SEAT BRACKETS ON MY FRONT (DRIVERS) SEAT WERE BROKEN THROUGH; THE METAL THAT THE SEAT BRACKET IS MADE OF WAS BROKEN AT BOTH REAR CORNERS, AND THE FRONT BOLTS WERE PULLED-THROUGH. THE THIN METAL THE BRACKET IS MADE OF HAD A COUPLE OF CRACKS, AND OVERALL, THE SEAT IS ALMOST USELESS WHEN IT COMES TO DRIVING THE CAR IN A SAFE MANNER. FORTUNATELY, WHEN MY SEAT BROKE I WAS NOT GOING SO FAST AS TO NOT BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT! IF I HAD BEEN ON THE FREEWAY, I BELIEVE I WOULD NOT BE HERE TODAY WRITING THIS COMPLAINT. THERE ARE NO REASONABLE LOCAL SOURCES TO REPLACE THE BRACKET;(THE JEEP DEALERS WANT TO SELL A NEW SEAT FOR APPROX. 700.00, UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY $300.00+ FOR ANOTHER SEAT FROM A WRECKING YARD, WHICH WILL ALSO HAVE THE SAME THIN METAL BRACKET). I AM ATTEMPTING TO GET IT WELDED, BUT I HAVE ALREADY BEEN INFORMED THAT THIS WILL BE A TEMPORARY REPAIR AT BEST; THE METAL THE BRACKET IS MADE OF IS FAR TOO THIN TO HANDLE THE WEIGHT OF A PERSON USING THE SEAT FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME, AND WILL BREAK AGAIN). HELP! *TR

I WAS GETTING LEAVING LUBBOCK HEADED HOME TO PLAINVIEW. ME AND MY DAUGHTER STOPPED AT WALMART WHERE I LEFT MY VEHICLE IDLING FOR NO MORE THAN THREE TO TEN MINUTES MAX. I CAME OUT FROM WALMART AND SMOKE WAS COMING FROM MY CAR. ANTIFREEZE WAS SPILT OUT EVERYWHERE AND THE PERSON PARKED NEXT ME THAT MY CAR HAD OVERHEATED AND TO LET IT COOL DOWN BEFORE DRIVING IT AGAIN. I CAME BACK TO LUBBOCK YESTERDAY WITH MY DAUGHTER AND I ALMOST STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY BUT WAS ABLE TO MAKE INTO THE WALMART PARKING LOT. A FRIEND POINTED OUT THE RADIATOR FAN WAS ALL BUSTED UP. THE JEEP WILL NOT START AND IS IN THE PARKING LOT AT THE WALMART ON AVE. Q IN LUBBOCK. TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY IT WILL NOT START UP I BELIEVE IT COULD BE THE RADIATOR RELAY. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING JEEP ON HIGHWAY AND ALL WAS NORMAL. WE STOPPED FOR FUEL AND WHEN WE STARTED THE CAR IT IDLED VERY ROUGH AND STARTED SMOKING. SHUT CAR OFF AND UPON INSPECTION THE ROCKER ARM HAD BEEN PUSHED THROUGH THE VALVE COVER. APPEARS TO BE DAMAGE TO VALVE BUT DO NOT KNOW EXTENT OF DAMAGE YET. ENGINE HAD APPROX. 108,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

THE WHEELS ON MY VEHICLE ARE CHROME PLATED, AND HAVE BEEN PEELING AND CHIPPING. THIS HAS CAUSED AIR TO LEAK FROM THE THE TIRE BEAD. I HAVE HAD THE WHEELS BRUSHED AND CLEANED AT LEAST SIX TIMES EACH AND THEY STILL LEAK. AT 380.00$ FOR A RE-CONDITIONED WHEEL IS NOT A GOOD FIX SINCE I HAVE PAID ON THE AVERAGE OF 30.00$ FOR REPAIRS.

DRIVING MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON 4/15/2012, I APPROACHED A STOP SIGN AND PROCEEDED TO APPLY THE BRAKES. AS I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT FUNCTIONED AS NORMAL FOR MAYBE 2-3 SECONDS. THE BRAKE PEDAL THEN LOST IT'S PRESSURE AND DROPPED TO THE FLOORBOARD. I PULLED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND OPENED THE HOOD. NO EVIDENCE OF BRAKE FLUID WAS VISUALLY APPARENT AT THE MASTER CYLINDER, THOUGH THE FLUID WAS APPROX. 1/2" LOW IN THE RESERVOIR. LOOKING UNDER THE VEHICLE AT EACH WHEEL TO SEE IF BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE WAS EVIDENT AT ANY OF THE CALIPER(S), I NOTICED BRAKE FLUID LEAKING FROM THE STAINLESS STEEL BRAKE LINE FASTENED ALONG THE FRAME RAIL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF CORROSION OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND, THE BRAKE LINES WERE STILL BRIGHT AND SHINEY, THE WAY STAINLESS APPEARS, AND THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF RUST OR CORROSION ON THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE EITHER. I CANNOT VERIFY THAT THE LEAK WAS INDEED COMING FROM THE BRAKE LINE, AS THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ON A LIFT FOR A BETTER VISUAL INSPECTION. I'M QUESTIONING IF THE BRAKE SYSTEM HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH OTHER JEEP VEHICLES AND IF ANYTHING HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED INFORMATION CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. *JS

I BOUGHT MY 02 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IN 05 WITH ABOUT 50,000 MILES ON IT. SOMETIME IN 08 THE BLOWER MOTOR STARTED WORKING OFF AND ON. AFTER ABOUT 3 YEARS I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THE MOST LIKELY CAUSE WAS THE BLOWER MOTOR RESISTER. AFTER CHECKING, I NOTICE THAT THE RESISTOR HARNESS HAD BEEN MELTED. I DID SOME MORE RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS WAS QUITE COMMON. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM BECAUSE THIS IS A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD. IF THE WIRES WERE HOT ENOUGH TO MELT THE PLASTIC SHEATHING, WHAT'S TO STOP IT FROM CAUSING A FIRE IN AN UNSUSPECTING CONSUMER'S JEEP? I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE CAUGHT THIS EARLY ON, BUT IF I WASN'T, THE COST OF "WHAT IF" IS NOT ONE I, MY WIFE, OR CHILDREN ARE WILLING TO PAY. *TR

IT'S APPARENT TO ME THAT THEY POSE A SERIOUS RISK, ESPECIALLY SINCE ONE OF THE BOLTS ON THE REAR SWAY BAR IS LESS THAN A QUARTER INCH FROM THE TANK AND COULD VERY EASILY PUNCTURE IT IN EVEN A MINOR REAR END CRASH. THIS IS SOMETHING YOU CANNOT IGNORE. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A REASON THEY MOVED THE TANK AFTER 2004. YOU HAVE MILLIONS OF TICKING TIME BOMBS DRIVING AROUND. THIS COULD POSE DANGER TO THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE THAT REAR ENDS A JEEP AND TO ANY BY STANDARDS THAT TRY TO ASSIST IN AN ACCIDENT SITUATION. WITH THE WAY THE SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT IS DESIGNED, THERE ARE A FEW HOLES THAT ARE COVERED WITH SEALANT THAT COULD ACT AS A PASSAGE WAY FOR THE FLAMES, THE SEALANT IN BOTH OF OUR CARS IS OLD AND BRITTLE SO IT WOULD OFFER VERY LITTLE RESISTANCE TO ANYTHING. *TR

DEFECTIVE FRONT SEAT ON MY JEEP CHEROKEE 2002 HAD BROKEN. *TR

DUE TO POOR MANUFACTURING AND LOW QUALITY PARTS, 1999-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES HAVE BEEN SUBJECT TO BREAKAGE OF INTERIOR PARTS CONTROLLING THE HEATING AND A/C SYSTEMS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE BLEND DOORS AND ACTUATOR. THIS SYSTEM BREAKDOWN CAN OCCUR SUDDENLY, AND CAN AFFECT BOTH THE A/C AND HEATING SYSTEMS. WHEN THIS OCCURRED TO MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LTD. IT WAS IN THE DEAD OF WINTER (DEC 2009) AND THE WEATHER HAD BEEN EXTREMELY COLD. I WAS UNABLE TO PROPERLY DEFROST MY WINDOWS, CAUSING EXTREME DIFFICULTY IN SEEING OUT OF MY WINDSHIELD AND RIGHT SIDE MIRROR. BECAUSE OF THIS I WAS OFTEN HAVING TO ROLL DOWN MY WINDOWS--EVEN IF IT WAS SNOWING--IN ORDER TO DRIVE SAFELY TO SCHOOL AND WORK. IN MARCH I TOOK MY CAR TO A LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP TO GET MORE INFORMATION ON THIS ISSUE AND I WAS TOLD BY ONE OF THE SERVICE ADVISOR THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN MANY JEEPS, AND IS SEEN VERY FREQUENTLY. DUE TO THE PROBLEM BEING IN THE DASH OF THE VEHICLE, THE REPAIR QUOTE IS OVER $1,300.00, AND IS NOT COVERED BY MY PRE-OWNED VEHICLE PROTECTION PLAN WITH WESTERN GENERAL. DAIMLER-CHRYSLER HAS RECEIVED THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT REFUSES TO RECALL A WARRANTY OR ASSIST JEEP OWNERS IN REPAIRING BROKEN PARTS. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE PAYING $1,300 AND BEING PENALIZED FOR DAIMLER-CHRYSLER'S MISTAKE WHEN, IF REPAIRED WITH THE SAME PARTS, I COULD BE FACING THIS SAME ISSUE AGAIN VERY SOON! *TR

BLEND DOORS ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE NOT WORKING. *TR

CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM BLEND DOOR FAILURE. *TR

HEATER/AC BLEND DOORS HAVE DETACHED FROM THE SHAFT ATTACHED TO THE ELECTRIC MOTOR. THE DOORS CIRCULATE CONDITIONED AIR TO THE CAB AND ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DEFROSTING THE WINDSHIELD. THE WINDSHIELD NO LONGER DEFROSTS CAUSING VISIBILITY ISSUES DURING THE WINTER MONTHS. *TR

POTENTIAL BRAKE FAILURE. THE REAR BRAKE LINE & HOSE ARE SEVERELY RUSTED. WHY AREN'T THEY DESIGNED NOT TO COMPROMISE SAFETY. *TR

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE NHTSA CAN IGNORE THE PROBLEM WITH THE HVAC BLEND DOOR ASSEMBLY UNIT ON THE WJ JEEPS. HOW CAN HAVING NO HEAT AND NO DEFROSTER NOT BE A SAFETY ISSUE. I LIVE IN MAINE AND CAN NOT AFFORD THE ESTIMATED $1200 REPAIR TO FIX THIS WIDELY KNOWN DEFECT. TRY DRIVING IN 15 DEGREE WHETHER WITH SNOW ON THE ROADS AND NO DEFROSTER. GUESS WHAT HAPPENS? YOUR BREATH CAUSES THE WINDOWS TO FOG HENCE TO THE POINT ON NO VISIBILITY. I SLID OFF THE ROAD AFTER HITTING A SNOW BANK ON THE SIDE BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE AND WAS TRYING TO SCRAPE THE QUARTER INCH ON FROST ON MY WINDOW OFF. THIS IS RIDICULOUS CHRYSLER NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING. *TR

1. I HAD MY JEEP 2002 GRAND CHEROKEE REPAIRED THEN A FEW HOURS LATER IT BROKE DOWN AGAIN. WHEN I STOPPED AND TURNED IT OFF THE ENGINE CONTINUED MAKING NOISE, THE COOLANT RAN OUT THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE AND THE CAR WAS HOT AND SMELLED BAD. 2. I CALLED LITHIA IN CONCORD, IT WAS THE RADIATOR COOLING FAN AND IT WAS INOPERABLE. THEY ESTIMATED THE REPAIR AT $1400. I HAD JUST PAID $1400 TO HAVE THIS CAR REPAIRED, I BOUGHT THE CAR AND A WARRANTY FROM LITHIA IN DECEMBER. THE WARRANTY AND LITHIA AND CHRYSLER-DAIMLER WOULD NOT HELP WITH THE REPAIR. I FINALLY HAD IT TOWED ELSEWHERE. 3. I AM NOW TRYING TO GET IT REPAIRED BUT THE RADIATOR COOLING FAN IS NOT AVAILABLE. IT'S COMPLETELY OUT OF STOCK AND ON BACK ORDER FROM JEEP. THEY CAN'T MAKE THEM FAST ENOUGH TO REPLACE THE BROKEN ONES, AND THIS PART COSTS OVER $900. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT A RECALL ITEM. *TR

DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE PASSENGER WINDOW STARTED TO GO DOWN BY ITSELF. I HAD SOME PAPERWORK IN THE CAR AND IT STARTED BLOWING AROUND, CAUSING ME TO BECOME DISTRACTED AND NEARLY HITTING ANOTHER CAR ON THE HIGHWAY UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER SAFELY. THE WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED, WHICH IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLES WITH THE BLENDER DOORS CLOSING ALL THE TIME ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED. I HAVE HAD THE SUV FOR NOT EVEN 3 YEARS AND THE DOORS HAVE CLOSED 4 TIMES ALREADY. 2 MONTHS AGO THEY CLOSED AND IT COST $1,200 TO FIX IT, NOW 2 MONTHS LATER THE DOORS CLOSED AGAIN TODAY 5/27/10. THIS IS GETTING OUT OF HAND. THESE BLENDER DOORS HAVE A DEFECT AND CHRYSLER IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. *TR

TOOK MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE INTO DEALERSHIP TO FIX A WINDOW. WHEN I PICKED IT UP THEY HAD CHANGED SOME PART THAT WAS A RECALL ON MY HEATED SEATS. THE HEATED SEATS THEN BURNED OUT A MODULE AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT WAS NOT THEIR PROBLEM AND THAT IT WOULD COST $200.00 PER SEAT TO FIX. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. OBVIOUSLY I NOW HAVE SEATS THAT ONLY HEAT ON HIGH. *TR

FAILURE OF BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER FRONT WINDOW CONTROL MECHANISMS WITHIN 17 MONTHS OF EACH OTHER. REPLACEMENT IS $545.00 EACH, WITH TWO HOURS LABOR ($212.00) BEING CHARGED WHEN IT TOOK LESS THAN 1 HOUR TO COMPLETE REPLACEMENT. SERVICE WAS AT A JEEP DEALERSHIP. *TR

2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. COMPLAINT CONCERNING CHRYSLER SAFETY RECALL- HEATED SEAT ELEMENTS *GR THE CONSUMER STATED BOTH FRONT SEAT HEATER ELEMENTS WERE REPLACED AFTER THE DRIVERS SEAT STOPPED WORKING.

DRIVER'S SEAT FRAME BROKEN, 3RD TIME. WELDED TWICE BEFORE TO REPAIR. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE FRONT HEATED SEAT WORKED INTERMITTENTLY AT FIRST THEN ONE TIME GOT EXTREMELY HOT AND NO LONGER WORKS.

TOLD US TO CONTACT CHRYSLER, THEY SAID OUR VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. *TR

ON THE NIGHT OF 02/05/2010 WE WERE DRIVING ON FWY 14 NB AND EARLIER THAT NIGHT WAS RAINING HARD. DUE TO THE STORM THERE WAS A LOT OF WATER ON THE FREEWAY AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE JEEP. THE CAR BEGAN MAKING CIRCLES AND THEN IT ROLL OVER ON THE RIGHT SITE OF THE FREEWAY AND THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO OPEN. WE HAD THE SEAT BELTS ON, BUT FOR THIS TYPE OF ACCIDENT WHERE THE CAR BECAME A TOTAL LOST , THE AIR BAGS MUST HAD BEEN ACTIVATED. LUCKILY WE ARE ALIVE. WE COULD HAD DIED AND WE WANT TO PREVENT THIS HAPPEN TO ANYONE WHO OWNED A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2002. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SEAT LOWER FRAME BROKE WHILE ME DRIVING AND MADE ME SWERVE LEFT ALMOST RUNNING OFF THE BY-PASS,UPON LOOKING AT MY SEAT I REVEALED A CRACKED LOWER SEAT FRAME,WHICH MAKES ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN DRIVING, THE SEAT IS VERY LOOSE. MY ACTUAL WEIGHT IS 210LBS 5 11" I FEEL THAT THE SEAT SHOULD BE ASSEMBLED TO EASILY HANDLE A 250LB PERSON. *TR

MY 2002 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED FRONT DRIVER SEAT BRACKETS HAVE BROKEN ON ALL 4 LEGS WHERE THEY BOLT ONTO THE FLOOR.. I HAD THEM WELDED BACK AND IT APPEARED STURDY UNTIL THE OTHER DAY WHEN I WENT TO GET INTO THE SEAT... THE LEFT UPPER FRONT BRACE BROKE COMPLETELY THRU. I CALLED CROSS JEEP IN LOUISVILLE KY, TO REPLACE THIS PART... THEY SAID I HAD TO PAY $331 IN ADVANCE AND COULDN'T GIVE ME A VERY GOOD DATE WHEN THE ORDER WILL BE FILLED... HE PULLED UP CURRENT ORDERS FROM DEC 2009 AND THE ETA ON THEIR SEATS WAS JUNE 2010.. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM.... ITS LIKE NOT WEARING A SEAT BELT BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT STRAPPED DOWN TO ANYTHING... *TR

WHILST DRIVING HEARD A SNAP AND THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT STARTED TO WOBBLE. THE METAL BRACKET SNAPPED. THIS IS A 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. *TR

MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DRIVER'S SEAT BREAKS FROM THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. THE SEAT WAS REWELDED TO THE FRAME BUT THEN THE RAILS THAT ARE ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE BROKE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A JEEP DEALERS' MECHANIC STATED THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SEAT TOTALLY BROKE, INCLUDING THE BRACKETS ON THE BOTTOM, AND THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BACK PART OF THE SEAT. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS, WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT HAPPENED AND THE SEAT JUST SNAPPED. NOW I'M HAVING A HARD TIME FINDING A REPLACEMENT SEAT... *TR

I WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO CHECK INTO THE TYPE OF PRODUCT THAT CHRYSLER (JEEP) TO BE SPECIFIC IS USING ON THEIR WINDOWS. I HAVE A 2002/AND 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO AT THIS TIME ONLY ONE WINDOW IS OPERABLE THAT BEING THE PASSENGER SIDE, THE OTHER THREE WINDOWS HAVE TO BE TAPED UP, TO STAY UP, THE WINDOWS CAN NOT BE FULLY SECURED WHICH CAUSES RAIN TO ENTER THE VEHICLE, AND ALSO DAMPNESS WHEN SITTING OUT OVERNIGHT. THIS ALSO OCCURS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, WHEN I EXPLAINED THIS PROBLEM TO CHRYSLER I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE I BEG TO DIFFER TRYING TO NOT HAVE IT RAINING ON YOU WHEN DRIVING OR COMING IN THE OTHER WINDOWS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THEY EXPLAINED THAT THE VEHICLES WERE OUT OF WARRANTY I DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS A WARRANTY ON SAFETY. THE WEB SITE SHOWS THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THIS PARTICULAR MODEL WITH THE SAME PROBLEM A HIGH POWER NEEDS TO STEP UP AND INVESTIGATE THE INFERIOR PRODUCTS BEING USED BY THIS COMPANY CHRYSLER WANTS TO FALL ON DEAF EARS RATHER THAN BACK ITS PRODUCT THAT IS ONE REASON THAT IMPORTS ARE A MUCH MORE POPULAR VEHICLE, THOUGH THEY ALSO HAVE SOME PROBLEMS, BUT IT SEEMS THAT THE FOREIGN AUTO MAKERS ARE WILLING TO BACK THEIR PRODUCT THEY HAVE PRIDE IN THEIR SELVES UNLIKE AMERICAN MFGS. *TR

HEATING SYSTEM IN 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FAILED. I DON'T HAVE DEFROST, HEAT. HAVE HEARD OF NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CHEROKEE OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

VISIBILITY-DEFROST. *TR

ANOTHER BLEND DOOR FAILURE COMPLAINT. PASSENGER SIDE WENT OUT AND NOT ONLY DOES IT AFFECT THE DEFROSTING ABILITY ON THAT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD, A PASSENGER HAS NO HEAT EITHER. BLOWS COLD AIR ALL THE TIME. CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WITH THE CHEAP PLASTIC PARTS USED TO MANUFACTURE THE UNITS BUT DON'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR DOING THE RIGHT THING AND FIXING THEM FOR FREE. MY JEEP HAD LESS THAN 50K ON IT WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT. THEY ARE DESPICABLE. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE HEATED SEAT GOT EXTREMELY HOT AND HAS SINCE QUIT WORKING. CALLED DEALER AND CHRYSLER/JEEP AND BOTH SAY IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL #J14. I SEE WHERE THERE ARE 17 UNDER THE "SEAT" HEADING OF COMPONENT AND OTHERS UNDER THE ELECTRICAL HEADING. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL SOMEDAY AND SOON. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE HEATED SEAT STOPPED WORKING. THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY A FAULTY WIRE.

THE HEATER / DEFROSTER STOPPED BLOWING HOT AIR OUT ON BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER'S SIDE OF VEHICLE CAUSING DANGEROUS CONDITIONS WHILE DRIVING IN COLD CONDITIONS. I LIVE IN COLORADO AND THE OTHER DAY EVEN THE INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR WAS FROZEN AND WAS NO USE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE HEATED SEATS ON THE DRIVER-SIDE BURNED HIS LEG AFTER BEING TURNED ON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. HE WAS ADVISED THAT HIS VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM RECALL NHTSA # 09V117000 (SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:SEAT HEATER/COOLER). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71,150.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALERSHIP. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE THE FAN RELAY HAD TO BE REPLACED SEVERAL DIFFERENT TIMES. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 75000.

MY DRIVERS SEAT HAS BROKEN OFF OF MY CAR OFFERING NO SUPPORT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THE BRACKET THAT HOLDS THE SEAT ONTO THE CAR BROKE AT THE BASE WHERE THE BOLTS HOLD IT ONTO THE CAR. IF JUST SITTING IN THE SEAT BREAKS IT HOW WELL WILL THIS HOLD UP IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT? GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT AT A HIGHWAY SPEED COULD TOTALLY BREAK THE SEAT OFF OF THE CAR AND OFFER NO HELP IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. IN MY OPINION THE SEAT SHOULD NEVER BREAK OFF OF THE CAR. THE SEAT AND THE SEATBELT ARE THE ONLY THINGS OFFERING ME SUPPORT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE HAD OLDER CARS BEFORE THIS ONE WITH MORE MILES THAT HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED. THE DRIVER SIDE HEAT ACTIVATED SEAT WOULD BECOME TOO HOT WHEN TURNED ON THE HIGH LEVEL. ALSO THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT HEATER FAILED. HE WOULD ONLY BE ABLE TO ADJUST THE HEATER TO LOW WHICH HE NOTICED NO PROBLEMS WITH TO-DATE. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT FAILURE WAS COMMON FOR HIS MODEL TYPE.. HE REFERENCED RECALL 09V117000(SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:SEAT HEATER/COOLER), BUT THE MANUFACTURER TOLD HIM THAT HIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED TO-DATE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 67,452. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE BLEND DOORS. THAT ALL I HAVE TO SAY. THE BLEND DOORS ARE JUNK. THEY BREAK IN EVERY JEEP GC. IT'S A 1500 DOLLAR JOB THAT CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF. IT HAPPENS IN ALL JEEPS. THE DOORS BREAK, LEAVING THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WITH NO HEAT. CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. THEY HAVE ISSUED A TECH BULLETIN, BUT STILL THEY DO NOT RECALL THIS PART. THIS IS '!@#$%. THEY KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM. FIX IT FOR THE CONSUMER ALREADY! *TR

