Parking Brake problem #1

2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee heat not working - a common complaint of many Jeep owners seeking to file a class-action lawsuit against daimler Chrysler Jeep. $900 + is beyond absurd to pay to fix this common problem that Jeep should have recalled and fixed for free.

Parking Brake problem #2

As I was in park with my vehicle running, my vehicle jumped out of park into reverse and rolled away eventually hitting a woman putting her into the hospital. It also had done damage to the funeral home we were at. I was not in the vehicle at the time. Several times before the incident the car shifter would lock up and not even move out of park.
