1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

ONGOING / INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE STALLING OUT WHENEVER IT CAME TO A STOP POSITION.VEHICLE BEEN IN DEALER SHOP ON TWO OCCASIONS AND NOTHING CAN BE FOUND. *AK

VEHICLE STALLS WHENEVER IT FEELS LIKE DOING SO, THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE UNSAFE SITUATION THAT WE DONT FEEL THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD HAVE A CHOICE IN MAKING. MY FAMILY APPARENTLY DON'T MEAN TO MUCH TO THEM. IF IT IS ALL THE SAME, WE WOULD PREFER NOT TO BE PUT IN THIS POSITION BY THEM OR ANYONE ELSE, MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS ARE OF MOST IMPORTANCE TO US. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AN UNHAPPY DAMLIER/CHRYSLER CUSTOMER FOR SURE!!! KEN N BARB DAVIS. *AK

BRAKES: FRONT END SHAKES WHEN BRAKING, ROTORS TURNED BY DEALER, BUT PROBLEM CONTINUES - DANGEROUS. DIFFERENTIAL/TRANSFERCASE: LOUD CLUNKING NOISE FROM REAR, 'ROARING' NOISE AT SPEEDS OF 30-40MPH AND 65-75MPH. ENGINE: STALLS(DIES OUT) WHEN IDLING IN GEAR AND WHEN PUTTING GEAR FROM PARK TO REVERSE, DELEAR DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX. VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD WHEN COMING TO A STOP, ALMOST HIT VEHICLE IN FRONT - DANGEROUS. IDLES ROUGHLY, RPMS GO UP AND DOWN AT STOPS, STALLS. STEERING: PULLS TO RIGHT, DEALER SAYS ALIGNMENT IS FINE. NOISE FROM STEERING COLUMN WHEN TURNING. AC: LOTS OF WATER CONDENSED INSIDE OF VEHICLE AT PASSENGERS FEET WHEN AC ON, DEALER SAYS NORMAL.

THE VEHICLE HAS MANY DEFECTS WHICH HAVE BEEN NOTED BY MANY OWNERS ; THE CAR STALLS OR THE RPMS FLUCTUATE WILDLY WHEN STOPPED AND IDLING. THERE IS ALSO A LUNGE OR JOLT ONCE THE VEHICLE COMES TO STOP. *AK

VEHICLE IDLES IRRATICALLY AND HAS COMPLETELY STALLED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. CONTROL MODULE WAS REPROGRAMMED ON AUGUST 24, 1999 AFTER TECHNICAL SERVICE CAME UP WITH SOLUTION TO PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAS SINCE STALLED AGAIN. MY QUESTION IS WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL OR WARNING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SINCE THE VEHICLE COULD STALL AT RR CROSSINGS OR INTERSECTIONS WHERE AN ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR. VEHICLE WAS REPROGRAMMED AGAIN DEC. 6, 1999. DOES THIS SOLVE PROBLEM OR IS IT ONLY ANOTHER BANDAID? *AK

AT 45+ MPH A GROAN NOISE THAT IS THERE WHEN PUSHING ACCELORATOR - DEALER REPLACE DIFFERNTIAL GEAR TWICE STILL HAVE NOISE; NOISE AT 72 DEALER REPLACED REAR DRIVE SHAFT,BALL JOINT, AND OTHER DRIVE LINE COMPENTS - THIS REDUCED NOISE BUT IT IS STILL THERE; AFTER DOING ALL THIS NOW HAVE NOISE IN REAR AT 20MPH (GRINDING IN DIFFERENTIAL?) ALSO A NOISE IN FRONT THAT IS HARD TO DESCRIBE

THIS VEHICLE HAS MANY/MANY INHERENT PROBLEMS, IT HAS AN ENGING PROBLEM THAT CAUSES THE ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING. WE ARE TOLD THAT THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT WOULD LIKE TO PUT CO PILOT IN THE CAR TO LOG A CODE WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS, HOWEVER WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THEY HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM ON OTHER CARS AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THE CO PILOT LOG IN ANY ERROR CODES. SO THEY BOUGHT THE CAR BACK FROM THE OWNERS. IT WOULD TAKE QUITE SOME TIME FOR US TO LIST ALL OF THE INHERENT PROBLEMS THAT ALL THESE NEW JEEPS HAVE 1999 0R 2000 MODELS. IF YOU COULD GO TO THE SITE ON THE NET AND TYPE IN 4X44U YOU WILL BE ASTOUNDED AT ALL THE FRUSTRATED FOLKS NATION WIDE. THE CAR ALSO HAS MANY DRIVETRAIN PROBLEMS TO MANY TO LIST, IT IS OVERWHELMING. PLEASE HELP US, WE WORKED HARD FOR THAT $38.000 DOLLARS WE GAVE TO CHRYSLER AND THEY ARE JUST PUTTING IT BACK ON US, THE CUSTOMER'S. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. KEN AND BARB DAVIS.

BRAKE ROTORS BECAME WARPED. THIS CAUSES A VERY SEVERE SHIMMY WITH THE STEERING WHEEL AND DIFFUCULT TO CONTROL. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. 1ST TIME ROTORS TURNED(APPROX 5600MILES), 2ND TIME ROTORS REPLACED(APPROX. 13000MILES) RETURNING TO DEALER FOR THEM TO FIX THE BRAKES FOR THE 3RD TIME(19200MILES).

FRONT BRAKES SHUTTER, CAUSING STEERING TO WOBBLE, ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLY. GARAGE MACHINED ROTORS BUT PROBLEM CAME BACK WITHIN 1500 MILES. ROTORS ARE WARPING UNDER MOSTLY HIGHWAY USAGE WITH VERY LITTLE TRAFFIC/CITY USAGE. MAKES STOPPING OR SLOWING VERY DIFFICULT ON HIGHWAY OR RAMP.*AK

WHILE APPLYING BRAKES VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL, RESULTING IN A COLLISION. DEALER HAS INSPECTED AND REPAIRED VEHICLE. *AK
