2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Seats Problems

2 recalls have not been taken care of by the manufacturer. I purchased this vehicle 2 years ago and have noticed that the seats do indeed over heat. The airbags haven't deployed thankfully, but I'm not comfortable taking any chances. Do I have to pay a dealer to complete these repairs? Also, since I have had this vehicle, my blinkers and brake lights do not work consistently. They were in operable for almost a month. I had a Mechanix check them, and they said they were dine. Homer's auto shop florence oregon) I didn't drive at night for almost a month. Then my blinkers just started working again. All the fuses are fine, and no other electrical issues. Brake lights started working also. Up until 3 days ago, a driver behind me pulled around next to me at the stop light to tell me the brake light was out. I...

DRIVER'S SEAT FRAME/BRACKET BROKE IN FRONT OF DRIVER'S SEAT, ALLOWING THE DRIVER SEAT TO LEAN DETACH FROM THE FLOORBOARD AND MOVE BACKWARD TOWARD THE REAR SEATS. WHEN RESEARCHING THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE, IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY DEFECT. IF THE DRIVER SEAT FRAME CANNOT HOLD UP TO NORMAL USE, HOW WILL IT HOLD UP TO THE FORCES EXERTED UPON IT IN THE EVENT OF A REAR-END COLLISION? THIS IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY DEFECT AND BASED ON THE VOLUME OF OTHER CONSUMERS THAT HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE, IT IS UNBELIEVABLE THAT ACTION HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

FRONT SEAT BRACKETS FOR POWER SEATS SNAPPED AND SEPARATED CAUSING SEAT TO NO LONGER BE ATTACHED TO FLOOR. SEAT WOBBLES FROM SIDE TO SIDE ESPECIALLY IN CURVES AND TURNING. RENDERS SEATBELTS USELESS IN AN ACCIDENT.

SEAT HEATERS HAVE BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY HOTTER. PASSENGER SIDE GOT SO HOT I THOUGHT I WAS BURNED. MY HUSBAND AND I HEARD A POP ON PASSENGER SIDE AND SEAT HEATER SLOWLY COOLED DOWN AND NOW DOES NOT WORK. DRIVER SIDE SEAT SO HOT WE CAN'T USE IT. I WAS TALKING TO ANOTHER JEEP OWNER AND HE SAID HE EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING WHEREAS HIS WIFE ACTUALLY HAD RED MARKS ON HER BODY FOR A FEW DAYS. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL? *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE NECESSARY PART REQUIRED TO REPAIR THE SEAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE. AN AUTHORIZED DEALER STATED THEY WERE UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE REQUIRED REPAIR AND INDICATED THAT THEY COULD NOT GET THE BOLTS OUT OF THE SEAT WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED TOO MUCH DAMAGE TO REPAIR THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE SEAT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED BECAUSE THE DRIVER SEAT DESIGN/MANUFACTURE IS DEFECTIVE. I FIRST NOTICED A CLICKING NOISE WHEN IN THE CAR. I BECAME ACCUSTOMED TO THE NOISE AND BASICALLY OVERLOOKED IT FOR MONTHS. ONE DAY WHEN GETTING INTO THE CAR IN A PARKING LOT I LANDED IN THE BACK SEAT. AS I WAS GETTING INTO THE CAR THE DRIVER SEAT TILTED BACKWARDS LIKE A ROCKING CHAIR AND I WAS HALFWAY DUMPED HEAD FIRST (UPSIDE DOWN) INTO THE REAR OF THE CAR. I WAS NOT INJURED. I LOOKED UNDER THE SEAT AND WAS ABLE TO SEE THAT THE SEAT FRAME IS BOLTED TO THE CAR AND THAT THE FRONT OF THE SEAT IS ATTACHED TO THE SEAT FRAME BY TWO VERY THIN "CAST IRON" BRACKETS. THE TWO BRACKETS (LEFT AND RIGHT) HAD BOTH SIMPLY SHEARED OFF AND THERE IS NOTHING HOLDING THE FRONT OF THE SEAT TO THE SEAT FRAME...

WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS I HEARD A POP AND THE LEFT CORNER OF THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT FELL FORWARD. THE BASE OF THE SEAT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH NOW. WHEN VEHICLE ACCELERATES, THE SEAT ROCKS BACKWARDS AND WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED THE SEAT ROCKS FORWARD. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE AND HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND A REFUSAL BY CHRYSLER TO RECALL AND FIX THE SEAT BRACKET. HTTP://JEEPSEATBRACKETPROBLEMS.BLOGSPOT.COM/ *TR

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE CAR. WITHIN THE LAST TWO WEEKS THE RIGHT FORWARD BRACKET ON THE SEAT FRAME HAS SEPARATED FROM THE SEAT HOLDER. IN RESEARCHING THE NET I FIND THAT THIS CONDITION IS RATHER WIDE SPREAD. USED FRAMES ARE AVAILABLE BUT THAT WOULD SEEM LIKE DOUBLING DOWN ON A POOR DESIGN AND SPENDING $400 BUCKS FOR AN IFFY REPAIR. WWW.JEEPSEATBRACKET.COM SELLS A REPAIR KIT THAT FIXES THE PROBLEM BUT I DOUBT IF A JEEP AGENCY WOULD INSTALL NON-JEEP PARTS AND AT 81 I DOUBT IF I COULD REMOVE THE SEAT BY MYSELF. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY HAZARD. BEING A MA BELL RETIREE THROUGH HABIT I DRIVE CAREFULLY BUT AND UNANCHORED DRIVERS SEAT MAKES ME VERY NERVOUS. I FEEL THAT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT I WOULD GO SAILING OUT THE FRONT WINDOW. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BEGAN TO WIGGLE AND IN CHECKING FOUND THAT THE BRACKETS MOUNTING IT TO THE FLOOR HAD BROKEN. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SEAT BRACKET IS BROKEN. MY SEAT BRACKET BROKE DURING NORMAL USE AND I AM AVERAGE WEIGHT. APPARENTLY 1,000'S OF THESE ARE BROKEN AND MANY PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT IT. THE BROKEN BRACKET ALLOWS THE SEAT TO WOBBLE AND POSSIBLY FALL BACK WHILE DRIVING. BRACKET IS MADE OF THIN GAUGE STEEL. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM, PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR

2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. CONSUMER REQUESTS REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS TO HEATED SEAT ELEMENTS RECALL NOTICE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE SEAT HEATER WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. HE BECAME AWARE OF THE RECALL AND HAD THE DEALER CHECK, BUT WAS INFORMED THAT HIS VEHICLE WAS ONE OF THE FEW THAT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL OF SEATS THAT POSED A DANGER OF CATCHING ON FIRE. THE CONSUMER STATED HE WAS LED TO BELIEVE, THAT HIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, BECAUSE THE HEATED SEAT ELEMENT POSED NO DANGER OF FIRE. HAVING BEEN LED TO BELIEVE THE PART POSED NO FIRE HAZARD, AND THAT IT MAY HAVE JUST WORN OUT, THE CONSUMER AGREED TO PAY THE COST TO REPLACE THE HEATED SEAT ELEMENT. HOWEVER, WHEN THE ELEMENT WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALER, IT WAS DISCOVERED THE PART WAS NOT WORN, BUT CLEARLY DAMAGED BY FIRE.

WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNER'S OF OUR JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE (2003) AND THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT STARTED WOBBLING FROM SIDE TO SIDE, WHICH MAKES DRIVING DISORIENTING PARTICULAR WHEN GOING AROUND CURVES. WHEN TAKEN IN TO THE SHOP WE WERE TOLD THAT THE BRACKETS ATTACHING THE SEAT FRAME HAVE FAILED AND ARE BROKEN AND NEED TO BE WELDED OR NEED A REPLACEMENT SEAT. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE WE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND REPLACING THE SEAT OR RE-WELDING THE SEAT BRACKETS WILL ONLY RESULT IN THIS HAPPENING AGAIN BECAUSE BRACKETS ARE MADE OF CHEAP METAL. I AM VERY FEARFUL THAT THE SEAT WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT (DUE TO THE DISORIENTED IT CAUSES WHEN DRIVING) OR THAT AN INJURY WILL OCCUR BECAUSE THE SEAT WILL COMPLETELY DETACH IN WHICH CASE THE SEAT BELT IS BASICALLY WORTHLESS IN PREVENTING INJURY DURING AN ACCIDENT. GIVEN THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS...

