WE BOUGHT A 1999 GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED JEEP, ALL WHEEL DRIVE. AFTER MANY, MANY UNSUCCESSFUL REPAIRS, I AM STILL UNABLE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE DUE TO FRONT DRIVE TRAIN AS WELL I CAN?T HEAR MYSELF TALK DUE TO THE WHINING NOISE THE REAR END MAKES. I HAVE DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND THERE IS WEALTH OF WEB PAGES DEDICATED TO JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS. IT IS NO DOUBT A FACTORY YET THEY TURN A BLIND EYE. WE ARE LOOKING FOR A GROUP THAT HAS POSSIBLE FILED A CLASS ACTION SUITE, COULD YOU HELP US. WE DON?T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. *JB
WHEN DRIVING AT 50 MPH AND UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES VEHICLE SHOOK UNCONTROLLABLY, AND IT BECAME HARD TO CONTROL. BRAKE ROTORS HAVE BEEN GRINDED BY THE DEALER. THE CALIPERS WERE DEFECTIVE, AND THEY WERE NOT COVERED SINCE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED.*AK
THERE WAS A KNOCKING IN THE MOTOR UPON ARRIVING HOME. *JB
WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH THE CENTER PIN WITHIN THE TIE ROD GAVE AWAY AND THE CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN AND COME TO A STOP. DEALER CAN'T DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. *AK
CONSUMER WAS DRIVING AT 35 MPH WHEN VEHICLE WAS HIT ON THE RIGHT SIDE. VEHICLE SPINNED AROUND AND WAS HIT AGAIN HEAD-ON, AND THEN HIT AGAIN ON THE RIGHT SIDE. UPON IMPACT, DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG DIDN'T DEPLOY. *AK
THERE IS ALOT PULLING WITHIN THE SUSPENSION. ALSO, A LOT OF NOISE IS COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. CONSUMER THINKS TRANSMISSION IS FALLING OUT, AND THE VEHICLE STALLS. *AK
