ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:INTERIOR/UNDER DASH, VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
LATEST FAILURE IS THE HEATER BLOWER MOTOR BLOCK CONNECTOR, THIS ITEM SHORTED OUT CAUSING THE SMELL OF BURNING IN THE VEHICLE. AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN AT THE REPAIR FACILITY STATED THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS IN OTHER JEEP VEHICLES. HE STATED THE PROBLEM IS THE CONNECTOR GOES FROM A 14GA WIRE ON THE FRONT SIDE(HOT) TO A 12GA WIRE TO THE COMPONENTS OF THE VEHICLE. JEEP HAS STATED THEY CANNOT TELL IF THE SHORT IS A MANUFACTURE RELATED PROBLEM, AND COMMENTS BY SERVICE MANAGERS LEAD ME TO BELIEVE THEY LEAN TOWARD IT BEING A CUSTOMER PROBLEM. CUSTOMER/TECHNICAN ASSISTANCE AT THE CORPRATE LEVEL WILL NOT EVEN INVESTIGATE/INSPECT UNLESS THERE IS A FLAME NOTED, SEEMS A LITTLE LATE TO ME!
