The fuel level sending unit in this 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee loredo is extremely unreliable and un-safe. There was a recall on this issue in the prior model year for this vehicle. If one was to contact Jeep dealerships for replacement parts for the level sending unit , you in turn will receive the identical parts that were installed in the recalled 1997 model year. This would mean the 1997 card body, card body wiper, float arm retainer and the float arm assembly part numbers were reinstalled in the 1998 fuel moduals. Revision levels on these engineered parts are doughtfull. The problem with this vehicle is you can fill the tank in full position (23 gal -two clicks) start it up and it may read empty , it may read half full or it may read full at any given moment. Occasionaly when you shut the rear hatch door on this vehicle the vibration may case the fuel level unit to react inside the tank/module in a abnormal manner. I believe this is an unsafe and has caused this owner to run out of gas once on highway i95 in NY and once on a back road. Chrysler customer support has been contacted and documented the issue on this vehicle but to no avail. Please respond, thank you, ken dubrava.
