1993 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Service Brakes, Hydraulic Problems

WHILE APPLYING BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP ON ITS OWN. DRIVER WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AND PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER. DRIVER HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER, AND MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE LEFT AND RIGHT REAR ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *AK

MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT I HAVE A PAINT PEELING PROBLEM ON THE HOOD OF MY CAR. ORIGINALLY I JUST THOUGHT THAT IT WAS MY CAR BUT THERE ARE 2 OTHER PEOPLE IN MY OFFICE BUILDING WITH THE SAME COLOR, YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AS MY CAR AND WE ALL HAVE THE PAINT PEELING PROBLEM IN THE SAME AREAS.

COMPRESSOR WORKS BUT AC EVAPORATEUR FREEZES UP. BRAKES HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE ROTORS. PAINT PEELS ON PASSENGER DOOR AND ROOF.

WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH LEFT FRONT HUB SEPARATED FROM ROTOR, CAUSING EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE, AND VEHICLE PULLED TO THE RIGHT. CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL 98V-005 INITIALLY COVERING CERTAIN MODELS FROM 1990-1993. RECALL WAS LATER EXTENDED TO COVER 1994-1995 JEEPS. ONLY 16 STATES WERE COVERED INCLUDING MD, NJ AN PA, ALL OF WHICH BORDER DE WHICH WAS NOT INCLUDED. *AK

BRAKES LOCKED UP ON MY WIFE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC (2 POLICE OFFICERS WITNESSED THE LOCK-UP SINCE SHE WAS BLOCKING TRAFFIC). THE OFFICERS CALLED A WRECKER, BUT SHE TURNED THE KEY ON AND OFF A FEW TIMES AND THE BRAKES RELEASED. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL DEALER, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I SEARCHED OTHER COMPLAINTS ON NHTSA'S WEBSITE AND FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF BRAKE LOCK-UP ON THIS MODEL. I ALSO HAVE INVESTIGATED AN ASE WEBSITE THAT INDICATES SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I WORRY ABOUT MY WIFE AND 10 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER'S SAFETY IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN THAT MAKES IT PRONE TO LOCK-UP THE BRAKES. I WOULD JUST ASK THAT IT BE LOOKED INTO BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT.*AK

ABS LIGHT STAYS ON, BRAKE PEDAL KICKS BACK WHEN APPLYING BRAKE, THERE IS A LOUD NOISE, AND STEERING MAKES NOISE TOO. NUMEROUS TIMES TO DEALER , CANNOT REMEDY. ALSO, VEHICLE STALLS AT LOW SPEED WHEN IN REVERSE. *AK

#1- CONCERNING RUSTED ROTORS. (RECALL 98V005000/FRONT BRAKE ROTORS). WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED 9-16-97. SHORTLY THEREAFTER WE DISCOVERED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD COROSION/RUSTED ROTORS. WE WERE INFORMED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, THAT THE RUSTED ROTORS WERE NOT COVERED BY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WE PURCHASED. THAT WAS 4/98. SEPTEMBER OF 2000 I DISCOVERED THE RECALL WHILE DOING SOME RESEARCH. THIS TIME I CONTACTED BOBETTE THOMAS AT JIM MARSH SERVICE ABOUT THE RUSTED ROTARS. SHE TOOK THE INFORMATION AND CALLED ME BACK LATER THAT DAY. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL DID NOT AFFECT MY VEHICLE. WE PURCHASED IT USED AND DO NOT KNOW WHERE IT ORIGINATED. WE BELIEVE THE RUSTED ROTARS ARE A PRODUCT OF IMPROPER MANUFACTURING PROCESSES. I AM REQUESTING THAT JEEP REPAIR OR REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PARTS AND HONOR THE RECALL. #2 SINCE PURCHASING THIS USED VEHICLE WE HAVE HAD REPEATED FUEL INJECTOR PROBLEMS. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO BE SERVICED FOR FUEL ODORS ON 8 DIFFERENT OCCASSIONS IN THE PAST 3 YEARS. ON THREE OF THOSE OCCASSIONS WE WERE TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG. YET THE SMELL CONTINUED. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE'S FUEL INJECTOR SYSTEM. AGAIN MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING INTERMITANT FUEL ODORS. IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND WE A FAILURE RATE AS EXTENSIVE AS OURS HAS BEEN IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I BELIEVE HAD THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM THAT IS CAUSING THIS REPEATED FAILURE, BEEN DIAGNOSED WHEN INITIALLY TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP OUR WARRANTY WOULD HAVE RESOLVED THE ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE THIS PROBLEM ADDRESSED IN IT'S ENTIRETY. #3 REAR HATCHBACK DOORLOCKS AND LATCH. 1-12-98 I REPORTED A LOCK PROBLEM AND THE CLOSURE PROBLEMS I HAD BEEN HAVING. ALTHOUGH I WAS GIVEN A NEW KEYLESS ENTRY REMOTE. THE REAR HATCH HAS NEVER CLOSED OR LOCKED 100% OF THE TIME. I RECENTLY DISCOVERED THIS PART IS ALSO UNDER RECALL. I WOULD LIKE JEEP TO REPAIR OR REPLACE THE PARTS IN QUESTION. #4 FRONT AXLE VIBRATION LISTED ON DUE BILL. NEVER CORRECTED.*AK

