PURCHASED THE JEEP IN SEPTEMBER-1ST INCIDENT OCCURRED SEPT 30-ENGINE CUT OFF. TROUBLE LIGHT INDICATED NO OIL. TOOK JEEP INTO DEALER I WAS TOLD IT WAS A LOSE ELECTRICAL SWITCH. 2ND INCIDENT JEEP HAD A SIZZLING SOUND FROM ENGINE AREA LIKE AIR ESCAPING FROM VALVE OR MANIFEST. THE BRAKES HAD A CLICKING SOUND WHEN PRESSED. TOOK IN FOR REPAIR TO DEALER. THE DEALER-PREBUL JEEP REPLACES THE GEAR BOX WITHOUT INFORMING ME OF THE RECALL. I WAS NOT INFORMED OF A RECALL WHEN I PURCHASED THE JEEP. NOW THE ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE A RACE CAR, CAR SHAKES WHEN IDLE,WHEN CHANGING GEARS SOUND IS HARSH LIKE SOMETHING IS TEARING, AND THE BRAKES CLICK. I WAS TOLD BY PREBUL REPAIR THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEMS NOW AND ALL THE JEEPS SOUND LIKE THAT. THE JEEP NOW DRIVES VERY ROUGH. I HAVE OWNED A JEEP PREVIOUSLY AND IT NEVER SOUND LIKE THIS ONE.*AK

Service brakes, Hydraulic, Oct 2, 2001
I HAVE BEEN CONCERNED ABOUT THE BRAKING SYSTEM AS THE SHOES WERE CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT 5745 MILES. AT 12503 MILES THE ROTORS NEEDED TO BE RESURFACED. NOW AT 15, 200 MILES I STILL FEEL A VIBRATION UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN VERY PATRONIZING. THEY STATE IT'S MY TIRES. THE GOODYEAR TIRE DEALER STATED THAT IF THERE IS VIBRATION UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES IT IS NOT THE TIRES BUT IT IS THE BRAKES. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT ACTION MOTORS HAS BEEN STALLING ME SO THAT THE CAR REACHES 18000 MILES AND WILL BE INELIGIBLE FOR THE LEMON LAW RETURN. I BELIEVE THERE ARE OTHER JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I'VE SPOKEN TO SEVERAL JEEP OWNERS AND THEY STATED THEY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM.. UNFORTUNATELY I DID NOT GET ANYONE'S NAMES AND ADDRESSES BUT I BELIEVE THAT THE NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS OF THE JEEP CHEROKEE TO ASCERTAIN HOW MANY PERSONS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. THANK YOU ROSALIE CICOGNA. *AK

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS PRIOR TO ACCIDENT, ALWAYS UNDER FIVE MILES AN HOUR, I WOULD STEP N THE BRAKE AND THE CAR WANTED TO KEEP GOING. ON THE OCCASION OF THE ACCIDENT, I APPLIED BOTH FEET TO THE BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP AND HIT A CHAIN LINK FENCE. AN INVSESTIGATOR FROM CHRYSLER CHECK THE VEHICLE ON 8/29/01 AND INDICATED THAT THE ONLY THING THAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED IS THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SITS HIGH THAN THE BRAKE PEDAL AND I HIT BOTH AT THE SAME TIME. MY FOOT IS NOT WIDE ENOUGH TO HIT BOTH AT THE SAME TIME. IN A PREVIOUS INCIDENT, I WAS IN PARK , PUT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE AND IT LERCHED BACKWARD. THE INVESTIGATOR COULD ONLY DUPLICATE THE SITUATION BY PUTTING HIS FOOT ON BOTH THE BRACK AND ACCELERATOR AT THE SAME TIME. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT.*AK

THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME IN 30 DAYS I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR REPAIR ON THE TRANSMISSION. THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE OUTSIDE TEMP. GAUGE SAYS IT'S 125 DEGREES OUTSIDE WHEN IT IS 84 DEGREES. I PRESS MY FOOT ON THE PEDAL AND IT HESITATES AND SLOWLY DRIVES UNTIL THE GEAR KICKS IN AND THEN JUMPS FORWARD. FIRST THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION COLNOID, THEN THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE MODULE UNIT NOW THEY SAY IT'S ELECTRICAL. WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE, I FEEL A CLICKING ON MY FOOT THAT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY THEN GOES AWAY. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT'S BEING SERVICED IS NOT SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND IT'S TAKING A VERY LONG TIME TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION. I AM A PREVIOUS GRAND CHEROKEE OWNER AND HAD CONSISTANT PROBLEMS WITH THE ROTORS AND THAT ONE. I AM NOW UNSURE OF MY SAFETY AND THE RELIABILITY OF THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE ALREADY CONSULTED AN ATTORNEY AND CAN ONLY HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T NEED TO COME TO THAT. WHAT CAN I DO TO RECTIFY THIS SITUATION ?*AK
