problem #3

Nov 302002

Grand Cherokee 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 52,000 miles
Anti-glare chromatic fluid is leaking from driver's side mirror due to a defective seal in this mirror causing poor vision problems. Dealer quoting $440 to repair this safety issue. Believe this problem should be considered a safety issue since it is effecting driver's vison of oncoming traffic during lane changes during backing of the vehicle.
