Jeep acelerated on its own causing me to have to stand on the brakes(thinking I had ABS) brakes did not work correctly, causing me to hit the back of a 4x4 truck at the speed of about 15 MPH all bumper parts had to be replaced as did many other parts air bags did not go off. Today I took the jeep back to dealer for the 4th time to try to get thing taken care of .on the 1st trip I was told that my ABS breaks were working fine and that the mechanic felt them kick in. Took it back a week later because break peddle dropped to the floor, again I was told that all breaks were fine and that the ABS were working. On 5/29/01 my husband took jeep in and test drove it w/ service manager and they decided the ABS was not working at all. And then we were told that we did not have ABS ( salesmen told us the jeep had ABS). The front end now shakes at about 45-55 when going around curves and sometimes when making turns at lower speed. When jchrysler was contacted they tried to blame everything on me. It was my fault that I didn't check to see if the jeep had ABS( who would have thought that it wouldn't have them and we did ask to make sure and we were told yes it had them) and it was also my fault that an inspector did not come out to inspect the jeep after the crash because I did not request one to although no one told me that one could come out I am supose to be able to find this information out on my own. As of today the jeep is in for service again 3rd time for brake service 2nd time for front end vibrations and 2nd time to have them fix all the things they didn't do right the 1st time.
