TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1998 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, ALL THE DOORS BECAME DIFFICULT TO OPEN. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY FORCE TO THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE DOOR HANDLES IN ORDER TO OPEN THE DOORS. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
I JUST FOUND OUT I HAVE A CRACKED MANIFOLD, MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR HAS BROKEN PUT A NEW PART IN IT AND NOW THAT IS BROKEN,I HAVE ALSO HAD TO PUT A NEW TRANSMISSION IN IT WITH ONLY 148,000.00 MILES. IN 2006 I HAD TO FIX THE GAS TANK BECAUSE IT WAS BROKEN TOO. IS THIS NOT A RECALL PROBLEM????? ANY OF THESE, I HAVE HAD THE JEEP SINCE 2000 AND I BOUGHT IT WHEN IT HAD 20,000 MILES ON IT. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE THIS IS 2012 AND I ONLY HAVE 156,000 MILES ON IT NOW. THANK YOU. *JS
MY VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON IN PARK; WHILE IN PARK FOR LESS THAN 2 MINUTES THE VEHICLE WENT FROM PARK TO REVERSE; VEHICLE WAS STOPPED BY HITTING A TREE. NOW MY TRUNK IS DAMAGED, AND MY POWER LOCKS DON'T WORK; IF I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY THERE IS A FEDERAL INVESTIGATION GOING ON WITH MY PARTICULAR BRAND OF JEEP; THE DEALER SAID THEY WILL NOT FIX MY JEEP; SO WHAT I AM SUPPOSE TO DO. *AK

FUEL GAUGE MOVES UP AND DOWN WHILE DRIVING. I CAN NEVER DETERMINE HOW MUCH FUEL I HAVE IN THE TANK AT ANY GIVEN TIME. ALSO, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAUSES THE POWER LOCKS NOT TO WORK PROPERLY ON HOT/HUMID DAYS. DEALER COULD NOT FIX LOCKS SUCCESSFULLY.
