5 Seat Broken problem

Failure Date: 12/20/2009

As I was accelerating from a stop I heard a loud crack and the drivers side front seat broke from the base mount. The seat broke at one corner but did not come totally seperated. If it had totally broken free it could have caused a major accident as I was in heavy traffic when it broke. I have not yet fixed the issue and plan to do the repairs myself. This sounds like a very common problem for my make and model based on internet forums and I am very disappointed that Chrysler has not initiated a safety recall for this issue.

6 Seat Broken problem

Failure Date: 07/15/2003

The front drivers side seat broke at the back approximately July 2003. I had it repaired and I was told that the metal is too thin and that's why it broke. It broke again so I tried to buy a used seat from several salvage yards. They all said that they sell as fast as they come in do to the backs breaking.

7 Seat Broken problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2003

Driver's side seat frame broke from floor mount.

8 Seat Broken problem

My company owns a fleet of 1998-2000 Jeep Cherokees used as marked security vehicles. At least three driver bucket seats have broken while the vehicle was being driven- certainly a potential cause of accidents. The metal where the seat is bolted to the floor of the vehicle tears, causing the front right corner of the seat to come loose and pitch up.
