1994 jeep cherokee, door hinge manufacturing defect. There are two tsbs and a closed investigation concerning sagging door hing. My driver door upper hing sagging, weld is broken and now the hing plate is breaking away from the frame causing the door to sag and not close properly. Chrysler told me to take it to the dealer but that I would have to pay for the repair due to warrenty expiration. This is a known mfg defect. Shouldnt they be required to repair the failure?.
The driver side door bolt came out and weakened the part that connects the door to the car and almost made the door fall off. It had to be welded back together.
The door on the driver's side was coming off at the hinges. Owner took vehicle to the dealership, and was recommended to rancho motor company who did the repairs.
Driver side door hinge weld detached from the frame. Also, front passenger side door hinge weld was starting to separate from the frame.
The weld which held the door to the frame cracked and caused the door to separate from the body of the vehicle. Dealer had been contacted.*ak consumer found the federal safety agency action number pe95047 in the investigations database, the consumer was told because the mileage was so high that the failure was a result of wear and tear. *slc
1994 jeep cherokee sport 4wd. Driver's door top hinge welded to thin metal on fender. Weld has broken and door is loose. Called two jeep dealers and they know about this problem and say that a lot of jeeps have this condition. Quoted almost the same price from both over the phone without looking at the car ($500.00). Apparently they do a lot of these repairs and they have a fix. They weld a thick plate behind the fender and then weld the hinge to that plate.
