2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Electrical System Problems

I currently own 3 of the same vehicles myself, my husband and my son. Each of the vehicles have been experiencing electrical issues. I have taken all of the vehicles at some point back to the mechanic for repairs for this issue. It was only a temporary fix. Here are examples of some of the electrical issues. The blinkers and break lights may go out and not work while we are driving and some days they work just fine. But it has now become a safety hazard because we never know when they will work and are afraid to be hit by another car from the rear. Another example is when I am driving down the street all of the sudden the windows will automatically roll down by themselves. These issues have put all of our safety at risk, especially while we are driving in high traffic areas such as Atlanta, Georgia. The problem was acessed by our auto mechanic on all three (3) vehicles. They are are 1999-2000, 2001 & 2002 Grand Cherokee one of the vehicles is a limited edition. There are no warning signs or symptoms and the check engine light is not on any of the vehicles.

I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM A MONTH OR SO AGO ABOUT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT BREAKING AND BREAKING OFF THE VEHICLE FRAME. PLUS THE A/C ISSUE UNDER THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT OVERHEATS AND MELTS THE MECHANISM AND CONTINUES TO BURN. WHEN I REPORTED THE ISSUE, NO WRECK WAS INVOLVED. SINCE REPORTING THE PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND TOTALED. MY FIX APPARENTLY ALLOWED THE SEAT TO STAY ON THE FRAME BUT THE SEAT STILL BROKE. FORTUNATELY, NO SERIOUS INJURY, ONLY SORE NECK AND BUMP TO THE HAND.

DRIVER'S SEAT DETACHES FROM CAR FRAME. ELECTRICAL BLOWER MODULE RESISTOR OVERHEATS, MELTS, AND BURNS. BOTH ISSUES ARE KNOWN BY CONSUMERS AND DEALERSHIPS, SO THERE IS NO WAY JEEP/CHRYSLER DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THE DESIGN FLAWS AND THE DANGER. DRIVER'S SEAT: THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF CHATTER ON THE INTERNET REGARDING THE DRIVER'S SEAT DETACHMENT FROM THE CAR FRAME AND THE REASON FOR IT. PEOPLE HAVE CREATED VARIOUS FIXES THAT MAY OR MAY NOT WORK WELL. AS ADDED PROOF, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DRIVER'S SEAT IN ANY JUNK YARD. PLEASE GO LOOK FOR YOURSELF. MINE TOTALLY BROKE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, NEARLY CAUSING A WRECK. IT'S TERRIBLE AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL AND SOMEONE HELD CRIMINALLY LIABLE FOR THIS. BLOWER MOTOR MODULE: LOTS OF CHATTER ON THE INTERNET AS WELL AS TO THE PROBLEM AND THE CAUSE. MINE MELTED AND BECAME SO HOT THAT I COULDN'T TOUCH IT WITHOUT BURNING MY HAND - WHICH I DID. THERE IS A FIX, BUT YOU HAVE TO BUY AN UPGRADE MODULE WHICH STILL GETS HOT. ALSO, THE MODULE TURNS THE BLOWER IN REVERSE, SO YOU HAVE TO REVERSE THE LEADS. IT'S DANGEROUS AND AGAIN, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON IT EITHER AND SOMEONE HELD CRIMINALLY LIABLE.

WIRES GET HOT THAT LEAD TO THE HEATER/AC FAN. THE INSULATION OF WIRE AND CONNECTOR MELTS. THIS CAUSES THE HEATER TO GO OFF AND BACK ON INTERMITTENTLY AND FREQUENTLY UNLESS YOU WIGGLE THE WIRES. WIGGLING THE CONNECTOR WILL HELP FOR SHORT PERIODS OF TIME. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING(DOES NOT HAVE TO BE MOVING) AND THE BLOWER IS ON. I HAVE TRIED TO PRESS IN THE CONNECTOR OR WIGGLE THE CONNECTOR WHILE DRIVING AND THIS IS A DISTRACTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED CONSISTENTLY BEGINNING ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE LOCATION OF THE CONNECTOR IS UNDER THE GLOVE BOX AREA. THERE ARE MANY INSTANCES ON THE INTERNET THAT DISCUSS THIS ISSUE.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND KEPT STALLING ON HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS. ANOTHER COMPUTER WAS INSTALLED BUT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE THROTTLE POSITION, IDLE AIR CONTROL, AND MAP SENSORS WERE REPLACED. VEHICLE HAD HARD START PROBLEM AND THE FUEL INJECTORS AND FUEL FILTER WERE REPLACED. STARTED VEHICLE IN DRIVEWAY AND HEARD POPPING NOISES AND IT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT DOWN. THE COLI PACK HAD TO BE REPLACED. NUMEROUS VACUUM HOSES HAVE POPPED OFF DURING DRIVING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. NO ERROR CODES OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON EVEN THOUGH THESE THINGS WERE HAPPENING. A YEAR AGO THE OIL PRESSURE SENDING UNIT HAD TO BE REPLACED AND HAS CURRENTLY GONE BAD AGAIN.

