“My SUV has been having the same problems and I have taken it to the dealership many times; that truck has a serious electrical problem in addition to the same problems like the engine smoking, engine light on and failure of radio and all brake lights.”

NHTSA complaint #10058823, filed 2004-02, 10,000 miles

“For no specific reason the windows on the Jeep cherokee grand Laredo suddenly drop in their channels and will not come back up. I had a similar failure on a 2000 model previously owned, and now with my 2002 I had the same issue on december 31 2005 with the rear driver side window, and yesterday with the passenger front window. This morning I called Jeep customer service and was given the typical runaround. I have extended warranty and tried to get the deductible ($100 per occurrence) waived and that didn't work either. …”

“Brakes have been squeaking constantly. I brought my 2002 Jeep cherokee to the dealer 3 times and they have yet to fix the problem. Also my check engine light has appeared twice and I have had to pay for them to simply turn it off when there was no problem. I have paid well over $600 for these problems and I have only 29,000 miles on the car!!!!!!!!”