I AM PAYING FOR A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE THAT I PURCHASED USED IN 12-06. I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE HEATER 6 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED IT USED, WHICH THE DEALER WOULD NOT REPAIR. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND NO ONE RETURNED MY CALL UNTIL THIS MONTH. I RECEIVED A RECALL ABOUT THE FAN BLADES AND TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP. PRIOR TO THE SHOP APPOINTMENT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, I ASKED THE SERVICE TECH TO CHECK WHY THE HEATER WAS NOT WORKING AND WHY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. HE CALLED ME TO TELL ME THAT THE RECALL PART WAS ON BACK ORDER AND THAT THE BLEND MOTOR AND DOORS ON THE HEATER WERE BROKEN AND THAT THE LEAK DETECTION PUMP HAD GONE OUT, WHICH WOULD PREVENT ME FROM GETTING IT INSPECTED. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT THE HEATER PLUGS WERE MELTED AND IT NEEDED A WIRING HARNESS REPLACEMENT. THE DASH GETS VERY HOT WHICH HAS MELTED THE PLUGS BUT NO HEAT IS BLOWING INTO THE VEHICLE. THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE INSIDE THE VEHICLE. ALSO THE LEAK DETECTION PUMP IS AN EMISSIONS PROBLEM AND PER FEDERALLAW HAS TO BE OPERATING IN ORDER TO PASS INSPECTION. I SPOKE WITH CHRYSLER AND ASKED THEM TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AND THEY LAUGHED AT ME, TELLING ME THIS VEHICLE HAD BEEN OUT OF WARRANTY FOR 4.5 YEARS. (IT WAS OUT WHEN I PURCHASED IT.)AND IF IT WERE STILL UNDER WARRANTY THEN THEY WOULD FIX IT. I ALSO ASKED WHY IF THE RECALL HAD BEEN OUT SINCE 2006 THEN WHY WAS I JUST NOW GETTING IT, AND THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER WHICH TELLS ME THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT THE HEATER BEING BROKEN WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, IT IS DUE TO NOT HAVING HEAT TO DEFROST WINDOWS AND PLUGS MELTING COULD CAUSE A FIRE. I HAVE CHECKED THE WEB AND THERE ARE SO MANY WEB SITES THAT TALK ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS WITH THE JEEPS THAT GO BACK TO 1998- 2005. PLEASE HELP ME I AM OUT OF WORK DUE THE MEDICAL PROBLEMS AND I HAVE A VERY TIGHT BUDGET. I HAVE CONTACTED THE N.C. ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE, CONSUMER AFFAIRS, CHRYSLER, NAT. ASSOC. CONSUMER AFFAIRS.

2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND 10 WAY HEATED POWER MEMORY SEAT . THE ORIGINAL SEAT HEATER ELEMENT BURNT UP IN WINTER OF 2006 . THE MECHANIC WHO FIXED THE CAR SAID THAT THERE WAS A NOTICEABLE BURN MARKS ON THE LEATHER UNDERSIDE OF THE SEAT CUSHION. THE REPLACEMENT UNIT BURNT AGAIN IN 2008. I THEN DECIDED AGAINST PAYING FOR THE REPAIR AGAIN. NOW CHRYSLER HAS RECALLED OVER A 100000 JEEPS FOR SEAT PROBLEM UNDER RECALL J17. I AM TOLD BY CHRYSLER MY 2002 IS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. I FEEL IF IT IS NOT, IT SHOULD BE. APPARENTLY THEY HAVE A PROBLEM ALSO SINCE THE ORIGINAL REPAIR WAS ONLY 100 DOLLARS AND WHEN IT HAPPENED THE SECOND TIME IT WAS OVER 300 DOLLARS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE DRIVERS SEAT HEATING UNIT WAS REPAIRED TWICE UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE IT DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. ON ONE OCCASION THE SEATS BECAME INCREDIBLY HOT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, AND A TECHNICIAN STATED THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO PAY $700.00 TO REPLACE THE SEAT BECAUSE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED IN REFERENCE TO RECALL # 09V117000 (SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:SEAT HEATER/COOLER). SINCE HIS VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER WAS EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL, HE WAS INELIGIBLE FOR A FREE REMEDY. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 100,095.

IN MAY 2009 MY PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW REGULATOR WENT OUT. MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP SAID THAT JEEP MAKES CHEAP WINDOW REGULATOR PARTS AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. YET THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $497.00 TO FIX PROBLEM. I WENT AHEAD AND FIXED IT, BECAUSE I COULDN'T DRIVE AROUND WITH A WINDOW ROLLED DOWN EVERYWHERE I WENT. NOW 5 MONTHS LATER THE PASSENGER REAR WINDOW HAS ALSO BROKEN, DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE SUNROOF WILL ALSO NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. I FEEL THAT IF JEEP ADMITS TO USING CHEAP PARTS FOR THEIR WINDOWS, THEN THEY SHOULD ALSO FIX THEM FOR FREE WHEN THEY BREAK SO OFTEN. I CANNOT AFFORD CLOSE TO $500 PER WINDOW EVERY 6 MONTHS WHEN THEY KEEP BREAKING. *TR

CONSUMER HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE SAFETY RECALL F25 FOR HER JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE RECALL. *NJ THE CONSUMER STATED SHE WAS WITHOUT HER VEHICLE FOR 10 DAYS TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED. THE CONSUMER IS SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT UNDER THE RECALL. # 06V199000. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED. THE DRIVER-SIDE HEATED SEAT WAS INOPERABLE. HE THEN REMOVED THE DRIVER SEAT AND NOTICED THAT A HOLE WAS BURNED INTO THE CUSHION. HIS MODEL YEAR WAS EXCLUDED FROM RECALL # 06V197000 (SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:SEAT HEATER/COOLER), SO HE WAS INELIGIBLE FOR A FREE REMEDY. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 76,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ENTER THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER-SIDE SEAT SHIFTED OUT OF POSITION WITHOUT INTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL BODY SHOP, AND A MECHANIC CONCLUDED THAT THE SEAT BRACKET NEED TO BE REPLACED. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE VEHICLE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE UNDER 99,685.

THE HEATER ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ONLY WORKS APPROX. 25% OF THE TIME. THE PERSON I PURCHASED IT FROM SAID IT ONLY HAPPENED TO HER EVERY SO OFTEN, BUT THAT IT HAD GOTTEN WORSE. SINCE I'VE OWNED IT, IT HAS CONTINUED TO GET PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. I'M CONCERNED AS WINTER IS APPROACHING AND I'LL NEED TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD AND WILL NEED A HEAT DEFROSTER FOR IT LIVING HERE IN NEBRASKA. THIS IS A LONG KNOWN PROBLEM AND I'M SHOCKED THAT CHRYSLER HAS NOT RECALLED THIS PROBLEM AS IT POSES MAJOR SAFETY IMPLICATIONS. I'VE WORKED ON CARS FOR 15 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A HEATER GOING BAD. AS ANY MECHANIC OUT THERE, HEATERS DON'T GO BAD UNLESS THE WHOLE HEATER CORE IS BAD, IN WHICH CASE I'D HAVE A FLOOR FULL OF ANTI-FREEZE, WHICH I DO NOT HAVE. MY JEEP HAS NOT LOST AN OUNCE OF FLUID AND RUNS AT PERFECT OPERATING TEMPERATURE. IT'S AN OBVIOUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT JEEP SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR! THERE ARE NUMEROUS POSTS ON NUMEROUS FORMS WITH HOARDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT JEEP IS CHARGING $1500 TO FIX. TALK ABOUT A SCAM!!! *TR

MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IS SAGGING ON ONE SIDE. CHECKING ON-LINE THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WHERE CHRYSLER DESIGNED IT POORLY AND USED SUBSTANDARD PARTS. *TR

IN THE FALL OF 2008, MY SON AND MY WIFE EXITED THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND CLOSED THEIR DOORS. WITHIN A SECOND OR TWO, BOTH OF THEM HEARD A BANG BUT SAW NOTHING WRONG, AS THEY WERE BOTH AT THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND UNABLE TO SEE THEIR SIDE WINDOWS. AFTER RETURNING TO THE VEHICLE, MY SON NOTICED HIS WINDOW WAS NOT UP AS HE HAD LEFT IT. HE WAS UNABLE TO RAISE THE WINDOW NORMALLY SO A COLD TRIP HOME FOLLOWED. A QUICK INVESTIGATION REVEALED A FAILED WINDOW REGULATOR. SINCE I WAS NOT GOING TO PAY SOMEONE A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT TO REPLACE THE PART, I DID IT MYSELF AFTER FINDING A WINDOW REGULATOR AT A LOCAL PARTS STORE. SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT OPERATING WHEN THE FAILURE OF THE WINDOW REGULATOR OCCURRED, SAFETY WAS NOT AN ISSUE RELATIVE TO OPERATION. HOWEVER, SINCE THE FAILURE WAS UNDETECTED AT THE TIME, OR IF IT HAD HAPPENED AFTER WALKING AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY ISSUE RELATIVE TO AN UNSECURED VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS OPEN TO ANYONE OR ANYTHING WANTING TO ENTER IT. IT ALSO CREATED A POTENTIAL FOR FURTHER DAMAGE FROM INCLEMENT WEATHER. IN AUGUST 2009, THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED. THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS HAD BEEN LOWERED TO HELP COOL THE INSIDE PRIOR TO DRIVING. WHEN THE WINDOWS WERE RAISED, ONLY THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW RESPONDED. THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WOULD NOT RAISE. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN HOME WHERE I REPLACED THE WINDOW REGULATOR. THE SAME PART FAILED IN BOTH INSTANCES. THIS PART IS OBVIOUSLY INSUFFICIENT FOR ITS PURPOSE. A FAILURE OF THE WINDOW REGULATOR AND SUBSEQUENT DROPPING WINDOW COULD EASILY CAUSE ENOUGH DISTRACTION TO INITIATE A MOVING INCIDENT. WHOEVER OWNS THE JEEP TRADEMARK THESE DAYS NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE THERE IS AN ACCIDENT, A DRIVER RETURNS TO A RANSACKED VEHICLE OR WORSE, THERE IS A CAR JACKING BY AN UNKNOWN AND UNINVITED PASSENGER. *TR

WHILE DRIVING HOME LAST YEAR I ROLLED MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW UP AND HEARD A LOUD BANG. I AT FIRST THOUGHT THAT SOMEONE HAD HIT MY VEHICLE WITH A LARGE ROCK BUT THEN THE WINDOW DROPPED DOWN INTO THE DOOR. WHEN I GOT HOME, I WENT ONLINE AND FOUND QUITE A FEW COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE WINDOW REGULATORS FAILING IN CHRYSLER GRAND CHEROKEES AND THE FACT THAT CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT REFUSES TO COVER THE REPAIR. I ALSO FOUND THAT THESE PROBLEMS COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED IF THEY'D JUST USED A 25 CENT PIECE OF METAL INSTEAD OF THE PLASTIC PIECE THEY USED. BECAUSE I COULD NOT AFFORD THE $400 + IT WOULD COST TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED, I FOUND THE INSTRUCTIONS ONLINE AND BOUGHT THE REPLACEMENT REGULATOR AND REPLACED IT MYSELF. HOWEVER, ALL THE COMPLAINTS I READ ABOUT SAY THAT ALL THE WINDOWS WILL FAIL AT SOME POINT. I HAVE NEITHER THE TIME OR EVEN THE MONEY TO GET THEM ALL REPLACED. I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD ADDRESS. HAD I BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED, IT QUITE POSSIBLE THAT THE BANG OF THE PIECE FAILING WOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH TO CAUSE ME DISTRACTION AND LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. *TR

WE PURCHASED A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO ON 7/1/09. THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT SEAT SHIFTS FORWARD AND BACKWARD DEPENDING ON THE DIRECTION OF TRAVEL, BUMPS IN THE ROAD, ETC., MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN FULL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

MY WINDOW REGULATORS KEEP FAILING ONE AT A TIME IN MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND THERE WAS A LOUD BANG IN WHICH I THOUGHT I HIT SOMETHING. THEN MY WINDOW FELL IN THE DOOR PROVIDING ME NO PROTECTION ON I-95. MOST RECENTLY, IN JUNE 2009, MY PASSENGER WINDOW FAILED DURING A MAJOR ELECTRICAL STORM (EVENING OF JUNE 11, 2009 IN WILMINGTON, DE) LEAVING MYSELF AND CAR SOAKED WITH NO PROTECTION. *TR

