Known issues on the 2004 Grand Cherokee. Ten recalls are on federal record for this model year: inadvertent deployment of the side/window air bags that can increase the risk of injury, a loss of brake fluid that lowers brake-line pressure and increases stopping distance, missing amber headlight reflectors that leave the vehicle poorly illuminated, two further exterior-lighting faults that reduce visibility and may result in a crash, a dislodged steering gear-box clip that can increase steering effort, a front seat heater that can overheat and cause a fire or injury, a starter-assembly fault that with moisture present can cause a sensor malfunction affecting the engine, a labeling error that leaves the owner without the correct tire, wheel, and inflation-pressure information, and a fuel-pump leak that can cause a fire near an ignition source. Owners have filed 1,572 complaints and Jeep has issued 57 technical service bulletins for the year. This manual carries the factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems.

From a routine service interval to a hard-to-trace wiring fault, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2004 Grand Cherokee.
