Intermittently vehicle hesitated and had low fuel pressure. This resulted in fuel pump failure. The failure occurred because debris was coming off the fuel tank and clogged the fuel lines and pump. Fuel pump and fuel filter were replaced 3 times within a month. The fuel regulator was replaced twice, but failure recurred. Also, consumer contacted manufacturer, who provided little assistance.

I am a senior adjuster at progressive ins and have notice a serious common problem happening with 93 & up jeep grand cherokees with a v8 engine. I'm sure it is due to the harsh environment in the southwest but could very well be possible and just due to age. The problem is that the plastic crossover hose on the fuel rail is rupturing and spraying fuel on the distributor resulting in an immediate engine fire at the rear of engine and can be a serious threat to occupants. I have not been successful in locating any recalls or having chrysler dealers help me in bringing this to chrysler's attention. Please assist in bringing some attention to this matter before serious injury results. To date I have had to identical claims within one month-both v8 models 1993 & 1994 with a little over 100k miles well maintained vehicles.

93 jeep grand cherokee car fire (5/7/2001; about 4:15 pm)I have a story to relate; hopefully there might be something to learn from itmy wife and I were traveling to bwi to drop off our son so he could catch a plane back to chicago. A few miles before the I-695 n exit, we started smelling a burnt rubber or perhaps exhaust type of smell. My son was driving and I suggested he get in the outside lane and slow down to see of the smell got worse or went away. All the engine gauges read fine. As we were trying to decide what to do, the car suddenly took a couple of hard jerks and there was a loud bang. The engine was still running, but the car was coming to a quick stop. We were in the outside lane, but right at the I-695 exit so there were 2 more exit lanes on our right. We couldn't get to the shoulder. The car came to stop quickly; it didn't appear to want to coast even when I suggested my son move the transmission lever to neutral. All of a sudden there was a lot of smoke coming out from under the rear of the car. At first I hesitated to get out of the car for fear of being hit by other traffic and we couldn't see to our rear because of the smoke. When I realized there was no traffic coming past us, I got out of the rear seat and looked under the car; there were flames. I yelled at my wife and son to get out of the car and we all went across to the shoulder of the road. The jeep burned totally. . Later in speaking to the fire captain, he told us that the rear differential of the car had been cherry red. They had put 700 gallons on the car to put out the fire and cool of the differential. It appears the differential had failed (I believe it was the input bearing where the drive shaft connects), obviously gotten very hot, and locked up causing the drive shaft to break off at the differential (that end of the drive shaft was resting on the ground). When the things started breaking, there must have been some rupture of a fuel line or the fuel tank; then there was fire.*a
