TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE WOULD CONSTANTLY OVERHEAT, CAUSING THE RADIATOR TO FAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN THE TO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES FOR THE FAILURE WHERE THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED, TRANSMISSION SEALS AND FLUID WERE REPLACED. THE RADIATOR WAS REPLACED TWICE YET THE REPAIRS DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE AND THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO OVERHEAT SPORADICALLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE TO THE CONTACT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,530 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 179,705.
ON MY WAY TO WORK ON MONDAY MORNING AT AROUND 5:15 AM, SMOKE STARTED TO COME OUT FROM MY JEEP'S HOOD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I TURNED AROUND AND PROCEED TO HEAD BACK HOME. WITHIN FOUR TO FIVE MINUTES THE SMOKE TURNED INTO FLAMES AND THE FRONT OF THE CAR WAS ON FIRE (ON A LOCAL STREET). I JUMPED OUT FROM CAR AND THEN CALLED THE POLICE. ONCE FIREMEN CAME THEY PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE JEEP IS A TOTAL LOSS. *TR
