I RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO AND HAVING DONE HOURS OF RESEARCH I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS MANY OTHER JEEP OWNERS. MY ALARM IS FAULTY AND OFTEN DOES NOT START, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE VEHICLE IN OVER A WEEK. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING JEEP TOLD ME TO DO TO OVERRIDE ALARM, IT DOES NOT WORK.

I HAVE BEEN GETTING THE RUN AROUND FORM CUSTOMER SERVICE AT CHRYSLER. I HAVE A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE,AND WAS PLANNING ON BUYING ANOTHER. BUT>>> COMMENTS: --------- MY 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE WITH A 4L ENGINE STALLS WHEN TURNING LEFT IF THE FUEL LEVEL IN THE TANK IS BELOW 1/4. THE VIN NUMBER IS; [XXX] THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, AND COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF I AM NOT ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. LAST WEEK I HAD THE LOCAL DEALER CHECK THE VEHICLE. THEY SAID IF IT WERE THE SENSING UNIT IN THE GAS TANK, IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER A RECALL. THEY SAID IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP ITSELF, NOT THE SENSOR, AND THEREFORE, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY AROUND $1000.00 TO HAVE THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE PUMP, THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE PICKUP DEVICE WHENTHE TANK LEVEL DROPS BELOW 1/4, AND THIS HAPPENS OVER A PERIOD OF TIME. I HAVE CHECKED SEVERAL WEB SITES AND FOUND QUITE A NUMBER OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME SITUATION. I CALLED CHRYSLER TODAY AT 1-800-992-1997 AND WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO SPEAK WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 1-800-853-1403. WHEN I CALLED THIS NUMBER I SPOKE TO A REPRESENTATIVE AND I EXPLAINED WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE WAS TOO OLD FOR THEM TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I ASKED TO SPEAK TO HIS SUPERIOR, AND WAS DENIED A NAME. WHEN I ASKED FOR A NAME, SHE ASKED "IS ANYTHING ELSE I CAN HELP YOU WITH AND TOLD ME THANKS FOR CALLING. THIS IS NOT AN ANOMALY WITH MY 2000 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, ACCORDING TO THE SITES I VISITED, THIS OCCURS FROM 95 AND ON INTO THE 2000 (S) JEEP. THE JEEP DIED ON MY ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AT 1/4 TANK AND I COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE WAS OF TRAFFIC IN SPEEDS OF 70+MPH. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE GETTING MY VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD.
