FLIPPED JEEP AND ENGINE WAS IMMEDIATELY ON FIRE AND THEN GAS TANK BLEW UP. ME AND GRANDSON ESCAPED. NLM

THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL BEGAN MAKING A HOWLING NOISE GETTING LOUDER AND LOUDER. PINION GEAR HAS PLAY AND IS LOOSE WHERE IT ENTERS THE DIFFERENTIAL. THE LOCAL DEALER HERE IN VENTURA CALIFORNIA SAYS THAT IT IS NOT WARRANTY AND WE WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. THIS IS RIDICULOUS DUE TO THE LOW MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE. IT HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN OFF ROAD NOR PULLED HEAVY LOADS. I HAVE DRIVEN MANY VEHICLES OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A DIFFERENTIAL PROBLEM BEFORE TILL NOW. I SEE ON YOUR SITE ALSO THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM...WHAT IS THE FIX? OF COURSE CHRYSLER DOES NOT WANT TO DEAL WITH IT. I SEE ALSO THAT PERSONS WHO HAVE HAD REPAIRS PERFORMED AT THE DEALERSHIP HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM REOCCUR. IT SEEMS THIS ASSEMBLY MAY BE DEFECTIVE?*AK

THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD IS CRACKED. I DECIDED TO HAVE A TUNE UP AND DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM THROUGH THE DEALER. IT SEEMS TO BE A RELATIVELY NEW VEHICLE FOR THIS TYPE OF PART TO FAILURE. *AK

WHILE DRIVING AND UPON PUTTING VEHICLE INTO PARK IT AUTOMATICALLY WENT INTO REVERSE ON ITS OWN. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STEERING SHAFT BROKE AND DISENGAGED CAUSING INJURY TO THE DRIVER. NLM THE CONSUMER STATES THAT THE STEERING SHAFT BROKE DUE TO FAULTY DESIGN BY THE MANUFACTURER. THE CONSUMER IS SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT FOR INJURIES DUE TO THE STEERING SHAFT SNAPPING. *YH

DRIVER'S SIDE AND PASSENGER'S SIDE SEATBELTS WILL NOT RETRACT, AND WILL NOT HOLD.*AK
