Power Window problems of the 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Driver-side window fell into door and will not roll up. Upon research online, hundreds if not thousands of other people have had this same problem with faulty parts within the window mechanism. Have not done any work or replacement yet.

I have 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited that the rear window is not safe for a child at all my 4 year old son got his hand rolled up between the glass and the rear of the door pillar luckily he screamed before real damage could have been done. I don't know why this was never looked at by Jeep cause the Grand Cherokee has the same body style from 1999 to 2004.

Intermittently consumer cannot get the windows to roll up or down. Dealer informed the consumer that the window motor regulator needed to be replaced. Old regulator was replaced by a new one designed by the manufacturer.

Had car 1 yr, 62,xxx mi; when we test drove with 36,xxx miles, the brakes shook violently when braking; dealer installed new rotors; 3 months later I replaced brakes; 3 months after that vibrating again - rotors turned and replaced brakes again; brakes are squeaking again now; in shop for third time for transmission problems - slips gears, clunking in low gears, won't shift, surges ahead when stopping; revs up prior to shifting; dealer keeps replacing parts to fix the problem; replaced 2 electrical window regulators (drivers & passengers side). This gorgeous vehicle is a nightmare.

This is the second time in six months that the seat supports have broken away. I am not a big person and the seat is not often moved. This structural failure of the seat is unusual, when abuse is not present, Chrysler should be assistance, when it is apparent that there is a either a design flaw or structural failure.

The front electric window on the passenger side stopped working. I can still hear the motor click like it is trying to roll down the window but nothing happens. All other windows work correctly.

The air bag light was intermittent. The passenger side window and the driver side lock assembly was inoperative. The dealer was not willing to do anything to help. Scc.

The car is not quite 3 years old and the passenger rear window fails to work. The window is not used often. The daimeler Chrysler stated because of teh mileage they would not perform the repair free. My question to daimler Chrysler was what does mileage have to do with a window working? either they work or not. I mentioned that there were several tb on the power windows working sporadically.

Within a year had power window motors replaced due to regulator/motor failure. Currently, problem appeard to be reoccurring. Dealer was notified, and informed consumer vehicle was not covered under a recall, and warranty expired. Feel free to provide any further information.

Dead battery from overnight flickering of lights. Difficulty with lowering/raising right front passenger window, appears to have no power. Left headlamp appears to be burned out, when ride over bump it goes on. Lights/headlights on dashboard flicker on/off while car is in garage parked. When driving and lights flicker on/off, it appears to get a surge of power and car surges forward. Have taken to dealer and they cannot find anything wrong with it.

We have had the rotors "shaved" at 12,000 miles, supposedly replaced at 22,000 miles and started having problems again at 31000 miles car vibrates violently, driver seat belt keeps jamming, the differential had to be replaced and the fuel pump had to be replaced.

I have taken my car into either courtesy motors in chico California or normandin Jeep in chico California. Each time, my car was returned to me unrepaired. No safety defect listed in summary.

What a lemon! we are averaging $2000/year in repairs. Power windows that stop working, water pump breaks, brake rotors need replacing before brakes wear out, leaking differential, transmission, and now we're told by dealer service department we need a new transfer case. Whoever designed/built/sold this vehicle doesn't have much pride in their workmanship.

No summary.

While traveling over 60mph vehicle shimmies and shakes. Rotors have been turned and replaced several times. The consumer considers the vehicle to be a lemon. The vehicle had been eight times to dealership and was out of service for repairs for 13 calendar days. The problems were window motor failure. Bad brake rotors occured five times. Noise in the rear of the vehicle due to bearings failure. The vehicle vibrates when brakes are applied.

Since puchase of vehicle there has been a vibration when applying brakes. Took vehicle to dealer, and they replaced rotors. Consumer states that recall 00v136/man recall 879 explains the problems vehicle is experiencing, however consumer has been charged for all repairs. After running vehicle with a/c on for longer than an hour, the a/c stops cooling, a/c was blowing through defroster vents, found miscalibrated atc head. Vehicle would cut off at idle. Right rear window inoperable. Crank sensor was replaced.

