2000 Jeep Cherokee engine stopped without warning.** answer required***. there was a hole in the piston. After the dealer inspected the vehicle, they stated there was not enough coolant in the system which caused the front frost plug heater to come out and that the no 1 and 2 piston melted down. The consumer had to replace the engine with only 42,000 miles on the vehicle. The rotors were replaced twice. The rubber around all four doors shrunk to the point that wind and water would come through. Periodically, when the vehicle was locked the headlights and taillights would come on and go off for a few minutes. The chrome on the wheels was corroded and coming off. The front passenger electric lock was making a strange noise when the doors were lock or unlocked.

My 2000 Jeep Cherokee was purchased new in 2000. Since then, my front brakes and rotors have had to be replaced every 7000 miles. The dealer replaced them at 7000 miles and after that refused. Said it was normal wear and tear after 10,000 miles and not under warranty. Said it was because I drive my vehicle for work (post office) and stop a lot. There are 35 pages of complaints on the internet stating exactly the same problem at every 7000 miles and 54 complaints on your site with the same problem. When the rotors warp, the car is very difficult to stop safely at 40 to 55 mph. Apparently, Chrysler has had this complaint since 1998 thru 2003. Why hasn't there been a recall" a safety violation"

At speeds of 50 to 60 miles an hour while braking or if a bump is hit in the road, front tire vibration occurs and will only stop when speed is lowered to below 40 mph. After typing in "Jeep Cherokee front end vibration" on internet search did I find that this problem is present in all Cherokee. It seems that the problem stems from the brake calipers warping the rotors every 8-10 thousand miles. This is ridiculous and is a safety issue. This vibration moves the steering side to side violently.

These vehicles definitely have a problem with front end vibration and rotors. 5401 miles I need new rotors, at 23,000 miles new brakes and resurfacing rotors and replacing bearings. Dealer now says it is normal wear. I don't drive the vehicle that far maybe 20 miles a day if I'm lucky. Now this is going to be an ongoing problem with this vehicle and would like to have something done about it. Vehicle also making noises dealer cannot hear or duplicate. **dimsii IVOQ entry posted after 12/12/02 cut over to artemis**768034
