My Jeep Hates me
enicole, 04/04/2011
1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4dr SUV 4WD
When I received this car as a gift, it had 140,000 miles on it.
I
immediately needed to replace the front and back brakes, which cost over 1,000.00.
The transmission then went out around 155,000 miles, and the rebuild cost over 2,000.00.
Barely over a year later the transmission went out again and had to be repaired, luckily it was still under warranty.
I have spent more on this car than … it is worth.
It's sad because I LOVE the way this car drives, great acceleration with the V8, and it handles very well for a bulky SUV.
Now the power steering needs to be replaced at 177,000 miles.
We are good about regular service,but this car will nickle and dime you to death if it has high mileage

Solid on and off road

1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4dr SUV 4WD
Purchased from dealer with 49,000 miles. Command-trac works very well off-road. This thing will traverse logging camp paths that look impossible. Very little mechanical problems - cat converter and exhaust manifold. An honest vehicle - does just what it was designed to do very well. I have 87,000 miles and plan to keep it for at least 3-4 more years.

1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4dr SUV 4WD
I've had this vehicle for around a year now, it has 240k with nothing rebuilt.
It has the 5.2l V8.
(not sure why it's not listed in here)
Very fun vehicle and I love opening it up and listening to the engine (got a glasspack on it so it's a little louder).
Good for offroad although it could use a locker in the rear.

Bulletproof I6

1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4dr SUV
This vehicle was given to me with 280k miles on the odometer. Even now, it is unstoppable. With only two wheel drive I've never gotten stuck, despite my best efforts. My Jeep has seen a lot of trails--and a lot of things that are not quite trails--and has pushed through all of them like a champ. The straight 6 gives not only impressive torque for a 4 liter, but an incredibly smooth … drive, and has yet to fail to get me over any mound of dirt and rock I've thrown at it. I've owned it for six months and have had to replace both idler pulleys. When the second idler pulley quit, it chewed up the mounting bracket pretty good. Picked up a replacement bracket for ten bucks at a scrap yard, spent thirteen on a pulley at AutoZone, and did the repairs myself. Most expensive maintenance to date. There's a problem with the clutch (automatic), but manually starting in first circumvents such transmission problems. To hear it told, I wouldn't bother rebuilding the transmission- If it quits, you replace it. I'll happily drop the $1500 when that happens. When I fold down rear seats (quickly and easily), I can lay down and stretch out completely in the back. I never imagined I would be an SUV owner, but I _love_ this Jeep. For a point of reference, my dream car is a Chevy Spark. In that vein, gas mileage leaves a lot to be desired. Even still, I wouldn't trade it for a Prius (my BIG dream car). Okay, I'd trade it for a new-ish Prius C. Any takers?
