2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

CAR WAS PARKED IN GARAGE. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE AND THE CAR LITERALLY SHOT OUT OF THE GARAGE STRAIGHT INTO A TREE. MY DRIVEWAY IS CURVED - FORTUNATELY THE TREE STOPPED THE CAR OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE STREET. IMPACT TOTALED THE CAR, BROKE THE GAS TANK WHICH MAY CAUSE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES ON MY PROPERTY. IT PROBABLY TOOK LESS THAN 2 SECONDS TO TRAVEL OUT OF THE GARAGE AND THEN 54 FEET UP THE DRIVEWAY INTO THE TREE. I FELT AS IF IT WERE AIRBORNE. *JB

IN JUNE OF 2006, MY FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW FELL DOWN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE REPLACED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE REGULATOR. I HAD TO PAY $200 OUT OF POCKET. THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED TO MY LEFT PASSENGER WINDOW IN MARCH OF 2007. THIS TIME IT COST ME OVER $400. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS NOT BEEN COOPERATIVE. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A JEEP DEFECT AS THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED TO BOTH WINDOWS, BOTH OF WHICH I RARELY USE. *JB
