2001 GRAND CHEROKEE-ROTORS AND CALIPERS- DEFECTIVE CAUSING SEVERE PULSATING OF STEERING WHEEL UPON BRAKING.
Service brakes, Air, Feb 10, 2003
BRAKES, STARTING: AT 2900 MILE WHEELS STARTED TO VIBRATE ON BRAKING. TURNED FRONT ROTORS. 7000+ MILES SAME THING. REPLACED ROTORS. 13000+ MILES SAME THING. REP[LECED PADS AND ROTORS. 21000+MILES SAME THING REPLACED CALIPERS. (NOTE) BY THIS TIME I HAD HAD MY WHEELS ROTATED 7 TIMES IN 21000 MILES. (4) 17" MICHELIN RADIALS SHOT. AT THIS POINT I REPLACED THE TIRES WITH 600.00 WORTH OF GOODYEARS. GOODYEAR CHECKED THE ALLIGNMENT. IT WAS OUT. THEY REPAIRED IT AS BEST AS THEY COULD BUT SAID THAT I NEEDED A PARTIAL BALL JOINT. I WENT TO JEEP SINCE I THOUGHT THAT THE BALL JOINT WOULD BE UNDER WARRANTY. YES IT WAS BUT ONLY IF THE CAR WAS OUT OF ALLIGNMENT. SINCE GOODYEAR HAD ALLIGNED IT AS BEST AS THEY COULD TO PREVENT UNEVEN WEAR ON THE NEW TIRES. JEEP REFUSED TO REPAIR THE BALL JOINT UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY 200+ OR WAIT UNTIL IT WENT OUT OF ALIGNMNET AGAIN. THE GAS TANK HAS BEEN OFF THREE TIME TO REPAIR A STARTING PROBLEM.

I OWN A 2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THIS MODEL HAS BEEN THE SUBJECT OF 4 NHTSA SERVICE BULLETINS REGARDING THE PREMATURE WEAR AND OR/FAILURE OF THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS, YET DAIMLER-CHRYSLER REFUSED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM AT THEIR OWN COST. I HAVE PAID A TOTAL OF $852.00 ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO REPAIR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE FIRST TIME THE ROTORS FAILED WAS AT 29,000 MILES (WELL UNDER THE WARRANTY). I AGAIN HAD TO REPAIR THEM AT 39,000 MILES (ONLY 3 MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY). THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHER CONSUMERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP!!! *JB
Service brakes, Air, Jan 25, 2003
HAVE NOTICED AN UNEVEN BRAKING AND SHAKE IN THE FRONT WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED. TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE AND ASKED THAT THE BRAKES BE CHECKED. BEFORE THEY EVEN LOOKED AT THEM THE SERVICE PERSON KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS....WARPED ROTORS. I ASKED IF IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRENTY AND HE SAID NO.....EXTENDED WARRENTY AND HE SAID NO. I TOLD HIM THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE 30,000 MILES ON THE CAR, IT'S ONLY 1 1/2 YEARS OLD AND THAT I'VE HAD VEHICLES WHOSE BRAKES LASTED TO 40,000 OR 50,000 MILES. HE SAID HE'S SEEN THESE BRAKES GO AT 20,000! ALSO TOLD ME THAT DIAMLER/CHRYSLER KNOWS THEY HAVE A PROBLEM.....HMMMM FUNNY HOW THEY DON'T COVER BRAKES PAST 12 MONTHS/12,000 MILES. SAID THAT HE'D PUT NEW BRAKES ON THAT WEREN'T FACTORY INSTALLED FOR $400 WHEN I GET TIRED OF THE SHIMMERING.....AND GUARANTEE THEM FOR THE LIFE OF MY VEHICLE.
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Jan 21, 2003
A SUBTLE VIBRATION OCCURRED WHILE BREAKING WELL BEFORE 12,000 MILES; HOWEVER, I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING AT THAT TIME. THE VIBRATION PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE TO WHERE THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK VIOLENTLY BY 20,000. I HAD VEHICLE SERVICED AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PADS ARE FINE, BUT THE ROTORS WERE SEVERELY OUT OF VARIANCE AND THAT THEY SEE THAT FREQUENTLY ON JEEP CHEROKEES. I HAD THE ROTORS TURNED ONLY TO BEGIN EXERIENCING A VIBRATION ONLY 4000 MILES LATER.
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Jan 6, 2003
CONSUMER STATES THAT STEERING WHEEL SHAKES EXCESSIVELY AND THE BRAKES PULSATE WHEN APPLIED. DEALER DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS WARPED BRAKE ROTORS. PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. PH

