2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

I BOUGHT A 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 4X4 LIMITED EDITION. I BOUGHT 4 NEW TIRES THE DAY OF THE PURCHASE. THE TPMS-TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM BEGAN FAILING A SHORT TIME THEREAFTER. THE LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD FLASHED TELLING ME MY TIRE PRESSURE WAS LOW ON VARIOUS TIRES. MY WIFE WAS THE SOLE DRIVER OF THE JEEP AND SHE WAS CONSTANTLY CALLING TELLING ME A TIRE WAS FLAT. SHE WORKED EVENING HOURS. I TOOK THE JEEP INTO LES SCHWAB FOR REPAIR. THEY ADVISED ME THE PRICE FOR THE SENSORS WAS MORE THAN THE PRICE OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS CONSTANTLY PUTTING AIR IN THE TIRES AND HAD TO RESET THE VEHICLE SERVICE MILEAGE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH AND APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL. WITHOUT WARNING THE BRAKES HESITATED WHEN DEPRESSED, THE PEDAL WENT MUSHY, I HAD NO BRAKING CONTROL AND THE ABS STARTED CYCLING LIKE I WAS ON A PATCH OF ICE. THIS LASTED FOR APPROXIMATELY 10-15 SECONDS. THE ESP, ABS, CHECK ENGINE, AND TRACTION CONTROL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. AFTER THE DASH LIGHTS ILLUMINATED THE BRAKES WORKED BUT ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL DID NOT. I PERIODICALLY HAVE INSTANCES WHERE THE BRAKES CYCLE ON VARIOUS WHEELS, I ASSUME THIS IS THE ABS CYCLING THE BRAKES. AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME RANGING FROM HOURS TO A COUPLE DAYS, THE AFFECTED INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING LIGHTS GO OUT AND THE WHOLE PROCESS STARTS OVER AGAIN WITHIN A FEW SECONDS TO MINUTES. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT THREW OFF TO MANY ERROR CODES TO TROUBLESHOOT. THE DEALER CLEARED THE CODES AND ASKED ME TO RETURN WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I JUST RETURNED THE CAR THE SECOND TIME. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THIS CONDITION. *TR
