CRACK CYLINDER HEAD .WHEN DRIVING START TO OVERHEAT.WHEN CHECK ON IT I FOUND THE PROBLEM AND I RESEARCHED AND FOUND THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CYLINDER HEAD FOR JEEP YEARS 2000,2001,2002.THEY SAY THOSE YEARS THE IRON ORE WAS VERY EXPENSIVE ON THE WORLD MARKET.

TAKATA RECALL I OWN A 2000 JEEP CHEROKEE INLINE 6 AND SINCE I GOT IT IT HAS HAD A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE HEAD AND BLOWING THE GASKETS I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY RECALLS AND THERE WASN'T ANY. THE LADY THAT WAS WORKING ASKED ME WHAT WAS GOING ON AND I TOLD HER AND SHE SAID THAT MY YEAR JEEP SHOULD'VE HAD A RECALL FOR IT BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS REALLY THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE WITH MY JEEP AND EVERYONE I TALK TO THAT HAS A JEEP LIKE MINE AND THE SAME YEAR HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS WILL BE THE SECOND HEAD GASKETS IN 4 YEARS I WILL BE PUTTING ON NEW HEAD GASKETS. I CAN'T AFFORD A NEW HEAD FOR IT AND I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE HEADS WERE BAD ON MY YEAR OF JEEP. IT ALSO CAME WITH DEXRON ANTIFREEZE THAT AFTER A WHILE GOOKS UP IN THE RADIATOR AND LOOKS LIKE MUD

MONROE SHOCK ABSORBER, MODEL 550017; UNIT CODE P154H1 AFTER TWO YEARS OF LIGHT SERVICE IN CALIFORNIA THE UNIT WAS REMOVED TO INSTALL A LOAD SUPPORTING MODEL 58914. UNIT 550017 WAS FUNCTIONING WELL WITH NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF DAMAGE / MALFUNCTION. THIS SHOCK ABSORBER EXPLODED UPON REMOVAL FROM THE LOWER MOUNT.. THE LOWER SECTION WAS DRIVEN TO THE FLOOR BEING PROPELLED BY COMPRESSED GAS AND OIL. THE UPPER SECTION FELL HARMLESSLY TO FLOOR. THERE ARE NO INJURIES OR DAMAGES ASSOCIATED BUT THAT IS A MATTER OF FORTUNE, NOT DESIGN. THE RETENTION MECHANISM HAS NO SAFETY DESIGN FEATURE TO PREVENT THIS. THIS SHOULD NOT BE THE CASE WITH GAS CHARGED SHOCKS. INFORMATION SUPPLIED WITH THE UNITS MAKE NO MENTION OF THIS POSSIBLE FAILURE.

I LOVE MY JEEP. HOWEVER, I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM MANY OWNERS OF THE 2000 CHEROKEE WITH THE 4.0 HAVE. I HAVE A CRACKED CYLINDER HEAD. NO OIL IN COOLANT, OR VICE VERSA, BUIT JEEP IS PARKED AND WILL NOT MOVE UNTIL IT IS EITHER SOLD OR SCRAPPED. BODY IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND EVERYTHING WORKS ON THE JEEP. I HAVE ROD KNOCK ON START UP, AND AS THE ENGINE WARMS, OIL PRESSURE DROPS TO ZERO. REVVING ENGINE TO 2000 RPM RAISES OIL PRESSURE. THE JEEP HAS 181,000 MILES. I HAVE HEARD FROM MANY PEOPLE THAT THE CYLINDER HEAD CRACKING IS VERY COMMON IN JEEPS FOR 2 MODEL YEARS, YET JEEP HAS GOTTEN AWAY WITH A RECALL SOMEHOW. I AM NOT HAPPY. I BOUGHT THE JEEP USED AND ONLY DROVE IT A MONTH BEFORE THE KNOCKING STARTED. THE LADY I BOUGHT IT FROM DID OIL CHANGES EVERY 2 MONTHS, AND TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE WHEN EVER SOMETHING WENT WRONG

I BELIEVER THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH MY JEEP CHEROKEE SPORT 2000 4.0L V6 HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE COME A THREAT IF SUCH WIRES SHOULD CREATE A FIRE OF SOME SORT... FOR YEARS THE ONLY WAY TO OPERATE THE WINDOWS ON THE VEHICLE IS BY DRIVERS SIDE CONTROLS, THE PASSENGER CANNOT OPERATE THE WINDOW WITH THEIR CONTROL. STRANGE THING, IS IF ON THE DIVERS SIDE YOU HIT THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK SWITCH BACK AND FOURTH THE PASSENGER CAN GAIN CONTROL OF THE WINDOW OPERATION IE UP/DOWN, ONLY ON A TEMPORARY BASIS. THE TIME FRAME OF PASSENGER OPERATION IS VERY SHORT... THE OTHER ISSUE IS THE DOOR LOCKS, THE LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF WHEN USING THE FOB TO LOCK AND UNLOCK, AND SOMETIMES THE LOCKS WORK AND YOU HEAR THE CLICK OF THEM LOCKING. OTHER TIMES THE LIGHTS WILL FLASH BUT THE DOOR LOCKS WILL NOT OPERATE AT ALL, AND IF YOUR SITTING IN THE JEEP AND HIT THE LOCKS YOU CAN HEAR A CLICK BUT NOT IN THE DOORS BUT IN THE HEADLINER JUST ABOUT WHERE THE DOME LIGHT IS... I FEEL ALL OF THE
