2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4WD 4dr taken in because of brake failure. Was told drums had warped and to permanently fix problem would be $800. To temporarily fix it was, $119.99, but the problem could come back. My claim is that there are problems with the vehicles' front brakes and that after as little as 5,000 miles, the steering wheel and front wheels "shake" and that drivers encounter severe vibrations through the steering wheel, floor, seat and pedals when the brakes are applied.

When applying the brakes, the brake pedal would pumped up and down and the steering wheel would shimmy up and down and to the left and right. The higher the speed the worse the problem. When I brought it to the dealership I insisted that the service manager take a ride with me. He only had to drive it a short distance before he knew exactly what the problem was. He said the rotors were warped. I asked if that was normal, especially with such low mileage. He told me that it was an ongoing problem that Chrysler new about. When the rotors heated up they were not cooling down properly due to a defect which in turn causes the rotors to warp. He said they instructed to tell owners that the problem was due to wear and tear and that it was not covered by the warranty, therefore passing the expense on to the customer. He also told me that if the customer complained to Chrysler, and only then, would Chrysler fix the problem at no charge and would put the repairs under a "good will warranty". the service manager said he would not put me through the trouble and automatically put it under the "good will warranty". especially since I have had numerouse other problems with the Jeep since the first day I drove it off the lot. I've had the check engine light come on 4 times. Each time it was a different deffective part. I've also had electrical problems which caused the dome lights to flash on and off, all sorts of beeping noises and numerous other distractions in the interior. It's also left me stranded on the New Jersey turnpike

Bought a new 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee [xxx] the ft. Brake rotors have warped for the second time in 30,000 miles. Driving with these warped rotors causes the steering wheel to shake violently and brake application at the wheels to be uneven. This is a very unsafe condition especially on wet or icy surfaces. The dealer refuses to replace the rotors under warranty. A call to Chrysler customer service produced the same result, no warranty replacement. The dealer & manufacturer insist on calling this a "worn brake" problem when in fact it is the result of defective brake rotors. It should be noted that the ft pads & rotors were replace once already under warranty at 11,000 miles due to warped rotors, the pads at this time show less than 50% wear. This is the same problem that effected 1996 Grand Cherokee, that defect resulted in an official recall and reimbursement for those who have paid to have the defective rotors replaced. I feel this series of Grand Cherokee warrants the same recall. This is a serious safety issue.

Applying brakes lightly at speeds in excess of 45 mph causes vehicle to vibrate excessively and pull off a straight line. The vibration has been increasing for sometime but the pulling caused me to have a mechanic inspect the vehicle due to safety concerns if the brakes were required in an emergency situation. The Jeep service center claimed warping of the rotors as they have for all other cases. This seems to be a defective part.
