Repeated failure of blower fan for which there is apparently not a suitable fix from jeep. current fix is either (a) part from supplier other than jeep which fails every 6-9 months or (b) jeep recommended part which reduced air volume so dramatically that defrosting windows is unsafe. failure of the blower motor is also unsafe due to the inability to defrost the windows. *tr

Visibility:defroster/defogger system:windshield:blower jeep grand cherokee lmt. heater problem. i have a dual control system, that is only heating on the passenger's side. there are several complaints and the cost of repair is outrageous, the part is semi reasonable, but the labor and location makes it extremely costly. this is a danger in terms of visibility and i believe chrysler should fix the problem. several jeep owners are having the same problems, so it appears to be a manufactures defect. *tr
Visibility:defroster/defogger system:windshield:blower ... it was suggested that include the prior description but i'm in question. we have had this 1999 jeep grand cherokee in the family for years and the past year the passenger side blows strictly cold air (it has dual air controls) - my nephew owned the jeep prior to our purchasing it from him this past month. he said this has been this way for a while and not sure what to do. in researching the fix, it seems everyone has the same problem and it was suggested to report it to you in hopes that you can help with the fix as it is a costly one from jeep ($1000 - $1500) ... since everyone has this problem it has to be a jeep defect. hopefully you can help us out. *tr
