2002 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

I PURCHASED A 2002 JEEP WRANGLER FROM SHAKERS JEEP DEALER. SOUTH MAIN STREEET, WATERBURY, CT. AFTER HAVING THE JEEP FOR ONE MONTH THE WINDSHIELD PIITED INBETWEEN THE GLASSS.IT WAS ALSET TO HAVE PLYMOUTH GLASS TO INSTALL. THEN SHAKER JEEP WENT OUT OF BUISNESS! ALL THERE CUSTOMERS WHERE SENT TO BRADSHAW JEEP. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT WHEN THE SUN OR HEAD LIGHTS HIT THE WINSHILD IT IS BLINDING! IN OCTOBER I WENT TO BRADSHAW AND SPOKE TO DAIMLER/CHRYSLER ABOUT THE PROBLEM. FOR 2 MONTH'S I HAVE E-MAILED AND CALL BOTH WITH NO SUCCESS, SINCE THEN AT 4:30 A.M. A ONCOMING CAR HAD IT HIGH BEEMS ON AND I JUST TAP THE CORNER OF MY JEEP ON A BRANCH OF A TREE. IT HAS KNOW COST ME 250.00 FOR A RENTAL AND 650.00 FOR THE JEEP TO BE FIXXED. THE AUTO BODY SHOP TOLD ME IT WAS A CHEAP FACTORY INSTALLED WINDSHIELD!!!!M NOT LOOKING TO GET REINBURST FOR THE WORK BUT I STILL HAVE THE WINDSHIELD PROBLEM.. I HOPE YOU CAN HELP THANK YOU IN ANCE LIAM E. BEHR JR. *AK

DAUGHTER INVOLVED IN SINGLE CAR ACCIDENT IN WHICH 2002 JEEP WRANGLER ROLLED OVER 3 TIMES AND LANDED NOSE DOWN IN DITCH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. COMPLAINT WAS ISSUED TO CHRYSLER, THEY STATED THAT THE FRONT END HAS TO BE HIT JUST RIGHT BEFORE AIR BAGS ARE DEPLOYED. MY DAUGHTER WAS ALMOST KILLED AND DON'T BELIEVE THAT STATEMENT WAS TRUE. I FEEL IT IS IN FACT FAULTY EQUIPMENT AND AFTER READING THESE REPORTS , I FEEL THAT SOME KIND OF COMPENSATION IS DUE. MY DAUGHTER IS STILL SUFFERING BAD HEAD ACHES AND BACK PAINS. I ASKED FOR $50,000. AND WAS IGNORED. *LA

WHILE DRIVING AT 50/55 MPH THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE, THEN THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL VIBRATED. THIS WAS CAUSED BY THE CENTER STEERING LINK PIN BREAKING.*AK

WATER LEAKS INTO FRONT PASSENGER SIDE COMPARTMENT FROM AIR CONDITIONER DRAIN HOLE IN FIREWALL. WATER SOAKS FRONT CARPET, AND THE DRAIN PLUG IN FLOOR MUST BE REMOVED TO ALLOW WATER TO DRAIN OUT OF VEHICLE. APPEARS FOAM SURROUNDING DRAIN HAS FAILED ALLOWING THE WATER INTO THE VEHICLE.*AK

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS VERY HARSH ENGAGEMENT AND PRODUCES A LOUD CLICKING NOISE. OVER THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS I HAVE HAD MY 2002 JEEP WRANGLER IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THE REPAIRS HAVE NOT BEEN PERFORMED SATISFACTORILY. I AM TOLD CHRYSLER WILL NOT AUTHORIZE THE REPAIRS OR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE PARTS. THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER FULL FACTORY WARRANTY, THE TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE REPLACED IF IT CAN NOT BE REPAIRED.*AK

I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN OCTOBER 2002 WITH MY 2002 JEEP WRANGLER X. I HIT THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME GOING ABOUT 40MPH, AND WAS THEN HIT FROM BEHIND. NEITHER AIRBAG DEPLOYED, NOR DID THE SEAT BELT TIGHTEN. I HIT MY HEAD ON THE STEARING WHEEL. I TRIED TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH DAIMLER-CHRYSLER CORPORATION AND WAS TOLD SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS ALREADY BEING WORKED ON THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT. I WAS IN ANOTHER ACCIDENT AUGUST 8, 2003. SOMEONE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME ON THE HIGHWAY AND I HIT HIM GOING ABOUT 55 MPH. THE AIRBAGS AGAIN DID NOT DEPLOY. I AM TRYING TO GET AN ANSWER OUT OF DAIMLER-CHRYSLER AGAIN AND THEY KEEP GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND ABOUT IT.*AK
