• Crash related fuel tank fires investigation # EA12005

  Odi has completed an extensive analysis of rear crash fuel tank system integrity data for the subject jeep cherokee, grand cherokee and liberty vehicles (svs).As of june 2013, odi knew of 56 post-collision fatal fires, 28 non-fatal fires, and 6 fuel leak incidents (totaling 90 incidents, 75 fatalities and 58 injuries) involving the svs.Based on this analysis, odi issued a recall request letter (rrl) on june 3, 2013 requesting that chrysler recall the grand cherokee and liberty vehicles due to the rate of fatal, non-fatal fire, and fuel leak incidents when compared to peer vehicles (compact and medium suvs) built during the same time period.In the rrl, odi described how the location of the aft-mounted fuel tank made the svs vulnerable to rear impact crash fuel tank failures.During the analysis, besides the high speed/high severity crashes present in both the sv and peer vehicles, odi observed a significant number of low and moderate speed rear impact crash related fires and leaks, particularly in the liberty.The data also demonstrated that svs originally equipped with towing hitch receivers (trailer hitches) appeared to be under-represented in rear-impact related fuel tank failures.In the rrl, odi requested that chrysler provide its response by june 18, 2013, otherwise nhtsa might proceed to an initial decision that the svs contain a safety-related defect.Chrysler responded to the rrl on june 4, 2013 and vigorously disputed the tentative findings of the rrl.Among other things, chrysler argued that the svs had an overall safety record superior to their peers, met or exceeded all applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards (fmvss) and only experienced fires in severe high energy rear impacts.Nonetheless, while continuing to maintain that the svs did not contain a safety-related defect, chrysler proposed a recall (13v-252) of approximately 2.5m (1.6m currently registered) model year (my) 1993 - 1998 grand cherokee (zj) and my 2002-2007 liberty (kj) vehicles on june 18, 2013.The recall remedy submitted by chrysler would employ a hitch receiver assembly consisting of a steel cross-member behind the fuel tank with forward-projecting arms bolted to the frame rails on either side of the fuel tank.For the my 1999 - 2004 grand cherokee, chrysler indicated it would conduct a customer satisfaction campaign and inspect vehicles equipped with aftermarket tow hitch receivers, and if necessary, replace any such hitch receivers whose conditionmay increase the risk of fuel system failure in rear crashes.Examination of the available data established that the my 1999 - 2004 grand cherokee did not pose the same magnitude of safety risk as the my 1993 - 1998 grand cherokee and my 2002-2007 liberty, particularly in low and moderate speed rear impacts.Because the agency has concluded that the vehicles do not present an unreasonable risk to safety, odi is closing its investigation of the my 1999 - 2004 grand cherokee.Although it was not within the scope of the petition initiating this investigation or the preliminary evaluation preceding this ea, odi also examined the performance of the my 1993 - 2001 cherokee as part of this investigation.Nhtsas assessment of the available data for the cherokee did not establish an unreasonable risk in comparison to peer vehicles.Odi does not approve proposed defect remedies.While offering to install hitch receiver assemblies on the my 1993-1998 grand cherokees and 2002-2007 liberty, chrysler did not, in odis view, provide enough evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed remedy in rear impacts.The complete summary for this closing resume (ea12-005) can be seen by

