FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
FUEL SENDING UNIT WHICH IS ATTACHEED TO TOP OF THE GAS TANK DOES NOT REGISTER ON THE DASH. SENDING UNIT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, JEEP/CHRYSLER CANNOT LOCATE A REPLACEMENT PART. ON THE INTERNET THERE WERE TWO LOCATIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY THAT HAD IT LISTED. WHEN CALLED, THEY DID NOT HAVE IT IN STOCK. THERE ARE NO AFTER MARKET PRODUCTS FOR FUEL SENDING UNIT, AND MANUFACTURER ALSO STOPPED MAKING THEM. *AK

SEATS
DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BROKE - ONLY 1/2 THE SIDE IS NOW ATTACHED, HAPPENED WHILE I WAS GETTING OUT OF VEHICLE. HAD I BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, I'M SURE I WOULDN'T BE HERE NOW. DEALER WANTS $900 TO FIX. ACCORDING TO AUTO-PARTS STORE, IT'S COMMON FOR THE SEATS TO BREAK! IF THIS ISN'T A SAFETY ISSUE I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS! ONE EXPECTS TO HAVE TO REPLACE CERTAIN PARTS ON A USED VEHICLE, BUT NOT A SEAT! THE PART THAT ANCHORS THE SEAT IN PLACE EITHER HAS A DESIGN FLAW, OR THE PARTS ARE STRESSED AND BREAK. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT MAY HAVE HAPPENED TO OTHERS. *AK
