- 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Broken Door Handles - After contacting Jeep at 1-800-521-9922 and filing a case for a broken driver's door handle/panel, they are stepping up and doing the right thing (initially, they declined my claim with my 100,000 mile 7 year maximum care upgrade extended warranty on my 80,000 + mile 2005 5.7 hemi grand cherokee, stating that it could be "wear and tear or possible abuse"). After I took a myriad of complaints from the NHTSA website http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/complaints/index.cfm – click “search selected typeâ€, select year, 2005, select make JEEP, select model—GRAND CHEROKEE, click "Select this check box if you would like to see a full summary output on the search result page. Otherwise, the summary for each case will be available as a linkâ€-- to the dealer. The dealer called Jeep, and as a result, Jeep are paying for the repair with a $50.00 co-pay. Unfortunately, the driver's front door panel is on national back order. The more people who complain, the better the result will be. http://www.denlorstools.com/autoblog/2010/11/jeep-grand-cherokee-interior-door-handle-broken-recall/comment-page-1/#comment-8061

As you can see in the photos 3 of the interior door handles are broken. If you look close you can see how flimsy they are made. The handle on the rear left side will not open the door. I think these pose a real safety hazard in an emergency. Jeep should RECALL and fix all that are still in service. This cheap item ruins the JEEP's reputation as a sturdy-rugged vehicle.