THREE OF FOUR POWER WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE FAILED SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT NOTICE, ALL WITHIN A YEAR OF EACH OTHER WITH THE MOST RECENT BEING LAST WEEK. EACH TIME IT OCCURS, THERE IS A POPPING SOUND FOLLOWED BY THE WINDOW DROPPING INTO THE DOOR. I HAVE SO FAR BEEN FORTUNATE TO ONLY HAVE THIS HAPPEN WHEN DRIVING AT SPEEDS <30MPH AND WITHOUT MY CHILD OR DOG BEING IN THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THERE'S STILL THAT 4TH WINDOW WITH THE SAME FAULTY PLASTIC COMPONENT THAT HAS BEEN FAILING. I REPLACED THE FIRST WINDOW REGULATOR AT FULL COST AT THE DEALERSHIP WHEN IT HAPPENED LAST YEAR. WHEN THE SECOND ONE WENT OUT, I DIDN'T FIX IT BECAUSE OF THE COST AND THE FACT THAT IT WAS A REAR WINDOW. AFTER THE THIRD ONE FAILED, I GOT SUSPICIOUS. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS ISSUE ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS MOSTLY WITH THE LIBERTY MODEL, BUT ON THE GRAND CHEROKEE AS WELL. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE; HOWEVER, EACH AGENT I SPOKE WITH ON THEIR HELP LINE TRIED TO DOWNPLAY THE ISSUE LIKE IT WAS A FREAK OCCURRENCE AND THAT THERE WAS NO REASON FOR A RECALL. BASED ON THE RESEARCH I'M NOW SEEING ONLINE AND THE COMMENTS FROM THE SERVICE MANAGER, I KNOW THIS IS NOT THE CASE. *TR

MY SON'S 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DRIVER'S SEAT STARTED WOBBLING AND THEN COMPLETELY BROKE LOOSE FROM THE FRAME. HE IS 240 LBS AND WAS JUST DRIVING NORMALLY. OVER TIME ... THE WOBBLING GRADUALLY GOT WORSE. THE SEAT COMPLETELY BROKE LOOSE AS HE WAS ACCELERATING AFTER WAITING FOR A STOP LIGHT. I REMOVED THE SEAT TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG AND SAW THAT BOTH BRACKETS THAT ARE WELDED TO THE FRONT ROD THAT RUNS PARALLEL WITH THE FRONT OF THE DRIVERS SEAT WERE CRACKED AND THE FRONT BOLT ON THE DOOR SIDE OF THE DRIVERS SEAT RIPPED RIGHT THROUGH THE FLIMSY METAL BRACKET ON THE BASE OF THE SEAT. THIS STRUCTURAL DEFECT IS "LIFE THREATENING." HE ALMOST FELL BACKWARDS INTO THE BACK SEAT. HAD THERE BEEN OTHER CARS COMING AT THIS INTERSECTION, HE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO REACT. I CHECKED THE INTERNET AND SAW THAT THIS SEAT/STRUCTURAL DEFECT ON JEEPS GOES BACK TO 1999. HOW CAN THE NHTSA AND JEEP/CHRYSLER IGNORE THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS? THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. JEEP SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS PROBLEM NOW. GIVEN ALL THE BLOGS RELATED TO THIS ISSUE ... THEY SURE WON'T WIN IN COURT. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE W/ 105,000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN MYSTERIOUSLY LOSING COOLANT FOR ABOUT THE LAST 5,000 MILES AND NOW MY OIL PRESSURE IS GOING TO 0 WHEN AT IDLE. AFTER CHECKING ON THIS ONLINE I FIND THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT.THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR MANY JEEP OWNERS AND SOME KIND OF RECALL OR FACTORY REPAIR SHOULD BE FORCED ASAP. THIS PROBLEM WILL INEVITABLY LEAD TO AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT.THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT IT (2ND OWNER) AND DID ALL THE REPAIRS MYSELF BUT THIS REPAIR IS A MAJOR ENGINE OVERHAUL AND SIGNIFICANT EXPENSE. IT IS A SHAME TO HAVE THIS MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE BY SO MANY PEOPLE AND BEING BLOWN OFF BY THE MANUFACTURER. THIS JEEP HAS BEEN OTHERWISE WELL MAINTAINED AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP CHEROKEE 4X4 QUAD DRIVE ,I RECENTLY BROKE DOWN HAD TO BE TOWED. THE PROBLEM WAS COOLING FAN. DUE TO THE RELAY SWITCH. THIS IS JUST ONE OF MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS I HAVE WITH THIS JEEP THE DOOR LOCK MOTORS FAILED THE WINDOWS FAILED ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE DOORS THE BK HATCH FAILED. THE COST FOR THE RELAY PKG WAS 347.59 I HAVE YET TO REPLACE PASSENGERSIDE WINDOW OPERATOR AND DRIVERSIDE DOOR LOCKS AS THEY ARE BOTH WELL OVER 300.00 EACH. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT AS I HAVE HEARD THE SAME COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE THAT OWN 2002 JEEP CHEROKEES. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO. IN THE SPRING OF 2007, MY DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE (THE WINDOW FELL, WOULD NOT ROLL UP OR DOWN). I HAD IT REPLACED. IN OCTOBER 2007, THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO MY PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. IN MAY 2008, THE SAME TO MY RIGHT REAR PASSENGER WINDOW, AND IN SEPT 2008, THE SAME TO MY LEFT REAR PASSENGER WINDOW. ALL WINDOWS HAVE FAILED WITHIN ONE YEAR OF EACH OTHER. THE FINAL STRAW WAS TODAY WHEN THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED AGAIN. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX THESE, AND BELIEVE THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO REPAIR THE WINDOWS. I HAVE RECEIVED AN ESTIMATE OF $347 PER WINDOW TO REPAIR THE THREE WINDOWS. I CAN'T AFFORD THIS AND EXPECT JEEP TO CORRECT THE PROBLEMS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED EXCESSIVELY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE FAILURE WAS CONTINUOUS AND OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND THEY REPLACED BOTH FRONT BRAKE PADS UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE AUTHORIZED DEALER AND INDEPENDENT MECHANIC ON SEPARATE OCCASIONS FOR REPLACEMENT OF BOTH FRONT BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS AT THE CONTACT'S EXPENSE. THERE HAS BEEN NO RESOLUTION AND THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN PROPERLY REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

TL*THE CONTACTS OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. EVER SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, THE CONTACT HAS EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL EXTEND TO THE FLOOR AS IF THERE WERE PRESSURE LOSS. THE CONTACT MUST LITERALLY STAND ON THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. ALSO, THE WIRING ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL THAT CONTROLS THE AIR CONDITIONING FAN HAS FAILED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

MY 2002 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE'S HEAT STOPPED WORKING AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE ACTUATOR DOORS WERE GONE. THIS WAS DETERMINED BY THE DEALER. NOW MY HEATED SEATS HAVE STOPPED WORKING.THE DEALERSHIP GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF ABOUT 1300.00 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE DOORS. *TR

APPROXIMATELY MID JANUARY, THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEATED SEAT CUSHION OVERHEATED AND CAUGHT FIRE. LUCKILY TURNING OFF THE SWITCH EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. HOWEVER IT LEFT A COUPLE OF INCH LONG BURN MARK IN THE LEATHER SEAT COVER. WE HAD BEEN NOTICING "HOT SPOTS" IN THE HEATING ELEMENT, AND MY WIFE HAD PLACED A FLEECE HOOD ON THE SEAT TO SIT ON. THIS ALSO RECEIVED SOME MELTING BUT SAVED HER FROM ANY BURNS. DISCUSSION WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS LEAD TO THE DISCOVERY OF A RECALL INVOLVING JEEP HEATED SEATS. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE DID NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL GUIDELINES. RECALL WAS FOR '03 & '04 MODELS, I HAVE A '02. I ASKED IF THEY WOULD COVER THE REPAIRS ANYWAY AS THE PROBLEM WAS THE SAME, THEY DECLINED. I THEN CONTACTED CHRYSLER/JEEP BY PHONE. I RECEIVED THE SAME RESPONSE FROM A REPRESENTATIVE AND THE SUPERVISOR. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT AN APPEALS PROCESS THEY SAID I HAD JUST BEEN THROUGH IT BY TALKING TO THE SUPERVISOR. MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE '03/'04 RECALL IS THAT BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS AND SEAT BACK HEATING ELEMENTS WOULD BE REPLACED DUE TO POTENTIAL FAILURE. I AM CONCERNED THAT JUST FIXING THE "BROKEN PART" WOULD LEAVE THE POSSIBILITY OF THIS OCCURRING ON THE OTHER SEAT ALSO. I HAVE NOT REPLACED THIS AS YET. WE ARE JUST NOT USING THE HEATED SEATS. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING ON VARIOUS REPLACEMENT OPTIONS AND PRICES SUCH AS FACTORY PARTS, REPLACEMENT WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS, ETC. I WONDER WHAT OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE BESIDES PAYING FOR THIS REPAIR MYSELF? *TR

MY 2002 JEEP CHEROKEE STARTED BLOWING HEAT ONLY ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND COLD AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE WINDOWS WERE CONSTANTLY FOGGING UP MAKING DRIVING ONLY POSSIBLE BY LOWERING THE WINDOWS TO REDUCE FOGGING. NOW, I HAVE NO HEAT AND THE MECHANIC SAYS IT IS MY BLOWER DOORS AND THAT THIS HAPPENS TO ALOT OF JEEPS. WE HAD TO ABANDON THE VEHICLE DURING A SNOW / FREEZING RAIN EVEN LAST WEEK AND THEN COULDN'T DRIVE IT FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS DUE TO FREEZING CONDITIONS. I HAVE REPLACED THE HEATER CORE DUE TO FOGGING WINDOWS 2 YEARS AGO AND THE AC HAD TO BE CHARGED CONSTANTLY TO STAY COOL. THIS IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND YOU FREEZE DURING COLD TIMES. I ALWAYS HAVE TO MAKE SURE PRECIP IN NOT EXPECTED WHENEVER WE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE DURING WINTER MONTHS. JEEP OWNERS NEED HELP WITH THIS...! NOW MY PASSENGER WINDOW WONT GO UP EITHER. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED WITH 84,400 MILES. THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE OF THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WERE (1) RAPID FOGGING OF FRONT WINDSHIELD,(2) FOGGING OF FRONT PASSENGER WINDOWS,(3) FAILURE OF PASSENGER HEAT WHILE STILL MAINTAINING DRIVER HEAT FUNCTION, AND (4) ONLY COLD AIR RELEASE ON PASSENGER SIDE OF JEEP. CONSEQUENTLY,(1) THE WINDSHIELD AND FRONT WINDOWS DO NOT DEFOG, AND (2) NO HEAT WHATSOEVER COMES FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR AND DASHBOARD VENTILATION SYSTEM. TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM, A "BLEND AIR DOOR" IS NECESSARY AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $1,200 INCLUSIVE OF 7 HOURS OF LABOR. ACCORDING TO THE CERTIFIED SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND ONLINE FORUMS, THIS HAS BECOME A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2000-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITEDS WITH DUEL ZONE VENTILATION SYSTEMS. *TR

MY DAUGHTER WAS RETURNING HOME TO MADISON, AL FROM AUBURN UNIVERSITY, ALABAMA USING INTERSTATE I-65 NORTH. JUST OUTSIDE OF BIRMINGHAM, AL AT MILE MARKER 170 SHE HAD A BLOWOUT OF THE RIGHT REAR TIRE. THE TIRE TREAD SEEMED TO COMPLETELY SEPARATE FROM THE SIDEWALL ALL AROUND THE TIRE. THE TIRE WAS COMPLETELY USELESS. THE TIRE WAS ON A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND WITH FULL TIME FOUR WHEEL DRIVE, WHICH WE BELIEVE HELPED MY DAUGHTER COME TO A SAFE STOP ON THE HIGHWAY MEDIAN. THE TIRE WAS A GOODYEAR WRANGLER SR A P235/65 R17 DOT MK87 DYWR 0506. WE ARE NOW VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE REMAINING WRANGLER TIRES ON THIS VEHICLE AND IF IT IS SAFE TO CONTINUE TO USE THEM.

