Noise sounds almost like a shudder or grinding. Only happens when making a sharp left at very slow speeds, in parking lots. First sounded as if coming from rear, so thought maybe wheel bearing. One time came from both front and rear at the same time, could feel the jeep shudder. Can't tell if coming from d/s or p/s. Doesn't do it all the time. Very sparadic., but starting to do it more often. Been doing it few weeks now. Any ideas?

Hi !...I had the same issue with my 2004 Grand Cherokee Lmt. It had 120K miles on it and I was experiencing the exact same condition. Since it felt like the hub bearing on the front driver side I change it myself along with the half axle. The condition still existed. At times it felt like it was comming from the passenger side so I change out that side also. Still having the condition. It only happened in parking lots making right or left tight slow turns. At that mileage it was time to have the transmission and transfer case fluid changed. I went to Chrysler and purchased their reccomended transfer case fluid and changed it myself. Without using the Jeep the next morning I had the transmission fluid "exchanged". I don't know how or why but the problem was gone??.................I hope this helps you.

Sounds like your heater resistor. The vent/door closing is normal.

Maybe E-brake shoes.

I have the same thing and already had all the rear end control arms replaced and still have that same noise coming from the front thinking i might have the front control arms replaced,and i still have some noise in the rear end when i push up and down on the bumper.I have a limited lifetime warranty on the dorman control arms in the rear wondering if it could be the shocks,have you found out what the problem was with yours

Have had the same issue in past just after having brakes done. Turned out that the bracket that holds the calipers on - one of them was slightly loose and make clunk thumping sound when brakes applied.
check this to make sure tight. I think it was 16 iir 18 mm wrench

My husband has a 1996 and we have had the same problem for years. One so called mechanic replaced a couple of different things saying that's what it was, wrong. Somebody else said transmission. Another mechanic said shocks again. Last month the damn door for somereason fell down, just ripped and we couldn't shut it. Took it to a body shop they got a door and installed it for $300. As my husband was leaving they said did he want to fix that grinding clank problem, as they were doing another Jeep for the same problem. My husband asked if they really knew what it was and they said yeah, it's the transfer case. That it's a big problem with the Jeep Cherokees. $800 for parts and labor later problem solved!!! Wish we had found them a couple of thousand $ earlier. Hope this might help.
