Example complaints
Transmission and drivetrain: “We bought a 1999 grand cherokee limited Jeep, all wheel drive. After many, many unsuccessful repairs, I am still unable to drive this vehicle due to front drive train as well I can?t hear myself talk due to the whining noise the rear end makes. I have done extensive research on the internet and there is wealth of web pages dedicated to Jeep owners with the same exact problems. It is no doubt a factory yet they turn a blind eye. We are looking for a group that has possible filed a class action suite, could you help us. We don?t know what else to do.”