2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND. HEATER/DEFROSTER BLOWING COLD AIR CAUSING WINDSHIELD TO FREEZE UP. I SEARCHED THE COMPLAINTS AND CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON THIS MODEL VEHICLE. HAS 60 MINUTES OR THE NATIONAL MEDIA BEEN APPRISED OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE? THIS IS WHAT I BELIEVE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. MAYBE NOT IF YOU LIVE IN FLORIDA, BUT I LIVE IN CONNECTICUT. I ONLY HOPE SOMEONE WAKES UP AND ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE!!!! *TR

TODAY WHILE DRIVING MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND, THE HEATER STOPPED SENDING WARM AIR TO THE DRIVERSIDE DEFROSTER AND HEAT OUTLETS (HAS DUAL ZONE CONTROLS). I SUSPECTED IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE "FLOW DOORS" WHICH CONTROL THE AMOUNT OF WARM AIR TO ENTER THE PASSENGER CABIN. UPON RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET, IT APPEARS THIS IS AN IDENTIFIED DEFECT AFFECTING MANY JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OWNERS. THE PROBLEM IS APPARENTLY NOT CORRECTABLE WITHOUT REPLACING THE "FLOW DOORS" AND DOOR ACTUATORS. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGE IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND HAVE RECEIVED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE ISSUE. ESTIMATED REPAIR COST IS $1100 PLUS. MY OPINION IS THAT SINCE IT IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURING DEFECT, IT SHOULD BE COVERED THROUGH A RECALL AND AT NO EXPENSE TO THE OWNER. ALSO THE FIX PROVIDED BY CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IS KNOWN TO FAIL PREMATURELY AFTER SHORT PERIOD OF OPERATION. *TR

THE HEATER/AIR CONDITIONER BEGAN WORKING LESS AND LESS EFFICIENTLY. NOW NEITHER WILL WORK AT ALL, CAUSING MY FAMILY TO TRAVEL UNLESS THE WEATHER IS JUST RIGHT. NOTHING THE REPAIRS COST $1400. *TR

THIS IS A COMPLAINT AGAINST NHTSA. IT APPEARS THAT EVEN THOUGH 100'S OF CONSUMERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT A CERTAIN PROBLEM WITH THE AIR FLOW BLEND DOOR ON JEEP GC PRODUCTS NOTHING IS DONE ABOUT IT. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS FAILURE IS A DEFECT AND NOT A WEAR AND TEAR PROBLEM. I AM SURE THERE WOULD BE 1000'S OF COMPLAINTS BUT NOT EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT THIS SITE OR THEY DON'T HAVE A COMPUTER. IT APPEARS THAT THIS WEB SITE DOES NOTHING BUT ALLOW PEOPLE TO VENT ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH THEIR VEHICLES AND NOTHING MORE IS DONE ABOUT IT OR WITH IT. OUR TAX DOLLARS PAY THESE PEOPLE AT NHTSA AND WE GET NOTHING FOR OUR MONEY. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY IT COSTS YOU TO FIX SOMETHING AND THEY DON'T CARE IF IT COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE YOU PHYSICAL INJURY OR EMOTIONAL PAIN BECAUSE IF THEY DID THEN THEY WOULD HAVE DETERMINED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS A DEFECT. . THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE BEEN PERSONALLY AFFECTED BY THE ACTIONS, WELL LACK OF ACTIONS BY THE NHTSA. I FEEL IT IS A WASTE OF TIME FOR ANYONE TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE NHTSA SINCE THEY DO NOTHING WITH THE INFORMATION YOU GIVE THEM. HAVE A HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON ALL YOU JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OWNERS. *TR

FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WENT DOWN AND WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW ALL THREE REMAINING WINDOWS ARE DOWN. ALL THREE WENT WITHIN THE SAME MONTH. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A FACTORY DEFECTIVE PROBLEM AND VERY EXPENSIVE. CHRYSLER SHOULD RECALL AND COVER THIS ISSUE AT THEIR EXPENSE. *TR

I WAS GETTING READY TO GO TO WORK. IT WAS COLD AND I NEEDED TO TURN ON THE HEAT. I TURNED THE HEAT ON AND ALL I GOT WAS COLD AIR, THE ENTIRE 30 MILES THAT IT TAKES FOR ME TO GET TO WORK. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS MY BLEND DOORS AND THAT IT WOULD COST $1500. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED V8. SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE I HAVE BEEN BATTLING WITH NO HEAT. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BLEND DOOR THAT COMES WITH THE DUAL MODULE HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM. I SELL HOMES AND PEOPLE DO NOT GET LOANS IF THERE IS NO HEAT IN THE HOUSE. IT IS CONSIDERED UNINHIBITEDLY. WHAT DO I SAY TO MY 2 YEAR OLD WHEN THEY WANT TO BE WARM WHILE DRIVING ANYWHERE IN THE COLD MONTHS. THEIR ARE TO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME VEHICLES. A RECALL IS MANDATORY. *TR

PRIOR TO THE PROBLEM THE VEHICLE PERFORMED AS DESIGNED AND THEN SUDDENLY A SNAP NOISE CAME FROM THE DASH AREA AND THEN THE WINDOWS FOGGED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THE FAILURE WAS A PLASTIC COMPONENT OF THE CLIMATE CONTROL VENT SYSTEM AND THE CONSEQUENCES ARE NO HEATING OF THE DRIVERS COMPARTMENT AND COMPROMISED COMFORT & VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THE ONLY SOLUTION THAT THE JEEP DEALER OFFERS IS TO REPLACE THE BADLY DESIGNED EXPENSIVE PARTS WITH EQUALLY INFERIOR EXPENSIVE OEM REPLACEMENT PARTS WHICH ARE INEVITABLY GOING TO BREAK AGAIN. DIAGNOSTIC / REPAIR QUOTE $1600.00 I SOUGHT ADVICE / INFO REGARDING MY PROBLEM AND DISCOVERED ON MY OWN A COMPANY IN TEXAS WHICH MAKES A RELIABLE / PERMANENT SOLUTION FOR THE JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE POORLY DESIGNED DUAL CONTROL VENT & RECIRC SYSTEMS. I BOUGHT AN AFTER MKT REPAIR KIT FROM A TEXAS CO. HEATERTREATER.COM FOR $225. THE SUPERIOR DESIGNED PARTS ARE IMPERVIOUS TO BREAKAGE LIKE THE OEM JEEP COMPONENTS AND WILL NOT REPEAT THIS TROUBLE IN MY VEHICLE LIKE THE ORIGINAL PARTS. PLEASE REVIEW HEATERTREATER.COM AS USEFUL INFO AS TO HOW JEEP ENGINEERS SHOULD HAVE BUILT IT AND TO SEE DEMONSTRATION OF THE PROBLEM. MY OLD PARTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR YOU TO REVIEW. *TR

MY 2002 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED HAS 64,000 MILES ON IT. THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. TOOK IT TO JEEP DEALERSHIP. COMPUTER HOOK UP INDICATED A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM.

COMPUTER NOW SAYS THE 02 SENSOR IS BAD. REPLACED 02 SENSOR. WHILE GETTING TO THE 02 SENSOR, WAS TOLD A BOLT WAS RUSTED TO TRANS. COOLANT LINE AND BROKE A HOLE IN IT. HAD THE COOLANT LINE REPLACED. NOW THE JEEP STALLS! HAD TO DRIVE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH ONE FOOT ON THE GAS, ONE ON THE BRAKE TO KEEP JEEP RUNNING AND NOT TO CAUSE AND ACCIDENT! NOW I'M TOLD MY SPARK PLUGS NEED REPLACING AND FUEL SYSTEM CLEANED. REPLACED SPARK PLUGS, FUEL SYSTEM WAS CLEANED AND REPLACED THE IDLE AIR CONTROL MOTOR!!! JEEP STALLS WHEN PUTTING INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE! WHY IS THE JEEP STALLING????? I'VE ALREADY DUMPED A PILE OF MONEY INTO IT AND IT'S WORSE OFF THAN WHEN I TOOK IT IN THE FIRST PLACE! *TR

BLEND DOORS FAILED ON 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. CANNOT GET HEAT, DEFROST WINDOWS, ETC. THIS HAPPEN TO OUR JEEP AT 80,000 MILES, BUT I HAVE HEARD FROM MANY JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, SOME HAPPENING AS SOON AS 40,000 MILES. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF ONE CANNOT PROPERLY DEFROST WINDOWS. COST IS $1,200 TO REPAIR PER DEALERSHIP. *TR

NO HEAT, POOR DEFROSTER PERFORMANCE. WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM IS THE HEATER BLEND DOOR HAS FAILED AND THE COST IS AROUND $`1,800.00 TO REPAIR. I STARTED LAST WINTER WITH NO HEAD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, NOW THERE IS NO HEAT ON EITHER SIDE. DEFROSTERS NOT PROPERLY CLEARING WINDSHIELD. *TR

APPARENTLY THERE IS A HUGE NUMBER OF JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OWNERS WITH DEFECTIVE BLEND DOOR ACTUATORS. I AM ONE OF THEM. I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED AND HAVE NO HEAT ON MY PASSENGER SIDE. NO DEFROST, BIG SAFETY ISSUE. DEALER QUOTES OVER $1,000 TO REPAIR. I CAN'T AFFORD THAT! *TR

IN THE FALL OF 2007, THE HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE STOPPED WORKING. I DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND THIS PROBLEM WAS SO COMMON THAT I EASILY FOUND PLENTY OF PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THAT WERE ABLE TO SELF-DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM USING THE JEEPS INTERNAL COMPUTER TO OUTPUT THE SYSTEM FAULTS. USING THE SAME METHOD TO ENTER THE AZC SELF-DIAGNOSTIC MODE, THE CLIMATE CONTROL DISPLAY OUTPUT THE SYSTEM FAULT CODES 52-54-56. SINCE MOST OF THE CONSUMERS I'VE RUN INTO WITH THIS PROBLEM GET THAT EXACT CODE, OR HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM DIAGNOSED BY A JEEP DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT, I ALREADY KNOW THAT IT WILL COST ANYWHERE FROM $1000+ TO BE REPAIRED, THE MAJORITY OF IT BEING LABOR AS THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REMOVED. TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM, DAIMLER-CHRYSLER RELEASED TSB 2400104 - NEW HVAC SUB-ASSEMBLY REPLACES BLEND OR RECIRC DOOR COMPONENTS. EACH NEW SUB-ASSEMBLY CONSISTS OF SEVERAL INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS. THE NEW SUB-ASSEMBLIES IMPROVE COMPONENT RELIABILITY. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE RESPECTIVE SUB-ASSEMBLY BE INSTALLED IF A BLEND AIR DOOR(S), A RECIRCULATION DOOR, A DOOR LINK, OR A SUB-ASSEMBLY HOUSING REQUIRES REPLACEMENT. THESE NEW PARTS COST LESS THAN $200 ACCORDING TO THE BULLETIN, BUT I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT DAIMLER-CHRYSLER EXPECTS THEIR CUSTOMERS TO PICK UP THE TAB ON A DESIGN FLAW. ESPECIALLY A DESIGN FLAW THAT IS SO LABOR INTENSIVE THAT EVEN THOUGH THE PARTS ARE LESS THAN $200, THE FINAL BILL WILL BE MORE THAN $1,000. A JOB SO CONSUMING THAT IT WOULDN'T BE WISE TO HAVE IT SERVICED BY ANYTHING BUT A JEEP SERVICE TECHNICIAN. NOT TO MENTION SOME REPAIR SHOPS WONT EVEN TAKE ON THE JOB DUE TO THE TIME AND POSSIBLE ACCOUNTABILITY OF SUCH A PROJECT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE; NOT ONLY BECAUSE YOU LOSE THE ABILITY TO DEFROST BUT OF THE EFFECTS EXTREME COLD CAN HAVE ON A BODY TOO. THE NHTSB NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS WITH DAIMLER CHRYLSER. *TR

INABILITY TO SEE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD DUE TO EXCESSIVE MOISTURE ON WINDSHIELD AND UNABLE TO CLEAR WINDSHIELD. *TR

