2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited review from North America
"My wife and I love the 2002 Grand Cherokee, but refuse to continue replacing rotors, Chrysler HELP!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Warped front brake rotors.
General comments?
The Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited is comfortable and a very nice looking vehicle! My only issue is with the brakes. In two instances with my Jeep the dealer has been responsible for the warping problem. The first instance was at 15,000 miles when I had the Jeep dealer rotate the tires and when I got the vehicle back the steering wheel was nearly jerked from my hands. The second instance was recently when I purchased a new set of Goodyear tires for my Jeep @38,000 miles. I got my Jeep back and again it just about jerked the steering wheel out of my hands at stops (or slowing down) on the interstate. Both of these problems occurred after the Jeep dealers' removed and re-in-stalled the wheels. Possibly an over torque problem? Neither dealer would admit it was their fault! Maybe it was just a coincidence. (Yeah, Right!)
