By far the worst Jeep ever.

So we had to rent this car while our X5 was getting fixed. First I want to say that this car is not good looking at ALL. First i will start with the quality of the interior . The front seat comfort was OK, but the rear seat comfort was awful. Now the engine. I am blown away by how horrible this engine is. I tried to accelerate and I seriously had to wait a solid 2 seconds to go any farther . AND yes I know cars have lag , but this was a lack of a good engine. I hate this so called SUV.

I recently leased a 2016 Jeep Cherokee latitude after having a 2010 Lincoln . wanted something different . I was looking for a lot of extras and was surprised to find most of my wish list with this car. I am happy with how it drives and the extras, but I am writing this because I am so disappointed in the radio. I get a handful of stations and I have asked the service guy to check it , thinking there was something wrong., but was told it was a new radio and there was nothing wrong. I am not sure if anyone is having the same issue. I like listening to the radio not just a few stations. I am thinking on bringing it back because of this . so if you are about to purchase this jeep and you want a good radio , don't buy this jeep .

Great 2016 Jeep Cherokee 6 cyl 4x4 (not 2.4)

A very good SUV compared to the Mazda CX5 we had. Better quality inside and out and no wheel vibration from ice build up like the CX5. Comfortable for travel and all features for the Latitude with cloth seats. It has heated steering wheel and seats, which are hard to find on this Jeep in our area for this 2016.

Best vehicle purchase I've ever made

I bought my Jeep used. Still the best vehicle decision I have ever made. It is just right, it is set up right, power to gear ratio is spot on. I've driven through the worst of Wisconsin winters with confidence and felt safe and in control. I saw a review that mentioned the car just shut off when the oil was too low. This happened to me on a cold morning turning a corner, when I jumped in and took off before letting it warm up a bit and had neglected to check the oil for a bit. It was my fault. #1. I didn't check the oil. (PSA you should check the oil in any car you drive... why wouldn't you? You put gas in it when it gets toward E...) #2 I took off on a cold engine. No harm to the engine done thanks to the car shutting off. True a warning light would have been nice, but not blowing the engine up was even nicer. I installed a tow package on mine and it handles our boat or kayak/camping trailer like a dream. My Jeep gets 5 stars and I would own one again in a heartbeat! I plan to pass this one down to my daughter soon and buy myself another one.

I have a 2016 Latitude with the 6 cylinder engine I bought new. A constant get "service shifter"error message started about 3 weeks ago along with a bad front end bearing assembly I had to replace for a cool $700. So far...not impressed with my first Jeep...Also, my trim package not even listed below do I had to choose the closest one..