MY 2002 GRAND CHEROKEE SUDDENLY HAS NO HEAT. THE DEFROSTER WORKS RANDOMLY AND SOMETIMES SHUTS DOWN ONLY BLOWING COLD, OUTSIDE AIR CAUSING THE WINDOW TO FOG UP WITH NO WARNING. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ONLINE THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS, THE DEALER FIX IS TO TAKE OFF THE DASH ($1000+ IN LABOR) TO FIX A $20 PART. THERE ARE PARTS AVAILABLE ONLINE TO DO THE FIX YOURSELF FOR $100. SEEMS TO ME THAT NOT ONLY DOES JEEP KNOW THERE IS A FACTORY DEFAULT WITH THEIR JEEPS, THEY RIP PEOPLE OFF BY CHARGING EXORBITANT AMOUNTS OF $$ TO FIX SOMETHING SIMPLE. I SEARCHED THROUGH YOUR DATABASE AND THERE ARE PAGES AND PAGES OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE. AT THIS POINT I AM GOING TO FIX IT MYSELF BECAUSE I CANT GO THROUGH THE WINTER WITHOUT HEAT, BUT IM SURE AS HECK NOT GOING TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND GET CHARGED $2500. AND IM DEFINITELY NEVER BUYING ANOTHER GM CAR AGAIN. *TR

THE A/C, AND HEATER DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY!!! ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED (WJ), THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, THERE IS A FLAP UNDER THE DASH THAT IS JAMMED SHUT, SO THE HEAT ONLY WORKS ON ONE SIDE!!! I GOT A QUOTE TO GET THIS PROBLEM REPAIRED, AND IT WAS 800-1200 MINIMUM!!!! *TR

THIS IS IN REGARDS TO THE BLEND DOOR ISSUE ON JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE MODELS THAT HAVE THE DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL. THE FACT THAT THIS ISSUE IS IMMINENT IN NEARLY EVERY ONE OF THESE VEHICLES IS DISTURBING ENOUGH IN ITSELF, BUT WHAT IS DOWNRIGHT UNACCEPTABLE IS THAT THE AVERAGE COST TO REPAIR RANGES FROM 1000.00-1300.00!! THIS ISSUE IS SO PREVALENT THAT 3 DIFFERENT JEEP SITE FORUMS HAVE HAD SO MANY JEEP OWNERS BRING THIS UP THAT IT HAS BECOME A POSTED ISSUE. I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2002 MODEL AND, KNOCK ON WOOD, HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE. I BELIEVE IT ACTUALLY MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN TAKEN CARE OF, BUT IN THE EVENT THAT I AM WRONG, I CAN ONLY HOPE AND PRAY THAT DC/JEEP HAS STEPPED UP AND DONE WHAT IS RIGHT, AND, AT THE VERY LEAST, AS A RECALL/TSB, COVERS A LARGE PORTION OF THIS REPAIR. *TR

THE CAR DOES NOT BLOW HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. APPARENTLY THERE IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE BLEND DOORS AND THE ACTUATORS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS IN THE WINTER WHEN THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE JEEP DOES NOT DEFROST BECAUSE NO WORM AIR BLOWS OUT. NO VISIBILITY. *TR

IN THE FALL OF 2006, THE HEAT IN MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE STOPPED WORKING. I DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND THIS PROBLEM WAS SO COMMON THAT I EASILY FOUND PLENTY OF PEOPLE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THAT WERE ABLE TO SELF-DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM USING THE JEEP'S INTERNAL COMPUTER TO OUTPUT THE SYSTEM FAULTS. USING THE SAME METHOD TO ENTER THE AZC SELF-DIAGNOSTIC MODE, THE CLIMATE CONTROL DISPLAY OUTPUTTED THE SYSTEM FAULT CODES 52-54-56. SINCE MOST OF THE CONSUMERS I'VE RUN INTO WITH THIS PROBLEM GET THAT EXACT CODE, OR HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM DIAGNOSED BY A JEEP DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT, I ALREADY KNOW THAT IT WILL COST ANYWHERE FROM $1000+ TO BE REPAIRED, THE MAJORITY OF IT BEING LABOR AS THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REMOVED. TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM, DAIMLER-CHRYSLER RELEASED TSB 2400104 - NEW HVAC SUB-ASSEMBLY REPLACES BLEND OR RECIRC DOOR COMPONENTS. EACH NEW SUB-ASSEMBLY CONSISTS OF SEVERAL INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS. THE NEW SUB-ASSEMBLIES IMPROVE COMPONENT RELIABILITY. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE RESPECTIVE SUB-ASSEMBLY BE INSTALLED IF A BLEND AIR DOOR(S), A RECIRCULATION DOOR, A DOOR LINK, OR A SUB-ASSEMBLY HOUSING REQUIRES REPLACEMENT. THESE NEW PARTS COST LESS THAN $200 ACCORDING TO THE BULLETIN, BUT I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT DAIMLER-CHRYSLER EXPECTS THEIR CUSTOMERS TO PICK UP THE TAB ON A DESIGN FLAW. ESPECIALLY A DESIGN FLAW THAT IS SO LABOR INTENSIVE THAT EVEN THOUGH THE PARTS ARE LESS THAN $200, THE FINAL BILL WILL BE MORE THAN $1,000. A JOB SO CONSUMING THAT IT WOULDN'T BE WISE TO HAVE IT SERVICED BY ANYTHING BUT A JEEP SERVICE TECHNICIAN. NOT TO MENTION SOME REPAIR SHOPS WON'T EVEN TAKE ON THE JOB DUE TO THE TIME AND POSSIBLE ACCOUNTABILITY OF SUCH A PROJECT. TO MAKE A VEHICLE WHERE THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY IS UNACCEPTABLE AND MOST LIKELY DANGEROUS. NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE EFFECTS EXTREME COLD CAN HAVE ON A BODY, BUT ALSO DUE TO THE HEAT BEING USED FOR DEFROSTING. IT COST $884.00 TO REPAIR. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE SEAT FRAME SPONTANEOUSLY FAILED AND ALLOWED THE SEAT TO SUDDENLY RETRACT BACKWARDS. THE FAILURE INCREASED THE RISK OF A CRASH. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ENTIRE SEAT FRAME NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF OVER $400. HE IS IN THE PROCESS OF HAVING THE SEATS REPAIRED. SECONDLY, THE POWER WINDOWS WORKED INTERMITTENTLY. THE DEALER REPLACED THE WINDOW REGULATORS. THIRDLY, HE NOTICED THAT FLUID FROM THE HEATER COIL LEAKED INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE VEHICLE EXCEEDED THE WARRANTY. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 94,000.

2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. BLOWER CONTROLLER CONNECTOR IS OVERHEATING AND MELTING CONNECTOR AND NOW NOT WORKING. REPLACEMENT WITH NEW CONNECTOR IS POSSIBLE FROM DEALER WITH MORPAR REPAIR KIT #05102406AA . HOWEVER... THIS DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN. THIS IS DUE TO STRAIN ON THE BLOWER MOTOR DRAWING HIGH AMPS BECAUSE THE COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS JEEP IS WITH THE AC "BLEND DOORS" WHICH WAS THE FIRST PROBLEM FOR ME....AS WITH MANY JEEP CHEROKEE OWNERS. IT COSTS OVER $1000 TO FIX A SIMPLE PROBLEM WITH THE BLEND DOOR BECAUSE THE ENTIRE DASH HAS TO BE REMOVED! SO, THE BLEND DOORS ARE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH AN EXPENSIVE FIX, AND IF YOU DON'T FIX IT, THE BLOWER MOTOR AND CONTROLLER WILL OVERHEAT, LEAVING YOU WITH NO AIR CONTROL TO REMOVE MOISTURE IN DAMP WEATHER. THE CONTROLLER COULD OVERHEAT, POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE, OR IF THE CONTROLLER AND BLOWER DON'T WORK, YOU HAVE NO WAY OF CLEARING FOGGY WINDOWS....BAD THING! VERY FRUSTRATED AS THIS SHOULD BE PART OF A MAJOR RECALL. WHY SHOULD SO MANY JEEP OWNERS HAVE TO PAY FOR A SIMPLE, YET EXPENSIVE FIX? *TR

ALSO NOW THE AC IS BLOWING HOT AIR AND THEY ARE TELLING ME IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BLEND DOORS.

NO ONE AT THE 800 NUMBERS CAN OFFER ANY SOLUTIONS. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, SO THE REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COVERED, MINUS MY $100 DEDUCTIBLE. BUT, I DON'T THINK THE NUMBER OF REPAIRS IS QUESTIONABLE.

HOWEVER, THE PASSENGER SIDE STILL WORKED FINE. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED AND I KNOW IT WILL COST WAY MORE THAN I CAN EVER AFFORD FOR THIS REPAIR. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THIS ISSUE AND UNDERSTAND THAT THE PROBLEM IS IMMINENT TO JEEP OWNERS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE COMPANY FEELS IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT A LUXURY. HOWEVER IT IS FOR MOST OF US THAT OWN A SUV IT IS BECAUSE WE NEED TO TRANSPORT OUR FAMILIES COMFORTABLY. FOR THAT IS WHAT THEY ADVERTISE. I HAVE A NEW BORN CHILD AND I THINK IT IS RIDICULES I CAN NOT TRANSPORT HER IN MY JEEP BECAUSE IT IS TO COLD FOR HER AND SHE WOULD BE AT RISK OF GETTING PNEUMONIA, BECAUSE THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION HAS FAILED TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND WITH 44,500 MILES. THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE OF THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WERE (1) RAPID FOGGING OF FRONT WINDSHIELD,(2) FOGGING OF FRONT PASSENGER WINDOWS,(3) FAILURE OF PASSENGER HEAT WHILE STILL MAINTAINING DRIVER HEAT FUNCTION, AND (4) ONLY COLD AIR RELEASE ON PASSENGER SIDE OF JEEP. CONSEQUENTLY,(1) THE WINDSHIELD AND FRONT WINDOWS DO NOT DEFOG, AND (2) NO HEAT WHATSOEVER COMES FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR AND DASHBOARD VENTILATION SYSTEM. IN ADDITION TO THE FOGGING THERE IS A LEAK OF ANTIFREEZE, HAZARDOUS MATERIAL, COMING INTO THE VEHICLE DRIVER AND PASSENGER AREAS, DUE TO DEFECTIVE HEATER CORE. TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM, A "BLEND AIR DOOR" IS NECESSARY AND A NEW HEATER CORE AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $1,700 INCLUSIVE OF 7 HOURS OF LABOR. ACCORDING TO THE CERTIFIED SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND ONLINE FORUMS, THIS HAS BECOME A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2000-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITEDS/OVERLANDS WITH DUAL ZONE VENTILATION SYSTEMS. *TR

I PLOWED INTO THE 2008 CHEVROLET PUSHING IT INTO THE INTERSECTION. TO AVOID HITTING IT AGAIN, I TURNED THE WHEEL HARD TO THE RIGHT AS THERE WERE 2 LANES OF TRAFFIC WAITING FOR THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TO TURN GREEN. I WAS TOLD I WENT AROUND THE CORNER ON 2 WHEELS, AGAIN AT A GREAT RATE OF SPEED, JUST BARELY TOUCHING ONE CAR AND TEARING THE FRONT END OFF OF A 2000 HONDA VAN. THERE WERE A TOTAL OF 4 CARS IN THE ACCIDENT, 3 OF WHICH WERE TOTALED, AND A TOTAL OF 10 PEOPLE IN THESE CARS.

