Grand Cherokee

  • 156,000 miles
I have owned 8 Jeep and now have a beautiful dealershipl maintained Grand Cherokee limited 4.7L in my driveway with a bad engine. At 100K a rod bearing went bad and after that was fixed by me with great expense it now sits in the driveway with low compression and will not start. I have searched and found hundreds of ads with blown engines just in my area of southern California. There seems to be some common design flaws in the 4.7L that Chrysler corporation has been hiding and we the people have been paying for it. Dealers deny any problems but yet on any given day the classifies are full of them. I love the vehicle in general that's why I have owned so many but feel taken advantage of and can't afford to drive a Chrysler piece of crap anymore. I was stranded on the highway like many of us were and put in a perilous situations because of it with family in the car plus I was on crutches. Chrysler should being offering assistance because of their faults. I also just got done repairing the faulty blend door because of the lack of visibility.

Defroster does not clear windshield, blower worsens fog. After brief use of vehicle condensation builds on passenger side of windshield and prohibits clear vision.