• Fuel storage system crash related fires investigation # DP09005

  In a letter dated october 2, 2009, the center for auto safety (cas) petitioned nhtsa to open a defect investigation and recall model year 1993-2004 jeep grand cherokees.Cas alleged that the subject vehicles have defective fuel tank storage systems that present a fire hazard in crashes. Cas alleged that the plastic fuel tanks placement behind the rear axle and below the rear bumper, and the lack of adequate shielding, make it more vulnerable to rupture or leakage from a rear-impact by another vehicle (including damage from other components located on the grand cherokee), or in the case of rollover crashes, from other external objects.Cas also alleged that the fuel filler neck tears off in crashes.In its petition, cas cites data from nhtsas fatality analysis reporting system (fars) showing 172 fatal fire crashes with 254 fatalities involving the subject vehicles from calendar years 1992 through 2008.Cas stated that there have been at least 44 crashes with 64 total fatalities (subject and non-subject vehicles) where fire was entered as the most harmful event (mhe) in the fars database.In response to the cas petition, odi made a preliminary examination of available data.Fars data showed 2,988 occupants of the subject vehicles have died in crashes since 1992.Of those, 55 died in 44 crashes where fire was listed as the most harmful event.Identifying crashes most likely associated with the alleged defect as described by cas (defined as the subject vehicle being struck at the 5, 6 or 7 oclock positions) isolated 10 crashes with 13 occupant fatalities.Odi also reviewed the vehicle owner questionnaires (voq) database and identified 12 reports alleging a) a post-crash fuel tank leak and/or b) a post-crash fire potentially related to a fuel tank leak.Of the 12 reports, 10 involved fires (two involved fuel leaks only) with 9 alleged injuries and 1 alleged fatality.The existence of these post-crash fires does not, by itself, establish a defect trend.Further review and investigation into these incidents is needed to determine the existence of any relationship between the alleged defect and each fire or leak.It should be noted that odi also conducted a preliminary review of the early warning reporting (ewr) data that did not find the subject vehicles to be over-represented for post-crash fires.Odis initial review neither supports nor excludes the possibility that a defect exists in the subject vehicles.However, odi has always taken the position that vehicle fires pose a significant safety risk.Accordingly, odi has granted the petition to further investigate the conditions associated with post-crash fires in these vehicles.

• Rear axle shaft separation investigation # PE95049

  This investigation was opened to examine the failure mode and the risk to motor vehicle safety posed by allegations of rear axle separations.The rear axle shaft and housing design is typical of those in which the weight of the vehicle is carried on the axle housing.The left and right axle shafts, supported by roller bearings, are situated inside the axle housing.The inboard splined end of the axle shaft receives power transmitted from the differential assembly, providing torque to the rear wheels.The allegations are that the axle shaft fails, resulting in the separation of a wheel and axle hub assembly or the entire axle shaft and wheel assembly, depending on the location of the axle shaft failure.As identified by chrysler, the subject rear axles are dana 35c and 35cm models, which have been used on the subject vehicles since the 1990 model year.A safety defect trend with respect to the subject axle shafts has not been identified.See hard copy resume for full text of summary.

The contact owns a 1995 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while the vehicle gear shifter was in park, the vehicle would move forward even when the emergency brake was engaged. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for the recall repair for the emergency brake, however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic and was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 180,000. Vin was unavailable.

Component (diode) on 60 pin pcm has a short causing injector number 6 to stick wide open. Result is a cylinder compressing fuel which can lead to explosion, also raw fuel escaping out of the tail pipe and large amounts of smoke. Gasoline pulls the oil off of cylinder wall causing excessive friction and engine damage along with catalytic converter damage. If rear ended when injector is sticking open could cause explosion or fire! I have confirmed this on 3 other 93-95 grand cherokee obd i models as well. Jeep was idling near someone welding and the injector stuck open and started a fire. Fire was exstinguished immediately with dirt and water. No physical damages occurred just a scare. I moved injector 6 plug to 8, then 8 stuck open, upon putting pressure on the computer connector i realized the injector would operate normally again. Been happening for months, just now found the root cause. Will upload pics later if it will let me. I can set fire to the ground where the tailpipe is when injector is stuck open.

This vehicle has what is called a death wobble. If you hit a bump at any speed the steering becomes nothing more than a prayer. When applying the brakes this get s worse. All that can be done is to slow to a complete stop as fast as you. Hot rod guys seem to be aware of it but. What if the repair shops have no sure to fix for the problem. I was going between 50 and 55 when this occured.

Bought 4 new tires (kumho solus kr21 p215/75/r15) on 1-22-15 at 234545 miles, one replaced on 2/10/15 at 235216 with road hazard warranty. Nail in sidewall. By 11/21/2015, needed to have rear passenger tire tested as it constantly loss air. Purchased same brand and size as spare tire. No leak reported by service station, mileage not recorded on their form. Tire replaced with spare on front passenger side that was always flat. After six months of use, tire shows damage to side wall. This should not be acceptable. It is very hard for some of us to buy 5 new tires and i wish i could replacement of all 5 because this size tire seems to unofficially been recalled, but i have never received notice. No one carries these size and brand of tires anymore. Is this why? I am unable to load photos or scanned receipts but do have them available.

When on streets or highway, the vehicle will start shaking or wobbling violently when it goes at a speed of 45 miles per hour or more. It will not stop until you slow own or come toa complete stop.
