The contact owns a 2001 Jeep Cherokee. The vehicle was purchased during the winter and the contact did not notice any failures at the time. Once the summer began, he noticed that the air conditioning was not producing cold air. During that same summer, he took the vehicle to the dealer for a diagnostic. They found no failures or leaks, but added fluid to the air conditioning system. This repaired the failure for the remainder of the summer. The following year, the failure recurred. A private mechanic was unable to find any failure and added liquid to the air conditioning system again. This remedy lasted towards the end of the summer; however, the failure recurred and progressively worsened the following year. The fluid added to the air conditioning system only remedied the failure for no more than four weeks. The contact could no longer afford to keep going back to the mechanic. He took the vehicle back to the shop that repairs air conditioning in vehicles and the mechanic stated that there was a leak in the evaporation in the air conditioning evaporator. The technician stated that the failure should be under warranty and referred the contact back to the dealer. The vehicle failed inspection and was taken back to the dealer for repair. The dealer stated that the leak from the evaporation in the air conditioning evaporator was not the cause of the failure. The contact believes that there should be a way to determine the cause of the failure and provide a solution. The failure mileage was 2,000 and current mileage was 53,000.
