2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

I AM CONCERNED THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT GOING TO BE RECALLED. I HAVE READ THAT IF I AM STRUCK FROM BEHIND MY CAR COULD CATCH FIRE. I AM EXPERIENCING SOME OTHER ISSUES WITH THE CAR, ONE OF WHICH IS IT DYING EVERYTIME I PUSH THE ACCELERATOR. SO I AM TERRIFIED THAT IF I PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND IT DIES, LIKE IT DOES REGULARLY, I WILL BE REAR-ENDED AND MY CAR WILL BURST INTO FLAMES AND MY KIDS, INCLUDING AN INFANT, IN THE BACK SEAT WILL DIE IN THE FIRE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE ANOTHER PERSON, CHILD OR ADULT, LOSES THEIR LIFE! *TR

THE GAS TANK IS A BOMB. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED NOW. 2.7 MILLION JEEPS ON THE ROAD, AND I AM ONE OF THEM. I AM 76 YEARS OLD AND AFRAID TO DRIVE FOR FEAR OF BEING HIT AND BLOWING UP. I LOVE MY FAMILY AND MY LIFE. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. ..UPDATED 07-05-13 *BF

YOU PEOPLE, AT NHTSA LOOK LIKE A GROUP OF "HORSE'S [XXX]" FOR BACKING DOWN. I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE GAS TANK ON MY 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED AND NOW YOU HAVE ALLOWED CHRYSLER TO "MAKE A DEAL" BY NOT INCLUDING THE 1999 TO 2004 GROUP...WHAT A "CROCK" THAT IS! YOU HAVE THE FACTS...51 DEATHS DIRECTLY ONLY ATTRIBUTED TO PLACEMENT OF THE GAS TANK....STOP SHIRKING YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES AND GET THEM TO RECALL THAT GROUP AS WELL. ENOUGH OF YOUR BEING "BACKED UP AGAINST THE WALL" BY THE AUTO MAKERS....GET OFF YOUR DUFF AND SHOW THEM WHO IS THE BOSS OF OUR SAFETY....ONLY YOU....NOW MAKE IT WORK! A VERY IRATE CUSTOMER.... (AND THIS SHOULD APPEAR EVERYWHERE AND CHRYSLER NEEDS HEAVY DUTY PRESSURE TO RECALL THE '99 TO '04 GROUP...SAME PROBLEM, SAME SITUATION AND WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN....GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME!) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I AM CONCERNED THAT CHRYSLER IS NOT INCLUDING MY EFFECTED YEAR JEEP BUT IS LEAP FROGGING TO THE 2002-2007 JEEP LIBERTYS. I HAVE THE SAME CONFIGURATION AS THE 1993-1998 JEEPS. DOES NOT SEEM FAIR. *TR

THE FRONT SEAT BRACKET HAS BROKEN ALONG WITH MANY OTHERS. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE THERE IS A FATALITY. *TR

WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE ON AND YOU STEP ON BRAKES ALL REAR LIGHTS GO OUT. I HAVE NOW BEEN CITED FOR THIS TWICE AND WARNED 3 TIMES. I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED WITH 2 LOCAL MECHANICS WHO THOUGHT THEY FIXED BUT YET AGAIN THIS IS BROKEN. I AM GIVING ALL MY HARD WORKING MONEY IN FEES FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR

SUNNY DAY, DRY ROAD. AT THE STOP I HEARD A LOUD 'TOC' SOUND REAR RIGHT SIDE. FELT LIKE THE REAR OF THE CAR HAD SLID. I MADE MY RIGHT TURN AND ACCELERATED ON ROAD WHEN THE CAR STARTED SWAYING LEFT AND RIGHT, I COULD NOT KEEP THE CAR ON THE ROAD AND ENDED UP ON THE LEFT LANE (55M/HR ROAD). MANAGED TO SLOW DOWN AND STOP IN PARKING LOT. MECHANIC SAID EXTREME CORROSION OF FRAME CAUSED SEPARATION OF THE AXLE TO THE RIGHT SIDE TORQUE. AXLE MOVED REARWARDLY TO LEAN AGAINST THE WING. *TR

LIVING IN CHICAGO , MY JEEP HAS A HEATER PROBLEM , FROM DEFECTIVE FACTORY BLEND DOOR THAT BRAKE INSIDE DASH AND CAUSES THE HEATER AND AC NOT TO WORK PROPERLY AND WILL FOG THE WINDSHIELD MAKING THIS A VERY UNSAFE PROBLEM. *TR
