2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE - CLIMATE CONTROL BLEND DOOR FAILURE. THE PASSENGER SIDE TEMPERATURE BLEND DOOR FAILED AT 53K MILES. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH ALL JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES. THE FAILURE WAS REPAIRED UNDER A SELF PURCHASED (I.E NON-CHRYSLER) WARRANTY WITH A $250 DEDUCTIBLE. THE WARRANTY COMPANY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE DRIVERS SIDE BEND DOOR, THUS THIS REPAIR WILL MOST LIKELY NEED TO BE PERFORMED AGAIN. *NM

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL DOES NOT BLOW AIR AT THE SAME VELOCITY FROM ALL VENTS. SOME VENTS GET LOTS OF AIR, SOME BARELY BLOW AIR AT ALL. IN ADDITION, I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM ADDRESSED TWICE, AND STILL GET HOT AIR FROM DRIVER AND COLD AIR ON PASSENGER WHEN BOTH SHOULD BLOW HOT AIR. *NM

WINDSHIELD FOGS TO POINT OF ZERO VISABILITY. HVAC HAS FAILED - NO HEAT FROM ANY VENT. THE WINDSHIELD WILL NOT DEFROST/DEFOG MAKING THE VEHICLE EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO OPERATE IN RAIN AND COLD WEATHER. *NM

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED A NHTSA RECALL LETTER #F25 FOR THE ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING: COOLING SYSTEM: FAN, WAS RECEIVED TWO MONTHS AFTER THE ELECTRIC FAN BLADE MODULE WAS REPLACED.
