problem #2

Apr 022015

Cherokee 4WD 8-cyl

  • 120,000 miles
Interior door handles on this Jeep are faulty and break with only normal use. I called Jeep and they said $400 a door panel plus labor and they can't just fix door handle they said whole panel has to be replaced. The two in front are completely broke and back two have cracks. I went online with this issue and found out there are thousands of others like me in this situation. Because of this cost in repairs I feel like Jeep has put me in a unsafe situation for my family. The Jeep is a sport limited and is flawless in condition, except for these door handles. A recall needs to be made before someone gets stuck in there Jeep during an accident and can't get out because of a broken door handle. Because of all the forums on this issue my family and I are driving are other vehicle as much as possible until I can figure out how to get this problem fixed. I am hoping I do not have to sell this rig because of broken door handles, but with a baby in back I am not feeling like Jeep is looking out for the true safety of there customers at this point in time.
