ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
THIS IS THE THIRD CAT I HAVE HAD TO PLACE ON THIS AUTOMOBILE. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FIRST TWO, ALL FAILING AT ABOUT THE TIME 50,000 MILES COMES AROUND. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THESE, AND REPLACED THE FIRST TWO FREE OF CHARGE. NOW ANOTHER DEALERSHIP STATES THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT A PROBLEM WITH THESE. THE INSIDE OF THE CAT COMES LOOSE, BLOCKING THE EXHAUST, HINDERING PERFORMANCE. ALSO NOTED BY A NOISY METAL RATTLING NOISE WHILE AT IDLE OR UNDER ACCELERATION. MR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE
THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD CRACKED CAUSING FUMES TO ENTER THE CAR. ALSO THE MANIFOLD SUPPORTS THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WHICH COULD FALL OFF IF CRACK WOULD BREAK COMPLETELY. THERE MUST BE AN ENGINEERING DESIGN DEFECT BECAUSE THE PART HAS BEEN REDESIGNED. I ALSO WAS TOLD THE USED JUNK YARD PARTS WERE CRACKED SO I COULDN'T BUY A USED MANIFOLD. NOT ONLY THE COST OF THE MANIFOLD BUT THE SAFETY ISSUES WITH A FAILED MANIFOLD HAVE ME VERY CONCERNED. NLM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
THE MANNIFOLD HAS CRACKED TWICE. THE FIRST TIME, JEEP FIXED IT, STATING THERE WAS A "DESIGN FLAW". NOW, APPROX. TWO YEARS LATER, AND ANOTHER 32,000 MILES(ROUGHLY) THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME, THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT, DUE TO MILEAGE. HOWEVER, I FEEL AS IF THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW, AND THIS HAPPENS EVERY 30,000 MILES OR SO, SOMEONE SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND ATTEMPT TO CORRECT IT. I JUST HAD IT FIXED FOR THE SECOND TIME AND THE COST WAS $600.00. NLM

STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
PER EMISSIONS RECALL # 556 THE OYGEN SENSOR WAS REPLACE ON 02-08-95. THE REST OF THE RECALL COMPONENTS WERE EXAMINED AND DEAMED FINE. IT IS NOW THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD NUTS AND BOLTS ARE FAILING AND CHRYSLER DOES NOT THINK THAT THEY/CHRYSLER SHOULD NEED TO REPLACE THEM. I AM TRYING TO GET ANSWERS IN TERMS OF IF ALL THESE COMPONENTS WERE STATED IN THE RECALL BECAUSE THEY FAIL, WHY WERE THEY NOT ALL REPLACED AT THE TIME OF ORIGINAL SERVICE AND NOW THAT THEY ARE FAILING NOW, SHOULDN'T IT STILL BE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL? THE REPLACEMENT OF THE OXYGEN SENSOR HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FAULTY THE NUTS AND BOLTS THAT HOLD THE SECURE FIT OF THE MANIFOLD TO THE ENGINE TO PREVENT EMISSION LEAKAGE.

STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
AFTER APPLYING BRAKES ON RAINSLICK ROAD VEHICLE HYDROPLANED INTO THE REAREND OF A PICKUP. I HIT THE STEERING WHEEL TWICE BEFORE THE SEATBELT 'CAUGHT'.... 2 BROKEN TEETH, BRAIN TRAUMA & CONCUSSION, MANGLED SPINE/SURGERY PENDING. FIRST ACCIDENT. NO ONE WILL CLAIM LIABILITY FOR THE SEATBELT NOT WORKING AND THE AIRBAG HAS BEEN TREATED AS A NON-ISSUE. MY JEEP HAS BEEN 'REPAIRED' SANS SEATBELT.... DAIMLER-CHRYSLER INVESTIGATION PENDING. ALL I ASKED, IN THE BEGINNING, WAS FOR MY SEATBELT TO BE REPLACED... NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK.... NOW I WILL FIGHT AS MY QUALITY OF LIFE HAS BEEN COMPROMISED PERMANENTLY AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO ARGUE OVER A DEFECTIVE SEATBELT BEING REPLACED... AT THE VERY LEAST! I AM SEVERELY INJURED AND QUITE FRANKLY AM ANGRY, NOW, THAT I HAVE TO FIGHT FOR WHAT IS 'RIGHT'. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT ANY TIME AS MY LIFE IS NOW HOMEBASED WITH THE EXCEPTION OF NUMEROUS DOCTOR VISITS.*AK
