Consumer Description

THE DAY AFTER I BOUGHT THE BRAND NEW 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DIESEL, I UNLOCKED THE DOORS WITH THE KEY FOB, OPENED A COUPLE OF THE DOORS AND LOADED MY LUGGAGE, THEN I DID THE KEY SEQUENCE ON THE KEYFOB (LOCK+PANIC) TO TURN OFF THE BEEP WHEN YOU LOCK THE CAR. AFTER ALL THIS I TRIED TO START IT (CORRECT STARTING PROCEDURE - WAIT FOR GLOW LIGHT TO GO OUT) AND THE STARTER CRANKED THE ENGINE WITH NO FIRING AT ALL. I REPEAT AND WAIT 5 TIMES OVER ABOUT 5 MINUTES, IT FAILED TO START EACH TIME. FINALLY AFTER I HAVE WAITED ABOUT 2 MORE MINUTES, I TRIED AGAIN AND IT FIRED RIGHT UP LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TO. I AM CONCERNED THE CAR COULD FAIL TO START AGAIN. UPDATED 01-16-08. *KB
