The heater is not working. The heater only blows out cold air. From the research I've done, it will cost an estimated $800 to $1200 to fix. The blender door is broken and is a manufacturer defect nothing I have done could have caused this.
2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee visibility complaints
Page 4 of 5: complaints 71 to 100 of 124, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My HVAC blend doors have broken which will require the dealership to take the entire dash apart to fix a $200 part. The total cost of this is $1500 due to extensive labor. The dealership informed me that this is a common problem with the 1999-2004 jeep grand cherokee models with the dual temperature control settings.
My AC fan had been cutting on and off randomly in my 2000 jeep grand cherokee. I thought at first it may be a bad climate control control panel. A few days later, I smelled electrical burning smell in my car and the fan would not come on at all. Today I removed the blower fan, thinking it was bad, but it turns out the blower is fine, the blower control module relay and wiring harness had melted in the dashboard above where the passengers feet would rest. I have taken pictures and will be glad to send them upon request, but I think jeep/chrysler should have to replace this due to the potential fire threat and lack of safety (since the fuse did not blow). I attempted to replace the part through an automotive parts company, but the blower control module will need to be purchased straight from chrysler corp. Please call me or email me with any follow up questions you may have. Once again, I will also send pictures upon request. Thanks!
3 of the four power door locks are not longer working and the doors can not be opened without first unlocking the door with the power lock and then manually unlocking the door with the lock slider. This is a real problem for those in the back seat who can not reach the power lock button, those making it impossible for them to exit the vehicle without help.
Climate control not working. Blower fails to push air. Vent doors fail to move.
Hvac system failure on jeep wj. Creaking noises frequently heard from underneath dash, load fan noises heard from inside dash. These sounds indicate the start of a blend door failure in the HVAC system. I ask you to consider a partial or total recall request to daimler chrysler on behalf of the federal safety agency and jeep owners affected by this problem.
Driving down the road in a rain storm and the front passenger window fell into the door. I took the jeep to the dealer and was told the window regulator failed allowing the window to fall. Regulator was replaced.
Windshield will not defog due to malfunctioning blend door. Forced to pull over in heavy rain due to inability to see road.
Passenger rear door lock actuator failed; passenger front door window regulator broke and window fell into door while on highway;left brake light fails to light up with new bulb.
Hvac blend door in jeep grand cherokee failed.
2000 jeep grand cherokee safety recall f25- electric radiator fan customer wants to be reimbursed for damage caused by the fan**cc chrysler would only replace the fan and the motor at their cost and the consumer would have to pay for the radiator and the shroud. The right front power window would not roll down when using the switch.
Air conditioner (A/C) will put out heat when on full cold and neat will put out cold when on heat mode. Air will not blow out vents or defrost but blower motor is working . Started acting up last year and still does it.
Unable to control direction of heat/cool to vents. Dealer diagnosed blower air door failure . Replacement was over $800. I do not have the old parts.
Blend door failure on 2000 jeep grand cherokee. Climate controls no longer work, including defrost/defog vents, causing dangerous situations.
Air conditioner/heater blower does not work. Seems to be the same blender door problem as hundreds of other people on this website have: http://www.topix.net/forum/autos/jeep-grand-cherokee/tserat48371icob68/p3.
Today while driving the 2000 jeep grand cherokee limited the heater stopped sending warm air to the passenger side defroster and heat outlets, has dual zone controls. I suspected it was a problem with thegateswhich control the amount of warm air to enter the passenger cabin. Upon researching the problem on the internet it appeared this was an identified defect affecting many jeep grand cherokee owners. The problem was apparently not correctable without replacing the gates"and actuators. I called the local dealership, and they acknowledge dit is a known problem , and have received a technical service bulletin on the issue. Estimated repair cost was $1100 plus. In my opinion manufacturing defects should be covered through a recall and at no expense to the owner.
After crackling a weird air issues in my jeep the climate control suddenly stopped functioning correctly all together. Thiswas going to cost me roughly $1,200 to repair, and I read on the internet that there was more than one incident. After 52,000 miles something called a blend door effect took place. If I knew this before I bought my jeep I would have avoided it like the plague.
The blower motor on my jeep grand cherokee limited failed due to a problem with doors in the heating/cooling system. The repair will cost $ 900 - 1,200.00 to repair. There was heat. There was cooling. There was no blowing to send that air into the vehicle compartment. Defrosting of windows was slow.the condensation evaporated only after the air moved itself. I can only switch to "defrost", a minimal assist in the process. My husbandwas unwilling to drive or be a passenger in this vehicle due to the danger caused by the defrosting problem (we have a home in mn and I will be moving there soon) or during the extremes of temperature during winter and summer. There was a website with a long list of people with the same claim.
I own a 2000 jeep grand cherokee limited with 116,000 miles. The events leading up to the failure of the ventilation system were (1) rapid fogging of front windshield, (2) no defrost on passenger side of windshield, (3) fogging of front passenger windows and windshield,(4) failure of passenger heat while still maintaining driver heat function, and (5) only cold air release on passenger side of jeep. Consequently the windsheild and front windows do not defog, and no heat is provided from the passenger side floor and dashboard ventilation system. To correct this problem, a blend door assembly is required at a cost of approximately $1,350 inclusive of 8 hours of labor. According to the certified service department at the local jeep dealer and online forums, this has become a very common problem for 1999-2004 jeep grand cherokees.
The climate control system in my 2000 jeep grand cherokee limited does not function properly making visibility hard at times. From the research I've done this seems to be a large problem in these vehicles. They use a blend door system which are prone to break and require thousands of dollars to repair due to extensive dash removal.
Heater or car radio overheated and melted tape in radio. This was the fourth occurrence and now radio will no longer play tapes or can be used for xm radio. Talked to service manager at dealership and this has been an ongoing problem.
Defroster on 2000 jeep grand cherokee only blows cold air. Ice builds up on windshield reducing visibility.
Blower blend door failure.
Visibility: defroster/defogger system:windshield:blower .
Blend motor failure ............ Have no heat , only A/C ......... Dealer wants 700.00 to repair ......... Motor is only 70.00 ........... Highway robbery ..................
2000 jeep grand cherokee, this is the third occurance that my heating/cooling system has failed since I purchased my jeep in august of 1999. The latest problem is the blend doors and recirculation doors. The dealer cost to fix was about $900.00. After seven years I would think that chrysler could make a heating/cooling system that would not break every 2.5years.
Heater blows only cold air on the passenger side no matter the temperature setting.
My ventilation system is in the process of failing. I have a loud creating sound coming from underside my dash. When I turn on the system, it doesn't always heat/cool the way it is supposed to. Sometimes the heat comes on, sometimes the cool comes on when the other is chosen. Sometimes if it's supposed to be on the floor its on the defroster. Also, the drivers side seat heater acts up but mostly it doesn't work.
The blend and recirculation door assembly in my 2000 jeep grand cherokee limited failed. This leads to a loss of heat and defroster. I live in minnesota so with no defroster this is a huge safety hazard. My windows won't defrost and will suddenly fog up without warning. I can suddenly lose all visibility.
Visibility: defroster/defogger system:windshield:blower.
