1 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 10/19/2015

I have read that !any people have the same driver's seat issue. The holes for the bolts has been shredded completely and the dealership tried to charge $3,500 to repair it. It's a defect that should be fixed for free. It under the seat, how can the owner destroy that. 2) the head light covers gets this discoloration or grime on the inside decreasing the brightness by 45% at night, this didn't happen in my bronco. I called Chrysler and they said the recall # listed online didn't match the format of the numbers in their system to do research. What? this is ridiculous, fix your recalls Chrysler!!!.

2 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 03/31/2011

Rear taillights stop working, contacts deteriorate and burn. This is a serious problem because taillights will go out without warning to driver and can cause an accident or the driver to be ticketed by law enforcement for faulty equipment released by Jeep. Taillights have to be replaced.

3 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 03/09/2011

The power in doors windows works off and on. There will be no point to lock your door and then you can't unlock the door. The windows sometimes roll down and times they don't. The lighting on the inside of the car comes off and on without being turned on. Happened on its own anytime the car is started and can't be turned off at times. The dash lights don't work sometimes blinkers work off and on any electrical in the inside of Jeep is messed up.

4 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 11/24/2008

I was on my way home from work and followed by a police officer. He pulled me over to give me a citation for an equipment violation. It appears whenever I hit my brakes my driverside taillight went out instead of illuminating further. I had once been told of this before but everytime I checked they worked (always with my lights off). And I have replaced the bulb a few times. I have now done some testing and it appears the housing is faulty. My mom has an 04 liberty with the same problems as well as my sister in laws 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee laredo. This obviously is a faulty design and needs to be corrected by the manufacturer. I should not have to pay both my ticket and the cost to fix the issue, when it's an issue of faulty manufactured equipment.

5 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 07/18/2008

I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited and this is the second that I have worked on and I have noticed that the license plate lights wiring harness seem to melt on the bulbs and I think over time this could become a big risk over time. The harness is very hard to replace and I don't think many people would notice cause of the location. I have been burned by the hot rubber type plastic. This is the third time I have had to replace the lights over the years and every time it just gets worst. Once on my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee laredo the light hosing was burned.

6 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 04/20/2006

My car has major problems and I can't afford to fix, then I find the problem that I have is due to the automaker's problem because the car is on recalls for the problems I am having. I received no notices on any recall, and when I got on the web-site to check for recalls there are as many as 10 major problems with my car and Jeep. Some could cause me to crash or even explode while driving. Where are my recall notices?.
