1997 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

ANTI-GLARE CHROMATIC FLUID IS LEAKING FROM DRIVER'S SIDE MIRROR DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SEAL IN THIS MIRROR CAUSING POOR VISION PROBLEMS. DEALER QUOTING $440.00 TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT IS EFFECTING DRIVER'S VISON OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC DURING LANE CHANGES DURING BACKING OF THE VEHICLE.*AK

WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO PULL TO THE LEFT, AND THEN SMOKE EMITTED FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED. *JB

ON MY 1997 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT HAS UNLATCHED WHILE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING OVER 25 TIMES. THIS IS ON SMOOTH, STRAIGHT ROADS. I BELIEVE THIS POSES A SERIOUS RISK TO LIFE AND WOULD LIKE JEEP TO RECALL AND REPAIR THE BELTS. *JB

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED BUT STILL ON WHEN SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE SLIPPED INTO THE REVERSE GEAR AND ACCELERATED. *NLM

TO WHOM EVER I AM SPEAKING TOO, I RECENTLY PURCHASED A VEHICLE AT A LOCAL PUBLIC AUCTION. IT HAS THE FIRESTONE WILDERNESS R15 TIRES THAT WERE ON THE RECALL. I WAS WONDERING IF I CAN STILL GET THE RECALL, AND GET NEW TIRES. THESE TIRES ARE NOT SAFE, AND I ENCOUNTER A BUMPY RIDE. THE VEHICLE I BOUGHT IS A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, AND THE CAR WAS A THEFT RECOVERY, SO THE FIRESTONE TIRES WERE ON THE CAR, SO NO RECALL COULD OF BEEN DONE. THE TIRES MAY STILL BE DANGEROUS, AND I WAS WONDERING WHAT TO DO TO GET NEW ONES. THANKS, I WOULD BE THANKFUL TO HEAR BACK FROM YOU. *JB

THE PLASTIC GAS TANK WAS DEFECTIVE WHICH CAUSED THE FUEL PUMP TO FAIL. *TS *JB

THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL ON THE FUEL TANK, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. *JB

THE LEFT FRONT TIRE EXPERIENCED TREAD SEPARATION, WHICH CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE LEFT FRONT END. *JB

WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, WHICH RESULTED IN NO BRAKES, CONSEQUENTLY THE CONSUMER HAD TO CRASH INTO A HOUSE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP. *JB
