What owners report
MY CAR LEAKS DURING RAIN FROM THE SUNROOF TO THE BLUE HOSE DRAIN AND FLOODED MY CAR. WHICH MESSED UP THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR SAYING IT'S OVER HEATING BUT IT'S NOT IT'S THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TELLING THE COMPUTER IN CAR THAT IT'S HOW WHEN ITS NOT AND NOW MY TRANSMISSION IS MESSED UP WE THINK. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT JEEP DEALER IN CERRITOS, CA FOR 2 DAYS NOW AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT WRONG.
ENGINE STALLS AT SPEEDS ABOVE 60 MPH. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAYS AND HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST WEEK.
THE SUNROOF DRAIN DESIGN WAS FAULTY. DURING RAINING WEATHER, THE SUNROOF DRAINS CANNOT HANDLE THE COLLECTED RAIN AND THE RAIN WILL OVERFLOW AND GO INTO THE CAR. THE RAIN THAT OVERFLOWS FALLS INTO THE FRONT PANEL AND HAS CAUSED MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL FAILURES AND SHORTAGES. MOST IMPORTANTLY THE WATER HAS DAMAGED THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND HEADLIGHT CONTROLS WHICH CAUSES THEM TO SHUT OFF WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE.
WHEN CRUISE IS SET CAR EXCELS IN SPEED *TT *TR
FIRST ANNOYANCE WAS THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. IT FAILED TO OPEN THE DOOR AT AROUND 45,000 MILES. THEN THE REAR PASSENGER INSIDE DOOR HANDLE JUST CRUMBLED OUT OF NOWHERE AROUND 47,000 MILES. THEN AROUND 50,000 MILES THE BRAKES 'FELT DIFFERENT' WHEN BRAKING AND IT FELT TO HARD TO PRESS DOWN ON THE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT HARD AS A ROCK THEN THE ABS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND AFTER A DIAGNOSIS I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHENEVER WE WENT THROUGH A PUDDLE OF WATER ON A TURN THE JEEPS STEERING WOULD LOCK UP AND JUST KEPT MOVING FORWARD & NOT TURNING.