WHILE APPLYING PRESSURE TO MY BREAK PEDAL FRONT WHEELS BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY. NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEED ON EXPRESSWAY. TOOK VEHICLE TO JEEP DEALER AND WAS TOLD THERE IS A PRODUCT PROBLEM WITH FRONT ROTORS, CALIPERS AND PADS AND THAT MANUFACTURER HAS ISSUED AN UPGRADE KIT. DEALER SAID HE SEES THIS ON MANY, MANY GRAND CHEROKEES. I HAD JUST HAD MY PADS REPLACED 14,000 BEFORE THIS INCIDENT. JEEP DEALER COULD NOT WORK ON MY VEHICLE FOR A WEEK SO I HAD TO HAVE NEW ROTORS AND PADS PUT ON BY ANOTHER REPAIR FACILITY. CALLED CHRYSLER-JEEP CONSUMER HOTLINE. ASKED IF THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND IF THEY KNEW ABOUT THE NHSTA SUMMARY BULLETIN NUMBER. I WAS TOLD IF I PERSISTED IN SEEKING AN ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION I WOULD BE DISCONNECTED. I ASKED AGAIN AND WAS DISCONNECTED. WHAT KIND OF STONE WALLING IS HAPPENING HERE? PLEASE CHECK INTO THIS INCIDENT. I HAVE READ OF OTHER WHERE ROTOR HAD BROKEN OFF AND CAUSED WHEEL TO LOCK UP. TS
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Dec 13, 2002
FRONT BRAKE ROTORS HAVE WARPED, CAUSING DEMINISHED STOPPING DISTANCE, AND CONTROL OF VEHICLE DURING BRAKING (STEERING WHEEL SHUDDERS). DEALER WILL NOT COVER UNDER WARRANTY, EVEN THOUGH WE PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY UP TO 96000 MILES.
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Nov 9, 2002
THE ROTORS ON THE FRONT WARP AND WE HAVE THEM RE-SURFACED AND THEY END UP WARPED AGAIN IN A MONTH OR TWO. AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALER, I WAS INFORMED OF A KIT TO REDUCE THE PRESSURE EXERTED ON THE ROTOR BUT THEY WANT THE CUSTOMER TO PAY FOR THE KIT. SO IF THEY HAVE A KIT TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A PROBLEM. DT

WHEN DRIVING AT 50 MPH, CONSUMER STATES IF YOU APPLY THE BRAKES THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIOLENTLY. THIS IS CAUSING CONSUMER TO LOOSE CONTROL. CONSUMER WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS AND CALIPERS. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. TS
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Oct 22, 2002
AT 35,350 MILES, EXPERIENCING A STRONG VIBRATION WHEN BRAKING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALSO HEARING EXCESSIVE SQUEAKING FROM BRAKES AT LOW SPEEDS. FRONT ROTORS NEED REPLACEMENT, BUT ONLY COVERED UNDER WARANTY FOR 1YR/12000MI. IF NOT REPLACED, RISKING FURTHER DETERIORATION OF BRAKING SYSTEM, HOWEVER DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS ISSUED NO RECALL ON THE SYSTEM. DT

CONSUMER STATES THAT THE ROTORS WORE OUT. DEALER NOTIFIED REPAIRED AND REPLACED 8 MONTHS LATER PROBLEM REOCCURRED. CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SHAKE. MR THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD VIBRATE VIOLENTLY WHENEVER BRAKES WERE APPLIED-NEW ROTORS INSTALLED, WHICH WERE SUPPOSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, AND A YEAR LATER THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN, MORE SEVERELY. THERE'S A SHIMMY IN THE FRONT WHEELS WHEN BRAKING-PER INVOICE. DIFFERENT SPECIALISTS HAVE RAISED THE ISSUE AND TRYING TO GET TO THE ROOT OF THE FRAME OUT OF ALIGNMENT. SCC
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Oct 14, 2002
AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHILE, IT WAS DRIVEN FOR ROUGHTLY 3,000 MILES BEFORE THE PROBLEM HAPPENED. I TOOK IT TO JEEP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AND THEY SAID THAT THE ROTORS WERE WARPED AND NEEDED TO BE RESURFACED. AFTER IT WAS FIXED AND DRIVEN IT WAS FINE UNTIL ABOUT ANOTHER 3000 MILES AND THE PROBLEM OCCURED AGAIN, SO IT TOOK IT TO JEEP TO COMPLAIN AND THEY JUST RESURFACED THE ROTORS AND IGNORED MY COMPLIANTS. AND AGAIN IT IS STILL RECURRING. WHEN YOU GO TO SLOW DOWN AT ANY SPEED THE CAR VIOLENTLY SHAKES B/C OF THE WARPED ROTORS AND IT MAKES IT HARD TO SLOW DOWN, ESPECAILLY AT HIGH SPEEDS. THIS PROBLEM REALLY INCREASES THE STOPPING TIME NECESSARY TO SLOW THE CAR. IF I HAD TO MAKE A QUICK STOP IT WOULD BE VERY HARD. IT IS OBVIOUSLY A MALFUNCTION AND JEEP IS IGNORING THE PROBLEM. I'VE TALKED TO SOME PEOPLE AND THEY SAY IT IS EITHER THE ROTORS THEY GIVE ARE BAD OR THEY WERE MOUNTED AT THE PLANT INCORRECTLY WHICH CAUSE THE ROTORS TO WARP. IT IS NOT MY DRIVING WHICH JEEP LIKES TO BLAME IT ON, AND I'M SURE MANY OTHER PEOPLE GET THE SAME RESPONSE FROM THEM. MR
