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 WANT TO SEND A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS ON OUR 2000 JEEP. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 4 OF THESE DUE TO THE "QUACKING" SOUND THAT EVENTUALLY SHOWS UP. IT IS A VERY ANNOYING SOUND AND BESIDES THAT THE LOCK DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE. YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOOR. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE JEEP DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS. I AM REQUESTING A RECALL BE MADE FOR JEEP TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION OF 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO FROM A STOP POSITION WITH HORSE TRAILER ATTACHED ALMOST COST SERIOUS INJURY TO LIFE AND PROPERTY DAMAGE. VEHICLE WAS IN STOPPED POSITION.

NO ONE CAN FIND THE SOURCE OF THE LEAK AND I HAVE READ PAGE AFTER PAGE OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET CONCERNING THE EXACT THING WITH THE EXACT MODEL!! *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
