Six problems related to fuel delivery have been reported for the 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Fuel pump died on busy highway creating safety peril. Police had to be called. Dt.
Jeep required plastic gas tank to be replaced in order to warantee 600 dollar new fuel pump. Bill to replace fuel pump and gas tank was 1300 with labor. This is not right. If gas tank is failing due to gas additives this should be recall/replacement by Jeep. This car has been well maintained. Dt.
I understand that earlier model years have a recall or something similar becasue of a coating used on the inside of the gas tank that gets eaten away over time by an additive in the gas that is used in the north. This lining then clogs the pump and filter causing failure. The cost of parts and labor endied up being over 800 dollars. If this is a known problem why isn't it taken care of? mr.
The fuel pump is being replaced the 3rd time today in 3 months. Dt.
