Hey Schnozz,
Ever had problems with the doors falling off your Jeeps? Son's 95 
Cherokee door hinges are spot welded on instead of bolted to save 
Chrysler a few cents each. Spot welds not holding and breaking at the 
door frame. No recall, just a service bulletin letting the 
dealerships know how to perform a cheap fix......at the owners 
expense. The Caravan I had before that lost 900f the paint starting 
after about two years. No help from Chrysler Corp.

My son and I both carried our OMs around in those vehicles just to 
get back on topic.
