2014 Jeep Cherokee Latitude 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl 9A)
3 of 4 people found this review helpful
We bought a low serial number 2014 Jeep Cherokee with the V6 and Active Drive II 4WD. The Jeep looked nice and handled really well on the test drive. It came semi-stripped with manual seats, no nav, and no backup camera, but had the low range 4WD and heated seats, mirrors, and ,my wife's favorte part, a heated steering wheel. Having had a 1996 Grand Cherokee for over 300,000 miles we decided to give this one a try. Well Jeep has made a wrong turn with this one. Instead of the reliable simple 1996 ZJ, this XK Jeep is horrible. The overly complicated 9 speed transmission has been in the shop six times now for updates and repairs. The infotainment system can be hacked and used to take over the throttle, steering, and brakes. I mean come on, who connects the radio to the steering? The 4WD system is not up to par either. I took it on the lawn to drop off a smal tree I had bought and it got stuck! on level grass! The factory tires came off the next day and better ones were fitted, but it will still spin the tires in the wet and that is with the traction controls on!. The transmission shifts like a 16 year old learning to drive stick, the gas mileage is averaging 21 and not hte 30 they claimed. SInce my 1996 ZJ got an average of 19, I do not see what benefit the new 9 speed is giving. In fact it does not shift into 8 until you hit 70 and I have never gotten it into 9 which is only from 100 and up - Believe me nobody wants to drive this at 100mph. The visibliity is horrible out the back due to the styling and you cannot see the front of the car either. This makes this Jeep not really off-roadable. If you buy one you will need the backup camera or get used to backing up using your mirrors. On the plus side, the seats fold easily and the space once they are down is pretty large. the controls are pretty well placed and easy to use and since it has a push-pull shifter you can go through the gears yourself, which is smoother than letting the transmission shift for itself. It looks nice and the oil filter is on top of the engine making it real easy to replace it, which you will be doing alot since even with synthetic oil it seems to get dirty around 3000 miles. The power from the 3.2 six is nice at 272HP. I was told by somebody about somethign else, but it applies here. It looks great, is horrible to operate and breaks down often. What do you expect, it is Italian. Basing this Jeep off of an Alfa SUV was a mistake. I wonder if the new Renegade, which is based off of a FIAT is just as bad... To make matters worse, all thoughout this Jeep are things like a silhouette of a WWII Jeep MB on the windshield, the words Jeep, since 1941 on the steering wheel, and the Jeep grille/headlights logo stamped on random things under the hood, which is funny since the grill of the XK looks nothing like that of a MB/CJ I am going to be looking for a 2003-2004 Grand Cherokee Overland - a REAL JEEP to replace this.

I traded my Subaru 3.6R wagon after it blew a head gasket after 60,000mi. I decided to try the new Cherokee and I was not disapointed. I can say I've had Chevys, Subarus, Hondas and Nissans and this is the first vehicle I can honestly say I can't find anything I dont' like about it. The performance and comfort are amazing and I love the front to back sunroof. Off road handling is Jeep Trail Rated and does not disapoint. Love my Hawk!

Cherokee Latitude V6 4 x 4 bought early June 2014, currently with 6000 miles on it. This has been a very nice vehicle, keeping my wife happy (replacing a totaled Caravan) with enough space for a reasonable amount of hauling in town. We generally drive it on road trips, also. Don't overlook that this really is a Jeep, a little heavier than otherwise would be the case, but you find the advantages when driving over rough roads, as it just glides along where most cars would be shaking themselves to pieces. MPG is great on the highway, up to 27 mpg, with excellent merging acceleration for on-ramps. Cornering is good, also. The 8.4 inch touch screen is easy to read and works well. Update June 2016: At 26,000 miles the Cherokee is now getting roughly 28-31 mpg on the highway at 75 mph. We have done the navigation update (remotely adds navigation to the existing 8 inch display), and it works well, though it's not cheap. The vehicle has been at the dealership for several recall updates and replacement of an oil pressure sensor, all at no cost and none of it causing any difficulties to us in driving. We still think the Cherokee is a winner. My wife (primary driver) particularly likes the forward visibility and maneuverability. Comfort/convenience features like power liftgate and heated seats/steering wheel are favorites for her also. Update June 2017. Now 38,000 miles with a couple of more recalls done but nothing that has caused driving difficulties or stranded us. Repairs to power liftgate latch under warranty about six months ago, no cost to us. We will get new tires before next winter just to be prudent, but there's still a reasonable amount of tread left. Update December 2017. Now 44,000 miles. No additional repairs. Original tires were replaced at 41,700 miles. They no longer had enough tread to be safe for driving in snow though they were OK for other use. Update June 2018. 47,500 miles. No problems. Update December 2018. 58,000 miles. No problems. Update June 2019./ 63,000 miles. No problems. Update November 2019. 71,000 miles. Sold. It was still going strong with 90% of brake life left. Battery replaced a few months earlier. No other repairs. Replaced with a 2020 Cherokee with auto braking and similar assistive driving features.. BTW, our Cherokee is the 3.2 liter V6, not the 4 cylinder.

The new Jeep Cherokee is something I'll recommend to all SUV enthusiasts. I bought it a ear ago from Repokar car auction for a good price and had a great experience driving it. Now I am selling it because I've owned another model. But this jeep has an unbelievable style. This item is a must to get.
DO NOT BUY THIS CAR

Note: 3.2 V6 After my initial sparkling review of this car, a new transmission had to be put in at 44k miles. Need I say more? Traded it in at 46k for a 2013 BMW 535xi because quite frankly my confidence in it was shot. Lost about $4000. Thanks FCA!!!! 🙄
