2001 Jeep Cherokee electrical system problems

“OVERHEAD DISPLAY CEASES TO WORK. ONLINE FORUMS HAVE POINTED TO A FAULTY WIRING HARNESS THAT HAS TO BE REPLACED AT CONSIDERABLE COST. IF THE HARNESS IS FAULTY COULD IT CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM?”

“THIS JEEP WILL RUN FINE, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO RED LIGHTS AND IDLE, THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF AND NOT TURN ON AGAIN FOR ATLEAST 10 MINUTES. SPENT ABOUT 3,000 USD TO FIX AT MULTIPLE MECHANIC AND THE ISSUE REMAINS. WHY HAS JEEP NEVER TAKEN THE TIME TO RECALL THIS ISSUE AS IT CAN CAUSE THE LIVES OF MANY DRIVERS.”

“GASOLINE ODOR/CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE MACHANICALLY CHECKED THE SMELL OF FUEL ON STARTUP WITH WINDOW LOWERED IS OVERPOWERING..THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD THE VEHICLE PLUGGED INTO SERVICE COMPUTER..WAS TOLD TOO CHECK GAS CAP/REPLACE..WHICH I DID..THE GASOLINE ODOR IS STILL PRESENT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON..SO NEW GAS CAP ISNT THE PROBLEM. THERE ARE NO LEAKS ANYWHERE ON THE ENGINE OR AT THE GAS TANK, YET THE SMELL OF FUEL IS STILL PRESENT. NO GAS LINE LEAKS...WE NEED TO MAKE THESE TRUCKS IN AMERICA AGAIN WITH AMERICAN PARTS. HAVE ALWAYS OWNED JEEPS HAVE A 93 SPORT IN MY DRIVEWAY RIGHT NOW, BUT THIS '01 MAY BE MY LAST...LITERALLY.”

“I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE PROBLEM IS THE VEHCILE IS HAVING ODD INTERMINENT ISSUES WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE GAS LIGHT, THE TACHOMETER, THE SPEEDOMETER WILL STOP WORKING. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WILL COME ON. THE WINDOWS WILL STOP WORKING, ETC. THIS POSES A DANGER SINCE I DON'T KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING AND MY ALL MY INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AT NIGHT. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY.”

“SEAT BECAME VERY HOT STARTED TO SMELL LIKE BURNING .HAD TO PULLOVER TILL IT COOLED DOWN.SEAT QUIT WORKING.THE SEATS HAD PREVIOUS REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY.AROUND 2003-2004. *TR”

“MY VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN INTERMEDIATELY WHILE DRIVING AND SOMETIMES WHILE TURNING IT ON AND WHILE SITTING IN A STATIONARY POSITION AT A LIGHT . I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A RECALL BECAUSE I KNOW MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN IN ACCIDENTS AND I WOULD NOT LIKE TO BE ONE THEM... I SPENT $3000 FOR A SHOP TO LOOK AT IT AND STILL THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. I DO NOT WANT MY FAMILY OR MYSELF TO GET INTO A CRASH BECAUSE OF FAULTY EQUIPMENT. AT THE LEAST I WOULD LIKE AN EXPLANATION FOR WHY THIS IS HAPPENING SO I CAN GET IT FIXED PROPERLY. BUT OTHERWISE A RECALL FOR THESE VEHICLES WOULD BE REA SUING TO MY FAMILY AND I. *TR”
