VISIBILITY: DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM:WINDSHIELD:BLOWER I HAVE A 2000 JEEP THAT THE DEFOGGER DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY, AND FROM WHAT I HAVE LEARNED, CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR SOME TIME AND HAS FAILED TO ACT ON THE PROBLEM AS FAR AS A RECALL! THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE WITH MOST JEEPS. THIS FAILURE OCCURS EVERYDAY DUE TO THE FACT THE BLEND DOORS ARE BROKEN AS PART OF FAULTY MANUFACTURING. I CAN'T EVEN DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T MIND FIXING THE PROBLEM, BUT WHEN I LEARN THAT CHRYSLER KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM LONG AGO, I THINK THEY NEED TO BEAR SOME OF THE BURDEN. THANK YOU. *TR

THE HEAT/AC UNIT ON MY 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE STOPPED WORKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, NOW THE DRIVER SIDE HAS NO HEAT. IT APPEARS TO BE A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH ALL JEEPS 1999 AND NEWER, AND IT HAS NEVER BEEN A SUBJECT OF A RECALL. *TR

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM ACTS ERRATICALLY. REGARDLESS OF WHAT SETTINGS ARE USED, HOT AIR WILL BLOW OUT ONE SIDE WHILE COLD BLOWS OUT THE OTHER. SOMETIMES WHICH SIDE IS COLD OR HOT WILL SWITCH. I AM FILING THIS WITH THE NHTSA BECAUSE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. BECAUSE MY AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK CORRECTLY, I HAVE NO WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER. WE HAVE BEEN RECEIVING A LOT OF RAIN LATELY AND THE TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN DROPPING. MY WINDSHIELD KEEPS GETTING FOGGY AND I CAN'T CLEAR IT. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND WIPE IT OFF WITH A TOWEL JUST TO HAVE IT FOG UP AGAIN A FEW MINUTES LATER WHILE I'M TRYING TO DRIVE. IN THE WINTER, THE WINDSHIELD WILL FREEZE OVER AND IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP CLEAR VISIBILITY. I CAN DEAL WITH BEING UNCOMFORTABLE, BUT NO DEFROSTER IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE INTO A DEALERSHIP AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THE COST OF REPAIR WILL BE AT LEAST $1200. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, IT APPEARS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. MY FATHERS 99' JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. JEEP HAS IDENTIFIED A DESIGN FLAW AND HAS REPLACEMENT PARTS, BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM UNDER WARRANTY UNLESS THE VEHICLE IS STILL IN WARRANTY. THIS IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW AND A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. JEEP DIDN'T HAVE A FIX FOR THIS UNTIL THE JEEP WAS WELL OUT OF WARRANTY. I PUT TODAY'S DATE AS THE INCIDENT DATE, BUT THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST YEAR. IT IS CONSIDERABLY WORSE NOW AND THE VEHICLE WILL BE UNSAFE TO DRIVE THIS WINTER. *TR

ONLY COLD AIR BLOWS FROM THE RIGHT SIDE VENTS ON MY 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THIS BEGAN THE END OF THIS PAST WINTER. THIS PROBLEM AFFECTS THE HEAT VENTS AND THE DEFROST VENT, THEREFORE CAUSES A SAFETY HAZARD, AS THE RIGHT SIDE WINDSHIELD ICES UP. FROM MY SEARCHES, THIS APPEARS TO BE A BIG PROBLEM, EFFECTING MANY JEEP OWNERS. MY MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP, SAID IT WOULD BE ABOUT A GRAND TO FIX. HE ALSO DID NOT EVEN ASK ME IF I WANTED TO GET IT FIX, ALMOST LIKE IT WAS TOO TIME CONSUMING AND DID NOT WANT ME TO GET IT FIXED. SO, THEREFORE I HAVE NOT HAD IT FIXED YET. *TR

I OWN A 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED. THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE OF THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WERE (1) RAPID FOGGING OF FRONT WINDSHIELD,(2) FOGGING OF FRONT PASSENGER WINDOWS,(3) FAILURE OF PASSENGER HEAT WHILE STILL MAINTAINING DRIVER HEAT FUNCTION, AND (4) ONLY COLD AIR RELEASE ON PASSENGER SIDE OF JEEP. CONSEQUENTLY,(1) THE WINDSHIELD AND FRONT WINDOWS DO NOT DEFOG, AND (2) NO HEAT WHATSOEVER COMES FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR AND DASHBOARD VENTILATION SYSTEM. TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM, A "BLEND AIR DOOR" IS NECESSARY AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $1,400. ACCORDING TO THE CERTIFIED SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND ONLINE FORUMS, THIS HAS BECOME A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2000-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED'S WITH DUAL ZONE VENTILATION SYSTEMS. GIVEN THE MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME OF 110,000, I THOUGHT IT A REASONABLE FAILURE. LATER I FOUND OUT THIS IS A VERY COMMON FAILURE. 14 MONTHS LATER, THE HEATER BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS AGAIN AND SEEMED NOT TO RESPOND TO THE CONTROLS. THE SHOP SAYS IT IS THE "BLEND DOORS" AGAIN! I TOLD THEM THEY WERE REPLACED 14 MONTHS EARLIER AND THEY REPLIED IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS EVERY SERVICE COORDINATOR AT THIS PARTICULAR DEALERSHIP HAD A SET OF BAD BLEND DOORS UNDER THEIR DESK TO SHOW PEOPLE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS! IF THIS IS SO COMMON, IT SEEMS THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT! 14 MONTHS EXPECTED LIFETIME?? $3K IN 14 MONTHS JUST TO GET A HEATER WORKING? TOO MUCH! SOMETHING MUST BE DONE!! *TR

I DID SOME RESEARCH AND THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE WITH JEEP.
