2000 Jeep Laredo Problems, complaints & recalls

SEAT NOT GOOD, REAR BOTH AXLES

Brake lights issues have changed bulbs cuircut boards new brake light switch,but still can't get brake lights to work all other lights work no issues.

I recently purchased a 2000 jeep grand cherokee larado with an r title. I was just told there was a recall for the fuel tank exploding upon impact. Jeep recalled the jeeps on the road & had a trailer hitch put on by local garages. Does our vehicle fall under your recall? Can we get a recall, so we can have a hitch put on? Date of purchase below:

I am very worried about having somebody crash into the rear of my jeep. The rear bumper is right next to fuel tank. They are going to install trailer hitches ( for added protection ) on some other year jeeps but not mine !! How can this be fair when they are all built the same way. Please make them fix all of these dangerous autos. Thank you, [[redacted]] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(B)(6). *Tr

The driver's side seat of my 2000 jeep grand cherokee laredo became dislodged from the brackets while I was driving. This caused me to loose control of the vehicle and nearly crash into oncoming traffic. I inspected the vehicle on the side of the road and discovered that the rails on the brackets had torn apart. These should be made out of some type of durable metal but they brackets are very poorly constructed and the metal is not thick enough to handle the wear and tear of regular use. I looked on the internet...

I too brought a jeep cherokee from a used dealership in 2008, it is a 2000 4l 6i also, same issues, the week after I brought the car the engine blew, the dealer would not cover it because they sent it to their mechanic shop and of course the mechanic shop said it wasn't the dealers fault, they told me that a rock hit the fan and put a small hole in the engine... I spent close to 1200 getting the engine rebuilt. Car ran for a little while then the check coolant light kept coming on, I had to keep a bottle of coolant...

Front seat broke off - no accident, just everyday use. *Tr

My 2000 jeep cherokee laredo has been swapped-it seems to be a simple procedure for ones in my area , the vehicle passes as the one I purchased but several things are different, I would like someone to please look into this matter. I haven't went to the police about this matter, because I need someone with the knowledge and understanding of the specifics in this model/make vehicle to be able to prove what is going on with the jeeps in my area, I don't want to be driving around in a stolen vehicle that the vin #s have been change on, this vehicle is not the vehicle I purchased, the man at the dealership even remembers certain things being different than they are now. *Tr

I have a 2000 jeep grand cherokee. I have an anti-freeze leak. I have had it fixed twice. I wish I could tell you what was done but I know very little about cars. I am currently having the problem again. I went on the internet to find out what it could be but all I found was a large number of people who have sunk tons of money into fixing the problem on their 2000 jeep grand cherokees. I am currently adding anti-freeze daily. *Tr

I have a 2000 jeep grand cherokee. The driver's side brake light has never worked since I have owned it. I have had it "fixed" several times but it only works for a day or two. I have been pulled over by the police and had to explain it was the car. I have noticed that jeep's around the same age as mine almost all have a missing brake light. Almost all are on the driver's side. *Tr

I have owned a 2000 jeep cherokee laredo for about 4 years now and I have had trouble with the jeep stalling while driving down the road. I have taken all the steps to getting the problem repaired, I have had a tech put it on a tester, I replaced the parts that the tech told me I needed to replace but still the jeep stalls and now it is getting worse. I have three children that ride in my jeep everyday to and most of the time from school. I am terrified that it is going to stall in traffic and my children are going...

The back tail lights don't work on my 2000 laredo jeep. *Tr

Electrical system failure. Windows begin falling down simultaneously, then the vehicle begins shutting off for no apparent reason, then... Your gauges on your dash (speedometer, gas gauge, battery gauge, etc) stop working. Making you unable to tell your speed. Then your vehicle will turn over but not stay crunk. I have spoken with alot of people with jeep grand cherokee's and it has happened to all of them. All jeeps between the year models of 2000 through 2002. *Tr

I have owned my 2000 jeep grand cherokee laredo for almost 9 nine years. Almost a year ago, the drivers-side seat began to wobble. At first, it was more of an inconvenience. However, soon it became apparent that the seat was really coming off of the base. About a month ago, I took it to southpoint chrysler jeep in austin, texas in order for the seat to be fixed. Before taking it to the dealership, I removed the seat from the base and noticed that where the seat was affixed to the base, the metal had sheared...
