| Description of the problem | First, the interior door handles are a hazard. All four are cracked and one broke off as my grand child open the back seat door to get out. The front passenger door interior door handle is breaking off at any time, the others are cracked. I am afraid that in an accident some of us might not make it out. They are too expensive to replace. I tried to trade in the jeep but no luck! I know there are more jeeps out there with the same problem. I hope there have been no accidents with deaths, yet ! Help !!! The second, is the catalyst converter needs to be replaced again after a year, how many times has it been replaced before? I cant get that info. |
