Vehicle jumped gears from park to reverse, causing automatic locking system to engage, and the front driver's side door to break away at hinges. Consumer was parked on a slight incline. Dealer was not contacted.
Hinges on driver's door are cracking and will need to be replaced. Consumer states when door was made it did not align properly, the manufactureer put shims on some doors to make them align properly, the door is cracking, and consumer had them welded, however the cracking will just get larger and cause the door to not lock or close, door will need to be replaced.
The fuel gage does not properly indicate the amount of fuel in the tank. The electrical system shorts frequently, locking and unlocking the doors, opening and shutting windows by itself. The alarm system also shorts frequently, doing the same thing.
I sent a detailed letter to daimler Chrysler after being refused by dealer. They only refunded my money for the cost of the front rotors. They would not reimburse me for the labor charges. I can't understand how they can do that when I had them replaced before the recall. That should show there is a problem. I wrote about all my problems with this "lemon" but I could not claim it was a lemon because I was leasing it at the time and in pa, a vehicle can only be declared a "lemon" when it is purchased, not leased. Very dissatisfied with daimler/Chrysler because they simply washed their hands of the entire problem. I have other problems to report, along with the receipts to prove they were investigated but nothing was ever done to correct the problems. Please contact me to forward all receipts proving complaints before warranty expired. Thank you
Air bag light comes on, door locks cycle and windows will not operate. The onboard computer records the fault. This has occured many times over the last 28,000 miles. The dealer has replaced most of the air bag elements twice and the door lock switches. The Jeep has been to the dealer 9 times, worked on for 59 days, driven by the dealer 1141 plus miles and the failure observed by the dealer. The failure still exists.
1) differential ring & pinion gear failing. Causes significant pulsation/vibration, most severe at 50-70 mph. Has worsened over past month. Awaiting replacement (2) while accelerating, transmission shifts back and forth btwn 1st and 2nd 2-3 times times before finally settling into 2nd. (3) 4WD transfer case very hard to get into full time 4WD. Also, very hard to get out of any 4WD mode (back to 2wd). Indicator shows 2wd mode when truck still in 4-wd, requires violent reversing to get out of 4WD. (4) left rear door interior vinyl panel has come apart twice, repaired both times.
Sunroof rusted out- replaced by dealer, automatic door locks failed and vinyl paneling peeled- both thing replaced by dealer. Check engine light came on for no reason- sensor replaced twice by dealer.
