Summary of Complaint
PLEASE ACCEPT THIS EMAIL AS A REQUEST FOR HELP WITH A COMMON PROBLEM CONCERNING JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OWNERS AND PROBLEMS HAVING TO DO WITH ?BLEND DOORS? IN THE HVAC SYSTEM. MY VEHICLE, WHICH MY WIFE DRIVES, HEATS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, BUT BLOWS COLD AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. IT OCCURRED ALL AT ONCE. IT IS ALSO A REAL SAFETY HAZARD AS IT CREATES AN ICING HAZARD ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE COST OF REPAIR THROUGH A DEALERSHIP APPEARS TO RANGE FROM $900 TO $1500. I HAVE SENT AN EMAIL THROUGH THE JEEP.COM WEBSITE JUST BEFORE TYPING THIS TO YOU. I ALSO BELIEVE THAT THE APPARENT INACTION OF THE MANUFACTURER TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IN A FAVORABLE MANNER IS RECKLESS ENDANGERMENT OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC. SINCE THEY ARE NOT ADDRESSING IT MANY ARE SEEKING LESS EXPENSIVE REMEDIES AND SHORT-CUT FIXES, OR ATTEMPTING TO DO THE REPAIR ON THEIR OWN. I CAN SEE WHERE THIS COULD THEN FLOOD THE USED CAR MARKET WITH FAULTY AND SHODDY REPAIRS. I HAVE TO QUESTION WHETHER OR NOT IT IS COST EFFECTIVE TO KEEP THE VEHICLE AFTER IT IS REPAIRED. THERE ARE EVEN NUMEROUS POSTS THAT INDICATE THE DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT FIXING THE CORRECT PROBLEMS WITH ADDED EXPENSE TO CUSTOMERS. AND STILL OTHERS THAT INDICATE THAT THE DEALERS DO NOT WANT TO SPEND THE TIME TO DO THE REPAIRS DUE TO THE DIFFICULTY AND TIME CONSUMED, AND THE VERY REAL POSSIBILITY THAT THIS REPAIR WILL SPARK OTHER PROBLEMS. THERE ARE SOME WHO NOTE THAT TAKING THE DASH OUT AND REINSTALLING IT CAUSES ALL KINDS OF PROBLEMS WITH MALFUNCTIONING CONTROLS. AGAIN, IT?S A REAL SAFETY PROBLEM IN NORTHERN AREAS OF THE COUNTRY. AND MANY PEOPLE IN THESE AREAS LOOK FOR 4 WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES AS A SAFETY FACTOR FOR DRIVING IN JUST THOSE CONDITIONS WHEN HEAT IS NEEDED IN ORDER TO SEE CLEARLY. IT CERTAINLY RAISES THE QUESTION OF WHETHER THERE HAVE BEEN ACCIDENTS AND INJURY FROM THIS KIND OF ISSUE. I HAVE NOT YET DECIDED HOW TO EFFECTUATE THE REPAIRS TO MY 2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED. *TR
