Low oil pressure: I change my oil as specified in manual. Now all of a sudden I have a drop in oil pressure. When driving the Jeep my oil pressure is now at no more than 25psi and it drops to zero when idle. On my last oil change I had the engine checked and there were no cracks and no misfire. I had a tune up done on the vehicle in Sept 2008. Engine and everything was running fine. As for that day I have to get the Jeep to mechanic to take a look. This past summer the Jeep also would over heat in 90 degree weather and it mostly happened when the ac was turned on. Took it mechanic and couldn't find anything wrong we replaced the thermostat with a lower temp and seemed to fix the problem. Then about 2 days later the Jeep started to overheat again. Replaced the relay as it tested bad. While replacing the relay the fan broke. The blades completely separated from the fan motor in a whole piece. Replaced fan. Never thought I had any coolant leaks and never found any but the coolant will not stay in the reservoir. It just disappears. I had the engine inspected again and no cracks and the oil appeared to be fine. There are thousands of complaints for this what is going to be done" anything" it's not like I can afford anew car or thousands in parts and labor. Also have other issues I well 1st another complaint for the electrical issues.

Bought vehicle new and performed regular maintenance. Had to replace brake rotors at 62,000. At 78,000 miles engine overheated; verified fan, radiator, and water pump in working order and replaced thermostat and temperature sensor. Engine continued to overheat with unexplained coolant loss. No leakage and clean oil. Replaced head gasket anyway and noticed no cracks in head. Still runs hot and loses coolant somehow. At 80,000 miles engine developed miss after replacing coil and checking fuel and firing systems removed head again and pulled lifters. Bottom of one lifter was ground off resulting in some wear of cam lobe. Replaced lifters and valve springs. Fixed engine miss. At 82,000 miles oil gauge showed 80 pounds of oil pressure until engine totally warm then dropped to 40 lbs. Also showed 40 lbs when keyed moved to on position with engine not running. Replaced oil pressure sending unit. Now engine runs 40-45 lbs when cold and drops to 10 lbs when running after totally warm. When stopping at lights after driving with warm engine, oil pressure drops to 0 and check gauges light comes on. Purchased a high volume oil pump and will see if this corrects that problem. This is totally unacceptable for a vehicle with 83,000 miles that was purchased new and well maintained. Furthermore when checking with other owners these problems and more seem to be common for this year/model.

The contact owns a 2000 Jeep Cherokee. While driving approximately 60 mph, the contact heard a loud shuttering noise coming from the vehicle. Thirty minutes later, the engine warning light illuminated on the instrument control panel. He took the vehicle to a dealer and a representative stated that the coil burned and the engine had excessive carbon. The engine was cleaned out and the coil was repaired. Immediately after the repair was made, the vehicle failed. He took the vehicle back to the dealer and they stated that the cylinder cracked from excessive heating. The vehicle is currently being repaired. The manufacturer did not provide any assistance. The failure mileage was 74,000.

I have had engine overheating problems on my 2000 Jeep Cherokee, door actuators going bad, and also oil pressure gauge going to zero, and also loosing anti freeze. I have replaced the head once for the coolant loss and didn't do any good, I've had the thermostat switched for overheating and also the radiator fan, no help.

Engine was knocking, check engine light came on, diagonistic test showed 6th cylinder was misfiring lifter was damaged. The camshaft was replaced as well as the lifters and headgasket. I do not understand how a 2000 vehicle with only 81000 kms needs $2000 worth of repairs done. The dealer also advised me that he can't understand how this is required either. He advised me to call 1-800- 465-2001 to voice my complaint. He also gave me the old part to send back to Chrysler. The 1-800 # I called advised me that they will put my inforamtion in my file, but they could not do anything else for me nor did they want the part. I would like feed back on this complaint as I am not happy with my experiences with Chrysler thus far. Are the parts they are using to build these vehicles not up to par" ???"

Cylinder head cracked at only 70,000 miles allowing coolant into the oil sump, potentially leading to engine failure or, as dealer stated, "engine may seize completely.

'check gauges' light comes on multiple times, temperature gauge to redline for a few minutes, then back to normal. Brought in to be checked/fixed 5 times, 'no leak', 'no problem detected', 'radiator hose loose', 'added coolant' until this last time: 'cracked head'; also oil gauge recently shows no pressure with great frequency, as with temperature gauge. I had been adding coolant every few weeks. I believe this problem could seize the engine while vehicle is in motion.
