Repeated failure of blower fan for which there is apparently not a suitable fix from jeep. Current fix is either (a) part from supplier other than jeep which fails every 6-9 months or (b) jeep recommended part which reduced air volume so dramatically that defrosting windows is unsafe. Failure of the blower motor is also unsafe due to the inability to defrost the windows. *tr

I own a 2001 jeep grand cherokee with dual climate control. Whenever i try and use the heat it does not work, i have no front defrost for my windshield. The only air coming out of my heating system is cold air. It is because of a faulty blend air door. This can be a dangerous problem if in the cold weather the windshield fogs up, there is no way to defrost it. Visibility: defroster/defogger system:windshield:blower.…

I have a 2001 jeep grand cherokee with about 35,000 miles. The heating system has recently stopped working. I checked this problem on the internet and it seems that many 1999-2004 jeep grand cherokees have this problem. It appears to be quite costly to repair. It obviously affects visibility on the windshield. *tr

Dual side heating and air is not working properly on my 2001 jeep grand cherokee. Passenger side is ice cold constantly, while my driver's side is working properly for now, but for how much longer? After a lot of reading of other articles, there should most absolutely be a recall, especially if i have to pay that kind of money to get it fixed, then i should be reimbursed. *tr
