1998 JEEP CHEROKEE Complaints

ROTORS BECAME WARPED AT 19380 MILES AND 34087 MILES AND HAD TO BE TURNED DUE TO FLAT SPOTS ON THEM. THE ORIGINAL DISC PADS ARE STILL INUSE AND THERE WAS NO EXCESSIVE SLAMMING OF THE BRAKES OR SUDDEN STOPS INVOLVED. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT THIS IS DUE TO THE THINNESS OF THE BACKING ON THE ROTOR HUB, A PROBLEM SIMILIAR TO THAT FOUND ON CERTIAN FORDS IN THE PAST. PROBLEM SHOULD BE CORRECTED AND OWNERS REIMBURSED FOR EXPENSES ALREADY INCURRED.*AK

SWERVED VEHICLE TO PREVENT HITTING A CHILD AND CAUSED LOSS OF CONTROL WHICH RESULTED IN A FRONTAL COLLISION WITH A CONCRETE CULVERT DRAINAGE. VEHICLE WAS AIR BORN AND FELL ON OTHER SIDE, AND ROLLED OVER ON ALL FOUR SIDES, HITTING ANOTHER CONCRETE CULVERT DRAINAGE. UPON IMPACT, BOTH AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DEALER / MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED AT THIS TIME. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE US WITH ANY FURTHER DETAILS ON THIS MATTER . *AK

I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH MY GAS GAUGE GIVING ERRADIC READINGS. AT TIMES IT HAS READ THAT I AM OUT OF GAS WHEN I HAD A FULL TANK. IF I TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT THE PROBLEM IS USUALLY RESOLVED. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED BEFORE I END UP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH NO GAS. I ALSO HAVE A SOUND COMING OUT OF THE AIR CONDITIONER THAT SOUNDS LIKE A GURGLING OR BUBBLING SOUND. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM OR A NORMAL SOUND.*AK

ROTORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE AND TURNED ONCE. ALL HAS HAPPEND IN LAST . THE MOST THE FRONT ROTORS HAVE LASTED IS 14,OOO MILES.

FRONT BRAKES ARE WARPED WHICH CAUSES EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS.*AK

VEHICLE WILL ONLY RUN PROPERLY ON PREMIUM UNLEADED GAS, OTHERWISE POOR PERFORMANCE. *SLC

FUEL GUAGE READS THAT TANK HAS A QUARTER OF GAS WHEN IT WAS ON EMPTY. THIS CAUSED CONSUMER TO RUN OUT OF GAS WITHOUT NOTICE. DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED.*AK

CONSUMER RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE FOR BRAKE ROTORS. DEALERSHIP REPAIRED VEHICLE IN ACCORDANCE WITH NOTICE. HOWEVER, NEW ROTORS THAT REPLACED DEFECTIVE ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL NFORMATION/ATTACHMENTS.*AK

THE SPEEDOMETER, FUEL GAUGE, TACHOMETER, AND OTHER PARTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BECOME INOPERATIVE WHILE DRIVING. NLM

I HAVE HAD SOOOOOO MANY FACTORY REPAIRS ON THIS JEEP CHEROKKE!!!! NOW THAT THE WARRANTY HAS RUN OUT (WITHIN 10 DAYS) THE ELECTRIC WINDOW WON'T WORK....IT'S ALL ONE UNIT AND SO THE MOTOR AND ALL THE CONTROLLING DEVICES HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THEY HAVE A PLASTIC COMPONMENT AROUND THE WHOLE UNIT..AND IT BREAKS AND SO THE WHOLE UNIT MUST BE REPLACED. WHY PUT A PIECE OF PLASTIC OVER IT, UNLESS YOU HOPED/PLANNED IT WOULD BREAK??????*AK
