general problems of the 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee

In motion the car shakes violently. I was on the freeway and almost wrecked the car from the shaking. I have bad back pain and scared to drive. My 4 year old is terrified of getting near the car.

Steering wheel hard to keep in single lane. New tires, balanced, and alignment all accomplished. Still hard to keep in single lane.

Tl the contact owns a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee. When the steering wheel was turned to the right, the steering seized. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact called christopher's Dodge world at (303) 238-7311 and was informed that there was no recall associated with the vehicle. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 99v312000 (steering). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 154,000.

Car shakes badly after 60 mph and in the morning the steering wheel locks and I turn it left/right and can't unlock it sometimes for hours. It is happening more then ever now. I purchased this vehicle in 2015.

For going on 2 months now my car has stalled at the most inconvenient times. Turning into gas stations, stopping at stop lights, driving on busy streets going up to 50mph. Usually I can just pop it into neutral and restart it but as of late, it won't turn back over until I replace the ignition fuse. I have replaced that fuse twice now, replaced the map sensor, replaced the fuel filter, yet nothing has offered a permanent solution to this problem. As you can clearly tell, this is a very dangerous problem to be having and by reading through these complaints I see I am far from alone. Not to mention the cost associated with having to replace all of these parts (per advice from mechanics) while getting nowhere. Please fix this or figure out what is causing it before someone gets seriously injured or worse. I'd also like to note my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited was having this same problem before I junked it.

Sudden stalling while driving or at idle. Applicable at all speeds from idle to freeway speeds. Sometimes the vehicle will restart and other times it will not restart right away. Sometimes it will restart if the vehicle sits for about 15 minutes and other times it has left me stranded for three hours or more. I have stalled in the middle of busy intersections and freeways. I have taken the vehicle in for repairs three times, have paid over $400 in repair bills to have parts replaced and the issue still occurs. There are many complaints in internet forums for the exact same thing and most seem to lead to a faulty engine control module. I have not yet replaced the engine control module myself since they can cost over $400 and the dealer cannot guarantee that this will fix it. With all of the complaints regarding this reoccurring issue, I believe that this should warrant n investigation and possible recall due to safety concerns of vehicles stalling. The stalling has happened numerous times. I have no single date that I can provide. I have quit driving this vehicle since November due to concern for safety.

First: I had purchased this vehicle used with approx. 110,000 miles on odometer. Steering wheel violently shakes on moderate to heavy braking as well as moderate shaking upon deceleration on highway surfaces as well as interment clunking from frontal suspension area under similar conditions. The steering wheel may be pointed straight ahead or at a slight left or right position. There are times when the shaking, under the above conditions, is very slight or nonexistent at all. I believe it is in the front steering linkage/suspension and not the brakes. I have personally inspected the components mentioned above as I have mopar experience in the past as a technician. I have also had a second opinion from an independent technician well versed in Jeep technology. Second; I also have a problem with the oil pressure being erratic when warmed up and either stationary or in motion. I have replaced the oil pressure sending unit and performed mopar diagnostics on the cluster as mentioned in the shop manual to no avail on this 4. 0l engine with automatic transmission. The gauge reads well when cold but when warmed up it will drop to zero with the gauge alarm warning me of the action. Then moving erratically between the 40lb marker and zero pressure while in motion or stationary. I and a few technicians are having difficulty determining where the problem is generated. On a note, there is a slight consistant tickng noise such as a valve lifter or rocker arm coming from the engine, warm or cold, stationary or in motion. It occurred when I purchased the vehicle and is still occurring today. Thank you for any consideration that you may provide to me as this is my only means of transportion and I am handicapped.

When this vehicle gets up to 60 it shakes very bad until I press the break. I have replaced all the front end suspension parts and it stopped for a few months and has now started again. This is very scary and I am worried about a possible crash.

The contact owns a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the air bag indicator illuminated intermittently and chimed. An independent mechanic stated that the clock spring was defective. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 150,000.

As I was pulling out of my driveway on the morning of Tuesday, June 5 and heard a loud clicking sound coupled with a sticking in my steering wheel as I turned it to the right. As I continued to my drive, I noticed the clicking and sticking almost every time I turned the steering wheel to the right (even on slight motions like when parallel parking). I took the car to the mechanic for fear the steering would stick and I would ram into something or someone. He told me everything seemed fine on the outside (no signs of the typical wear and tear or any of the common leakage problems). However, he said this was a serious problem and the vehicle should not be driven. After careful inspection he found the interior of the gearbox cracked. When he looked up the parts he saw that the 2000 and 2001 steering gear had been recalled and instructed me to talk to my local Jeep dealer (my local dealer is the figueroa location in downtown los angeles). When I spoke with them, they informed me my car was not under the recall parameters as it was manufactured in December 1999. However, I would like to note that this problem seems far more reaching than the small parameters of the dates of the recalls. The same part (#52088272ad) has caused the same hazardous and costly problem (sticking/binding/seizing) over a span of two years of Jeeps, 2000 and 2001. This same part was used in Jeeps in subsequent years as well.

My Jeep shakes really badly. Has been going on for a long time but getting worse. I have to steer with a death grip on the wheel while it is happening. Have had Jeep realigned and tires replaced and balanced. Action is sparadic but is still doing it more often.

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?.

1. Normal operation of vehicle 2. The service bulletin describes it as a honk-like sound from the power steering system, occurring most often during a right hand low speed turn, such as parking lot maneuvers. 3. Nothing, I've contacted the dealer several times and they have offered no solution to the problem.

1. Transmission: having problems shifting from 2nd gear to 3rd gear until car is fully warmed; occasionally, the car stalled due to the gear not shifting properly; 2. Brake rotors: rotors warp within 12,000 miles; changed new rotors and pads three times; 3. Alignment: pulls to the right summary: transmission & brake rotors are known problems by dailerchrysler---unsafe vehicle.

Steering makes poppings sound -dealer service dept c/n fix.
