    Q:
    What is the recommended maintenance schedule for Door Hinge, Door Lock, Liftgate Hinge and Tailgate Lock on Jeep Cherokee? Posted by Algirdas Z.
    A:
    First of all, for smoother movements, door and lift gate hinges, hood hinges as well as latch assemblies should be sprayed with light oil or lock lubricant every three months or after 3000 miles. The door latch strikers also need to be greased lightly for smooth operations and long life according to the repair manuals. Moreover, doors' locks and lids should be sprayed with graphite lubrication.

    Q:
    My liftgate latch was working on and off until recently when it broke completely and inserting my key in the lock does nothing. It can be opened from the inside by pulling up on the part through a hole in the inner vinyl. Is this the part that would replace that to get it working again? Thanks!

    IT IS THAT OR THE HANDLE BUT IT IS NO LONGER SUPPLIED BY MOPAR
