MY 2000 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE LARADO HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRIAL SYSTEM. ALL THE DASH LITES ARE ON AND THE SPEEDOMETER DOSNT WORK. IT HAS BEEN AT A JEEP DEALERSHJP FOR ALMOST A MONTH. THEY CANT FIGURE OUT WHATS WRONG WITH IT. THEY FIRST REPLACED A COMPUTER MODULAR AND I PICKED IT UP AND THE NEXT DAY I STILL HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS. I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY REPLACED THE SAMETHING AND TOLD ME IT WAS FIXED AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN AFTER PAYING OUT 980.00. I TOOK IT BACK A THIRD TIME AND THE COMPANY TOLD THEM TO CHANGE THE GROUND WIRES AND THAT DIDNT FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY ARE OUT OF IDEAS. THE RIGHT TALE LITE KEEPS GOING OUT ALSO. SO THEY JUST PUT A NEW ONE IN. THIS WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS WE HAVE CHANGED LITE BULB SEVERAL TIMES. THE REAR WINDOWS WILL NO...

MY MOM BOUGHT A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, 2000. ON JULY 25 WE WENT INTO TOWN TO THE HARDWARE STORE, MY SISTER AND HER GRANDDAUGHTER STAYED IN THE CAR WITH THE AIR CONDIDTION ON AND THE ENGINE RUNNING. WE WERE (MOM AND I) GONE 7-8 MINUTES, AND WHEN WE GOT BACK IN THE CAR; PUT THE SEAT BELTS ON, PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND PUT THE JEEP IN REVERSE AND WE TOOK OFF BACKWARDS ACROSS THE NAYLORS PARKING LOT ACROSS THIRD STREET, UP AND OVER THE CURB, WENT BETWEEN TWO TREES INTO THE PARKING LOT BETWEEN THE FIRE STATION AND CITY HALL WHERE WE HIT A PARKED CAR AND THE PARKED CAR HIT A TELEPHONE GUIDE WIRE, WE HIT A TREE THAT FINALLY STOPPED US.

AFTER OWNING THIS VEHICLE FOR JUST OVER 19 MONTHS, WE HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE MAIN COMPUTER REPLACED AS WELL AS NEW FRONT BRAKE ROTORS 2 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME WE HAD TO REPLACE THE ROTORS WE HAD OWNED THE CAR FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. NOW, THE SECOND TIME WE'RE REPLACING THE ROTORS AFTER ONLY 7 MONTHS. THE BRAKE ROTORS WARP AND CAUSE SEVER "SHIMMYING" WHILE BRAKING, THIS LEADS TO LESS CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND DELAYED STOPPING. THIS PROBLEM CAUSES A HAZARD TO BOTH THE PASSENGERS OF THE DEFECTIVE VEHICLE AND TO THOSE DRIVING AROUND IT. THESE VEHICLES NEED TO BE RECALLED AND THE DEFECT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED RIGHT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND YOUR HELP.*AK

WHEN STOPPED AT TRAFFIC SIGNAL OR WHEN SLOWING, VEHICLE WOULD CUT OFF COMPLETELY -- LOSING ALL POWER. IT WAS CHECKED BY DEALER ON THE SECOND DAY OF PROBLEM OCCURRING. THEY INITIALLY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. WAS RETURNED TO DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND THEY WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM BUT THEY NOR CHRYSLER HAD A FIX FOR IT. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN WITH THE DEALER SINCE OCTOBER 5, 2000. TODAY'S DATE IS NOVEMBER 22, 2000. SUPPOSEDLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE COMPUTER WHICH CHRYSLER WAS TO HAVE THE FIX AVAILABLE THE FIRST OF NOVEMBER. NOW DUE TO SOME OTHER REASON THE FIX WON'T BE AVAILABLE UNTIL AFTER JANUARY 1, 2001. CHRYSLER IS SUPPOSED TO CONTACT ME TO DISCUSS A RESOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM. *AK
