1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE — POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:PARK/NEUTRAL START INTERLOCK SWITCH

AFTER READING ABOUT A RECENT INVESTIGATION INTO THE GRAND CHEROKEE GOING INTO REVERSE, IT PROMPTED ME TO REPORT THE PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE. MY GRAND CHEROKEE HAD GONE INTO REVERSE UNEXPECTEDLY TWICE NOW. ONCE IT RESULTED IN DAMAGE. THE SECOND TIME I CAUGHT IT. IT APPEARS THAT WHEN SHIFTING INTO PARK, THE SHIFTER WILL BOUNCE BACK INTO REVERSE WITHOUT WARNING. ON BOTH OCCASIONS I WAS EXITING THE VEHICLE WHEN IT BEGAN TO GO INTO REVERSE. THE SECOND PROBLEM INVOLVES THE FRONT DISC ASSEMBLIES. IT APPEARS THAT THEY WARP EARLY IN THEIR LIFESPAN. I NOTICED A LOT OF VIBRATION WHEN APPLYING BRAKES AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 40 MPH. THIS STARTED AT ABOUT 15000 MILES AND GETS PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. SEVERAL OTHER GRAND CHEROKEE OWNERS HAVE SAID TO ME THAT THEY HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. *AK
