I called the dealer about this notice and they told me that they would not be able to help me for another 6 weeks. I thought that this was too long to get my vehicle checked out, especially with this being a manufacturers defect.
Cooling fan is cracked on 2000 jeep grand cherokee starting to vibrate.
My 2000 jeep cherokee laredo began experiencing a coolant leak and abnormally high coolant use, use that I noticed almost immediately after purchasing my vehicle used in august 2005. In december while getting the oil changed my mechanic indicated that there was a large amount of antifreeze in my oil. My mechanic suspected that there may be a problem with the head gasket or perhaps even a cracked head. When the head was removed he discovered that the entire head had been machined incorrectly. All of the holes that surround the piston chamber and allow antifreeze to flow through had been machined approximately 1/2-3/4 of an inch off center which would make it difficult/impossible for a gasket to property seal. My mechanic contacted daimler-chrysler to see if there has been any recalls to the engine and there was not. A representative that he had contact with indicated that approximately 32 of these head are replaced each week, he did not indicate whether or not that was from the same engine or from different engines manufactured by daimler chrysler. The cost to replace the head with a remanufactured head was approximately $1400. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
The vehicle was completely destroyed by an engine fire prior to the recall on intake and exhaust manifold that results in under hood fire. *yh
