Transmission failure due to not being replaced when scheduled for maintenance.
My heater takes 45-60 mins to heat up my car, and it doesn’t blow full force when it’s on the highest setting. On cold days I literally have to start my car up 45 before I need to leave just to have a slight warmth inside. Once I’m moving, it barely blows any heat through the vents. The highest setting feels like it’s on the lowest setting.

A dangerous situation exist ! there is no recall or acknowledgment of this problem being identified!.
Once parked the heat sheild came up against the heater core and must have sparked causing it to catch fire under the hood! needs to be investigated before causing a possible fatal issue.

This car has an electrical issue that no-one can figure it out. It keeps giving us all these error codes: p0430, p2305, p2311, p2317 and p0430. We had replaced all the sparkplugs, the electric coils, battery, starter, the computer (pcm), ignition switch, the 02 sensor and still the car will not stay on and shakes while is running.
About a month ago I was coming up the mountain and it was hard to stere and it made me hit a gard rail on the other side of the road and then about a week ago I was going to town and I stopped at the store to get gas and turn it off and it would not start back so I don't no what is wrong.
Traveling last night and the lights went up, down then out for almost 20 seconds and doing 40 mph is scary. The lights finally came on but then they dim up and down. Before this last week the cruise control would not disengage. I never know what's going to happen when I drive this vehicle and the worst thing is taking it out at night and having the lights go out. This week was the forth time that has happened thank god it happened on a lighted road but I still had no brake lights. All times this has happened I've been on interstate highways and traveling at night.
My engine light it on.
Front suspension went out lost all control of vehicle.
The catalytic converters code p0420 is permanent code it cannot be turn off . How will I pass smog the vehicle has 4 new O2 sensors new spark plugs well maintained excellent condition.
Jeep was shut off and in park in parking lot when flames were seen coming out from under the hood. By the time the fire dept. Arrived, the fire had started to breach the firewall in the front of the Jeep.
When starting vehicle it will not turn over. It continues to crank until ignition is switched off. This problem does not happen all the time and is very unpredictable. Typically after several attempts the vehicle will start up correctly. The vehicle has done this in the cold and in the heat, after running fine all day or sitting turned off over night.

After fueling and starting the vehicle, it fails to accelerate for several minutes. Also when fueling it doesn't stop and will overflow onto the ground if you don't keep track of how much gas you are putting in. Another issue is that the vehicle shakes very badly when idle.

The "check engine" light was on, the light below -- electronic trottle control and the service four wheel drive lite was on. Turned car off, turned back on, had trouble starting, again had to push the gear shift forward, the only light that went off was the service four wheel drive light.
