This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
At 9773 miles air bag light came on and all gauges including speedometer and tachometer showed zero. When vehicle hits bump while driving, gagues come back only to eventually read zero again. Ongoing problem since July 1998 and dealer cannot fix problem. Been to dealer 8 times since initial problem, and still have same problem as of April 1999. Need some assistance for this problem since dealer is no help at all. Everytime they fix problem, happens a couple of months later again.
Instrument panel: All instrument panel gauges are driven by a microprocessor, such that it tells the panel what the gauges should read. When the instrument panel cpu fails, all gauges; fuel/temp/oil/volt and tachometer, speedometer an D odometer) fail simultaneously. This is disconcerting at best, highly dangerous (say if one were on a freeway) at worst. Also, transmission: The 5-speed transmission used with the 4.0L has major problems shifting into second when cold. Jeep's answer for years has been "they all do that" yet they have continued to use the same transmission and have no fixed for the problem to this date.
