1998 JEEP CHEROKEE Complaints

DEFROSTER DOES NOT WORK. ANTWERPEN DEALER SAID SOMETHING WAS DROPPED IN THERE AND THEY HAD TO CHARGE 600 TO REPLACE IT. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT THE CABLE WAS DEFECTIVE AND JEEP NO LONGER MADE IT AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SYSTEM. SINCE THEY MADE A DEFECTIVE PART AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THEY SHOULD FIX IT FOR FREE.
