2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Fuel system Problems

I just bought a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the VIN number listed above. I saw that there was a recall where the dealer had to put on trailer hitches on the vehicle as without it if rear ended the gas tank could explode. I understand this is a older vehicle but do they not service recalls anymore for something like that??? It could explode it hit in the back. When I put my VIN in it says no outstanding recalls yet it does not or ever had a hitch on it for this repair. Any info on this is appreciated....Thanks

THE ENGINE CRANKS AND RUNS FINE BUT AFTER YOU DRIVE FOR A WHILE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. IT HAPPENS WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING OR COMING TO A STOP. IT IS RANDOM. IT USUALLY STARTS BACK UP AND RUNS FINE UNTIL NEXT TIME. WHEN THE ENGINE DIES, YOU DO NOT HAVE STEERING ASSIST OR BRAKE ASSIST. IT IS VERY HARD TO STEER IT OFF THE ROAD. A WOMAN MAY HAVE A HARD TIME STEERING IT OR STOPPING IT. I DON'T LET MY WIFE DRIVE OUR JEEP MUCH AT ALL. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE DRIVING IN THE CITY OR ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT DECIDES TO SHUT OFF. OUR JEEP IS A 4WD WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND KEPT STALLING ON HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS. ANOTHER COMPUTER WAS INSTALLED BUT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE THROTTLE POSITION, IDLE AIR CONTROL, AND MAP SENSORS WERE REPLACED. VEHICLE HAD HARD START PROBLEM AND THE FUEL INJECTORS AND FUEL FILTER WERE REPLACED. STARTED VEHICLE IN DRIVEWAY AND HEARD POPPING NOISES AND IT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT DOWN. THE COLI PACK HAD TO BE REPLACED. NUMEROUS VACUUM HOSES HAVE POPPED OFF DURING DRIVING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. NO ERROR CODES OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON EVEN THOUGH THESE THINGS WERE HAPPENING. A YEAR AGO THE OIL PRESSURE SENDING UNIT HAD TO BE REPLACED AND HAS CURRENTLY GONE BAD AGAIN. I HAVE TO PUT THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL AND LET IT IDLE BEFORE I DRIVE IT OR THE TRANSMISSION WILL JERK. I ALSO HAVE TO LET THE TRUCK STAY CRANKED FOR 10-15 MINUTES BEFORE I CAN DRIVE IT BECAUSE IT TAKES THAT LONG FOR IT TO IDLE DOWN. MY DRIVER SEAT CONTROLS WILL NOT WORK, AND THE PASSENGER WINDOW WILL NOT STAY UP AND THE CONTROLS WILL NOT WORK. IF YOU DO RESEARCH ON THE 2000-2004 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE MODELS, YOU WILL FIND THE EXACT SAME ISSUES FROM EVERYONE WHO HAS OWNED THESE SPECIFIC YEARS AND MODELS. CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT THE CONSTANT ISSUES, YET THE 2000-2004 MODELS ARE NOT ON THE BUY BACK LIST. THE DEALERSHIPS EVEN HAVE A PROBLEM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS WHICH IS WHY IT COSTS SO MUCH AND THE PROBLEMS CONTINUE TO EXIST. OWNERS HAVE HAD TO CONSULT WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS TO WORK TOGETHER TO TRY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS OURSELVES. 2002 WITH ONLY 115,000 MILES ON IT. THERE WOULD BE MORE MILES ON IT IF PROBLEMS WOULD STOP OCCURRING WITH THESE VEHICLES AND PREVENTING PEOPLE FROM DRIVING. I PUT THE DATE WHEN IT STARTED IN 2012, BUT CONSTANT PROBLEMS ARE STILL CONTINUING TO THIS DATE AND YEAR OF 2015.

TWO CONCERNS ADDRESSED: FUEL TANK RECALL: WHILE THIS AGENCY HAS COME TO AN AGREEMENT WITH FCA TO 'REMEDY' THE FUEL TANK EXPLODING, I BELIEVE YOUR AGENCY DID NOT TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT. THE MANUFACTURER HAD INSTALLED A PROTECTIVE METAL ENCLOSURE SURROUNDING THE FUEL TANK MODELS FROM 1993 TO 2006. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE TYPE OF METAL USED IS PRONE TO RUSTING OUT THAT A VAST MAJORITY OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE EXPERIENCED WHICH DURING A REAR END COLLISION EXPOSES THE PLASTIC TANK TO CRACK AND EXPLODE. AIR BAG RECALL: AGAIN OWNERS OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES WILL HAVE TO WAIT MANY MONTHS FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS TO BE PRODUCED. THE ORIGINAL RECALL WAITING FOR PARTS, OWNERS HAD TO WAIT 12 MONTHS FOR DEALERSHIP TO OBTAIN PARTS.

I AM SENDING THIS CORRESPONDENCE AFTER HAVING HEARD ABOUT THE SAFETY RELATED DEFECT CONCERNING THE FUEL TANK SYSTEM INTEGRITY IN REAR-IMPACTS OR CRASHES IN CERTAIN JEEP PRODUCTS. I OWN A 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE THAT I PURCHASED NEW. MY 16 Y/O SON HAS DRIVEN THIS VEHICLE UNTIL NOW. I DO NOT FEEL THAT HE IS SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE NOW BECAUSE OF THE FINDINGS IN YOUR INVESTIGATION. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER'S FCA RECALL INFO CENTER AND WAS TOLD THAT MY JEEP, WAS NOT A PART OF THIS RECALL BECAUSE, "YOUR REAR STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT IS BETTER THAN THE ONES THAT HAVE THE RECALL", (THE PERSON ON THE PHONE GAVE ME HIS ID #DC1571). I ASKED HIM EXACTLY HOW MY REAR STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT IS BETTER AND HE ADMITTED THAT HE DID NOT KNOW. I TOLD HIM MY FACTORY INSTALLED TOW HITCH DID NOT CUT IT AND THAT I WANTED HIM TO EXPLAIN THE DIFFERENCE IN MY VEHICLE AND THE ONES IN THE RECALL. HE COULD NOT ANSWER AND PROVIDED ME WITH THE CUSTOMER SERVICE PHONE NUMBER SO THAT I COULD FILE A COMPLAINT. INSTEAD I SENT AN EMAIL TO CUSTOMER SERVICE AND I SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED A RESPONSE WITHIN 24 HOURS. I AM STILL WAITING. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME FOR SURE IF YOUR AGENCY RECOMMENDED THAT THE CATEGORY THAT MY JEEP FALLS INTO,BE RECALLED & MEASURES TAKEN TO SOMEHOW ADDRESS THE ISSUE? I SAW THE TODAY SHOW ON NBC ON MONDAY MORNING AND IT SOUNDED LIKE THERE WOULD BE A SOLUTION AND CHRYSLER WOULD COVER THE COST TO FIX THE VEHICLES OR THEY WOULD HAVE TO OFFER OVER MARKET VALUE ON A TRADE IN FOR A DIFFERENT VEHICLE, OR BUY BACK CERTAIN VEHICLES. CAN YOU PLEASE PROVIDE ME WITH SOME ANSWERS. I COULD NEVER LIVE WITH MYSELF IF MY INACTION CAUSED HARM TO ONE OF MY CHILDREN OR SOMEONE ELSE THAT IS RIDING WITH HIM OR IN AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING THIS VEHICLE.CAN YOU TELL ME HOW MY VEHICLE IS SAFER THAN THE VEHICLES THAT WERE "VOLUNTARILY RECALLED" BY CHRYSLER?
