ALL FOUR INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES ON MY DAUGHTERS JEEP CRACKED AND HER BACK HANDLES ARE NOW INOPERABLE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE! IN CASE OF EMERGENCY, MY DAUGHTERS PASSENGERS WOULD BE STUCK INSIDE THE CAR CAUSING INJURY OR EVEN DEATH!!! MANUFACTURER CHARGE TO REPLACE/REPAIR IS PROHIBITIVELY EXPENSIVE. $500 PER DOOR!!!! THIS IS LIKE A 1/3 OF THE VALUE OF THE CAR AT THIS POINT. MANUFACTURER SAFETY RECALL IS WARRANTED!!!!!!! - Jan 24, 2013Electrical system

ALL 4 DOOR HANDLES HAVE CRACKED AND DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR NO LONGER FUNCTIONS EITHER FROM INSIDE OR OUT. DEALERSHIP ADVISE THAT ALL FOUR DOORS (IN ITS ENTIRETY) WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED, AND NOT JUST THE HANDLES. WE'RE AWAITING FOR A QUOTE FROM THE DEALERSHIP BUT WAS ADVISED THAT IT COULD BE A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR EACH DOOR. PLEASE BE ADVISED THIS IS MY 3RD SUBMISSION. I BELIEVE THAT DEFECTS SUCH AS THIS SHOULD BE SHOULDERED BY JEEP, AND NOT THE OWNER. DOOR HANDLES SHOULD BE MADE IN THE HIGHEST QUALITY AS THIS IS AN ENTRY/EXIT POINT OF THE VEHICLE. PLEASE DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE WORSE HAPPENS BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE WITH THIS. - Sep 10, 2014Electrical system

I WAS DRIVING HOME AT DARK WITH MY FAMILY IN THIS VEHICLE WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS WENT COMPLETELY OUT AND EVERYTHING IN THE DASH WENT OUT. THIS JEEP WAS RECALLED LAST YEAR 2014 FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH AND HAS TO THIS DATE NOT BEEN FIXED, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT ARE THE PLANS FOR REPAIRING THIS SITUATION, THE HEADLIGHTS NOW WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF THERE IS NO SPECIFIC TIME OR DATE WHEN IT DECIDES TO DO THIS. I WOULD APPRECIATE A RESPONSE TO THIS SITUATION SINCE THIS IS THE VEHICLE THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE TO WORK AND TO TRANSPORT MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL.