PROBLEM STARTED RIGHT AFTER I PURCHASED MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED IN OCT 2006. PASSENGER SIDE HEAT VENTS STARTED BLOWING REALLY COLD AIR. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC..HE SAID THE BLEND DOORS WERE BAD. IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. WELL I GOT THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE JEEP FROM TO PAY FOR IT WHICH WAS AROUND $900. WELL THEN IN JAN 2008 MY HEAT STARTED TURNING ON AND OFF BY ITSELF. FINALLY YESTERDAY 1/30/08 MY HEAT JUST STOPPED WORKING. I CALLED MY WARRANTY PROVIDER..OF COURSE THIS IS NOT COVERED. I CALLED JEEP DEALERSHIP SAID IT WILL COST $1200 TO FIX THE EVERYTHING. IT IS -24 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND MY WINDOW KEEPS FOGGING UP THEN FREEZING..A TOTAL SAFETY ISSUE. I DO NOT HAVE THIS TYPE OF MONEY TO FIX IT. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER AND I DID NOT GET ANYWHERE WITH THEM. SAME VOICE RECORDED MESSAGE. I HAVE LOOKED OVER AND OVER TO SEE IF THIS PROBLEM WITH THE HEAT WAS COMMON AND IT IS REALLY COMMON FOR 2002 JGC LIMITED. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING. THIS IS TOTALLY UNCALLED FOR. *TR

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED BEGAN UNINTENTIONALLY ACCELERATING.

MY WIFE AND I HAVE A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE WHICH HAS ABOUT 79K MILES. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN VERY GOOD TO US DURING THIS TIME AND WAS IN MINT CONDITION UNTIL FRIDAY NIGHT. FRIDAY NIGHT I WENT OUT TO DO SOME ERRANDS WHEN I APPROACHED AN INTERSECTION HERE IN MY TOWN OF WEBSTER. THE LIGHT WAS RED AND ONE CAR WAS IN FRONT OF ME. I STARTED TO SLOW DOWN WHEN THE CAR ACCELERATED UNCONTROLLABLY WHERE I COULD NOT STOP. I SMASHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND SO THAT I DID NOT HIT HIM AGAIN, I TURNED RIGHT AT THIS FOUR WAY INTERSECTION AND THERE WERE TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO TURN GREEN. I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL SO HARD THAT I WAS NOW ON 2 WHEELS TRYING TO AVOID HITTING ANY OF THE CARS AS WELL. I GRAZED ONE CAR, BUT TORE THE FRONT END OF A HONDA VAN OFF BEFORE MY JEEP CAME TO A HALT ACROSS THE STREET. THIS ALL HAPPENED IN 3-5 SECONDS. BY THE WILL OF GOD I DID NOT KILL ANYONE OR SERIOUSLY HURT ANYONE, AS I WAS VERY LUCKY. MOST PEOPLE, 10 IN ALL IN THE FOUR VEHICLES, I AM SURE HAVE ACHES AND PAINS LIKE I DO TODAY. IF I WOULD HAVE HIT ANY CAR BROADSIDE, I WOULD HAVE KILLED I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY. DAMAGE DONE, I WOULD SAY THAT 3 OF THE 4 CARS ARE TOTALED. I FOUND THROUGH MY SON THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH CHRYSLER AND THAT THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY RECALLS. PLEASE GO INTO GOOGLE AND TYPE IN "JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ACCELERATING ON OWN" AND GO TO THE 4TH ONE DOWN AND LOOK AT ALL THE ACCIDENTS RELATED TO THIS SAME PROBLEM. ALSO MY SISTER IN VIRGINIA GAVE ME A NEWS STATION DOWN THERE THAT CARRIED A STORY ON THIS. AGAIN, GO INTO GOOGLE AND TYPE IN "10 ON YOUR SIDE JEEP SAFETY" AND SEE THEIR NEWS CLIP. I AM ASKING YOU WITH YOUR WIDE ARRAY OF CONTACTS TO GET THIS WORD OUT TO PEOPLE AS THESE ITEMS ARE VERY ISOLATED, BUT THE FACT STILL REMAINS THAT SOMEDAY THERE WILL BE AN ACCIDENT WHERE SEVERAL PEOPLE GET KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT THAT CHRYSLER DOWN NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT.

SHE CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER AND THEY INSTRUCTED HER TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR INSPECTION. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED TO THE DEALER, SHE NOTICED FREON RISING FROM THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. AS A RESULT, OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM BEGAN TO FAIL. THE AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATER NO LONGER WORKED. THE DEALER STATED THAT NOT ONLY HAD HER BLOWER MOTOR AND RESISTER FAILED, BUT THE HEATER CORE, EVAPORATOR CORE, ACTUATOR, AND BLEND DOOR (WHICH NO LONGER PROVIDED HEAT ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE) WERE CORRODED AS WELL. THE DEALER FURTHER STATED THAT THE FREON FROM THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ORIGINATED FROM THE EVAPORATOR CORE, INDICATING THE PRESENCE OF ETHANOL (TOXIC GAS). THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT OFFERED ANY ASSISTANCE AND STATED THAT THE FAILURES WERE DUE TO LACK OF MAINTENANCE. CURRENTLY, THE ESTIMATED COST THAT THE CONTACT HAS SPENT ON REPAIRS IS $2,000.

WHILE DRIVING, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW SLID DOWN IN ITS TRACK. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND PULL THE WINDOW UP BY HAND. THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO MY JEEP'S FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW ON 12/22/05, EXCEPT THAT OCCURRED AT NIGHT AND IT WAS 15 DEGREES OUTSIDE (LIVED IN NY AT THE TIME)-HAD TO DRIVE HALF AN HOUR HOME WITH THE WINDOW WIDE OPEN. *TR

I HAVE HAD EACH OF THESE REPLACED AT A CHRYSLER DEALER. CHRYSLER IS QUITE AWARE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH IT'S VEHICLES, BUT IS UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, BECAUSE IT IS NOT A "SAFETY ISSUE". THIS PART WITH LABOR IS $460 EACH TIME IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CHRYSLER IS WILLING TO KEEP DRAINING THE POCKETS OF ITS CONSUMERS WITH NO CARE TO ITS LOYAL CUSTOMERS. THERE ARE 5 PAGES OF COMPLAINTS ON AUTOMOTIVE.COM WITH THE SAME ISSUES. I WANT TO FILE AN OFFICIAL COMPLAINT. CHRYSLER IS UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I WOULD LIKE MY MONEY BACK. I THINK THIS CAR IS A LEMON!!!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE AFTER READING ON THE INTERNET AND READING THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE! I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEELLIMITED WITH DUAL HEAT ZONE. I RECENTLY LOST HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. NOW YOU ASK HOW IS THIS A SAFETY ISSUE? WELL WHEN YOU HAVE IT ON DEFROST YOU HAVE HEAT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND ICE COLD AIR BLOWING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. (REMEMBER THAT WHEN YOU HAVE THE DEFROSTER ON THE A/C PUMP CIRCULATES WHICH CAUSES VERY COLD AIR TO BLOW) NOW ONLY PART OF YOUR WINDSHIELD IS CLEARING UP. I LIVE IN CENTRAL PA WHERE THE WEATHER IS ALWAYS CHANGING. ESPECIALLY IN THE FALL AND SPRING. THIS TEMPERATURE CHANGE CAN CAUSE THE WINDSHIELD TO FOG UP RATHER QUICKLY ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S DAMP AND THERE ARE WARM BODIES IN THE CAR. THIS CAN OCCUR WHEN YOUR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT ANY TIME. I WORK FOR NAPA AUTO PARTS AND TRAVEL IN 3 STATES. I'M A FORMER VEHICLE TECHNICIAN AND KNOW A LOT OF REPAIR SHOPS. I WAS BLOWN AWAY AT HOW MANY OF THESES REPAIR SHOP KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND SAID THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON. THEY ALSO STATED THAT IT IS VERY TIME CONSUMING AND VERY COSTLY TO REPAIR. MOST DEALERSHIP STOCK THE PARTS TO REPAIR THIS. THIS ALONE SHOULD THROW UP A RED FLAG! THE BLEND DOORS WERE DESIGNED VERY CHEAPLY AND WE THE CONSUMER HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. ANYONE CAN SEE THE HAZARD HERE THE QUESTION IS, WILL SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING BEFORE THERE IS A DEATH? ( THERE MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN SOME, BUT NOBODY WILL EVER KNOW IF THE PERSON IS DEAD!). NOW YOU KNOW WHY THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. I CAN TELL YOU THAT NOT MANY PEOPLE ARE AWARE OF THIS WEBSITE. YOU WOULD HAVE A LOT MORE COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE IF THEY DID. *TR

VISIBILITY HEATING AND COOLING. PASSENGER SIDE AIR WONT HEAT. DRIVERS SIDE WORKS FINE ON DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL OVERLAND. PASSENGER SIDE WILL NOT. WHEN I PHONE MY LOCAL DEALER HERE IN YANKTON SD, THE SERVICE REP ACTUALLY COMPLETED MY SENTENCE WHEN I WAS DESCRIBING THE PROBLEM. HE INDICATES THIS IS A REPEATING ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE GRAND CHEROKEE. HE EVEN DESCRIBED THE IMPAIRED VISION AS A RESULT OF THE VERY WELL KNOWN MALFUNCTION. HE TOLD MY WIFE AND I THAT UNLESS THERE IS A SEVERE CHANCE OF PERSONAL INJURY JEEP WILL NOT STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS POOR DESIGN FLAW. ALSO HE INDICATED IT MAY COST AS MUCH AS $1500 TO FIX. HE SUGGESTED I STUFF PLASTIC BAGS INTO THE HEAT DUCT TO STOP THE FLOW OF COLD AIR UNTIL I GET IT REPAIRED. HE COMMENTED THAT POOR VISIBILITY WILL CONTINUE IF NOT WORSEN BY DOING SO. PLAIN AND SIMPLE, JEEP NEEDS TO TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THEIR DESIGN FLAW. THE KNOW THE PROBLEM IS THEIRS BUT CONTINUE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS FOR THEIR OWN DOING. IF I WANTED THIS KIND OF TREATMENT, I WOULD OF PURCHASED A GM. THE TACOMA, GREAT PERFORMER AND SERVICE PEOPLE WHO DON'T TAKE YOU FOR AN IDIOT. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED AND ALWAYS HEARD NOISES FROM THE VENT SINCE I BOUGHT THE JEEP, GOT IT CHECKED OUT WHEN IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY DID SOMETHING TO THE ACTUATOR. A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO I HAD COOLANT LEAKING INTO MY CAR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, HAD TO GET A NEW HEATER CORE ($800) THEN WHEN THEY FINISHED NO HEAT WAS COMING OUT, IT WAS THE BLEND DOOR SO THEY HAD TO REDO ALL THE WORK IN GETTING IN THERE ($350 AFTER I COMPLAINED), 3 MONTHS AGO, SAME PROBLEM HEATER CORE LEAK ($920), NOW 3 MONTHS AFTER THAT I HAVE NO HEAT, TOOK IT IN LAST WEEK, BLEND DOOR PROBLEM AND $730. I HAVE NO HEAT IN MY JEEP!! I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY DO NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM WITH SO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND I HAVE HAD IT TWICE! SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. *TR

WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, DRIVER SIDE WINDOW FELL, AND POWER WINDOW CONTROL FAILED TO RAISE THE WINDOW. IT IS NOW STUCK IN THE HALF-OPEN POSITION, PENDING REPAIR. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A COMMON RECURRING PROBLEM AMONG JEEP OWNERS, AND THAT THE REPAIR IS APPROX. $400 FOR EACH INCIDENT. GIVEN THE HUNDREDS OF OWNER REPORTS I HAVE SINCE DISCOVERED FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM, CHRYSLER SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO BOTH IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF THE PART(S) AND REMEDY THE PROBLEM. *TR

WE HAVE A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND SINCE THE FIRST MONTH THAT WE PURCHASED IT NWE WE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE WINDOW REGULATORS BREAKING. WE HAVE NOW HAD FOUR TO BREAK IN THE FIVE YEARS THAT WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST ONE THAT BROKE WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THE OTHER THREE HAVE TAKEN PLACE SINCE THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST OF THIS YEAR. THE FIRST WINDOW REGULATOR THAT WE HAD TO HAVE REPAIRED BY THE DEALERSHIP COST $422. WE HAVE NOT HAD THE OTHER TWO WINDOWS FIXED YET, BECAUSE WE ARE HOPING THAT DAIMLER CHRYSLER WILL HELP US OUT WITH THIS. I HAVE CONTACTED THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER AND THEY WILL NOT COVER THE MALFUNCTION DUE TO THE WARRANTY EXPIRING. I FEEL THIS IS AN EVENTUAL SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN THE CABLE SNAPS IT SOUNDS LIKE A SHOT GUN FIRING, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE DRIVER TO REACT TO THE NOISE. MORE THAN ANYTHING, I FIND IT TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT CONSUMER NATION WIDE ARE HAVING TO PAY FOR. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS OF JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OWNERS ON CAR FORUM WEBSITES ON THE INTERNET. *TR

TURNED ON MY 02 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON A COLD JANUARY MORNING, THERE WAS NO HEAT AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES. THIS PROBLEM PERSISTED FOR A WEEK AND AFTER BRINGING MY VEHICLE TO A NEARBY DEALER, I WAS INFORMED THE BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR HAD FAILED. THE COST TO REPAIR THE ISSUE WOULD BE IN EXCESS OF $1000 AND IF I HAD OPTED TO PERFORM THE PROCEDURE MYSELF THE PARTS ALONE WOULD HAVE COST UPWARDS OF $300 AND TAKEN AT LEAST 8 HOURS TO COMPLETE. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE ON ALL 1999-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES AND LEADS TO COMPLETE HEAT FAILURE WITH EXCESSIVELY EXPENSIVE REPAIR COSTS. *TR

WHEN I TRIED TO START MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, THERE WAS A LOUD BANG AND THE SMELL OF SOMETHING THAT HAD BURNED. THE NEXT DAY I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER. I WAS TOLD THAT THE INTAKE MANIFOLD BLEW OFF AND THE PARTS ARE ON BACKORDER. IT HAS NOW BEEN OVER A MONTH AND I WAS TOLD IT WILL BE ANOTHER MONTH BEFORE PARTS WILL BE RECEIVED. THE DEALER TOLD ME THEY HAD NEVER SEEN AN INCIDENT OF THE TYPE I EXPERIENCED.

MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FIRST LOST HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, THEN A FEW MONTHS LATER THE DRIVERS SIDE HEAT WOULD NOT WORK AS WELL. I WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT THE BLEND DOORS ACTUATORS WERE NOT WORKING AND WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF $800-$1000. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM.

I DECIDED THAT THIS WASN'T A RARITY BUT SOME SORT OF DEFECT AND TURNED TO THE INTERNET TO FIND OUT WHAT I SHOULD DO ABOUT THE PROBLEM. TO MY DISMAY I FIND THAT THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE RUN INTO THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND THAT IT IS BECAUSE OF A PISS POOR DESIGN THAT JEEP DOESN'T WANT TO FIX. EVEN MORE TO MY DISMAY I FIND THAT NOT ONLY DOES JEEP NOT WANT TO FIX THE ISSUE THAT WANT TO CHARGE $450 PER WINDOW TO FIX IT. *JB

THE HVAC BLEND DOORS ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE (WJ) OVERLAND FAILED AT APPROXIMATELY 88, 000 MILES CAUSING A LOSS OF HEAT AND DEFROST ABILITIES. DUE TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE VEHICLE IT WILL REQUIRE A TRAINED MECHANIC A QUOTED SEVEN HOURS OF LABOR TO REPLACE A PLASTIC PART WHICH HAS FAILED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, THE LOSS OF DEFROST ABILITY, THAT JEEP MANUFACTURES HAVE BEEN AWARE OF AND THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED SO THAT THESE JEEPS, REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE MAY BE REPAIRED AT NO COST TO THE CURRENT JEEP OWNER. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND WITH 60,000 MILES. THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE OF THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WERE (1) RAPID FOGGING OF FRONT WINDSHIELD,(2) FOGGING OF FRONT PASSENGER WINDOWS,(3) FAILURE OF PASSENGER HEAT AND DRIVER HEAT FUNCTION, AND (4) ONLY COLD AIR RELEASE ON BOTH SIDES OF JEEP. CONSEQUENTLY,(1) THE WINDSHIELD AND FRONT WINDOWS DO NOT DEFOG, AND (2) NO HEAT WHATSOEVER COMES FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR AND DASHBOARD VENTILATION SYSTEM. TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM, A "BLEND AIR DOOR" IS NECESSARY AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $1,200 INCLUSIVE OF 7 HOURS OF LABOR. ACCORDING TO THE CERTIFIED SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND ONLINE FORUMS, THIS HAS BECOME A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2000-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITEDS WITH DUEL ZONE VENTILATION SYSTEMS. *TR

MY JEEP 2000 GRAND CHEROKEE SUDDENLY WILL PRODUCE NO HEAT, THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE THE WINDOWS WILL NOT DEFOG AND CAN CREATE SERIOUS VISIBILITY PROBLEMS. THE HEATING SYSTEM WILL ONLY BLOW COLD AIR, WHICH CAN SUDDENLY CREATE CONDENSATION ON THE WINDOW AND ENTIRELY OBSCURE VISIBILITY. THERE WERE NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE, IT JUST STOPPED WORKING. UPON A SHORT BIT OF RESEARCH, IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE'S FROM 2000-2004 AND JEEP WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE IT AS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT EVEN THOUGH THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS ARE HAVING THIS SAME SAFETY PROBLEM HAPPEN TO THEM. *TR

THE HEATER HAS STOPPED WORKING BLOWING ONLY COLD AIR OUT OF THE VENTS, DOESN'T PROPERLY DEFROST WINDOWS, SO WHEN DRIVING ON COLD DAYS THE WINDOW FOGS UP CAUSING A HAZARD, VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE, ALMOST HIT SOME OTHER CARS BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF VISIBILITY.

AIR BLEND DOORS LOCATED DEEP INSIDE DASHBOARD HAVE FAILED ON MY CAR & THOUSANDS OF OTHERS. THIS CAUSES THE DRIVERS COMPARTMENT TO TYPICALLY FREEZE DURING WINTER MONTHS. EVEN THOUGH IT IS AN ADMITTED MANUFACTURING DEFECT, CHRYSLER WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS NOT DEEMED ENOUGH OF A SAFETY ISSUE. SINCE REPAIRS ARE $1K OR MORE, MANY PEOPLE ARE PUTTING OFF SERVICE OR TRYING HOMEMADE REMEDIES TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THUS GOING WITHOUT THE REPAIR OR TRYING TO DO IT YOURSELF YOU MAKE THE DRIVERS COMPARTMENT VERY UNSAFE. CHRYSLER IS MAKING A HUGE PROFIT OFF THIS REPAIR AND THEIR SERVICE CENTERS ADMIT THIS. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GC LIMITED, THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS ONLY BLOWS COLD AIR, MY MECHANIC HAD TOLD ME THIS IS A VERY COMMON AND EXPENSIVE PROBLEM, BUT THAT CHRYSLER MOTORS HAS NOT YET ISSUED ANY KIND OF RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE.

I AM A 20 YEAR OLD AND I DO NOT HAVE THE INCOME FOR THE PAYMENT , INSURANCE AND THE COSTLY REPAIR. *TR

EVENTS LEADING UP TO FAILURE: NORMAL USAGE OF VEHICLE CABIN COMFORT AND SAFETY CONTROLS (AIR CONDITIONING/DEMISTER) SYSTEMS. FAILURE: CABIN AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM NOW DOES NOT REGULATE TEMPERATURE. THE SYSTEM CANNOT BE MADE TO USE HOT OR COLD AIR ON DEMAND. IN INVESTIGATING THIS FAILURE, IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT 99% OF ALL OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE REPORT EXPERIENCING A FAILURE OF THE 'TEMPERATURE BLEND CONTROL DOORS' WITHIN THE 'A/C BLEND ASSEMBLY'. CONSEQUENCES: THE VEHICLE DEMISTER IS UNABLE TO CLEAR THE FRONT WINDSHIELD OF MIST/FOGGING (EFFECTIVELY, DEPENDING ON OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE). CORRECTIONS: NO CORRECTIONS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED DUE TO COST PROHIBITIVE EXPENSE TO DO SO. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS QUOTE A PRICE OF AROUND $1800.00 TO REPAIR THE FAILURE, WHILE OBTAINING PARTS AND PERFORMING SELF-REPAIR WILL COST UPWARDS OF $300.00 PLUS TIME SPENT. *TR

I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED. LATE WINTER, WHEN I NEEDED IT THE MOST, MY HEAT BEGAN NOT WORKING ONLY ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE PASSENGER SIDE HAD PLENTY OF HEAT THOUGH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND AFTER A $1100 REPAIR BILL TO REPAIR THE BLEND DOORS INSIDE THE AC SYSTEM (MOSTLY LABOR), IT WAS REPAIRED. TODAY, AGAIN, I HAVE NO HEAT AND NOW NO AC TOO. A DIAGNOSIS NOW SAYS THAT I HAVE A CODE FOR "TRAVEL TOO LARGE"-THIS IS THE CODE FOR THE BLEND DOORS AGAIN. AFTER AN INTERNET SEARCH, I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY, MANY OTHERS LIKE ME WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS IN THE WINTER, THERE IS NO WAY TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE COLD AIR. DAILMER CHRYSLER NEEDS TO DO THE RIGHT THING HERE AND STOP PROFITING FROM THEIR OWN DEFECTS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL TO REPAIR ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND. I REALIZED MY HEATER VENTS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WEREN'T WORKING AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS BEYOND THE 36,000 MILE WARRANTY.

ACCORDING TO THE CERTIFIED SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND ONLINE FORUMS, THIS HAS BECOME A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2000-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED WITH DUEL ZONE VENTILATION SYSTEMS.*AK

BLEND DOOR FAILURE. NO HEAT TO WINDOW DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER. UNABLE TO CLEAR WINDOW TO SEE OUT.

VISIBILITY: DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM:WINDSHIELD:BLOWER BLEND DOORS AND RECIRCULATION DOORS NO LONGER FUNCTION. TO MY KNOWLEDGE, THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND WILL AFFECT EVERY 1999-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE WITH AUTO CLIMATE CONTROL. THE DEALERSHIPS REQUEST A RIDICULOUSLY HIGH PRICE FOR REPAIRS. JEEP/CHRYSLER SHOULD STEP UP AND CORRECT THIS MALFUNCTION IN THEIR FAULTY PRODUCT. *JB

(1) UNKNOWN, NONE (2) BLEND DOOR FAILURE: UNABLE TO DEFROST, VISIBILITY OBSTRUCTED (3) HASN'T BEEN CORRECT YET. *JB

ON MARCH 7, 2007, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IN MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO SUDDENLY FAILED-GAS GAUGE, SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER, BATTERY LEVEL, TEMPERATURE GAUGE ETC ALL INOPERATIVE. ON MARCH 8, 2007 MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THIS EVENT WAS COVERED UNDER CHRYSLER RECALL 994. TODAY I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER WHO SAID THAT THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED IN 2002 AND SO THEY WERE UNABLE TO PERFORM THE RECALL AGAIN. HOWEVER, THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO MY CAR BEFORE AND I DID NOT REQUEST THAT RECALL BE PERFORMED IN 2002. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THEY NEED TO CHARGE ME $85.00 TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. HE ALREADY KNOWS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA HOW FAST I AM DRIVING! *JB

I BOUGHT A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED IN DECEMBER OF 06. MARCH 2ND I BROUGHT MY CAR TO A MECHANIC BECAUSE MY WINDOW WOULD SLOWLY GO DOWN, AND THEN WOULD NOT GO UP WITHOUT MY ASSISTANCE. WHEN THE MECHANIC LOOKED AT THE CAR, IT WAS MY WINDOW REGULATOR THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. I HAD IT FIXED FOR $328.00. *JB

TL*- THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING THE 2002 JEEP GRAND AT 45 MPH ON CLEAR ROAD CONDITIONS THE AIR CONDITIONER STARTED TO BLOW COLD AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHEN HE TURNED ON THE HEATER. ALSO CAUSED COLD AIR TO BLOW ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THE COLD AIR BLEW ONTO THE WINDSHIELD THAT CAUSED THE WINDSHIELD TO FREEZE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD ONCE IT FROZE. WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO TURN THE HEATER OFF IT CONTINUED TO BLOW COLD AIR AS LONG AS THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING INSPECTED BY THE DEALERSHIP. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAD 59000 MILES.*AK
