1999 JEEP CHEROKEE Complaints

TRANSFER CASE FAILED, CAUSING VEHICLE TO STALL WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE CHECKED BY DEALER, WHO REPLACED FRONT DIFFERENTIAL BEARINGS, AND O-RINGS IN FUEL PUMP. ALSO, VEHICLE MAKES LOUD "ROARING" NOISES, AND IS VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WHILE DRIVING. *AK

THE DESIGN OF THE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR MOTOR ASSEMBLY APPEARS TO BE FLAWED. THERE IS A SMALL PLASTIC "CLIP" THAT IS HEAT MELTED TO THE NYLON MOVEMENT ASSEMBLY DURING MANUFACTURING. THIS CLIP RECEIVES A GREAT DEAL OF STRESS DURING WINDOW OPERATION AND IS DOOMED TO FAIL FROM THE BEGINNING. WHEN THE CLIP FAILS, THE WINDOW WILL "UNEXPECTANTLY" DROP INTO THE DOOR OFTEN RESULTING IN BROKEN OR DAMAGED GLASS. THIS COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT IF A DRIVER IS NOT PREPARED FOR THIS FAILURE.*AK

WHILE DRIVING AT 65MPH, THE BRAKES BEGAN TO GRIND, AND THE WHEEL BEARING ON BOTH SIDES WERE MAKING NOISE. *AK THE CONSUMER STATES THAT BOTH FRONT HUB BEARINGS AND AXLE SEALS WERE REPLACED AT THE DEALER. THE ROTORS WERE COMPLETELY DESTROYED WITH THE FACTORY PADS INTACT. THE PAD WERE STILL GOOD. THE ROTORS HOWEVER WERE SO THIN THAT THEY CRUMBLED(VERY DANGEROUS). NOW THE REAR HUBS ARE LOUD AN NEED REPLACING.