THERE WOULD BE MORE MILES ON IT IF PROBLEMS WOULD STOP OCCURRING WITH THESE VEHICLES AND PREVENTING PEOPLE FROM DRIVING. I PUT THE DATE WHEN IT STARTED IN 2012, BUT CONSTANT PROBLEMS ARE STILL CONTINUING TO THIS DATE AND YEAR OF 2015.

THE HEATER ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ONLY WORKS APPROX. 25% OF THE TIME. THE PERSON I PURCHASED IT FROM SAID IT ONLY HAPPENED TO HER EVERY SO OFTEN, BUT THAT IT HAD GOTTEN WORSE. SINCE I'VE OWNED IT, IT HAS CONTINUED TO GET PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. I'M CONCERNED AS WINTER IS APPROACHING AND I'LL NEED TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD AND WILL NEED A HEAT DEFROSTER FOR IT LIVING HERE IN NEBRASKA. THIS IS A LONG KNOWN PROBLEM AND I'M SHOCKED THAT CHRYSLER HAS NOT RECALLED THIS PROBLEM AS IT POSES MAJOR SAFETY IMPLICATIONS. I'VE WORKED ON CARS FOR 15 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A HEATER GOING BAD. AS ANY MECHANIC OUT THERE, HEATERS DON'T GO BAD UNLESS THE WHOLE HEATER CORE IS BAD, IN WHICH CASE I'D HAVE A FLOOR FULL OF ANTI-FREEZE, WHICH I DO NOT HAVE. MY JEEP HAS NOT LOST AN OUNCE OF FLUID AND RUNS AT PERFECT OPERATING TEMPERATURE. IT'S AN OBVIOUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT JEEP SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR! THERE ARE NUMEROUS POSTS ON NUMEROUS FORMS WITH HOARDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT JEEP IS CHARGING $1500 TO FIX. TALK ABOUT A SCAM!!! *TR

THE HEATER ON MY 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ONLY WORKS APPROX. 25% OF THE TIME. THE PERSON I PURCHASED IT FROM SAID IT ONLY HAPPENED TO HER EVERY SO OFTEN, BUT THAT IT HAD GOTTEN WORSE. SINCE I'VE OWNED IT, IT HAS CONTINUED TO GET PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. I'M CONCERNED AS WINTER IS APPROACHING AND I'LL NEED TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD AND WILL NEED A HEAT DEFROSTER FOR IT LIVING HERE IN NEBRASKA. THIS IS A LONG KNOWN PROBLEM AND I'M SHOCKED THAT CHRYSLER HAS NOT RECALLED THIS PROBLEM AS IT POSES MAJOR SAFETY IMPLICATIONS.

I FEEL THAT THOSE NEW CHRYSLER COMMERCIALS ARE NOT UP TO PAR AS AMERICAN AND GERMAN ENGINEERING.