THE PARTS DIDN'T FAIL. I NOTICES DENTS IN THE SLIDE GROVES FOR THE FRONT BRAKE PADS. WAS CONCERNED THE PADS COULD STICK IN A HEAVY BREAKING SITUATION. IT IS APPARENT THAT THE DENTS COULD STOP THE MOVEMENT OF THE PADS WHEN BREAKING. THIS WAS NOTICED WHEN THE FIRST BRAKE CHANGE WAS DONE, AND JEEP SAID IT WASN'T A PROBLEM. THIS COULD BE BECAUSE OF THE COST OF CHANGING THE KNUCKE JOINT. IF YOU NEED ANY MORE INFORMATION FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME. THANK YOU. *AK

CORROSION OF FRONT ROTORS HAS CAUSED DEEP PITS. THESE PITS HAVE CAUSED INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE. THERE IS A CURRENT CHRYSLER RECALL #747 THAT DEALS WITH THE PITTING, BUT OUR VEHICLE DOES NOT MEET THE EXACT GUIDELINES. THE GUIDELINES ARE FOR A RECALL ON ALL VEHICLES SOLD OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN CERTAIN STATES THAT APPLY HEAVY ROAD SALT. OUR VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT IN IA AND IS NOW REGISTERED IN MN. THESE STATES ARE NOT ON THE HEAVY ROAD SALT USE LIST. HOWEVER, WE CONTEND THAT THE RECALL APPLIES TO US BECAUSE THIS VEHICLE WAS REGISTERED FOR OVER 3 YEARS IN IL AND OH, WHERE THE RECALL DOES APPLY. CHRYSLER IS DECLINING ASSISTANCE. WE WILL PURSUE THIS ISSUE UNTIL CHRYSLER CORRECTS THE PROBLEM.

THE ENTIRE CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY WITH LOUD. HORRIBLE VIBRATION SOUNDS WHEN GOING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY WHICH IS ON A MODERATE GRADE. IT IS MOST PRONOUNCED THE FIRST TIME I DRIVE THE CAR ON A DAY FOLLOWING A RAIN FALL WHEN MY CAR HAS BEEN PARKED IN MY GARAGE OVERNIGHT. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE,IN MY DRIVEWAY, THE CAR SHARPLY SWERVES TO THE LEFT. BRAKES HAVE FAILED ENTIRELY WHILE IN 4-WHEEL DRIVE IN SNOW 2-3 INCHES DEEP @ 5-10 MPH. BRAKES HAVE LOCKED REPEATEDLY AFTER GOING THROUGH A CAR WASH. I HAVE BEEN TOLD REPEATEDLY BY THE DEALER THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR ABS AND THEY HAVE GIVEN ME TIPS RE: PUTTING THE CAR IN LOW GEAR AND USING MY PARKING BRAKE WHEN CAR STARTS TO SHAKE AND SKID WHILE GOING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY. A NUMBER OF TIMES, WHILE RAINING, WHEN I HAVE PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE TO STOP, ON LEVEL GROUND, AT 10-15MPH, THE BRAKES HAVE GRABBED VIOLENTLY. ONCE,IN A SHOPPING CENTER PARKING LOT THIS CAUSED MY SON TO HIT HIS HEAD ON THE DASHBOARD WHILE HE WAS FASTENING HIS SEAT BELT. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT I NEEDED TO LEARN TO DRIVE DIFFERENTLY WITH ABS, THAT IT WAS A USER PROBLEM, NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. DURING DRY MONTHS IN CALIFORNIA I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES. I DREAD THE RAINY SEASONS AND HAVE EVEN CONSIDERED SELLING MY HOUSE BECAUSE THE JEEP SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT I WOULDN'T BE HAVING ANY OF THESE PROBLEMS IF I DIDN'T HAVE A "STEEP DRIVEWAY." MY KIDS HAVE BEEN WITH ME A FEW TIMES WHEN THE HORRIBLE NOISE, SKIDDING AND SHAKING HAVE OCCURRED AND THEY WERE SCARED TO DEATH. MY SON ATTEMPTED TO JUMP OUT OF THE CAR ONCE, IN THE DRIVEWAY, BECAUSE HE THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO CRASH. I HAVE SAVED ALL OF MY SERVICE RECORDS FROM THE DEALER BUT A COUPLE OF TIMES THEY DID NOT ENTER MY BRAKE COMPLAINTS INTO THE COMPUTER, JUST THE NORMAL SERVICE I WAS HAVING DONE AT THE TIME. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR IN FOR THE BRAKE PROBLEM IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS BECAUSE THE DEALER HAS CONVINCED ME THAT THE 1993 GJC HAS NO HISTORY OF AN ABS PROBLEM, THAT I AM "THE PROBLEM."

