I JUST BOUGHT A 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED 5.7L HEMI AND AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE HAD SNAPPED OFF SO THAT YOU ARE UNABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLE IS CRACKED, BUT NOT COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF YET. THERE IS SOME SPIDER CRACKING ON THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE HANDLE AS WELL. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, I REALIZED THAT IT'S NOT A PART THAT CAN JUST BE REPLACED, IT MUST BE REPLACED BY JEEP AND CAN COST UPWARDS OF $3,000. I SEE THIS AS A VERY URGENT SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IF I GET IN A CAR WREAK OR THERE IS A FIRE, MY PASSENGERS AND I WOULD HAVE TROUBLE EXITING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY JEEP AND SOON BEFORE THIS TAKES A TRAGIC TURN. *TR

THE 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HAS A VERY FLAWED INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE. THE PLASTIC MOLDING OF THE INTERIOR DOOR TRIM PANEL IS COMPOSED OF COMPOSITE MATERIAL THAT IS SUSCEPTIBLE CRACKING AND BREAKING, AT THE FOCAL POINT FROM WHICH THE DOOR HANDLE IS LOCATED. ALL FOUR OF OUR INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES ARE BROKEN, RENDERING OUR ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE FROM AN ACCIDENT THRU THE USE OF OUR WINDOWS OR WINDSHIELDS. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I'VE DISCOVERED THAT THIS A COMMON THEME FOR THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE: HTTP://WWW.JEEPFORUM.COM/FORUM/F67/2005-BROKEN-INTERIOR-DOOR-HANDLES-1132403/ HTTP://WWW.DENLORSTOOLS.COM/AUTOBLOG/2010/11/JEEP-GRAND-CHEROKEE-INTERIOR-DOOR-HANDLE-BROKEN-RECALL/HTTP://WWW.JEEPSUNLIMITED.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?511563-BROKEN-REAR-INSIDE-DOOR-HANDLE-ANY-EXPERIENCES HTTP://TOWNHALL-TALK.EDMUNDS.COM/DIRECT/VIEW/.F16A9E4/88 HTTP://WWW.JEEPGARAGE.ORG/F5/2005-WK-LIMITED-WITH-BROKEN-INTERIOR-DOOR-PANELS-5834.HTML JUST TO NAME A FEW FROM A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH. I FIND HIGHLY IRRESPONSIBLE FOR A CORPORATION SUCH AS CHRYSLER TO NOT TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THE FAILURE OF THEIR VEHICLES DESIGN. SO I AM BEGGING YOU IS THERE ANYTHING THAT I CAN DO TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION? I HONESTLY DO BELIEVE THAT MY FIANCE'S JEEP IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE IF SHE IS EVER INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, SHE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE IN TIME. AFTER CONTACTING MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP I WAS ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED FROM THE SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM.TO REPLACE THE BROKEN DOOR HANDLE ON THE VEHICLE, YOU MUST REPLACE THE ENTIRE INTERIOR DOOR TRIM PANEL. COSTS: FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS- $947.00 EACH; REAR PASSENGER DOORS- $640 EACH. *TR

MY DOOR HANDLES ON 4 OF MY DOORS (NOT ONE OR TWO BUT FOUR) ON THE INSIDE HAVE CRACKED, SOME CRACKED WHERE ONE IS UNABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE WHICH NOW MAKES THIS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE PLASTIC IN THE DOORS ARE SO BRITTLE THAT ANY FORCE CAN CAUSE THE HANDLE TO BREAK. I HAVE APPROACHED JEEP ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THEY DO NOT EVEN LISTEN TO MY COMPLAINT AND SAID I JUST HAD TO BUY A NEW REPLACEMENT DOOR PANEL. A DOOR PANEL TO REPLACE A FAULTY DOOR HANDLE IS QUITE UNACCEPTABLE AND NOT A LOGICAL EXCUSE FOR THEIR BAD AND VERY CHEAP PRODUCT. YOU PAY GOOD MONEY TO STAY WITH AN AMERICAN VEHICLE BUT WITH EXCUSES LIKE THIS MAKE ME WANT TO BUY FOREIGN.SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE AS I HAVE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE TO FIND MANY PEOPLE IN MY SAME SITUATION... *TR

THEY DENY THERE IS A PROBLEM ON MY VEHICLE, BUT ACCEPT THAT THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM EXISTS ON THE 2014 MODEL? THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR WHICH CHRYSLER SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.

