Description of the problem	I own a 2005 jeep grand cherokee. I have read over 500 complaints about the obvious manufacturer's defect associated with the interior door release systems contained in this vehicle. I must assume that "we" are waiting for a number of deaths before this evident flaw will be recalled. I am now down to one working door on my grand cherokee. Other than that, my jeep is in great condition, for i am very particular about maintaining my vehicle properly. After hundreds of jeep grand cherokee owners have submitted official complaints, wouldn't it be safe to say that these complaint represent thousands, if not tens of thousands of incidents? Let's face it... Most vehicle owners will live with this, or pay to have it repaired, but few actually submit a written complaint. I have been quoted a price of $700 per door to have these door release systems replaced. As a single mother, i don't happen to have an extra $2,800 to pay for something that should be taken care of by the manufacturer. One day... Heaven forbid... Someone (hopefully not a child) will be trapped inside a jeep grand cherokee during an emergency. Only then, i assume, will a recall be issued. What a shame. This particular vehicle has been on the road for six years, and complaints are rolling in. This is horrible and extremely dangerous. Please investigate!!!
