While driving at 30 mph, the vehicle stalled. When this occurred, the steering wheel locked up and the brakes failed to function. The dealership indicated that this was caused by an electrical system sensor failure. The consumer stated the engine light illuminated and apparently the problem was the oxygen sensor, also the monitor light on the dashboard blinked which indicated there was a rear lamp failure even though there was no failure.

Exhaust manifold is cracked on my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The problem seems to be common among Grand Cherokee owners. This is my third Grand Cherokee and this is the second that it has happened to. I never had the money to fix the other and sold it as is. Chrystler is admitting that the design is a failure when the replacement part has been redesigned. The Jeep service departments and other muffler repair shops notice the cracked mainifold as a common defalt and have made this repair many times. When I purchased the 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I had no plans for a built in cost of this magnitude (dealer cost approx. $1200). I have not reserved this dollar amount to repair the Jeep in my budget and will have to live with the noise and poor performance or find an alternative way to fix it. It is my opion that the design was not sufficienctly tested for wear and should be replaced by Chrysler. I have searched for recalls and class action law suits with no success. Please provide any information that maybe helpful in providing assistance or retribution for repairs. If the research were conducted the results would more than likely show that a great precentage of Grand Cherokee's have suffered from this cracked exhaust.