ALL FOUR DOOR HANDLES ARE COMING APART AND ONE IS COMPLETELY BROKE. IF THERE IS AN EMERGENCY, NOONE WILL BE ABLE TO GET OUT IF THE WINDOWS HAVE BEEN DAMAGED. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF CHEROKEE AND COMMANDER OWNERS FACING THIS SAME SITUATION. THIS IS A SEVERE AND LIFE-THREATENING SAFETY ISSUE AND CHRYSLER JEEP REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR USING CHEAP MATERIAL THAT LITERALLY DISINTEGRATES ON ITS OWN. THEIR PRICE FOR FIXING THIS DEFECT IS $700-$900 PER DOOR AND THEY ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO COVER ANY PORTION OF IT. IF A COMPANY FREELY DECIDES TO USE INFERIOR MATERIALS JUST TO MAKE MORE PROFIT, THIS CREATES SAFETY ISSUES, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN AND INFANTS, THEN THEY MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS REPAIRS AT NO COST TO THE OWNER. *TR
This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, drivers should adjust their seat to allow clearance between the driver's knee and the ignition key, and remove all items from their key ring, leaving only the vehicle key. Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured February 11, 2004, to July 5, 2007, and 2006-2007 Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured January 31, 2005, to July 5, 2007. In the affected vehicles, the driver may accidentally hit the ignition key with their knee, unintentionally knocking the key out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the ignition key inadvertently moves into the OFF or ACCESSORY position, the engine will turn off, which will then depower various key safety systems including but not limited to air bags, power steering, and power braking. Loss of functionality of these systems may increase the risk of crash and/or increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition switch, free of charge. Chrysler sent interim notifications to owners in September 2014. The recall began on October 9, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P41.
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured February 11, 2004, through March 9, 2010; and 2006-2010 Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured January 31, 2005, through March 10, 2010. A transfer case electrical failure may result in an unintentional shifting of the transfer case into the neutral position.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the vehicle shifts into neutral, it may roll away increasing the risk of a crash or personal injury.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the final drive controller which governs the transfer case, with new software, free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2013. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753. Chrysler's recall campaign number is N23.

ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 3.7L ENGINES AND NAG1 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS, THE AIR CONDITIONER EVAPORATOR CONDENSATE WATER MAY ENTER THE TRANSMISSION AT THE FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL. THIS CAN RESULT IN SHUDDER DURING TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH ENGAGEMENT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IT CAN LEAD TO INCREASED TRANSMISSION OPERATING TEMPERATURES, BOILING OF THE WATER, AND A SUBSEQUENT PURGING OF TRANSMISSION FLUID INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN AN UNDERHOOD FIRE.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE TRANSMISSION FOR LEAKAGE AT THE FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL. IF NO LEAK IS DETECTED, A NEW FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL AND WATER DEFLECTOR SHIELD WILL BE INSTALLED, AND PROPER ALIGNMENT OF THE FILL TUBE VERIFIED. IF THE PRESENCE OF A LEAK IS DETECTED, THE VEHICLE WILL BE EVALUATED FOR SHUDDER DURING TORQUE CONVERTER ENGAGEMENT. IF NO SHUDDER IS DETECTED, THE TRANSMISSION WILL BE TRIPLE FLUSHED, AND NEW FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL AND WATER DEFLECTOR WILL BE INSTALLED AND PROPER ALIGNMENT OF THE FILL TUBE VERIFIED. IF SHUDDER IS DETECTED, THE TORQUE CONVERTER WILL BE REPLACED, A NEW FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL AND WATER DEFLECTOR WILL BE INSTALLED, AND PROPER ALIGNMENT OF THE FILL TUBE VERIFIED. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 31, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.
