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

Air only blows one speed only at constant speed when accelerating and cuts off when braking. The air only blows hot air and the temp can not be changed. The air/heat started to not work correctly on the passenger side first then reached the drivers side. There is loud creaking noises coming from the dash when the unit is turned on or when the car is cut off. It can even be heard outside of the vehicle. *nm

My jeep dealer told me i had to have the entire brake system redone-and i did- $600+ bill. Now 10k miles later, the brakes are again pulsing. The dealer now says the rotors need to be resurface-same ones they replaced 10k miles ago and…

Recall generation 3 seat belts. I have actually had problems with most manufacturer seat belts, including aircraft belts (pacific scientific). I selected "20" in the failures slot so this will get through. Using my skills as an aircraft tech. I have also inspected auto belts and found most of them regardless of manufacturer to be '!@#$%. *nlm
