The contact owns a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the blender that controlled the vehicle from running too hot or cold failed. The contact stated that the passenger side blower would expel cold air and the driver side blower would expel very little heat. The defroster was also inoperable. The dealer advised the contact that the entire dashboard and steering column would have to be removed in order to make the necessary repairs. The vehicle was not repaired. The VIN was not available. The failure and current mileage was 160,000.

Grand Cherokee

  • 4,000 miles
My 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited w/42,000 miles. Yes. Not a typo. 42,000, orignal owner & "scared to death" to drive this SUV. I have alot of the already problems, that have been reported. Had to pay many, w/my own cash. This SUV schould have came in 1 color "lemon yellow". it is an accident watng to happen. The recent problem is now I have no A/C-heat or defroster. Ths is due, to failure of the automatic temp control to work. I T started 1st by intermittently working, till now not working at all, this is just 1 more, to the list, of many other problems. I don't think that it is an coincidence that all my issue have happenned, almost exactly, in the order, of all the other complaints. I can't undestand how a company can get away w/this. This new problem can cost up to $2000, if it is, like previous reported problems, happens to be the "blend doors". as a handicapped driver I drive less than 4,000 miles a year. This is the only auto I drive, thus the many, many probs have yet to raise thier head. I have read almost all complaints(too many to read) this SUV schould be a "total recall, I have never heard more complaints & problems, in my life, for any automobile. This SUV schould be studied & reseached, on "how not to build an automobile. Just read the many complaints here & on the internet. We are not making this stuff up. I don't know how they stayed in business as long as they did. We, the taxpayers, bailed them out. Who is bailing out all the owners, of this "death-trap"" if that is not absurd enuff, many problems could have been repaired, by Jeep & still can. What is the purpose, of nhsta, if not to intervene? you have all the complaints. Hundreds of them. You have them posted, yet, we taxpayers/owners safety, has been at risk ever since this SUV was driven out of the showroom. How did you not make a recall on the rotor/brakes issue which was reported at 3,000 miles? I am so frustrated. Is braking problems not a safety issue" please, help us!

What a lemon! we are averaging $2000/year in repairs. Power windows that stop working, water pump breaks, brake rotors need replacing before brakes wear out, leaking differential, transmission, and now we're told by dealer service department we need a new transfer case. Whoever designed/built/sold this vehicle doesn't have much pride in their workmanship.
