Used 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Consumer Reviews
Looks good parked in the dealer's garage
I hail from the Detroit area and we’ve always purchased cars from American manufacturers. In 1999, we purchased a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The reliability has been lousy at best. It has been in the shop for one thing or another 3-4 times a year since we've owned it. The “rap sheet” is longer than my arm! The repairs did not cease after the warranty expired (due to time lapse). At 38K, the PCM module died, stranding my wife. At 41K, I found a transmission leak on my garage floor. At 43K, the Quadring Seal (?) was replaced. Got nowhere with Chrysler. Need I say more? Reliability is the name of the game. Acura MDX here I come!
Worst vehicle I've ever owned
You name the problem, I've had to pay for it to be fixed. Power locks, well- described brake issue, (still) leaking driver side rear window, entire rear axle (twice!), air conditioner control button, fuel injection. Take my advice: Buy Japanese. I know I will for ever more. (Even worse than the build quality, was the inept way and high cost of repairs!) Just awful.

so so
I have not had any major problems with my Jeep. Only that there has been a loud clunking sound like the transmission when I start or stop. I have brought this to many Jeep dealers and was told this is normal...it is the quadra drive. Seems like such a feature should not be so embarrassing to have. Also, have replaced MANY sets of brakes. It does have great towing power and get-up. If you like a cushioned ride in a vehicle that feels like it is attached to the wheel by elastics this is for you. And forget interior room, especially in the back seat.
CA to NM JEEP
I enjoy this vehicle alot, but it sucks way to much fossil fuel.
100,000+ and still going
Bought it back in 2001. Had transfer case rebuilt in 06(common problem).The A/C went out this year. Fun driving in back trails every once in a while.The wife likes getting back to nature.Pull the T.T. with ease. Like the tight turning radius. Just done regular maintenance. Let you know when I reach 200,000
