1995 Jeep Cherokee body complaints
Page 3 of 6: complaints 41 to 70 of 149, newest first, as owners wrote them.
One hinge of driver's side front door is completely detached, the other is coming loose. I understand that this has been a recurring problem in this model year of the cherokee. At moderate to high speeds, the door shakes and rattles, and the nise is deafening. Door also leaks now when it is raining, there now is water damage to the inside of the vehicle as a result of this failure. Also, I have been forced to prop up the tailgate door with a broom handle since that piece failed, this handle could easily become dislodged during loading and severely injure anyone standing beneath the door.
The driver's door is coming off the hinge - it's a recall but chrysler said I have to be the original owner & won't pay to fix.

The driver side door's hinges are broken and the passenger side door hinges are almost broken. The passenger side window (front) is broken, it will not roll up properly. It clicks as you turn the nob, but window does not go up or down.
I first noticed this problem as a clicking noise when the driver's side door was opened. While having my jeep serviced one day, I asked at the garage what was happening and they told me that the hinge on the driver's side door was tearing loose from the car body. Because it was a hinge weld, they daid that they couldn't repair it. I inquired at a body shop, and they said that the repair would cost 400 dollars. I later found on an internet site discussing safety reacalls and issues about car problems that many 1995 jeep cherokee owners were having the same problem and that doors had actually fallen off and in one case both doors were affected. I contacted dainler chrysler twice, even writing to schramm. I was basically told too bad, the car is out of warranty and they would do nothing about it. I believe this is a safety issue and should be addressed. Thanks for your help.

I have two doors that are breaking from the frame at the hinge, and no one will help me because I am a third owner, which was never told to me when I bought the vehicle, and I have two children in my vehicle and one of the doors affected is next to my five month old. These doors are at there last ends, which we where never told of or shown when purchasing this vehicle. I do not have the money to fix this, and I can't afford to leave my vehical sitting until it gets fixed. I have one vehical in my family to get us all to work and daycare. I thought that it would be a safe vehical, but as you can see. No one is willing to keep me and my family safe.
Driver's side hinge came undone, and it was rusted. And if opening the whole door, it may come off.
