2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

MY AIRBAG ICON ON DASHBOARD USED TO FLASH ON AND OFF WHILE TRAVELING. IT IS NOW ON CONSTANTLY. I HAVE TRIED MOVING THE SEAT BACK AND FORTH TO NO AVAIL. I UNDERSTAND THAT MY AIRBAG HAS NOW BEEN DEACTIVATED.

TRANSMISSION OIL TURNED MILKY AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. AFTER SERVICING TRANSMISSION VEHICLE NOW WILL NOT ENGAGE INTO PARK, STAYS IN REVERSE. VEHICLE WAS PARKED WHEN IT WOULD NOT MOVE FROM PARKING SPOT BUT, AFTER TRANS FLUID WAS CHANGED AND TRANS SERVICED WHEN YOU GO TO PARK IT AND PUT THE SHIFTER INTO PARK THE VEHICLE MOVES IN REVERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V438000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND STATED THAT THAT THE PART NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,803. PART DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT FIRST CAME ON INTERMITTENTLY. AT ONE TIME I COULD ADJUST THE PASSENGER SEAT AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IT NOW STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. I SEE THAT THE 2004 MODEL HAS A RECALL, AND MINE WAS MANUFACTURED IN LATE 2004, BUT IS NOT ON THE RECALL VIN LIST. I DID NOT REALIZE THAT THIS MAY MEAN THE AIRBAG IS NOT FUNCTIONING AT ALL, BUT RATHER THOUGHT IT WAS JUST AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. THE 2005 MODEL SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. THIS LOOKS LIKE A LONG STANDING PROBLEM WITH PREVIOUS YEARS MODELS AND OBVIOUSLY HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED IN THE 2005 MODEL.

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE CRACKED / VECH. HAS APPROX 60K MILES LITTLE USE FOR A 2005

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE CALIBRATION WARNING LIGHT AND THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE RECALIBRATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V438000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE WARNING LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,500.

NOTICED THE "PASS AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT" WAS STAYING ON ALL THE TIME. THEN I RECEIVED A P41 IGNITION SWITCH RECALL. TOOK THE CAR TO A CHRYSLER DEALER FOR IGNITION SWITCH REPLACEMENT. AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT STILL STAYS ON AFTER SWITCH REPLACEMENT. MY REASONING IS THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ORIGINALLY CAME ON BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL IGNITION SWITCH WAS FAULTY AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE AIR BAG AND/OR IT'S SENSOR CIRCUITRY. IS THERE ANY RECOURSE UNDER THIS RECALL TO RECTIFY THIS AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT PROBLEM WITH HOPEFULLY NO COST TO ME.

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR HANDLE CAME APART. REPLACED DOOR HANDLE. NOW THE TWO BACK SEAT DOOR HANDLES ARE COMING APART. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IN THAT IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT, THERE IS NO WAY FOR THE PASSENGERS IN THE BACK TO GET OUT. ESPECIALLY A PROBLEM IF THERE ARE CHILDREN SITTING IN THE BACK. IT NEVER SHOULD BE THAT ALL DOOR HANDLES ON A CAR COME APART.
