FRAME AND SUPPORTS RUSTED TO THE POINT OF OFFERING NO STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF UNDERCARRIAGE. FRAME ON DRIVERSIDE AT SKID PLATE RUSTED ALLOWING THE SKID PLATE TO FALL. OBSERVED SEVERE RUST-THROUGH OF FRAME ALONG FRAME WHERE SKID PLATE HAD BEEN BOLTED. ALSO TRANSMISSION SUPPORT FAILED. HAVE PREVIOUSLY REPLACED FAILED BRAKE LINES WHICH RUSTED THROUGH. I HAVE PARKED THE VEHICLE AS IT IS UNSAFE. I THINK I REALIZED IT TOO LATE, HOWEVER SOON ENOUGH TO HAVE PREVENTED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. WARNINGS NEED TO BE ISSUED IMMEDIATELY OF THESE AND OTHER DEFECTS WHICH HAVE BEEN NOTED BY JEEP OWNERS, ESPECIALLY FOR POTENTIAL BUYERS. THE FRAME APPARENTLY RUST FROM INSIDE OUT LEAVING LITTLE INDICATION OF SEVERITY. *KB

I HAVE DOCUMENTED FOUR TRIPS TO THE DEALER TO FIX WATER LEAKING INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THERE ARE ACTUALLY TWO OTHER TIMES THAT I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT, SINCE IT WAS A RETURN TRIP, THEY DID NOT PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION FROM THE "DEALER AGENT" THAT PERFORMED THE WORK. ON MY FOURTH & FIFTH TRIP, I DEMANDED WRITE-UPS. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH A CHRYSLER FACTORY REP WHO REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING, SINCE ON THE FIFTH TRIP, THE "DEALER AGENT" COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. THE FACTORY REP DID SUBSEQUENTLY OFFER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT HAS NOT RETURNED MY CALLS. I HAVE FOUND THE WATER LEAK ON MY OWN AND ON MY SIXTH VISIT TO THE DEALER, I DEMANDED THAT THE BODY SHOP MANAGER VERIFY THE LEAKS. HE DID, AND I RECEIVED A "WORK ORDER" FROM HIM. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT BACK A SIXTH...

DURING HEAVY RAIN AND ONLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS A SEVERE LEAK DEVELOPS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER FOOT AREA, IT ALSO LEAKS IN THE RIGHT REAR STORAGE AREA. HAVE BEEN TO DEALER 3 TIMES NO FIX HAS BEEN FOUND. *AK

WHEN IT RAINS VEHICLE FLOODS IN THE FRONT AND IN THE BACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER 2 TIMES TO BE FIXED YET THE PROBLEM KEEPS REOCCURRING. THEY HAVE REPLACED ALMOST EVERYTING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE TO STOP IT BUT IT STILL HAPPENS. MY CARPET IS GETTTING RUINED AND MY CAR IS STARTING TO SMELL LIKE MILDUE. *AK

NEW TRANSMISSION AT 479 MILES PLUS SEVERAL OTHER REPAIRS. SPEEDOMETER OFF 8 MILES PER HOUR. THIS PROBLEM STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. DING IN DOOR POST BETWEEN WINDSHIELD AND DRIVER'S DOOR ON DELIVERY. WIND NOISE ABOVE PASSENGER DOOR FRAME. LEAKS AROUND DRIVER AND BACK DOOR SEALS. OIL GALLERY PLUG HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 3,149 MILES. HAD TO REMOVE TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE. JEEP WAS IN SHOP FOR A TOTAL OF 32 DAYS IN ORDER TO HAVE ALL WORK ACCOMPLISHED. NEW TRANSMISSION STILL NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. TRANSMISSION JUMPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR SOMETIMES WHEN VEHICLE IS MOVING FORWARD. NEW TRANSMISSION WAS INSTALLED, BUT PROBLEM OF CLUNKING SOUND DURING GEAR CHANGE AND KICKING OUT OF GEAR IS NOT SOLVED. WAS TOLD BY AGENCY SHOP THAT CHRYSLER CORPORATION HAD A NEW MANFACTURER FOR 2000 JEEP TRANSMISSIONS AND THE NOISE WAS JUST PART OF THE LIGHTER TRANSMISSON. TRANSMISSION STILL IS NOISY AND SOUNDS...
