HAVE A 2000 JEEP GC. DRIVER'S SEAT WOBBLY FOR SEVERAL YEARS. FINALLY REALIZED THE TRACK WAS FRACTURED IN MULTIPLE PLACES AND GOT A NEW ONE. IN CHAINING OUT THE TRACKS, NOTICED THAT THE SEAT FRAME IS ALSO FRACTURED IN MULTIPLE PLACES. SEAT NOW BEING HELD ON BY TWO PARTIALLY TORN PIECES OF METAL. ONLY DRIVER SINCE THE DAY IT WAS NEW. 200 LBS. *TR

THE DRIVERS SEAT IN MY 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE BECAME WOBBLY AND EVENTUALLY BROKE FROM THE FRAME. WHEN IT BROKE, I WAS DRIVING AND ENDED UP FLYING FORWARD AND TO THE RIGHT. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS OVER 1000.00 TO REPLACE THE SEAT. I CURRENTLY HAVE IT SECURED WITH ZIP TIES, BUT THESE WILL PROBABLY NOT HOLD THE SEAT IN PLACE IF I AM IN A CAR ACCIDENT. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK. WHEN SHE RESTARTED IT, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED A TOTAL OF TEN TIMES. BOTH THE DEALER AND A PRIVATE MECHANIC COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE A CRASH COULD OCCUR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO 6 POINT ADJUSTABLE POWER DRIVER'S SEAT. THE BRACKETS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE POWER SEAT ADJUSTER (THE BRACKETS THAT HOLD THE TOP OF THE ADJUSTER TO THE BOTTOM) BROKE ON JULY 3, 2009 UNDER NORMAL BREAKING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. BASICALLY THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SEAT NOW JUST FLOATS AROUND. IF THE CORRESPONDING BRACKETS ON THE RIGHT SIDE GO, THE SEAT WILL BE FREE OF THE VEHICLE AND I'LL BE DRIVING FROM THE BACK. I WAS WILLING TO WRITE THIS OFF AS A ONE OFF PROBLEM, BUT THAT'S JUST NOT THE CASE. THIS IS SUCH A COMMON ISSUE THAT I'M UNABLE TO FIND A REPLACEMENT FROM A SALVAGE YARD. THE DEALER WANTS $800 TO REPLACE THE ASSEMBLY (THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED AS IT'S NOT AVAILABLE IN ITS INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS) WHICH JUST IS NOT POSSIBLE AT THIS POINT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. IF THE SEAT WERE TO COMPLETELY BREAK AWAY AT 75 MPH (INTERSTATE SPEED WHERE I AM), IMAGINE THE CATASTROPHIC EVENT THAT WOULD OCCUR. I'VE GOTTEN A HOLD OF A USED 10 POINT ADJUSTABLE DRIVER'S SEAT FROM A 2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND AM HOPING I CAN MAKE IT WORK, BUT AT THIS POINT, THE ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED. IF THE ONE FROM THE 2001 JEEP CAN'T BE MADE TO WORK, I MAY BE FORCED TO CONVERT IT TO A MANUAL SEAT AS THE BRACKETS FOR A MANUAL SEAT ARE AFFORDABLE NEW. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE TAIL LIGHT KEEPS GOING OUT AND HAVING TO BE REPLACED. BECAUSE IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM EACH TIME, I BELIEVE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND CORRECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR
