Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE W/ 105,000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN MYSTERIOUSLY LOSING COOLANT FOR ABOUT THE LAST 5,000 MILES AND NOW MY OIL PRESSURE IS GOING TO 0 WHEN AT IDLE. AFTER CHECKING ON THIS ONLINE I FIND THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT.THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR MANY JEEP OWNERS AND SOME KIND OF RECALL OR FACTORY REPAIR SHOULD BE FORCED ASAP. THIS PROBLEM WILL INEVITABLY LEAD TO AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT.THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT IT (2ND OWNER) AND DID ALL THE REPAIRS MYSELF BUT THIS REPAIR IS A MAJOR ENGINE OVERHAUL AND SIGNIFICANT EXPENSE. IT IS A SHAME TO HAVE THIS MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE BY SO MANY PEOPLE AND BEING BLOWN OFF BY THE MANUFACTURER. THIS JEEP HAS BEEN OTHERWISE WELL MAINTAINED AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. *TR
