A support under the driver's seat in my 2004 Jeep Cherokee Laredo is broken, causing the seat to rock diagonally. It is broken in on the left front side. It looks like a bolt is broken or something is broken. I would appreciate any advice. Thank you.

    I would start by removing the seat, there are usually 4 bolts holding it to the floor, sometimes a flap of carpet covers them. Some seats also have electric wiring so unplug those connectors as well. With it out you will be able to see if a bolt came out or if the track broke. You may be able to get a machine shop to weld it for you if something broke.

Since you are unsure what is broken I can't tell you how to fix it. BUT, You can go to just about any scrapyard and look at the seats they have, first to see what yours used to look like before it broke and then, if it is anything that will need welding etc, possibly to buy the seat you looked at (not terribly expensive compared to some repairs)

2004 Jeep Grand Cherikee Laredo A/C stopped working

Could be the fuse, identify the fuse and with a fuse puller or a pair of needle-nose pliers, remove the fuse, if the wire in the fuse is broken, it's bad.

Drivers Power seat broken-the support metal arm-2004 Grand Cher

Should just be 4 bolts holding the seat to the floor, and unplug the wires. Only way to fix it is weld it, or get a different base from an auto wrecker.

Starter on 92 jeep cherokee laredo is out

Put front end on jack stands. DO NOT WORK UNDER CAR WITH ONLY JACK HOLDING IT UP! Your life is worth more than a 20 buck pair of jack stands. Disconnect battery, negative (black) lead first, then positive (red) lead. From under car, locate starter motor. Carefully disconnect electrical cables from built-in solenoid and motor. Remove mounting bolts. Pay attention if lengths are different. Put'em back where they came from. Rock starter back and forth to break it loose. Reverse procedure for installing new starter. BTW - don't waste your money on a rebuilt unless you enjoy changing them every 12 to 18 months. Make sure you return the old starter for your core allowance refund.

Airbag light jeep cheroke laredo 2004

The issue would not be related to a fuse. There is a fault in the airbag system somewhere, and your airbags are not operational at this time. The issue may be related to the seatbelts, but if you don't understand the airbag system it is best left to a professional. Airbags save lives, but can also be deadly if you don't know what you're doing.

2004 Jeep Cherokee Laredo Power Seat Lent Jeep to my son, next morning went to go to work, and noticed the power seat is rocking back and forth. The power button will slightly move back and forth but will...

Rocking tells me that something in the mechanism is broken. failure to move with switch could mean that either what broke or something else has jammed the track. If you are good at this kind of thing, remove seat (4 bolts & unplug harness) and flip it over if you can't see anything installed.
It could have broken because it was ready to break but that's why I don't loan my stuff to anyone! (when something breaks then it's my fault) If parts turn out to be really expensive, you can likely find a working seat in a junkyard for pretty cheap.
good luck with it...hope its something small & easy!

Knocking sound that intensifies when drivng faster

It could be a drive shaft. You may need to go under the vehicle and see if there's any play at the joints that are on the ends of the shaft.

Automatic door locks wont work on my 2004 jeep grand cherokee

There is a broken wire in the rubber casing between the door and the vehicle. Take the rubber casing off and you will more than likely find a broken wire or one about to break. Been there and done that.
