Three problems related to underhood wiring have been reported for the 1997 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I bought my 1997 Jeep Wrangler in June, 2002 from a used car dealer in baltimore, MD with an as-is warranty and was told the vehicle had passed inspection and was in good condition. It had 64,000 miles on it and appeared to be good. Since then I have had nothing but problems with this Jeep. First the wiring harness, then the transmission, now a diagnosis to replace the intake and exhaust manifold, replaced fuel pump and has a faulty fuel gauge, and possibly the stabilizer bar or steering components. This Jeep is costing me more in repairs than the actual value of it. I fear that it is unsafe and that I m facing more expenses if I keep it, but I am still making payments on it. Do I have any recourse as far as lemon law protection, recalls, help!!! I don't know what to do with it.
Engine harness bad in vehicle. Vehicle has been to dealer for lots of problems since new. The latest is the harness problem. The vehicle has been to the dealer 4 times, and is at present time is still at dealer. They have had it going on three weeks now. No one can find the proper parts or a correct way of fixing it. I have contacted Chrysler more times then I care to recall,but still the same answer that they are trying everything to fix the problem. This last time 2 wires in engine harness melted,I feel that the vehicle is unsafe and unreliable. If you can help in anyway I would greatly appreciate it,thank you james haven.
Probable faulty connection at ignition switch - problem persists.
