1995 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY VEHICLE WOULD START TO BUCK. SPEED PLAYED NO FACTOR. THEN VEHICLE WOULD DIE OUT AFTER TRYING TO EXIT A RAMP. WOULD HAVE NO OTHER WARNING, EXCEPT BUCKING WHEN IT WOULD STALL OUT. HAD NOT TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALER TO CHECK. *AK

THE VEHICLE WAS PUT IN PARK, THE CONSUMER EXITED THE VEHICLE AND WALKED BEHIND IT WHEN IT JUMPED OUT OF PARK INTO REVERSE AND ROLLED BACKWARDS, CLAIM # 20-5396-776. NLM

WHEN VEHICLE WENT IN FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, DEALER STATED 3 ENGINE MOUNTS AND THE TRANMISSION MOUNTS HAD FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. ONE ENGINE MOUNT HAD BEEN REPLACED PREVIOUSLY ON 8/5/97. IT APPEARS THAT THESE PARTS FAILED DUE TO A MANUFACTURING OR DESIGN DEFECT. THIS IS NOT AN ITEM THAT SHOULD FAIL ON A VEHICLE THAT IS JUST OVER FIVE YEARS OLD AND HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN OFF-ROAD. WHEN THE DEALER WAS QUESTIONED, I WAS TOLD THAT THE PART IS POORLY DESIGNED AND TENDS TO GO OUT ABOUT THIS TIME. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO REPLACE THE PARTS. THIS IS A MAJOR RIP-OFF ON A PART THAT IS FAILING PREMATURELY BECAUSE OF MANUFACTURING FLAWS.

VEHICLE EXPERIENCED RECALL COMPONENT (00V-136) FAILURE PRIOR TO RECALL NOTIFICATION, OWNER REQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT. *MJS

CONSUMER HAS A 95 GRAND CHEROKEE SIDE WALLS ARE CRACKING. THE TIRES HAVE 30,000 MILES. TIRE SIZE P225/70R15. *AK THE DOT #'S CEBX FOR 3 OF THE TIRES AND HNHV FOR ONE OF THE TIRES, THE TIRES LOSE AIR PRESSURE AND THE SIDEWALLS ARE CRACKING ON ALL 4 MICHELIN LTX TIRES. *SLC

AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUN ON THE HIGHWAY FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES, THE TRANSFER CASE LOCKS UP, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO MAKE ANY TURNS. IT IS SCRUBBING RUBBER OFF THE EDGES OF THE TIRES, AND THE TRANSFER CASE MAKES A RACHETING SOUND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN. I WROTE DAIMLERCHRYSLER CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE ON JULY 18, 2000 BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY REPLY FROM THEM. THIS IS THE SECOND FAILURE OF THIS COMPONENT, THE FIRST AT 17167 MILES ON 07/09/96. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE OVER 25 MILES UNTIL I GET THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED.

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 75 MPH RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAD A BLOWOUT WITHOUT A PRIOR WARNING. B.F. GOODDRICH, 30 X 9.5 R15. *AK

CONSUMER WAS IN FOR RECALL REPAIR AND DENIED ADDITIONAL WORK, WHEN HAVING THE ADDITIONAL WORK PERFORMED AT ANOTHER LOCATION IT WAS FOUND THAT THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT COMPLETED AS STATED ON THE INVOICE (99V-340), CONSUMER IS REQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS COMPLETED. *MJS

RIGHT REAR TIRE HAS SLIT ON SIDEWALL APPROXIMATELY ONE INCH STRAIGHT LINE. OUR STATE IS NOT IN THE RECALL YET. I DRIVE 84 MILES ROUND TRIP IN THIS VEHICLE AND WANT TIRES REPLACED NOW. *AK( DOT NUMBER: W1HLAT5 TIRE SIZE: P235/5R15 )
