TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 30 AND 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ALMOST CRASHED AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE AND LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE PULLING OFF TO THE SHOULDER. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART IMMEDIATELY MOST TIMES, BUT WOULD START APPROXIMATELY THREE TO FOUR MINUTES LATER. THE DEALER COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000. UPDATED 11/17/08 *CN THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE PROBLEM WAS ELECTRICAL. UPDATED 11/24/08. *JB

AIRBAG LIGHT AND CHIME CONTINUOUSLY AND RANDOMLY ARE DISPLAYED WHILE DRIVING...DEALER INDICATES THE SOLUTION IS "PROBABLY" A DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING. *TR

NO INCIDENT. FAULTY PARTS THAT EVERY OWNER WILL HAVE TO REPAIR AT SOME TIME. THE HVAC SYSTEM BLEND DOORS FAIL BLOWING ONLY COLD AIR. ALL OWNER WILL OR HAD THIS PROBLEM. REPAIR COST FOR MINE WAS $850.00. THIS REPAIR MAY HAVE TO BE REPEATED AT LATER DATES. *TR

THE HEATING, AIR CONDITIONING AND DEFROST VENTILATION SYSTEM HAS A SYSTEMATIC PROGRESSIVE FAILURE. THE BLEND DOORS STARTED TO FAIL INTERFERING WITH THE AC AND DEFROST AND HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. NOW I HAVE TOTAL FAILURE AND ELECTRICAL SHORT THAT INTERFERES WITH THE SPEEDOMETER AND IT WAS DIFFICULT TO START AND IDLE, I'M LUCKY TO HAVE GOTTEN HOME. *TR

HEATER BLEND DOOR FAILURE HEATER CORE FAILURE A/C EVAP FAILURE. *TR

THE SOLENOID CONTINUES TO GO OUT, THREATENING DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION. IT HAS WENT OUT TWICE WITHIN A YEAR OF REPLACEMENT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO COME TO A STOP, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT BRACKET HAD DETACHED FROM THE BASE OF THE SEAT. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT WAS GRADUALLY BECOMING LOOSE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 149,067.

MY AIR CONDITION AND HEATER DO NOT BLOW AIR INTO THE CABIN. CHRYSLER TELLS ME THAT IT IS THE BLEND DOORS. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE ESTIMATE FOR REPAIRS IS $2,200. IF IT WAS SOMETHING I DID TO THE VEHICLE I COULD UNDERSTAND BUT I NOW HAVE A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED WITH ALL THE BELLS AND WHISTLES AND AIR OR HEAT. *TR

MY 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED'S HEATER CONTROL UNIT HAS BECOME FAULTY. THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK ON ANY SETTING, AND OUTSIDE COLD AIR COMES INTO THE CABIN WITH ZERO CONTROL. THIS IS MAKING VISIBILITY VERY POOR DUE TO LACK OF DEFROSTING THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS DUE TO A POOR "DESIGN" FROM THE FACTORY. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS GOING TO COST $1,766.00 PLUS TAX TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM SEEING IT BECOMES A SAFETY RISK DUE TO POOR VISIBILITY. *TR

I HAVE A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE AIR BAG SENSOR. WHILE DRIVING THE LIGHT AND CHIME GO OFF RANDOMLY AND CONSTANTLY. AFTER RESEARCHING IT ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT MANY MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE ARE HAVING THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM - SEE HTTP://WWW.TOPIX.COM/FORUM/AUTOS/JEEP-GRAND-CHEROKEE/T92EK7LI3QQU98ECO. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, IT IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECTIVE PART ACROSS MANY VEHICLES AND YET THE MANUFACTURER IS PUTTING THE $300+ COST TO FIX IT ON THE OWNERS.*TR

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HER 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DOWN A TWISTY ROAD AT 40 MPH, THE CAR SUDDENLY BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. SHE APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP OR SLOW DOWN. SHE TRIED TO PULL UP ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE PEDAL WOULD NOT RELEASE. SHE THEN TURNED THE CAR OFF AND MANAGED TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENED ONE WEEK AFTER WE HAD IT AT THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE CRANK SHAFT AND CAM SHAFT POSITION SENSORS BECAUSE THE CAR TURNED OFF ON ITS OWN WHEN SHE WAS DRIVING IT. WE CAN NO LONGER LET HER DRIVE THE VEHICLE AS IT IS UNSAFE FOR HER OR ANYONE ON THE ROAD. *TR

