Hi, my husband and I just recently bought a used and what seemed like a very clean and taken care 02 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited with 104,000 miles from a dealer. The carfax on it was great and brought the value up on it which made our decision to buy but in the past 5 months of owning it, we've done nothing but repair after repair on it. Here are a list of problems we've ran into and had fixed... The oil thermostat started leaking and was replaced, the oil temperature sensor went bad and was replaced, the heated seats now no longer work(haven't fixed these yet), the hood struts are bad(a very common problem-haven't fixed yet), the rear pinion oil seal started leaking so that was repaired, and now we have a check engine light coming on for what used to be a small emissions leak that we thought was because of the gas cap but now is coded as a large leak. So after taking it into a auto shop to get looked at, the plastic fuel tank was dropped and found that the fuel tank had warped at the top and that's why we were smelling gas fumes every time we filled up on fuel. How scary is that if we had a spark of some sort!! Not only that, but after further research online, because of the gas tank location on the Jeep, if we were in a rear end collision there could be a possible explosion which is most likely to cause death of anyone in the vehicle. I am a mom of a two year old and currently 8 months pregnant. This is our main vehicle, so reading up on this scares me to not want to drive it. Apparently Chrysler recalled Jeeps because of this issue but only did for the years 93-98 even though the problem exists in the years from 93-04s. And the only thing they are repairing in the 93-98s is installing a rear hitch which is suppose to help protect the tank in a collision but doesn't really solve the issue. I am very disappointed in our decision to buy this Jeep. We cannot afford to keep dumping money into repairs and to know that our Jeep is a possible death trap just turns my stomach. I cannot believe that Chrysler won't do more to protect their customers from possible death. How are we going to afford getting another vehicle at this point with a baby on the way? The total cost of repairs alone that we've done are nearing $1500. The cost of the Jeep $8900. So do I think it was worth the buy, absolutely not!!! Will Chrysler help us out, NO! They just don't care.
