2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

I HAVE REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH TWICE IN ONE YEAR (2014). I HAVE PURCHASED A RE-MANUFACTURED ENGINE 2014, SHIPPED FROM TEXAS TO DETROIT, MI.

I WAS DRIVING TO THE STORE WHEN THE RIGHT FRONT LOWER SPRING SUPPORT GAVE OUT.I HAVE NOW BEEN WITHOUT A CAR FOR 3 WEEKS. UPDATED 09/10/15*LJ UPDATED 12/12/2017*CN

OUR JEEP WAS RECALLED IN NOV OF 2012 FOR FAULTY AIRBAGS THAT COULD DEPLOY AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE RIGHT IN FOR REPAIRS AND HAVE SINCE BEEN DRIVING IT AROUND WITH TWO CHILDREN IN IT. WE THEN RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE IN JAN 2015 STATING THAT THE ORIGINAL REPAIR DOES NOT SATISFACTORILY ELIMINATE THE POTENTIAL FOR INADVERTENT DEPLOYMENTS. WE HAVE SINCE USED THE VEHICLE ONLY WHEN NEEDED, BUT NOT WITH OUR CHILDREN IN THE CAR, AND HAVE YET TO BE CONTACTED TO FIX THE PROBLEM THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE A CRASH. WE HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM, AND HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM THAT CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE A CRASH. TODAY WHEN WE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND SAID THAT WE HAVE BARELY DRIVEN THE CAR IN SEVEN MONTHS AND WE NEED TO KNOW IF THE VEHICLE IS AT LEAST "SAFE TO DRIVE", WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY DON'T KNOW IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY ALSO STILL DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL BE ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT WE WILL NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND WANT THEM TO BUY THE VEHICLE BACK. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY ARE ALLOWED TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL ON A CAR WITH A POTENTIALLY DEADLY PROBLEM, BUT THEN TELL THE CONSUMER THAT THEY HAVE TO DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL THEY GET THE PARTS. ...UPDATED 10-13-15 *BF

HAVE REPLACED THE ENTIRE REAR TAIL LIGHTS DUE TO THE LIGHTS NOT ILLUMINATING WHEN BRAKE IS PRESSED. THE MECHANIC INDICATED HE SEE'S THIS ALL THE TIME WITH THE JEEP CHEROKEE'S. THERE IS A PROBLEM. I DROVE AROUND ALL DAY NOT KNOWING I HAD NO BRAKE LIGHTS. THIS IS A PROBLEM EVEN AFTER REPLACING I HAD TO RETURN TO HAVE IT FIXED AGAIN. THIS NEED TO BE LOOKED AT.
