2004 Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE Service Brakes, Hydraulic Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	739574
Internal NHTSA #	10284442

Brand	JEEP
Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2004
File date	04/08/04
Component	SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The steering wheel vibrates horribly and the whole vehicle pulsates forward and back whenever you try to stop. We have replaced the rotors/pads five times since purchasing the jeep new in 2003. It started at 15,054 (aug "04), then 24,038 (class action suit), 34,700 (turned), 36,000, and now again at 46,000(sept "09). Well over $1000 into repairs and we still don't feel the vehicle is any safer or make the gc any more pleasant to drive. We don't have much faith in nhsta doing anything about it after reading all the other complaints but thought we would add to the issue. Aren't reliable brakes considered something of a safety issue? There are pages and pages of complaints on the internet and chrysler chooses to do nothing. Maybe they should have just gone bankrupt since they can't build a reliable vehicle. It seems to us a there should be a recall to repair the faulty brakes, especially after a class action suit was issued in 2006.
