Severe rust all over the body but especially on the frame. Have had multiple components fail and crack, now taking in water through corners of the roof through rust holes. Passenger side of frame likely to sever under further driving. Rust on the brackets holding the fuel tank to the vehicle created a hole in the fuel tank. Part was replaced, no picture.

This is the 3rd time I am complaining about a water leak in my 96 Cherokee driver side floor. The problem started 1 year ago and I have spent a over $900 to have it fixed by the dealer (antwerpen, baltimore, md 21228). Since this is the 3rd occurrence in one year, I think the problem is a structural defect and that Chrysler should stand behind it and fix it. It goes back to antwerpen on 4/5 for another go around. I concept is they are staling and waiting for the warranty on the 1st repair to run out, but sorry this isn't going to happen, even it I have to take it there weekly until somebody fixes it properly.

This is the second time I have had water leakage from under the dash onto the driver's side floor soaking everything. The occurence was 5/2/03, problem fixed at dealer (antwerpen, baltimore) for $766. Now less than a year later the same problem is occuring. I am due to take iit in next week, how much do you want to bet the problem will be diagnoised as leaking in a different place so they won't have to honor the orginial repair warranty. This is almost a given. First of all this problem should not be happening at all. There obviously is a structural problem with the truck when it was made. I have also read several compliants from other owners and Jeep/Chrysler refuses to fix the problem. I do not call this customer service at all expecially when it is the second time around.
