    2004 jeep cherokee, twice now the fuse to the fuel injector has blown within a month rendering the car undrivable. Going down the road the car cuts off, you cannot steer it, and the brakes seem not to work well at all, you practically have to stand on them. This nearly got me hit today going through a red light. The first time it happened, i was going down a hill and barely got the car stopped before hitting a tree.…

    While sitting at a stoplight, on two (2) occasions my 2008 jeep grand cherokee 4x4 suddenly accelerated on its own while my foot was on the brake and revved up (throttle surge), then the tach went back to normal, and the engine went back to idling. Took it to the dealer i bought it from, they checked the on-board computer and no incident showed; they told me they called chrysler but no one has reported this before…

    My daughter was driving her 1999 jeep grand cherokee down a twisty road at 40 mph, the car suddenly began to accelerate. She applied the brakes and the car would not stop or slow down. She tried to pull up on the gas pedal but the pedal would not release. She then turned the car off and managed to pull over to the side of the road. This happened one week after we had it at the dealership to replace the crank shaft…

    My car has major problems and i can't afford to fix, then i find the problem that i have is due to the automaker's problem because the car is on recalls for the problems i am having. I received no notices on any recall, and when i got on the web-site to check for recalls there are as many as 10 major problems with my car and jeep. Some could cause me to crash or even explode while driving. Where are my recall…

    Fuel emission control canister ticks and sounds like a lifter tick - gas mileage is 11.3 miles to the gallon. Strong gas odors can be smelled inside the truck once the gas tank level reaches the 1/2 way mark. Dealership apologizes but says there's nothing they can do. The truck is 3 months old and has 4400 miles on it. Help i love my jeep
