The driver's blend door, and the passenger's blend door are not working, causing only cold air to come in on passenger and on driver side causing fog build up on the front windshield which prevents drivers vision and could cause a major accident. A known problem by jeep/dodge/chrysler but never had a recall to fix the hazardous and dangerous problem. *tr

My 2000 jeep grand cherokee with 90,000 miles has had problems with defrosting and heating for the past year. When it is cold or rainy the windshield will not clear not matter what settings i use. I get snow and ice accumulating on my foggy windshield and i am forced to pull over in dangers conditions and scrap my windows. Recently my heat has stopped working on the drivers side and i looked for information online…

Electrical System · Visibility
The hvac system on our 2000 jeep grand cherokee limited has broken and is unable to direct air at the proper temperature to the proper places. The defect appears to be related to electronically controlled dampers in the ductwork that have failed. This prevents our defroster from working as effectively as it should and is also an irritant to the driver when it's 110 degrees outside in the texas heat. Googling the…

I own a 2000 jeep grand cherokee. The heating works fine on the driver's side of the vehicle, but only cold air blows from the vents on the passenger side. My internet review suggests that it won't be long before i lose heat on the driver's side. This is apparently a very common problem with jeep grand cherokees ... And chrysler knows it. The fix is very expensive ... Blend air door actuator, or something like that.…

My jeep grand cherokee was operating perfectly, and apparently the "blend door" or something in the heating/cooling system is messed up. It starts blowing cold air for no reason some times, even to the point of fogging the windshield in cold weather. *tr

I own a 2000 jeep grand cherokee limited with 151,400 miles. The events leading up to the failure of the ventilation system were (1) rapid fogging of front windshield,(2) fogging of front passenger windows,(3) failure of passenger heat while still maintaining driver heat function, and (4) only cold air release on passenger side of jeep. Consequently,(1) the windshield and front windows do not defog, and (2) no heat…

I started hearing creaking noises inside the dash several months ago. This would normally occur when i turned the engine off, or turned the heat or a/c off. A week ago the passenger side vents starting blowing cold air only, regardless of temperature settings. I was told at my mechanic that this was a known blend door issue with 1999 to 2004 jeep grand cherokees. I was told this would be approximately $1000 to…

Visibility: defroster/defogger system:windshield:blower i have a 2000 jeep that the defogger does not work properly, and from what i have learned, chrysler has known about this problem for some time and has failed to act on the problem as far as a recall! This is a dangerous issue with most jeeps. This failure occurs everyday due to the fact the blend doors are broken as part of faulty manufacturing. I can't even…

Automatic climate control system acts erratically. Regardless of what settings are used, hot air will blow out one side while cold blows out the other. Sometimes which side is cold or hot will switch. I am filing this with the nhtsa because this is a major safety hazard. Because my automatic climate control doesn't work correctly, i have no windshield defroster. We have been receiving a lot of rain lately and the…

Climate controls stopped working. No warning just one day started blowing warm air out of passenger side and cold air out of driver side. The winter season is upon us now and somehow i need to find $1400.00 so i don't freeze while commuting back and fourth from my job. Its a blend door that stopped working? After searching around for an answer, i find that this problem has affected an overwhelming number of other…
