WAS SWERVING WILL DRIVING MY 2000 JEEP WRANGLER, FOUND OUT THE FRAME WAS ALMOST RUSTED THROUGH, BACK NEAR THE REAR TIRE. THE JEEP ONLY HAS 120,000 MILES ON IT. THEY ARE MAKING FRAME REPAIR KITS EVERY WHERE, CAUSE THIS IS SUCH A BIG PROBLEM. THERE ARE HOLES EVERY WHERE IN THE FRAME, BUT NO DRAIN HOLES IN THE BOTTOM.

MY HUSBAND AND I PURCHASED A USED 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO AND WE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS EVER SINCE! OUR MAIN PROBLEMS ARE WITH THE BRAKES, ROTORS, CALIPERS. THE LEFT TIRE GETS EXTREMELY HOT AND THERE IS A BURNING SMELL. WE JUST RECENTLY HAD NEW BRAKES PADS AND ROTORS PUT IN AND NOW ARE HAVING THEM LOOK AT THE CALIPERS. THIS IS OUR SECOND TIME TO THE SHOP. WE ARE ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM - IT WORKS OKAY, BUT IS MAKING THE ENGINE RUN SLUGGISH WHEN THE AIR IS ON. WE ARE ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE AUTO LOCKS - GRINDING NOISE - HAD TO TURN THE HORN OFF OR WOULDN'T WORK. IT'S JUST BEEN PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE MY JEEP FOR LONG DISTANCES WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT I GOT IT FOR! I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY - ABOUT THE BRAKES GOING OUT! *TR

DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL ON 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. BLEND DOOR FAILURE. *TR

Mileage: 135,000

THE TAIL LIGHT ON MY SUV 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HAS FAILED TWICE. I FIRST NOTICED THE FAILURE SHORTLY PRIOR TO A CAR ACCIDENT IN EARLY 2006. WHEN I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR PLACE FOR DAMAGES FROM THE ACCIDENT, I ALSO PAID OUT OF POCKET TO HAVE THE TAIL LIGHT ISSUE FIXED. THE BACK TAIL LIGHT,ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, WOULD EITHER BE FAINTLY LIT OR NOT LIGHT AT ALL WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CAR REPAIR SHOP RELAXED THE PART NEEDED, WHICH WAS AT THE STEERING WHEEL HEAD LIGHT SWITCH. IT WORKED FINE AFTER THE REPLACEMENT FOR ABOUT 7 MONTHS, BEFORE FAILING AGAIN, WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THAT BOTH OF THE REAR SEATBELTS FRAYED AWAY TWICE. DURING THE FIRST INCIDENT, THE MECHANIC ACCUSED THE CONTACT OF CUTTING THE SEAT BELTS. HOWEVER, THE SERVICE DEALER MANAGER WHO IS ALSO A FIREMAN CONFIRMED THAT THE CONTACT COULD NOT CUT THE SEAT BELT. FIREMEN HAVE TO USE SPECIAL SCISSORS TO CUT SEAT BELTS IN THEIR JOB FUNCTION. THE ORIGINAL SEATBELTS WERE REPLACED BY THE SERVICE DEALER AT NO COST AFTER CONTINUAL DEBATE. THE REAR SEATBELTS HAVE FRAYED AWAY AGAIN. THE SERVICE MANAGER ALERTED THE CONTACT THAT THE REPAIRS COULD ONLY BE PERFORMED IF APPROVAL WAS GAINED FROM CHRYSLER BUT CHRYSLER DECLINED. BOTH DEALER AND MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO REPAIR THE SEAT BELT WITHOUT COST. THE VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE SEATBELTS.

Mileage: 68,000

VEHICLE PURCHASED ON 3/26/00. CURRENTLY MILEAGE UNDER 30,000 MILES. BEEN EXPERIENCING FAILURE WITH ROTOR SINCE THE FIRST YEAR OF PURCHASE OF THE NEW VEHICLE WHICH VIBRATED VIOLENTLY WHEN STEPPING ON BRAKES OVER 20 MILES PER HOUR. BELOW ARE THE DATES REQUIRING SERVICE AND/OR REPLACEMENT OF ROTOR. 2/29/2000, 5/31/2001, 0/24/2001, 06/06/2002, 05/07/2003, 1/24/2003, 5/17/2004 04/04/2005. ACCORDING TO THE NHSTA DATA BASE, THERE ARE 217 COMPLAINTS ON THE ROTOR POSSIBLE DEFECT ON THIS MODEL. ITS NOT REASONABLE FOR A CONSUMER PURCHASING A NEW VEHICLE TO EXPECT REPLACEMENT OF ROTORS ONE AND SOMETIMES TWICE A YEAR. HAVE CONTACTED REGIONAL DIVISION OF CHRYSLER IN THE PAST YEARS, AND HAVE GOTTEN SERVICED. THIS YEAR, WITH THE NEW DIVISION MANAGER THOMAS SMITH, HE STATES THAT HE HAS NOT BEEN AWARE OF THE ANY PAST COMPLAINTS OF THE ROTOR AND THAT IT IS A USER ERROR. IN ADDITION, HE REFUSES TO PROVIDE AN E-MAIL OR MAILING ADDRESS TO DOCUMENT THE INCIDENT. TREMENDOUSLY CONCERNED FOR

THIS IS MY 5TH JEEP, 1ST GRAND CHEROKEE. I RESEARCHED THIS VEHICLE FOR 2 MONTHS BEFORE BUYING. AFTER PURCHASING I NOTICED THE WHINE COMING FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. I TOOK IT TO AN OIL AND LUBE STORE WHERE THEY EXPLAINED I WAS LUCKY TO HAVE THE SELECT TRAC 4X4 SYSTEM AS THE DIFFERENTIAL OIL IS EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE FOR THE QUADRA DRIVE SYSTEM. AFTER REPLACING THE LUBE IN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL THE WHINE WENT AWAY. *NM
