GREAT VALUE - Opt for the 3.2liter V6 though!!

I've had my 2016 Latitude since December 2015 after having a 2005 Grand Cherokee for 11 virtual trouble-free years. I am amazed at all the bells and whistles this mid-price Cherokee has on it. My wife drives a 2007 Mercedes SL550 ($104,000 car) and the Cherokee has many of the features that's on the Mercedes, and in some cases, some the Benz doesn't have. We opted for the bigger engine upgrade. The 3.2-V6-25+mpg that I highly recommend, however I don't know how the new 2.0 turbo performs). Opt for the Comfort/Convenience package and the UConnet 8.4" screen upgrade. The incentives were great ($2K cash back + 0% for 60 months). I don't think I could have gotten more for the money anywhere else. I now (March 2020) have 47,000 totally trouble free miles. It's comfortable and fun to drive. We love our Jeep!!!

Biggest Fan of Jeep!

My first Jeep and Im a huge fan! I love the Jeep Cherokee 2016. Its a sexy, sporty, modern, SUV. Anyone every age can feel comfortable in this car. Im young and didn't want an SUV to look like it wasn't my style. I like the key fob push button for engine start up, the rear camera, automatic back door push button opens and closes by itself, the black matching rims, the black Jeep logo, matching the black grill, black tinted windows on stock. Comfortable seating, quiet engine, quiet brakes, easy to drive just like driving a car. I get so many compliments. Interior stitching similar to the lexus is 250. This car beats all other SUV's in its class!

Traded Car After 8 Months!

With under 15000 miles on car it leaked oil all over the garage floor and then began losing power and stopping mid drive. Oil pressure warning came on. This happened 6 times. Took it to the Jeep repair shop. They filled it with oil and tried to give it back to me without adequately explaining why it lost oil in the first place. I immediately traded the car and lost 6k on the value. I couldn't believe it as it was basically a new car and very well maintained. Had I read consumer reviews on the engine/transmission problems first I would have saved myself some grief. All the wonderful bells and whistles won me over. Nicely appointed but they should not be selling cars with the issues that they have many folks complaining about. Fix your technical issues with your engines/transmissions.

I wrote a review a year-and-a-half ago after I bought my Jeep. I still have it. After driving it over a year now. I still love it. The few things I wish I had was, cameras, light that come on when someone passing. To me there and some blind spots I don't like on both sides, that is why I would of liked to had the camera.. I paid $26,000, now I can buy it for $1900.00. . If I wanted to trade it in that they will only give me $18,000. I only have eight thousand miles on it too. Hope this helps who ever is reading this.......

Good, Bad, Ugly

I took my first long trip in my new 2016 Cherokee Sport. First the Good. Gas mileage as stated on the sticker was the gas mileage I got. The comfort was good, not great. That's it. Nothing else good about this vehicle. Second: The Bad. Do they make shocks for this vehicle? I could feel every bump and crack in the road. On the highway you felt like you were constantly going over speed bumps. The radio was BAD. You couldn't hear the sound because of the thumping of the speaker against the dash. The air conditioner kept making noise. I could hear the engine when the vehicle was sitting at a light or when we were on the road. Now the UGLY: NOISE FATIGUE: Please stop the noise. It never stops. The radio makes ugly noise, the tires make noise, the air conditioner makes noise. I'm tire of the noise. I can hear other vehicles passing by. I can't hear the radio with all the noise. I'm giving this vehicle up as soon as I can. There, I'm tired.
