I purchased the 2016 jeep cherokee V6 4x4 altitude package. i did not even test the 4 cylinder as I felt that would be underpowered. so far extremely happy with price performance.

Less than 2 years check engine and car slows down!

The jeep works great on snow and sand, but after almost 2 years my check engine light came on one night driving home from work. I was going 60 and all the sudden it slowed down and I could not pick up speed it was scary I could barely pass cars, I thought someone was going to rare end me. The next day it happend again and drives without power to it. It will slow down on its own. I have 3 boys 9, 5, and 1 very unsafe to drive, it needs to be recalled. Trying to get a trade in ASAP.

So many complications

The computer in my car works when it wants to the screen is usually blue or just says jeep. Bluetooth no longer works I cant control the climate except on off hot or cold. This happened out of no where and the radio comes on when it wants. I've had it checked and it is not cheap to fix and this is a wiring issue. The start stop system has not always been reliable for us and decides when to work as well. The car has just not started or shut off while the start stop light was on. This car is paid off and with all these problems I mine as well have bought a more expensive vehicle. This is the worst vehicle I've had.

Lacking in more ways than 1

I bought my jeep brand new. Within 2 weeks my engine was blown. This was due to faulty manufacturing. Chrystler comped me free oul changes and tire rotations for 5 years. The vehicle comes with a standard can of fix a flat, no spare, no jack. After having a blow out at 1 in the morning, i had to leave my car 45 miles from my home and return the next day to retrieve it. This was quite the ordeal since i didnt have a Jack, spare, or lug wrench. Hundreds of dollars later, i was able to drive my car home. I tried usi g my roadside assistance but the only tow a max of 16 miles, i needed to go 45. On a side note, my jeep has been to rhe repair shop on several occasions and they coukd figure out what was wrong with it until.... my warranty was over! I will never buy another Jeep product as long as i live. This vehicle is lacking in many ways!

I have had nothing but trouble with this jeep. I should've known better than to buy from a brand know for poor workmanship. The only way you can make a jeep halfway reliable is if you flood it with aftermarket parts and a new transmission every 50k. What a piece of junk! I'll never buy a Chrysler product again.
