| Description of the problem | 2005 jeep grand cherokee interior door handles inoperable from the inside of the vehicle. The 2 back door handles have fallen off. We took this up with chrysler and was told this is not under warranty. This is a quality/design flaw and a huge safety issue. Chrysler needs to recognize this and re-call and fix this issue. We then took our jeep into a dealer to get it fixed and paid $736 for one door panel. The only panel that could be fixed since the rest are on back order ??? We are left with 2 doors that don't operate and one cracked door handle that eventually will fall off too. Please help address this concern with the 2005 jeep grand cherokee. Thank you |