SEAT OVER HEATING BURNNING LEGS. *TR

OVERHEATING COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE OR INJURY. I WAS MADE AWARE IF THIS 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE RECALL BY A FRIEND WHO BOUGHT A USED 2003 JEEP GC. HE MENTIONED THE DEALER PERFORMED THE RECALL FOR THE SEAT HEATER. SEARCHING YOUR RECALL DATABASE I FOUND THE EXACT RECALL AS DESCRIBED TO ME. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER AND FOUND THAT OUR VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL NOTICE. I THE CONTACTED THE NHTSA, WHO VERIFIED THE DEALERS FINDING. THE NHTSA SUGGESTED THAT I FILE A COMPLAINT TO HAVE OUR VEHICLE ADDED TO THE RECALL. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE AS DESCRIBED. THE SEAT WILL HEAT UP TO AN EXTREME TEMPERATURE, THEY NOW DON''T' WORK. WE GOT HEATED SEATS AS MY WIFE HAS LUPUS AND NEEDS THE WARMTH DURING COLDER WEATHER. HOW CAN WE GET OUR VEHICLE ADDED THE RECALL?? THANKS *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A SNAPPING SOUND FROM UNDER THE SEAT AND NOTICED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT BEGAN TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH ABNORMALLY.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

THE HEATER IN THE FRONT DRIVER SEAT STARTED AT FIRST TO HEAT UP AND NEARLY BURN THE LEGS OF THE DRIVER ON HIGH, HAD TO SET THE CONTROL TO LOW TO KEEP FROM BURNING THE LEGS OF THE DRIVER. AFTER COMING HOME FROM WORK THE POWER LIGHT SHOWED THAT THE SEAT WAS STILL ON, YET THE DRIVERS HEATED SEAT DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE. SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING PRIOR TO SHUTTING THE ENGINE OFF AFTER DRIVE HOME. SINCE THEN THE HEATED SEAT IN THE DRIVERS SIDE DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE. ALL OTHER CONTROLS FOR POWER SEATS ADJUSTMENTS WORK FINE. I CALLED JEEP DEALER FOR REPAIR, COME TO FIND OVER 100,000 VEHICLES HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WHICH REQUIRED A RECALL ON THE HEATED SEATS (RECALL NO. F17, AND J14) ID# 06V197000, AND 09V117000. I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM THAT REQUIRES REPAIR BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE UNDER RECALL. *TR

MY FRONT DRIVER SEAT BRACKET HAS SNAPPED IN 4 SPOTS. THIS NOW LEAVES MY FRONT SEAT VERY UN-SECURE TO THE VEHICLE AND IS VERY SHIFTY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL AS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME MODEL JEEP AS MINE. THE SEAT BRACKETS AND MOUNTS ARE OF POOR QUALITY AND BREAK EASILY. AS RESULT OF THIS, MY SEAT BELT IS USELESS BECAUSE IF I DON'T HAVE A SEAT THAT IS SECURED TO THE VEHICLE, WHAT GOOD WILL A SEAT BELT DO IN A COLLISION? CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM YET ARE DOING NOTHING ABOUT THIS. THEY BEG FOR OUR TAX DOLLARS TO BAIL THEM OUT OF FINANCIAL HARDSHIP BUT YET THEY WONT HELP CONSUMERS THAT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS WITH REAL SAFETY CONCERNS. I JUST HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE A DEATH TO OCCUR FOR THEM TO OPEN THEIR EYES....

THE SEAT FRAME ON THE DRIVERS SIDE HAS BROKEN IN HALF. THIS SHOULD BE A PRIORITY SAFETY RECALL AS THIS DOESN'T SEEM TO BE AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. SEEMS MORE LIKE A DESIGN FLAW BY A COMPANY CUTTING CORNERS. SEE THE ATTACHED WEBSITE FOR MORE JEEP OWNERS THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR VEHICLE.

I HAVE OWNED A 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FOR TWO YEARS. IN DECEMBER 2010 I WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC WITH MY I INFANT DAUGHTER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY SEAT LIKE SNAPPED OFF AT THE BOTTOM AND I AM IN THE BACK SEAT. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT. THE METAL BROKE. I KNOW IM LIKE THE MILLIONTH COMPLAINT. I AM A SINGLE MOM AND CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE THIS EXPENSE OR RISK GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. *LN

THE DRIVER'S SEAT TO MY 2003 JEEP CHEROKEE LAREDO SHEARED AWAY FROM THE SUPPORT BRACKETS. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND A SEAT OR FIND SOME WAY TO FIX IT. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUES. *TR