BLEND DOORS ON MY 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FAILED, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE IN MOST WEATHER (INSTANT FOGGED WINDSHIELD W/NO WAY TO DEFOG) AND BLOWING COLD AIR INSTEAD OF HOT. THIS COST OVER $1000 TO FIX, AS REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF THE DOORS IS VERY TIME-CONSUMING (WHOLE DASH MUST BE REMOVED). *TR

BLEND DOOR FAILURE IN MY JEEP. BLOWS COLD AIR ALL THE TIME. *TR

THERE IS NO HEAT FROM MY PASSENGER SIDE IN MY 1999 JEEP CHEROKEE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IT IS THE BLEND DOOR VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX OVER $1200.00. I CALLED JEEP AND THEY KNOW THAT THERE ARE PROBLEMS BUT SAID THEY HAVE NOT BEEN TOLD TO RECALL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THE WINDOW FOGS UP AND YOU CAN NOT SEE WHILE DRIVING! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 5-10 MPH, THE DRIVER'S SIDE POWER SEAT HAS MOVABLE METAL THAT CONNECTS AND BROKE ON HIS VEHICLE. THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT DID NOT HAVE ANY CONNECTION TO THE ACTUAL VEHICLE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ENTIRE SEAT TRACK WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT AN ESTIMATED COST OF $550. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 155,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE IS 174,000.

I RAN INTO WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A SIMPLE HEATING PROBLEM WITH MY 1999 GRAND CHEROKEE. ONE DAY WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, MY CAR SIMPLY STOPPED BLOWING HOT AIR. AFTER GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SPENDING NEARLY $600 TO HAVE SOME SORT OF SOLENOID REPLACED, I REALIZE AFTER PULLING OUT OF THE LOT THAT ONLY MY PASSENGER SIDE WILL BLOW HOT AIR. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP BACK, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BLEND DOORS, AND WILL LIKELY COST BETWEEN $1,000 AND $1,500 TO FIX. THE REPAIR REQUIRES A COMPLETE DISASSEMBLY OF THE DASH AND STEERING COLUMN (AROUND 10-12 HOURS FOR A FULL REPAIR, ACCORDING TO THE SHOP). I BEGAN TO LOOK AROUND ONLINE TO SEE WHAT ELSE COULD BE DONE. TO MY SURPRISE, NEARLY EVERY JEEP MESSAGE BOARD WAS FLOODED WITH POSTS ABOUT THIS EXACT PROBLEM. THE ENGINEERING OF THE PART VIRTUALLY ENSURES THAT IT WILL FAIL; THE CALIBRATION PHASE (EVERY 20 OR SO START-UPS) FORCES THE PLASTIC PART TO ITS LIMITS AND EVENTUALLY BREAKS. EVERY DEALERSHIP OR AUTO REPAIR SHOP THAT I CONTACTED SAID THAT VIRTUALLY EVERY 1999 AND NEWER GRAND CHEROKEE HAS, OR WILL HAVE, THIS PROBLEM. THE ISSUE ISN'T PAYING FOR CAR REPAIR; EVERY CAR HAS PROBLEMS THAT WE AS CONSUMERS WILL NEED PAY TO GET FIXED. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE ENGINEERING OF THIS PART CAUSES IT TO FAIL, AND NOW I'M STUCK NOT BEING ABLE TO DEFROST MY WINDSHIELD IN THE WINTER, OR NOW IN SPRINGTIME WHEN IT RAINS. THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT THIS HAS ALREADY, OR WILL CAUSE IN THE FUTURE, ACCIDENTS FROM PEOPLE NOT BEI

