| Hello, we have a black paint job. we know this part is not a safety feature , but by aug. ,sept. the paint will be pilling off!!! cracking really bad!!! we are the original owners. have had old amc jeeps , never any problems !! rust maybe because we had our 82 jeep from the very beginning. the other problem we have is the check engine light comes on when the fuel changes in pgh. per season!!! now there is a clunk in the rear housing, with our 4-wheel drive we have limited slip. we are thinking of selling by oct. ,jeep better be wary of lost sales. | |||

| I have only included the one date i can remember that jeep was in the repair shop. but, to this date, after jeep warms up and then is shut off for approx 20 minutes, it hesitates on acceleration. dealer said couldnt duplicate problem. oil gauge dropped to zero, then engine knocked & i shut off. dealer said oil pressure ok, could not duplicate prob. it still drops below 20 sometimes, but not zero again. i have had manifold bolts replaced twice and catalytic converter replaced once. water leaks on passenger side & drivers seat belt gets caught in door latch. | |||

| Car has a bucking and poor proformance at highway speeds up long hills, making 60mph impossible. it has been a poor highway performer, but has become rough-missfiring very badly 3 times in the car life. first 2 serious failures i got a engine check light, resulting in dealer visits. now the engine check light was fixed it is not there, but the failure mode is. the car exhaust pipe end is quite black, dirty running? the valves and internal engine parts are very dirty and had to be cleaned or replaced when inspected the last 2 times. it happened at 5k, 12k, and now at 37k. the car is now almost 3 years old and i have had it in for other repairs totaling at least 6 times. this is more times than my last 10 year vehicle had. (not jeep) am i now out of help since it is out of warrantee at 36k? i am getting worried the car will not perform to 100k like this as it may be damaged! what is the extent of my rights now? thanks,, ss | |||

| The rear differential was cracked, as was the exhaust manifold. also the crank sensor harness and the tps were melted against the manifold. the dash leaked water and the brake shoes/lining and rack and pinion set needed replacing. the drivers side seatbelt would never retract and the dash lead water extensively causing the resstr-blower to go out. the radio was also broken for a couple of months | |||
| For guage problem, all dash guages intermittently drop to zero and airbag light comes on. hitting a bump or top of dashboard fixes problem. for #2, oil pressure drops to zero when idling in traffic in warm weather or after long periods of highway driving. | |||

| Contacted chrysler concerning my problems, and they stated that they cannot do anything for me. when i called about my airbags the first time, i was told i would be sent arbitration paperwork and never was. when i called back, i was told that an inspector should have gone out to look at my car before it was repaired and that it was too late now to do anything. i was never told that an inspector or anyone else could be involved when i first contacted chrysler. i am furious and frustrated and need help with this serious issue. *ak | |||
