I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee.. I have the same as all other 2000 jgc owners are having. Been using coolant every few weeks needs to be topped off.. fan was replace due to recall. Had to replace fan control under headlight. Last year was overheating. Replaced water pump/ thermostat. Overheating again. Just replaced thermostat today. Did not fix the problem. Transmission has been shifting hard for the past year and a half. I replaced parts in transmission as suggested by dealer. But it did not fix problem..replaced radiator around may of 09 still having cooling problems. I replaced so many sensors that have failed that I cant remember them all. I still have 1 more year of payments on this vehicle.. its hard to make payments when I have been buying so many parts to try to keep this car running. Bad door seals, they are too small (short or shrinking) it lets water come in back passenger area. Always smells musty inside.. black mold in the rainy season. Taillight brake light on one only works part time. Replaced 3 door latches. Including one on rear hatch.

I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, with a 4.0 liter inline 6 cylinder, and doing a bit or research I have found that is common on this car to have a overheating problem, due to cracked cylinder head which is a major job...to fix this problem will cost about $ $3000.

The radiator fan blades on my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee fractured and separated while the motor was running. This is consistent with NHTSA campaign id number: 06V199000 and corresponding DaimlerChrysler recall no. F25, however, this recall was only for vehicles built from January 31, 2000 through June 12, 2000. My Jeep was constructed in December of 1999 so my fan is not included in this recall. I'd like clarification on why model year 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee's that were built in December of 1999 are not included in the recall even thought the engineering and construction of the recalled item and corresponding fracture and separation of the radiator fan are the same.

Jeep 2000 Grand Cherokee Laredo inline 6cyl I recently experienced low coolant and oil pressure problems. I had the water pump replaced, the oil sensor switch replaced, and the oil pump replaced. The repairs were done individually in that order. I am still experiencing low coolant although the car does not seem to overheat. I recently had a pressure test and there were no leaks. When the car is started in the morning I have the proper oil pressure. As soon as the car warms up the oil pressure fluctuates and eventually activates the alert indicator (bell sound). The engine sounds fine and there are no performance problems. I brought the car back to the service station that did the repairs. The mechanic suggested that I use a heavier oil for the pressure problem. I will let you know the results. This may be the last attempt before an engine overhaul. Jeep should have a recall for these problems.

Engine overheating sporadically starting about 3 yrs. Ago. We replaced water pump per dealer but did not solve problem. Dealer said to replace hidden temperature relay - we did that. In meantime engine over heated cracking cylinder head between #3&4 cylinder causing hardships. We still now have the loss of coolant problem and loss of oil pressure ongoing. Needing oil pump change. Ongoing problems with all of this same problem oil pressure drops off & on to zero. Coolant still leaks into engine.

My car has major problems and I can't afford to fix, then I find the problem that I have is due to the automaker's problem because the car is on recalls for the problems I am having. I received no notices on any recall, and when I got on the web-site to check for recalls there are as many as 10 major problems with my car and Jeep. Some could cause me to crash or even explode while driving. Where are my recall notices?

I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo that has multiple problems that many people have. They are not coincidental. I have the mysterious coolant loss that requires me to fill my Jeep with coolant every three days. Several mechanics have not found in leaks. However in hopes of fixing the problem, I had my water pump replaced, two days later....my low coolant indicator pops up. Then my oil pressure is ridiculous going from zero to max and then making my check gauges light come on. Had the oil pressure sensor replaced because it was supposedly leaking....still having my oil pressure gauge go crazy. My A/C has ceased working as well and now the passenger rear door lock doesn't want to cooperate. I am very upset to the fact that hundreds of people are having the same problems with the 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. This vehicle must be recalled! this is a link to a forum of hundreds of people having the same issues. www.carsurvey.org/viewmorecomments_review_78839_2.html.

My 2000 Jeep Cherokee's electric fan broke and cut into the radiator. I did a search for recalls and there is a recall for this fan, but here is the real problem: The coolant fan relay switch module fails and the fan doesn't properly cool the engine, then the poorly designed head cracks between the #3 and #4 head and all the coolant seeps into the cylinder area where the coolant is burned. Then without proper cooling, it destroys the engine. (recall to replace bad heads).

Engine cooling system failure. Replaced fan clutch, thermostat and water pump. Engine still overheats at idle speed. Just over 100,000 miles.

When I am idling or moving at a slow speed my temperature will rise causing my vehicle to over heat. I'm also losing coolant very fast but can not see where it is going.

Just disgusted with the number of repairs I have needed to make to this vehicle. In the last six years the following repairs have been done: Brakes replaced 3 times and need to be done again door window motor cooling fan, radiator evaporator coils hood lifters-hood will not stay up drivers door clunks starter compressor leaking axle seals and now I have a cracked head on the engine. The Jeep just failed out of the blue. Glad I was close to home. This vehicle is a lemon. Buy american again--most likely not. Are our "american" vehicles being built with inferior parts" or are they programmed to be obsolete within a few years"