DEFECTIVE DESIGN OF TAIL AND BRAKE LIGHTS. FAILURE OF WELD TO MAKE CONTACT SO THAT THE TAIL AND BRAKE LIGHTS WORKED. THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS AGO. NUMEROUS REPAIRS WERE MADE BY AUTO MECHANICS, HOWEVER, THEY WOULDN'T LAST. HAD BOTH TAIL/BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLIES REPLACED AT MY COST OF $243.96 JUST FOR THE PARTS. THE DEALER WHERE THE PARTS WERE PURCHASED SAID THAT THEY WERE NOT EVEN MAKING THOSE PARTS FOR MY YEAR VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY WERE DEFECTIVE, AND "JUNK" SO I HAD TO PURCHASE LATER MODEL YEAR PARTS. I CURRENTLY HAVE THE OLD PARTS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. *TR

THE AIR BAG FAULT INDICATOR KEEPS CHIMING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY AND WAS FOLLOWED BY A BEEPING SOUND. WHEN THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED CONCERNING NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 00V105000 (AIR BAGS), THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT HIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 111,757 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 111,257. UPDATED 07/15/08 *BF THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. UPDATED 07/15/08

THE HEATING / COOLING SYSTEM IN MY 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED STOPPED WORKING. NOW IT CURRENTLY ONLY BLOWS HOT AIR FROM ONE VENT (DRIVER'S SIDE, MID-LEVEL). EVERY OTHER VENT IN THE VEHICLE BLOWS ONLY COLD AIR. THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK WHATSOEVER. NEITHER OF THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL SWITCHES WORK (FOR PASSENGER / DRIVER SIDE). I HAVE READ ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE QUITE A PROBLEM FOR THIS MODEL JEEP. I HAVE GOTTEN QUOTES TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM AND IT WILL COST OVER $1000. I HAVE DONE NOTHING SINCE IT IS QUITE EXPENSIVE AND WILL LEAVE ME WITHOUT MY VEHICLE FOR SOME TIME. THE HEATING / COOLING SYSTEM NEVER WORKS AT ALL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. THERE WERE NO LIGHTS AND NO POWER STEERING WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH. THE CONTACT HAD TO WAIT 2-3 MINUTES BEFORE THE VEHICLE WOULD RESTART. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER A FEW TIMES AND THEY STATED THAT THE CRANK SENSOR WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER REMOVED AND REPLACED ALL THE CODES; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE TIMES AFTERWARDS. SHE RETURNED TO THE DEALER IN APRIL OF 2008 AND WAS INFORMED THEY WOULDHAVE TO RUN MORE TESTS. THE CONTACT THEN TRADED IN THE VEHICLE FOR A NEWER MODEL. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 83,074 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 81,808. UPDATED 07/15/08. *LJ THERE WAS A NOISE COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEN THE CONSUMER MADE LEFT TURNS. THE HATCH SHOCKS WERE REPLACED

MY 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HAS THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON THE INTERNET AND HAVE FOUND MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE JEEP IN GENERAL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT HAD TO QUICKLY PULL THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID A CRASH. WHILE HIS DAUGHTER WAS TRAVELING UP AN ON-RAMP, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND WAS UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED. BY THE TIME THE CONTACT ARRIVED TO ASSIST, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE FUEL FILTER HIMSELF BEFORE CALLING THE DEALER TO INQUIRE ABOUT NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 08V203000 (POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM, PCM)). THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE INTERMITTENTLY. HE ALSO HEARD A CHIMING SOUND COMING FROM THE AIR BAG AREA.

REAR PASSENGER DOOR, LOCK MALFUNCTION. DOOR DOES NOT LOCK WITH AUTO LOCK BUTTON. THIS ALLOWED MY CAR TO BE BROKE INTO. *TR

BRAKE LIGHT AND REAR TURN LIGHT KEEP GOING OUT MOST OF THE TIME I HAVE TO JUST REMOVE THE LIGHT BULB AND PUT IT BACK IN TO CLEAR PROBLEM. I HAVE TWO JEEPS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM ALONG WITH MY DAUGHTER WHICH ALSO HAS A JEEP THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY REPLACED THE LIGHT ASSEMBLE TO CORRECT IT. *TR

