1997 Jeep Laredo fuel system problems

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I OWN A 1997 JEEP LAREDO & RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V252000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, STRUCTURE) NO DEALERSHIP SO I DROVE 120 MILES TO NEAREST JEEP SERVICE DEPT. THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR 4 HOURS THEN STATED THE PARTS THAT WERE NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN EXPECTED DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND I NEVER HEARD BACK. SINCE THEN I APPLIED FOR THE $100 GIFT CARD AND THEY SAID I AM INELIGIBLE SINCE THE ITEM WAS ALREADY REPAIRED. THIS JEEP HAS SO MANY ISSUES. ELECTRICAL SHORT THROUGHOUT ENTIRE VEHICLE THAT CUTS OUT STEREO, BLINKERS, RUNNING LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS, DASH LIGHTS. ITS NOT THE FUSES EITHER. THE DRIVERS DOOR HINGES ARE ROTTING. THE CAR NOW STALLS DAILY EVEN WHEN GOING FREEWAY SPEEDS. THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT MOTOR HAS SEIZED AND NO LONGER ADJUSTS. ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON AND IT NOW WON'T PASS SMOG TESTS. THE FRONT CAR SHAKES AND NEEDS TIE RODS. I AM EXPERIENCING A COMPLETE LOSS. MY ONLY OPTION IS TO SCRAP THE VEHICLE SINCE REPAIRS WOULD COST MORE THAN THE VEHICLE IS WORTH.