ALTERNATOR/BRAKING SYSTEM/WINDOW WIRING, MOTOR MOUNTS FAILED. HAD TO BE REPLACED. THESE FAILURES COULD RESULT IN A CRASH. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ON FIVE DIFFERENT TIMES (SINCE 1993) FAILED TO WORK PROPERLY. WE NOTICED THE PROBLEM SINCE WE OWNED THE CAR. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY BUT THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG.THIS PROBLEM OCCURS VERY RARELY BUT IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR SERIOUS INJURY. THIS PAST DECEMBER (12/28/98), ON A RAINY DAY, I WAS DRIVING AT 30 MILE PER HOUR AND AS I WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN AT AN INTERSECTION I STARTED TO BRAKE, I HEARD THE NOISE OF THE ABS SYSTEM. WHEN I REACHED THE SIGN I HAD MY FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN AND THE CAR FAILED TO STOP. I PROCEEDED AGAINST MY WILL AND FINALLY THE CAR STOPPED PAST THE INTERSECTION. FORTUNATELY NO OTHER CAR WAS AT THE INTERSECTION OR NO PEOPLE WERE CROSSING BECAUSE I COULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS INJURIES TO MYSELF OR SOMEBODY ELSE. WE CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT. AT THE DEALER ASKING IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON OUR BRAKE SYSTEM OR IF OTHER OWNERS OF '93 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE COMPLAINED ABOUT THEIR ABS BRAKE SYSTEM BUT THEY SAID NO. WE DIDN'T TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER BACAUSE THEY FAILED TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG THE PREVIOUS TIMES.AS A RESULT OF THAT SCARY EVENT WE DISABLED THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM. I ALSO OWNED A '95 DODGE RAM PICK-UP TRUCK WITH ABS BRAKES SO I'M FAMILIAR WITH THIS KIND OF BRAKES AND THEIR OPERATION. THE BRAKES ON THE GRAND CHEROKEE BEHAVED ERRACTICLY SINCE THE BEGINNING. THAT NEVER HAPPENED WITH THE DODGE RAM. IF OTHER JEEPS FROM 1993 HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM CHRYSLER SHOULD RECALL THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM AND REPLACE THEM AT THEIR EXPENSES AND PEOPLE SHOULD BE WARNED OF THE DANGER.

CONSUMER EXPRIENCING ONGOING PROBLEM WITH ERRATIC OPERATION. WHENEVER VEHICLE COMES TO A STOP, IT APPEARS TO STALL. ALSO, WHENEVER BRAKES ARE APPLIED IT WOULD APPEAR TO ACCELERATE AT AN HIGH RMP, AND VEHICLE WOULD LOSE SPEED WHILE DRIVING . VEHICLE BEEN INSPECTED/REPIRED BY DEALER, AND CONDITION STILL OCCURRING. *AK

WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED AND APPLYING THE BRAKES THERE IS A VERY LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE BRAKES. CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY CAN'T DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. *AK

BRAKE ROTORS FAILED CAUSING COMPLETE BRAKE LOSS PRIOR TO RECALL NOTICE HOWEVER DEALERSHIP WILL NOT HONOR RECALL REPAIR WORK.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS EVER SINCE I REPLACED MY BRAKES PADS AT SPEED JEEP EAGLE DEALER # 718-377-5110. THE ABS LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKES THERE'S NO PRESSURE THE BRAKE PEDAL DOES NOT SPRING BACKUP UP AND THE ABS LIGHTS STAYS ON. THE DEARLER SHOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS DEFECT WITH THE ABS SYSTEM. THE DEARLER HAS NOT BEE COOPERATIVE WITH ME, AND WOULD NOT REFUND ME THE MONEY I HAVE SPENT TRYING TO FIX THIS ABS PROBLEM. THEY JUST WANT ME TO SPEND MORE MONEY ON TRYING TO GET IT FIX. I HAVE AREADY SPEND ABOUT $1,200. ON THIS BRAKE PROBLEMS. THIS SUMMER I WAS NOT ABLE TO DRIVE MY JEEP. BECUASE I CAN NOT STOP PROPERLY , AND I'M SCARE I MIGHT CAUSE AN ACIDENT. A FRIEND TOLD ME ABOUT THE THE ABS PROBLEM WITH CHRSYLER, AND SUGGESTED I CHECKED THE WEB.. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE DARLY ROMAIN
