VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, AIR BAGS
ELLEN ROMETT, (WIFE) IN AN ATTEMPT TO MOVE OUR 1995 JEEP CHEROKEE GRAND LMT. FORWARD IN THE DRIVEWAY A FEW FEET, PLACED THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE WITH HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE. THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED FORWARD AT HIGH SPEED THROUGH THE YARD FENCE, SHE IMMEDIATELY HIT THE BRAKE, HOWEVER THE CAR CONTINUED TO TRAVEL AN ADDITIONAL 34 FEET AND FINALLY CAME TO STOP AFTER HITTING A LARGE CHERRY TREE. GRASS AND DRIVEWAY MARKINGS VALIDATE HER ATTEMPT TO BRAKE THE VEHICLE AND THE FACT THAT THE ACCELERATION CONTINUED EVEN AFTER BRAKING. AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. INJURIES TO MY WIFE APPEAR TO BE MINIMAL, HOWEVER, THERE WAS EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE JEEP CHEROKEE AND $1400 IN PROPERTY DAMAGE. *NLM

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY, FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
FUEL PUMP FAILURE,TOWED TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC(NOT DEALER).A NEW PUMP WAS INSTALLED AND WHEN THE MECHANIC GOT IT FROM THE DEALERSHIP,THEY SAID TO LOOK FOR ALGAE IN THE TANK.THEY DID SO,AND THERE WAS NONE!I PICKED UP THE JEEP AND DROVE 40 MILES ONLY TO HAVE IT STOP RUNNING AGAIN.AFTER HAVING IT TOWED BACK IN AGAIN,ONLY TO FIND OUT ANOTHER FUEL PUMP HAD FAILED.THE MECHANIC CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO TELL THEM OF THE SECOND FAILURE AND TO GET A REPLACEMENT;THEY TOLD HIM TO REPLACE THE TANK ALONG WITH THE FUEL PUMP BECAUSE THE TANKS HAVE BEEN DETERIORATING AND CAUSING THE FUEL PUMP FAILURES.THE REPLACEMENT TANK FROM JEEP HAS BEEN REDESIGNED AND CARRIES A NEW PART NUMBER,THUS RECOGNIZING A DEFECT! THEY ALSO ADMITTED TO CHANGING 6 OTHER TANKS FOR THAT REASON JUST LAST MONTH!(WITH FUEL PUMPS).THIS FLAW IS OBVIOUS TO THE DEALERS AND THEY AREN'T GOING TO BE CALLING YOU TO INITIATE A RECALL I WOULDN'T THINK;SO MAYBE SOME INVESTIGATION IS NECESSARY JUST TO VERIFY THE OBVIOUS.I'M $1300.00 IN THE HOLE FOR AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURERS FLAW.PLEASE NOTIFY ME OF THE WHAT HAS TO BE RECALL(REIMBURSEMET).

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP, EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL
I HAVE HAD 4 REBUILT FUEL PUMPS REPLACED ON MY 95 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SINCE NOEMBER 4,2002 AND THEY KEEP FAILING. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR OTHER THAN THE FUEL PUMP. THE MECHANIC HAS CHECKED THE TANK. I HAVE NOW FOUND OUT THAT THE DEALER SELLING THE PUMP TO THE STATION MAY NOT COVER THE WARRANTY. IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL BUT THE DEALER ONLY WANTS TO SEND ME A NEW PUMP. THE DEALER IS NORTHEAST AUTO OUTLET, GRANT & ACADEMY ROAD IN PHILA.,PA.
