I HAVE A 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE THAT JUST WILL NOT START. NOT A BATTERY PROBLEM. STARTED WITH WINDSHIELD WIPER PROBLEMS WHERE THE WIPERS JUST STAYED ERECT AND ONLY WORKED ON HIGH. THIS HAPPENED TWO TIMES 10/1/2010 AND 12/26/2010. ALWAYS STARTED WORKING AGAIN BEFORE I COULD SEE DEALER. ALWAYS HAPPENED WHEN EITHER RAIN OR SNOW WAS PRESENT CAUSING A DANGER OF COLLISION. ON MONDAY 2/28/2011 IT JUST WOULD NOT START. INTERIOR LIGHT LIT, COULD NOT SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL OR ANY OTHER GEAR. COULD NOT GET ANY HELP OR EVEN A CALL BACK FROM DEALER, AND TWO CORPORATE MANAGERS NEVER RETURNED MY CALL AS THEY PROMISED. WHEN I FINALLY SPOKE TO CORPERATE, BOTH CORPORATE MANAGERS WERE RUDE AND CONDESCENDING, DEALERS ALL GOING OUT OF BUSINESS LOCALLY IN NJ BUT NO WILL CONFIRM THAT. LOTS ARE EMPTY. I FOUND SERVICE IN ANOTHER COUNTY. HE FIXED IT. HE CLAIMS IT WAS A WIRE CONTROL MODULE AND MY KEY FOBS ALSO NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THESE ARE IDENTICAL PROBLEMS TO OTHER COMPLAINTS FILED. SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. I KNOW THREE OTHER PEOPLE HOW HAD A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE. ONE HAS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. *TR

WHILE STUCK ON ICE IN OUR DRIVEWAY, MY WIFE WAS CONCERNED ABOUT BACKING DOWN THE DRIVEWAY TO RETRY GETTING TO THE HOUSE, SHE HAD THE 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IN PARK, I WENT TO ASSIST IN BACKING DOWN THE DRIVEWAY, SHE HOPPED OVER THE CONSOLE AND HIT THE GEARSHIFT WITH HER LEG OR FOOT THE JEEP GEARSHIFT THEN WENT FROM PARK, INTO REVERSE WITHOUT THE BRAKE BEING DEPRESSED AS IS THE DESIGN, THE JEEP RAPIDLY WENT BACKWARDS THE OPEN DOOR "SCOOPING ME TOWARD THE UNDERSIDE OF THE JEEP, I WAS ABLE TO ROLL AWAY FROM THE JEEP, MY WIFE THEN GOT INTO THE DRIVER SEAT AND PUT INTO PARK JUST BEFORE CRASHING INTO THE WOODED AREA ALONG OUR DRIVEWAY. A CHECK OF THE INTERLOCK SYSTEM SHOWED IT WAS AND STILL IS NON WORKING. THIS INCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN MET WITH TRAGIC RESULTS HAD I NOT BEEN ABLE TO ROLL AWAY FROM THE UNDERSIDE OF THE MOVING JEEP, AND HAD MY WIFE BEEN UNABLE TO STOP THE JEEP WHEN SHE DID. AS A RESULT I HAVE SUSTAINED PAIN TO MY LOWER BACK, AND MY WIFE TO HER CERVICAL SPINE. *TR
