AIR BAG LIGHTS AND CHIME KEEP COMING ON.WAS TOLD AIR BAGS WILL NOT WORK. FACTORY DEFECT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT HE WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 175,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 175,500. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

DOOR LOCKS NOT WORKING, INITIAL REAR PASSENGER LOCK MAKING A BUZZING NOISE FOLLOWED BY NOT OPENING. NOW THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR IS BUZZING AND OPENING INTERMITTENTLY. *TR

INTERMITTENT STALLING PROBLEM WHEN MOVING, VERY DANGEROUS, ABOUT REAR ENDED NUMEROUS TIMES. DEALER CAN NOT FIX, JUST THROW MONEY AT IT IN PARTS HOPING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY JEEP BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED!!!!!!!! *TR

WENT OUT SHOPPING. DROVE 15 MINUTES FROM HOME. CAR RUNNING AT NORMAL OPERATING TEMPS. WENT INTO STORE FOR 10 MINUTES, ON RETURN CAR WOULD NOT START. WOULD CRANK AND TURN OVER, BUT NOT FULLY START. AFTER LETTING SIT FOR 1 HOUR, THE CAR STARTED WITH NO OTHER ACTION. WHILE TRYING TO START, ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS WORKED OK. RADIO. A/C. HEADLAMPS. ETC. CAR ALSO STARTING STALLING AFTER THE "NO-START" ISSUE BEGAN. STALLED AT ANY TEMP, ANY SPEED, HIGHWAY, AROUND TOWN. CAR STALLS, BUT STILL HAVE LIGHTS, FLASHERS ETC. *TR

THE CAR STALLS RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING THIS CAN HAPPEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OR AT A STOP SIGN WITHOUT WARNING. HAVE SEEN SEVERAL MECHANICS. WHEN SEARCHING THE PROBLEM, FOUND 100'S OF OTHER VEHICLE OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. ENORMOUS SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVER AS WELL AS OTHER ON ROAD VEHICLES. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, THE DRIVERS SEAT HAD SOMETHING BREAK UNDERNEATH IT CAUSING THE SEAT TO BECOME MORE OF A ROCKING CHAIR, WOBBLING BACK AND FORTH AND TO THE SIDE. MY 19 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING AT THE TIME, AND THANK GOODNESS HE WAS PREPARING TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN AND HE ALMOST WAS THROWN BACKWARDS. NOW THIS VEHICLE IS UNDRIVEABLE. HAVE CALLED AROUND TO JEEP DEALERS AND FOUND OUT THAT IT IS THE POWER SEAT ADJUSTER WHICH NEEDS REPLACING. MOPAR HAS DISCONTINUED THIS PART AND IT IS NOT AVAILABLE. I HAVE SEEN ON OTHER COMPLAINTS THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHERS. WE NEED SOME KIND OF SATISFACTION ON THIS OBVIOUSLY UNSAFE PART. *JS

WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER, GAUGES ALL DROPPED TO ZERO. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TIGHT TO TURN AND THE BRAKES HARD TO APPLY, HAD NO ACCELERATION WHILE PUSHING GAS PEDAL DOWN. ALL LIGHTS AND RADIO STILL WAS WORKING AFTER GETTING IT OFF THE ROAD TURNED JEEP OFF WOULD NOT RESTART FOR 3 HOURS. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES MECHANIC CAN NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM NO CODES COME UP. HAVE ALREADY REPLACED BATTERY ALTERNATOR AND CRANK SENSOR HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG, WITH THREE CHILDREN I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS IT IS UNSAFE. ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HEAT THEY SAID HEATER COIL IS BAD AND ALL MOTOR DOORS IN DASH IS BROKE AND DASH WOULD HAVE TO BE TAKEN APART TO BE FIXED THIS IS ALSO AFFECTING THE A/C. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AS THERE HAS BEEN PLENTY COMPLAINTS ALREADY. THIS IS A DEATH TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR

THE SKID PLATE COVERING MY 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO HAS ALMOST COMPLETELY RUSTED OFF THE VEHICLE. WITH THE CURRENT INVESTIGATION REQUESTED FOR OLDER MODEL JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES, I FEEL THIS REQUIRES A RECALL AND ALL OLDER JEEPS SHOULD BE RETROFITTED WITH NEW SKID PLATES. *TR

THE DRIVERS SEAT FRAME HAS BROKEN FROM REGULAR USE. APPARENTLY THE STEEL USED IS NOT THE CORRECT STRENGTH FOR THE NORMAL USE OF THE SEAT. REPAIRS WILL FURTHER WEAKEN THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE SEAT. MANUFACTURER CLAIMS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTED. *TR
