2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE KEEPS LOSING ANTIFREEZE WITH NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF LOSS. ENGINE OILS APPEARS CLEAN OF COOLANT BUT HAVE READ SEVERAL ONLINE REPORTS WHERE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM LEADING TO OVERHEATING AND POSSIBLE LOSS OF THE ENGINE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED TOWARDS THIS ISSUE. *TR

THE SEAT FRAME ON MY 2001 JEEP BROKE. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. THE FRAME SEEMS TO BE TOO WEAK. IN AN ACCIDENT IT COULD BREAK AND CAUSE EXTRA INJURIES TO DRIVER OR PASSENGER. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

BOUGHT NEW 2001 GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED. CURRENTLY AT 84,000 MILES. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS AT LEAST 6 TIMES. LIKE ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM JEEP OWNERS, THE BRAKES WOBBLE WHEN APPLIED AFTER ABOUT 3-5 THOUSAND MILES. THREE SETS WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. ALSO AS I HAVE READ MANY OTHERS COMPLAINING ABOUT, THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WINDOWS HAVE FALLEN OUT. WHEN WE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THE CAR BEING A LEMON, THEY SAID IT DID NOT APPLY SINCE THEY REPAIRED THE PROBLEM. ALL THEY DID WAS PROLONG THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING PARTS UNTIL THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. THE DATE BELOW IS THE MOST RECENT, BUT HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE PURCHASE. *TR

FIRST OF ALL, I AM NOT THE FIRST PERSON TO HAVE THIS COMPLAINT. MY DRIVERS SEAT IS BROKEN ON MY 2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO. UPON RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT THIS PROBLEM WAS IN NO WAY UNIQUE TO ME. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!! I DEMAND A RECALL, OR AT LEAST COMPENSATION FOR PAYING TO HAVE MY SEAT REPLACED. IF I WERE THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM, I WOULD UNDERSTAND, BUT EVERY PERSON THAT I'VE TALKED TO HAS EXPERIENCED THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS EXACT SAME SEAT. THIS IS WHY PEOPLE HAVE PROBLEMS WITH BUYING AMERICAN CARS. UNLESS I GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED, REST ASSURED THAT I WILL NEVER EVER BUY AN AMERICAN CAR AGAIN. AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED, I WANT THIS FIXED. I WILL BE WRITING MY SENATORS. *TR

OVER THE PAST THREE YEARS MY POWER WINDOWS SLID DOWN. ONE LEFT REAR A FEW YEARS AGO SLID DOWN AS WE WERE GOING DOWN THE ROAD. RT PASSENGER SIDE DOWN ABOUT A YEAR LATER. JANUARY 2ND MY PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DID THE SAME. I TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP AND MECHANIC SAID IT WAS THE REGULATOR, IT WOULD BE 300.00 TO FIX IT, HE SAID YEP THAT'S COMMON IN JEEPS. I HAVE A FRIEND WHO HAS A 2002 JEEP, SAME PROBLEM WITH ALL FOUR.... I'M A SINGLE MOTHER, SINGLE GRANDMOTHER THAT CANT SPARE THAT KIND OF MONEY. YESTERDAY 04/14/2009 I WALKED OUT TO MY JEEP TO DISCOVER THE WINDOW WAS DOWN. THOUGHT WOW I DON'T REMEMBER LEAVING MY WINDOW DOWN BECAUSE I HAVE SOUND EQUIPMENT I WOULD HATE TO HAVE STOLEN. IT WAS CHILLY OUT THAT MORNING, TRIED TO ROLL IT UP.... GUESS WHAT? NOW ALL OF MY POWER WINDOWS ARE BROKEN DUE THE REGULATORS. FUEL PUMP, AND INJECTORS ARE MY PROBLEM TOO. OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!! LET ME ADD THE HEATER CORE TO THAT. I LOVE MY JEEP... I TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT, IT LOOKS BRAND NEW. THE OIL IS CHANGED WITH THE BEST MONEY CAN BUY AND ON TIME EVERY TIME IF NOT SOONER. *TR

DURING A HIGH SPEED REAR END COLLISION, BOTH THE DRIVER SEAT AND THE PASSENGER SEAT RECLINED COMPLETELY CAUSING SEVERE NECK INJURIES TO THE OCCUPANTS. *TR

SUDDEN ACCELERATION ONCE AGAIN BY THOSE WONDERFUL JEEP CHEROKEES. 2001 EXITING A CARWASH IN THE CHICAGOLAND AREA. THIS IS THE THIRD IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS. NOW THAT THESE JEEPS ARE GETTING MORE MILES ON THEM THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN ALOT!!!!!!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

MY DRIVERS SIDE SEAT ON MY 2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO HAS BROKEN. 3 OF THE 4 BRACKETS WHICH ARE ATTACHED TO THE SEAT FRAME HAVE SHEERED. THE RESULT OF THIS IS THAT MY SEAT IS ONLY ATTACHED TO MY CAR BY ONE BRACKET, IN AN ACCIDENT THIS BRACKET MAY NOT ADEQUATELY HOLD THE SEAT IN PLACE. WHEN MAKING A TURN THE SEAT SHIFTS. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH THE ONLY REMEDY BEING BUYING A NEW SEAT, OR MAKING A DO IT YOURSELF WELD TO REATTACH THE SEAT TO THE SEAT FRAME OR PURCHASING A NEW VEHICLE. IN MY INVESTIGATION TO SEE IF I COULD GET A REPLACEMENT SEAT I FOUND THIS SITE HTTP://VLANE.COM/POLL/30. HERE OVER 98% OF THE RESPONDENTS HAVE FACED THIS SIMILAR PROBLEM. THERE LOOK TO BE AROUND 100 RESPONDENTS TO THIS QUESTION THAT WAS ASKED. TO TRACK DOWN THIS SITE TOOK A RATHER LONG TIME, AND MY CONCERN IS HOW UNDER REPORTED THIS SITUATION MAY BE. THIS PROBLEM HAS STILL NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND HONESTLY I CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW VEHICLE. *TR
