This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Component (diode) on 60 pin PCM has a short causing injector number 6 to stick wide open. Result is a cylinder compressing fuel which can lead to explosion, also raw fuel escaping out of the tail pipe and large amounts of smoke. Gasoline pulls the oil off of cylinder wall causing excessive friction and engine damage along with catalytic converter damage. If rear ended when injector is sticking open could cause explosion or fire! I have confirmed this on 3 other 93-95 Grand Cherokee obd I models as well. Jeep was idling near someone welding and the injector stuck open and started a fire. Fire was exstinguished immediately with dirt and water. No physical damages occurred just a scare. I moved injector 6 plug to 8, then 8 stuck open, upon putting pressure on the computer connector I realized the injector would operate normally again. Been happening for months, just now found the root cause. Will upload pics later if it will let me. I can set fire to the ground where the tailpipe is when injector is stuck open.
The contact owns a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee. When trying to shut the vehicle off, the key was unable to be removed from the ignition switch. The failure occurred on several occasions. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the failure was unable to be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000. The VIN was not available.
My 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited 4X4 keeps stalling all the time. Rough idle when started and check engine light comes on all the time. Also, alarm is defective and flashes the exterior lights and honks the horn anytime any of the doors are opened or closed and the power lock button is pushed to lock or unlock. The engine temperature gauge doesn't even show a reading and the factory infinity gold cd radio turns on but no sound. My Jeep has a warranty on it right now and these problems have been ongoing since 2/25/06. I've had my Jeep to the original dealer where I got it, which has ase certified techs, and also to two authorized Jeep dealerships with no resolution to any of these problems and to date have been charged over $450 between the three dealerships. I have sent now two E-mails to the Chrysler group customer assistance center and the first E-mail I received back brought up two recalls: #747 disc brake rotors #B02 floor shifter secondary system and the second E-mail I got back from Chrysler still had no information about the stalling and/or rough idle. This is entirely unacceptable as I have not been able to use the vehicle for quite some time now because of danger to me or others if it would stall while driving, the financial drain and the sheer unreliability. I would like a resolution to this as soon as possible.
