At first I loved this Jeep, I honestly planned on driving forever! Two years later nothing but issues with my transmission! I was spending SO much money, and it was in the shop more than on the road!
Love my little Jeep

i purchased my 2017 Jeep Cherokee on Memorial day of this year. It is a Latitude with the V6 , 9 speed auto and all wheel drive-select one. I recently drove from Minnesota to Phoenix, a distance of 1800 miles and was pleasantly surprised at my gas mileage. My highway speeds were generally between 60-80 mph. On I90 in South Dakota my mileage dropped from 30 to 24.9 due to stiff crosswinds. When I turned south, the crosswinds became tailwinds and the mileage went back up to 30 as I arrived at Ogallala, Nebraska. It stayed relatively steady thru Colorado Springs and all the way to Gallup, New Mexico. As I approached Flagstaff, it had dropped to 28, but then the ride down the mountain to Phoenix bumped it back up to 31.4. The seats are comfortable, and the vehicle was quiet, except for varying tire noise on different pavement. The nav system worked well, although since it was just installed, the updates should have been more recent. They weren't. I maintained speeds at or near the legal limit. Overall, I would give this suv a 4. I also carried a full load of cargo. On combined trips, 80/20, highway/city, the mileage was between 25 and 28.

Being in the military with limited income keeps my options low in regards to what I can afford for car payments. I just got married and my wife just found a job in the Seattle area so we needed a 2nd car. After looking at used vehicles, we came across Jeep's President's Day sale and they were offering $5K rebates for downpayment plus discounting the sticker price for all basic Cherokee Sport models. So we were actually paying less than what we were looking at for used Cherokees. I wasn't impressed with the acceleration but it is a 4 cyl. My wife liked the features and it was new! So we pulled the trigger. 500 miles into the car, we realized there was puddling water at driver and passenger sides. It was storming so I asked if her door was shut. It was. We drove it back to our dealer who proceeded to hold onto it for over a week. Not once did they contact us. We had to initiate the discussion and they seemed upset that we were upset. A response of "that's why there's a warranty" doesn't comfort a consumer when the cause was a body part that needed to be welded shut, seals in the door and windshield that needed to be replaced/resealed. It simply shows shoddy workmanship and low grade parts quality.

navigational equipment errors have began to slip in. It will asked us if we want to make a phone call while we are backing up the car, it just comes on. We notice that the speed limit that the system will advise us the wrong speed. Mechanical the Jeep is fine. Overall the Jeep has been a great car to own. We always buy the extended warranty if offered, we have found over the years that it does pay off if you own a car more then 4 years or drive a lot of miles. We replaced the tires, and checked the tie rods. We are seeing rust on the hitch. We now take our car to an independent car repair shop to get second opinions on any maintenance issue that are age or milage related. One of the seatbelts is now hanging up on drivers side, but overall we have been quite satisfied.