I AND NUMEROUS OTHERS IT SEEMS (SEE HTTP://WWW.TOPIX.COM/FORUM/AUTOS/JEEP-GRAND-CHEROKEE/T92EK7LI3QQU98ECO ) OWN JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES WITH COMPARABLE MILEAGE AT OVER 100,000 (MY VEHICLE IS AT 134,000 MILES), WHICH ARE EXPERIENCING A MECHANICAL PROBLEM INVOLVING THE AIRBAG LIGHT WHICH COMES ON CONSTANTLY WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING IN CONJUNCTION WITH A "CHIME" SOUND. WITH THE WIDESPREAD OCCURRENCE OF THIS PROBLEM, MANY OF US ARE WONDERING WHY CHRYSLER HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL. ALSO OF CONCERN IS WHETHER OR NOT THE AIRBAG COULD POSSIBLY DEPLOY UNEXPECTEDLY OR FAIL TO DEPLOY AS A RESULT OF WHATEVER PROBLEM IS CAUSING THE LIGHT TO COME ON (MANY HAVE REPORTED THAT IT TURNED OUT TO BE THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING). COULD YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER OR AT LEAST TELL ME WHAT OTHER ACTION I MIGHT TAKE TO FORCE THE MANUFACTURER TO INITIATE A RECALL. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP IN THIS MATTER.

VEHICLE: 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO 2 WHEEL DRIVE 4.0 6CYC AUTOMATIC THERE IS A CHRONIC PROBLEM WITH THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE. THE ISSUE IS WITH THE LIGHT BULB CARRIER AND NOT THE WIRING. THE LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT MULTIPLE TIMES AND REQUIRE EITHER THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BULB CARRIER OR "PLAYING" WITH THE BULB UNTIL IT IS IN A POSITION THAT MAKES GOOD ELECTRICAL CONTACT. I HAVE NOTICED ALMOST EVERY SIMILAR JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON THE ROAD HAS AT LEAST ONE REAR TAIL LIGHT OUT ! HOW MANY ACCIDENTS HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THIS PROBLEM? *TR

I BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY HEATING/COOLING IN SPRING 2007. THE A/C WASN'T COLD AND RECHARGING IT ONLY HELPED FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY REPLACED SOMETHING TO KEEP THE AIR COLD. THEN THE FAN STOPPED BLOWING. THE SAME SHOP TOOK IT IN AND GOT THE FANS BLOWING. WINTER 2007 THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAT STOPPED WORKING AND BLEW ICE COLD AIR INSTEAD. THE DRIVER'S SIDE BLOWS HOT AIR. THE SHOP SAID THE BLEND DOOR MOTOR WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE PASSENGER SIDE BLEND DOOR MOTOR REPLACEMENT WOULD REQUIRE REMOVAL OF THE DASH FOR ACCESS. WINTER 2008, AFTER RECENT REPLACEMENT OF THE FAN, I AM NOW DRIVING WITH NO PRESSURE COMING FROM THE VENTS AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR TRICKLING COLD AIR. I'M VERY TIRED OF PAYING FOR THIS. *CN

MY MECHANIC FIXED THE BLOWER BECAUSE IT WAS EASILY ACCESSIBLE AND CHARGED ME $200 TO FIX IT BUT NOT THE HEATER BECAUSE HE EXPLAINED HE WILL HAVE TO REMOVE THE WHOLE FRONT DASH AND WILL COST A LABOR A ABOUT $500. I CONTACTED THE JEEP DEALERSHIP WHO EXPLAINED THAT SERVICES WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE. I KNOW A LOT OF JEEP OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THESE SAME PROBLEMS. I AM AFRAID CHRYSLER DID NOT EQUIPPED THE VEHICLES WITH HIGH QUALITY BLOWERS AND OR HEATERS. A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE FROM THE MANUFACTURER IS NEEDED! *TR

99 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HVAC SYSTEM FAILURE. BLEND DOORS ALLOW AC TO BE ON WHEN THE HEAT IS ON ALLOWING THE WINDSHIELD TO FREEZE/FOG IN THE WINTER AND FALL.
