1 Automatic Transmission Cooler problem of the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Failure Date: 07/07/2014

Vehicle suddenly and without warning got stuck in 4th gear and wouldn’t shift into a higher or lower gear making it unable to accelerate and safely exit the highway. I was eventually able to get the car pulled over to safety and had it towed to a local dealership. The dealer diagnosis was that a cooling line popped out of the transmission which caused all the fluid to drain out.

Replaced radiator around may of 09 still having cooling problems. I replaced so many sensors that have failed that I cant remember them all. I still have 1 more year of payments on this vehicle. . Its hard to make payments when I have been buying so many parts to try to keep this car running. Bad door seals, they are too small (short or shrinking) it lets water come in back passenger area. Always smells musty inside. . Black mold in the rainy season. Taillight brake light on one only works part time. Replaced 3 door latches. Including one on rear hatch.

3 Automatic Transmission Cooler problem of the 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Failure Date: 09/30/2007

I have a 2000 Jeep gc laredo, and along with many,many other people I have numerous problems. The warped rotors are very dangerous when you have to use your brakes, especially when you have children in the car as I do, also the taillight/brake light issue, that has gotten me pulled over more than once, even though I put a new bulb in it every time. The door lock actuator that is very annoying not to mention my transmission has a shifting problem that I can't do anything about and now my radiator fan will not work so my car will overheat if I am stopped for too long.

6 months ago, noticed transmission leak. Took it twice for repair. After 2 repairs the transmission is still leaking which 2 weeks ago led me to call both the dealer & manufacturer. On 09/13, the dealer took the car back for repair but informed me that he will not replace the transmission because he sees no leak. On 09/16, I notice again that the transmission is leaking and therefore I am filling a complaint.