THE FRONT DRIVERS POWER SEAT, BROKE FROM IT'S FRAME, THE PART WAS WELDED AND BROKE A SECOND TIME. THE SEAT IS UNSTABLE AND IN AN ACCIDENT COULD BREAK AWAY FROM THE TRACK AND WIND UP IN THE REAR SEAT. THE AIRBAG WOULD BE INEFFECTIVE. *TR

I HAD JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE AND TAKING THE OFF RAMP IN A HARD ARC WHILE SLOWING DOWN I FELT THE DRIVERS SEAT MOVE. I ONLY HAD A COUPLE OF HUNDRED YARDS TO GO SO I WAITED TO CHECK IT WHEN I GOT HOME. THE FRONT LEFT SEAT BRACKET HAD SHEARED AWAY LEAVING THE SEAT SITTING AT A FUNNY ANGLE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS THING TO HAPPEN. LUCKILY, NO ONE WAS HURT.

DRIVER SIDE LEFT FRONT BRACKET BROKE ON SEAT. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT HAS A BROKEN BRACKET THAT ALLOWS THE ASSEMBLY TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH. IT WAS PERFECTLY FINE UNTIL LAST WEEK. I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE 2002 AND THE SEAT WAS NEVER A PROBLEM. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT SEAT BREAKAGE ON THE JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO AND MANY OTHER JEEP MODELS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN ALL ATTACHMENT POINTS BREAK AND THE SEAT IS NO LONGER ATTACHED TO THE MOUNTS. *TR

2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, FRONT SEAT BRACKET BROKEN. *TR

DRIVER'S SEAT SUPPORT BROKE AND NOW THE SEAT WOBBLES. I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE. IT JUST HAPPENED TODAY WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND I HAVE NOT FIGURED OUT WHERE TO TAKE IT FOR REPAIR YET. *TR

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 5 YEARS THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT SUPPORT HAS BROKEN. BOTH TIME THE BREAK HAS OCCURRED ON THE FRONT LEFT CORNER. THE BROKEN PART IS OF THE SUPPORT ASSEMBLY, IT IS A TUBE THAT PIVOTS TO ALLOW FOR UP/DOWN ADJUSTMENTS AND HOLDS THE WEIGHT OF THE SEAT. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BRACKET HAS BROKEN FOR SECOND TIME DUE TO NORMAL USE. IF SEAT BRACKET BREAKS FROM NORMAL USE, HOW CAN IT STAND-UP IN AN ACCIDENT? ALSO IT IS NOT READILY APPARENT WHEN IT BREAKS, SO CRASH INTEGRITY IS ALREADY COMPROMISED. REPAIR IS $400 NEW BRACKET, OR OVER $800 FOR MY JEEP. OLD PART WILL BE RETAINED IN MY GARAGE. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM, BUT THE INTERNET IS FILLED WITH PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I THINK IT IS FAR MORE DANGEROUS THAN THE SEAT HEATER ISSUE I JUST GOT RECALL FOR.R

I WAS DRIVING MY 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND I NOTICED MY SEAT STARTING TO WOBBLE. FINALLY I NOTICED THAT THE SEAT BRACKET SNAPPED ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THIS IS A TOTAL SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO JEEP FOR REPAIR AND THEY ADVISE THERE IS NO RECALL.. HOW CAN THIS BE?. OH AND WHAT'S THE POINT OF WEARING A SEAT BELT OF THE SEAT ISN'T EVEN STRONG ENOUGH TO STAY SECURE TO THE VEHICLE. *TR

2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FRONT DRIVERS SEAT BROKE. SEAT DETACHED FROM FLOOR. TRYING TO REPAIR. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. *TR

2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE FRONT DRIVER SEAT BROKE THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAS BROKE IT BROKE RIGHT AT THE BOLTS THAT HOLD IT DOWN FIRST TIME IT WAS WELDED BUT IT BROKE AGAIN WELDING THIS SEAT JUST DOES NOT FIX IT. *TR

FRONT LEFT SEAT RAIL RETAINING BOLT TORE LOOSE FROM THE SEAT BOTTOM FRAME RAIL AND IS RESULTING IN A FRONT LEFT TO RIGHT REAR ROCKING MOTION. THIS MAKES THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO OPERATE BECAUSE OF DRIVERS SEAT INSTABILITY, AND UNCOMFORTABLE WHILE DRIVING DUE TO ABNORMAL SEAT POSITION. IT SHOULD BE MENTIONED THAT THERE HAS BEEN NO ABUSIVE OPERATION OR ABNORMALLY HIGH OR HARD USAGE OF THIS VEHICLE. *NLM
