Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Takata air bag and fuel tank explosion on impact. As of the date of this report, I did not received any document from Chrysler concerning theses 2 safety issue with my Jeep. We are located in south florida. I've call some Chrysler dealer in my area, and they say that there are no recall for my car concerning theses two safety issue. Nothing has happen so far, but I don't want to continue playing the odd that noting will happen to the life of my wife,my children and myself when driving the Jeep in florida. I will appreciate receiving any input from the NHTSA in that matter, and also a recall notice from Chrysler to fix the two safety issue. The soonest will the best. Thank you for addressing my concern.

We could it to the dealer for the n47 recall and it was there for 24 hours and they said it doesn't need a hitch it doesn't need any protection for the fuel tank. I don't understand why and this recall is a waste of my time and the car can still blow up in a rear end crash,.

Vehicle has gas tank known to explode in rear end collisions.

Although no accident yet, I wanted to say that I have never received any notice from fca about the "customer satisfaction campaign" (because although the gas tank hangs under the rear bumper, year 2000 was not included in the "recall" trailer hitch deal). I bought it new and am still living at the same address. I also wanted to note that another issue with the gc is that the brake and tail lights often stop working. The socket gets scorched and you have to go take it apart, pry the contacts up just right and put aluminum foil under them (google Grand Cherokee brake lights). That works for a while, then you have to do it again. I've been stopped twice in 6 months for it. Sometimes the taillight works but actually goes out when you step on the brake. In any case, having a gas tank prone to exploding when rear ended along with brake light issues is not a good thing. The door locks on the passenger side also cannot be unlocked except from inside the vehicle, while the drivers side have to be locked manually (again, it's all over google. It's called the angry duck for the noise the locks make. I have been waiting for NHTSA to make a other announcement about this - the news was they were going to in a week or so, but that was 3 weeks ago. Thanks pat paulson miapjp@gmail. Com.

I can't put gas in the tank unless it is at the very slightest flow or it just shuts off and sometimes spews gas back out at me. I have been soaked with gasoline more than once. I can't even put it on the lowest setting on the handle. I saw the recalls and called the dealer who said that they know that this is a manufacturers defect but they won't do anything because my VIN isn't in the recall. This is obviously a fire hazard and I can't believe we can't get this fixed.

Faulty gas tank. Gas leaking from tank. Strong smell.

You people, at NHTSA look like a group of "horse's asses" for backing down. I have complained about the gas tank on my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited and now you have allowed Chrysler to "make a deal" by not including the 1999 to 2004 group. . . What a "crock" that is! you have the facts. . . 51 deaths directly only attributed to placement of the gas tank. . . . Stop shirking your responsibilities and get them to recall that group as well. Enough of your being "backed up against the wall" by the auto makers. . . . Get off your duff and show them who is the boss of our safety. . . . Only you. . . . Now make it work! a very irate customer. . . . (and this should appear everywhere and Chrysler needs heavy duty pressure to recall the '99 to '04 group. . . Same problem, same situation and will happen again and again. . . . Get it right this time!).

Transmission will automatically with gear while driving. The transmission started jerking between gears 1-2 and 4-3. The sunfoof screeches when closing. The fuel chime light comes on at quarter tank. The overhead computer reads inaccurately.