Ongoing problem with power window failure on driver's side door. Vehicle been in dealer shop on five occasions, and problem still reoccurring. Please feel free to provide further details.

Passenger front window regulator failed at 10,728 miles. Driver front window regulator failed at 18,670 miles. Passenger front window regulator replaced at 31,448 miles. All these instances resulted in the windows not operating for some period of time.

I bought two Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles in April of '99. In both vehicles, the window regulators have stopped working. I can't roll-down the windows, and the problem can't be fixed immediately, because the parts are on a national back-order list, so other Jeep owners must be experiencing similar problems.

Driver's side power window does not operate properly, the window does not roll up or down.

All 4 power windows intermittently will not open. Driver's window inoperative for 15 days, parts replaced, now on third repeat of same malfunction.

The window on this vehicle has not worked for some time now and I am concerned for the safety of my family. The window does not work at all. I have had this vehicle into our local dealership three times now and they can't seem to fix it nor do they take me seriously. I would appreciate any help I can get.

Have experienced numerous quality problems including the 4 wheel drive grinding and jumping, window function problems, rear washerhose leak into rear compartment, rough transmission into reverse from park, oil gauge failure and engine clicking noise during acceleration. Dealer on many occasions says they are normal for the truck to experience and not to worry. I don't believe them.

Abs light, and brake light came on, indicating a brake malfunction. Wiring to the right wheel speed sensor was cut by lower control arm. The vehicle has electrical and suspension problems. Driver and passenger side power windows inoperative. Fuel pump failed. Vehicle is leaking transmission fluid due to pan gasket failure. Fuel is leaking from fuel tank due to defective fuel sending unit seal. Abs light, air bag lights are on and a/c blinkers are not working due to ignition switch looses. Vehicle makes noise due to power steering gear assembly failure.

Our 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee is 4 months old and is nothing but trouble; the transfer case was replaced, the car makes a grinding noise at highway speeds and the dealer thought the replacement of the transfer case would solve the problem. It didn't however. Furthermore the gear oil had to be replaced because the car would buck and even stall sometimes when I would make tight turn. Furthermore the transmission is sometimes clunking. Our power window needs a new motor. The car keeps on pulling to the right and that still hasn't been fixed. We have been very disappointed and wish the lemon law would be a little bit more protective of consumers than car dealers and manufacturers.

All of the windows in this Jeep have stopped working over time. The first time was Jan. 27, 2000 (shortly after purchase) rht front window stopped working and regulator was replaced. On April 28, 2000 the passenger front window stopped working and regulator replaced. On October 6, 2000 the passenger front door window stopped working again and the regulator was replaced again. On June 26, 2001 the driver front window and the passenger rear window stopped working and the regulators were replaced. Finally on June 4, 2002 the drivers rear window has stopped working. This time the dealership says that the Jeep is out of warranty and wants to charge to $217. 00 to replace the regulator. The Jeep was covered on the other previous instances. I feel that there is an ongoing problem with the windows in this vehicle. I am afraid that one day all of the windows will fail on it making it impossible to get out of this vehicle if I am in an accident or other incidence.

I will be stopped at a light or in traffic when all of a sudden the rpm's will become very erratic. The needle will jump up and down from 700 to 200 to 0 etc. The vehicle has stalled on several occasions in the middle of traffic almost causing a rear end collision. The problem only happens when the car is in drive, with foot on the brake. Been to dealership several times. They have connected a Chrysler CO-pilot to monitor and record problem. Have recorded problem several times. Currently waiting for a response. I do know of 3 other people with 1999 Grand Cherokees that have the same problem. Since the vehicle does stall out in the middle of traffic, it does represent a safety issue. Since this obviously is not exclusive to me, Chrysler needs to fix the problem immediately, or take back the vehicle. Again this is a brand new Jeep. For the record, I have had other defects with this vehicle, although minor compared to this one. Defects include rattles, window motor failures etc.
