| Model year | COMPONENT | Complaint |
| 1990 | STEERING:LINKAGES | STEERING TRACKING BAR FAILED, CAUSING LOUD NOISE. |
| 1996 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR | LAST PROBLEM WITH ROTORS WAS IN NOVEMBER 1999, 59,000 TOTAL MILES. FRONT ROTORS WARPED CAUSING PULSATION OF BRAKE PEDAL. REPORTED THE HISTORY OF THIS PROBLEM TO THE CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT, 1-800-992-1997. WAS TOLD THAT BASED ON MY VEHICLE'S VIN # NO RECALL WAS WARRANTED. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT OTHER 1996 JEEP CHEROKEES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS SAME REASON AND I FIND IT APPALLING THAT ALL JEEPS WITH ROTOR PROBLEMS HAVEN'T BEEN RECALLED YET. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE? A FATAL ACCIDENT, LIKE THE FIRESTONE ONES, FOR SOMETHING TO BE DONE. NO VEHICLE SHOULD BE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH ROTORS EVERY TWO YEARS. I WOULD APPRECIATE IF SOMEONE WOULD CONTACT ME REGARDING THIS.*AK |