THIS IS MY 4TH JEEP. HERE IS A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THIS ISSUE. I PURCHASED A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, THE OVERLAND EDITION. THE DEALERSHIP PUSHED BUYING A USED CERTIFIED JEEP VEHICLE! THEY MENTIONED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT WOULD TAKE CARE OF ANY ISSUES THAT THE JEEP HAD DURING THE LAST YEARS OF MY OWNERSHIP. I WENT IN THE DEALERSHIP LOOKING TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE BUT THEY TOLD ME ALL THE ADDED BENEFITS / VALUE FROM BUYING FROM THE USED JEEP FACILITY! THE WARRANTY: AS MENTIONED I PURCHASED THE WARRANTY SOLD BY JEEP AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE AGREEMENT THAT WAS SOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP WENT BANKRUPT! GARY MILLER CHRYSLER JEEP ISUZU LOCATED IN ERIE, PA SOLD THIS TO ME. MY 1ST ISSUE WAS WHEN I DECIDED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE IN BECAUSE OF A VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING. I WAS MADE AWARE THAT THE COMPANY WAS BANKRUPT WHEN TYING TO CALL AND FIND OUT WHAT INFORMATION WILL BE NEEDED WHEN I GO TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP IN KANSAS CITY. FURTHERMORE I MENTIONED TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP THAT PUSHED THE CONTRACT THAT I AM WILING TO PURCHASE THE BEST CONTRACT TO MAKE SURE I DO NOT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY NEW VEHICLE IN THE FUTURE. THE CONSTANT ISSUES: I HAVE NOW TAKEN IN MY JEEP FOR 6 VISITS! I HAVE ONLY INCLUDED SOME OF THE PAYMENTS (SEE THE ADDITIONAL PAPERWORK) BUT YOU CAN SEE A TREND HERE. THIS JEEP HAD BEEN NOTHING BUT A PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE! I AM NOW STUCK REPLACING THE STEERING PUMP FOR THE 2ND TIME! I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT AND LIVE WITHOUT A VEHICLE. I AM OUT SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS AND STILL HAVE TO TAKE THIS VEHICLE (THAT JEEP PUSHED ON ME) TO THE SERVICE SHOP ABOUT EVERY 6 MONTHS. I JUST STARTED DRIVING MY VEHICLE FROM THE LAST SERVICE REPAIR (I AM GETTING VERY FAMILIAR TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIPS) AND STILL THE ITEM IS NOT FIXED AND MY JEEP IS LEAKING OIL ALL OVER OUR COMPANY DRIVEWAY.

WITH IN THE FIRST 2 YEARS I HAD IT IN THE SHOP FOR A VARIETY OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS I HAVE ALL THE PAPER WORK. I AM AFRAID THE JEEP WILL CATCH ON FIRE OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I'VE ALSO CHECKED MANY OTHER THINGS THAT WERE ISSUES WITH THE JEEP. LEAKING SHOCKS AND TRANSMISSION PAN AND EMISSIONS IS NOW LEAKING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON AND EVERY TIME I GET IT CHECKED IT'S A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. I'M OUT OF MY WARRANTY NOW BUT THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS WRONG. THE DEALER REPLACED 2 OF 4 LEAKING SHOCKS THEY LEFT THE TRANSMISSION PAN LOOSE WHEN THEY REPLACED A PART IN THE TRANSMISSION. THIS JEEP IS UNSAFE FOR THE ROAD IT HAS LOST POWER IN THE PAST WHILE TRAVELING SO THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY TWICE WITH IN A MONTH.

THE COOLING FAN BLADE JUST BROKE WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT. IT MADE THE CAR THUMP I THOUGHT SOMEONE HIT US BUT THE FAN BLADES BROKE THE FAN SHRODE AND PUT DENTS ALL IN THE RADIATOR AND BROKE THE FAN GUARD.

AIR CONDITIONER FAN STOPPED, THOUGHT I HAD IT SET WRONG, CHANGED THE SETTING, STARTED WORKING AGAIN. COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER IT STOPPED AGAIN. THEN IT WOULD WORK INTERMITTANTLY. CALLED DEALER AND THEY SAID CHECK FUSES AND RELAYS, CHECKED OK. CALLED THEM BACK, THEY SAID CHECK WIRING HARNESS FOR MELTDOWN. CONNECTOR AND WIRES GOING TO THE BLOWER WERE MELTED. THEY SAID I NEEDED TO SCHEDULE AN APPT. THEY DID NOT TELL ME TO DISCONNECT WIRES OR THAT I NEEDED TO WORRY ABOUT POSSIBLE FIRE. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER ON MY WAY HOME, SMOKE STATED COMING OUT OF DASH ON PASSENGER SIDE, I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. JUMPED OUT AND RAN AROUND TO OTHER SIDE, OPENED FRONT DOOR TO SEE WHAT WAS SMOKING AND FLAMES WERE COMING FROM UNDER THE DASH. RAN TO BACK DOOR AND OPENED TO GET FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND THE SMOKED KNOCKED ME DOWN. CRAWLED AWAY FROM VEHICLE AND STUMBLED TO HOUSE AND CALLED 911. I AM SO THANKFUL MY FAMILY WASN'T WITH ME ESPECIALLY MY 4 YEAR OLD IN HIS CAR SEAT. THE THOUGHT OF IT TERRIFIES ME. I AM STILL HAVING NIGHTMARES OF FIRE AND AM VERY PARANOID OF FIRE. DIAMLERCRYSLER CORP. REFUSES TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY EVEN THO IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRENTY. HAVE SEVERAL WITNESSES TO THE MELTED WIRING HARNESS.*AK
