I HAD THE REQUIRED "TOW HITCH" INSTALLED AT DEALER AS PART OF RECALL. RECEIVED WRITTEN NOTICE AT TIME OF PICKUP OF VEHICLE STATING "DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TOW WITH THIS CAMPAIGN-INSTALLED TRAILER HITCH ASSEMBLY. YOUR VEHICLE WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A CHRYSLER OEM TRAILER TOW PACKAGE AND THIS CAMPAIGN TRAILER-HITCH ASSEMBLY DOES NOT INCLUDE THE NECESSARY WIRING HARNESS AND/OR OTHER HEAVY-DUTY COMPONENTS REQUIRED FOR TOWING." I CONTACTED THE DEALER TO INQUIRE COST OF THE WIRING HARNESS AND OTHER NEEDED PARTS FOR TOWING AND WAS TOLD THAT IS NOT THE REASON THAT I COULD NOT TOW WITH THIS HITCH. I WAS TOLD THAT I SHOULD NOT TOW WITH THIS HITCH DUE TO THE GAUGE OF THE METAL USED IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH. IS THIS CORRECT? IF THIS HITCH IS UNABLE TO BE USED FOR TOWING I WOULD LIKE SOME DIRECTION FROM THE MANUFACTURER ADVISING THAT TOWING WITH THIS HITCH IS PROHIBITED. I HAVE ALSO SEEN THROUGH RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON STATEMENT BEING MADE BY DEALERSHIPS. *TR

AFTER A SAFETY RECALL ON A 1998 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FOR POSSIBLE FUEL LEAK AND IGNITION SOURCE, THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THE DEALER. THE REMEDY WAS TO INSTALL A NEW OEM TRAILER HITCH. AN AFTERMARKET TRAILER HITCH WAS INSTALLED BY ME ROUGHLY 15 YEARS AGO. THE INSPECTION SAID THE EXISTING HITCH PASSED AND WAS OK, THEREFORE THE DEALER DID NOTHING. MY CONTENTION IS THAT THE EXISTING HITCH IN SERVICE FOR 15 YEARS IS NOT ADEQUATE. CORROSION HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL AND HALF OF THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY IS GONE, THEREFORE IT DOES NOT OFFER ADEQUATE PROTECTION TO THE TANK MAKING THIS VEHICLE UNSAFE. IT IS EVIDENT AFTER WAITING YEARS TO GET THIS REMEDIED BY CHRYSLER THAT THEY ARE WAITING FOR THESE OLDER MODEL JEEPS TO DISAPPEAR TO THE RECYCLE YARD AND THEREFORE WILL NOT RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. *TR

ALL OF MY DASH GAUGES GO OUT AT ANY GIVEN TIME. THERE WILL BE A BEEP AND THEN THE SPEEDOMETER AND ALL THE REST DO NOT REGISTER. THE CK ENGINE LIGHT WILL BE ON AND THE FUEL LIGHT. THE POWER WINDOWS WILL NOT GO DOWN, THE AC WILL NOT WORK, RADIO, AND NOW HEAD LIGHTS ARE BEING AFFECTED AND NEARLY CAUSED ME TO CRASH. I HAVE BEEN TERRIFIED !! I WORKED AND SAVED TO GET A NEW IGNITION SWITCH INSTALLED HOPING SINCE IT POWERS SO MANY PLACES AT ONCE THAT IT WOULD WORK, BUT AFTER $174.40 AND A WEEK WITHOUT TRANSPORTATION I PICKED MY CAR UP TODAY AND AFTER DRIVING IT ABOUT 15 MILES IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING. NOW I AM READING THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND FINDING YOUR SITE GIVES ME HOPE THAT MAYBE I WILL GET SOME MUCH NEEDED HELP. THANKS FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE TO ME IT IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. *TR

I WENT IN TO HAVE THE RECALL OF MY 1998 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DONE THIS MORNING (SAFETY RECALL N45/NHTSA 13V-252 REAR STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT), AND THE JEEP DEALER REFUSED TO INSTALL THE TRAILER HITCH PER THE RECALL SPECIFICATIONS. THEY SAID THAT IT LOOKED FINE AND PUT A STICKER ON IT AFTER MAKING ME WAIT FOR 2 HOURS. THIS, EVEN THOUGH THE AFTERMARKET HITCH THAT IS INSTALLED ON MINE IS SO CORRODED THAT THE BALL AND ATTACHMENT POINT CANNOT BE REMOVED. WHEN I REMINDED THE DEALER OF THE FACTS, AND THAT HAVING THE HITCH STICKING OUT THAT FAR FROM THE BACK EXACERBATES THE HAZARD THAT EXISTS, HE ACTUALLY SAID "THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM". SO IT APPEARS THAT ALL OF THESE DELAYS HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN CHRYSLER ACTING IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS INTERNAL PLAN TO CERTIFY ALL INSTALLED TRAILER HITCHES AND NOT INSTALL NEW ONES. AND IN CASES LIKE MINE WHERE THE RISK IS EXACERBATED BY RUSTY SHARP HITCH COMPONENTS THAT MIGHT ACT AS A SPEAR TO PUNCTURE THE TANK, DEALERS COULD CARE LESS. WHEN I OBTAINED A COPY OF THE ACTUAL RECALL DOCUMENT I FOUND THAT CHRYSLER HAS CAREFULLY CRAFTED A DISINCENTIVE FOR DEALERS TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN SAY THAT ANY HITCH INSTALLED MEETS THE STANDARD. THEY GET PAID .4 HOURS FOR INSPECTING, BUT ONLY 1 HOUR FOR REMOVING A RUSTY HITCH AND INSTALLING A COMPLETELY NEW ONE, WHICH WOULD LIKELY TAKE TWO HOURS. THE MANAGER OF THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE LOSING MONEY ON EVERY HITCH THEY INSTALL AND THEY HAVE NO INTENTION OF MAKING HITCH WIRING WORK ON ANY OF THOSE INSTALLED. THE

DAUGHTER HAS DRIVEN VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES AND CAR HAS CONSTANTLY TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY AND NEIGHBORHOOD STREETS. AFTER MULTIPLE TIMES, THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED INTO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP ON JUNE 7TH WITH CONCERNS THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STALLING AND ENGINE TURNING OFF. UPON THE INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE ON JUNE 11TH YOUR SERVICE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED ITS BRAKES & ROTORS REPLACED IN ADDITION TO THE VEHICLE NEEDING A NEW ENGINE COIL TO REPAIR THE CONSTANT PROBLEM OF THE VEHICLE CUTTING OFF. PAID FOR THE IGNITION COIL REPAIR, VEHICLE STILL TURNED OFF. PAID FOR NEW FUEL PUMP VEHICLE STILL TURNED OFF. NOT DEALERSHIP IS PROCLAIMING PCM BOARD NEEDS O BE REPLACED. I HOPE THAT JEEP CONSIDERS THE DANGER THAT MY CHILD WAS PLACE BECAUSE OF ENGINE FAILURE FOR MY 97 CHEROKEE. *TR

I WAS HEADED OUT OF WORK , DROVE ABOUT 1/2 MILE .SUDDENLY THE JEEP STARTED ACCELERATING .I PRESSED THE BRAKES, AND IT SEEMED LIKE I WAS STEPPING ON THE GAS .
