I've owned my 2002 Grand Cherokee Since Sept. 2001. We have the Laredo V8, with leather, sunroof, heated seats, and the upgraded audio package. This is my 4th Jeep, and the 3rd Grand Cherokee in our family. We have two kids, two dogs, two jet skis, and a 24' power boat - this truck handles it all. I have only had one major repair related to the defroster, but it was expensive ($1000). I follow the maintenance schedule and get great reliability. We live in Chicago, and I never get slowed down because of snow. I'm getting ready to trade this one in, and am looking for the same model with low miles. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a really functional SUV.

My wife just slid on black ice and took out an entire telephone pole. The telephone pole was literally split in half and was all taken down to the ground, out of the spot it was in. She had no injuries and her jeep is barely damaged. Gonna be a very cheap shop repair like 400$ max. We got the jeep for $2,300 and have had it for about 6 months. Only issue it came with was the steering pump was going out. That's already been fixed. Cheap jeep, no issues, amazing suv, and very safe. Really happy my wife got a jeep it saved her life and seem indestructible. Jeep grand Cherokee limited edition v8 4 door. Has heated seats, very comfortable and spacious. Amazing vehicle. Highly recommended.

Owned my 2002 WJ for 10 years now , still runs great at 185k miles ! great engine (4.0 ) inline 6 , had to replace the starter once , rear main seal was leaking and the rear axle bearings and seals ...which are all typical for this model. It rides and drives great ! , very versatile , decent fuel economy , good looks too ! Had some weird electrical issues once , found the body grounds under the center console were a little loose ...tightened them up and all electrical demons went away .

First, there is a recall on the heated seats so call Chrysler if you have questions. I replaced mine twice before getting my recall just this month (June 2010)- $600 each seat. Brakes have been replaced twice - rotors bad. Transmission went out ($3k). Passenger window broke ($400). Power steering problems, replaced blendor on heater ($2k) in 2006; air- conditioning broke now must replace compressor, valve and blendors again ($2k+); CD player broke; gas cap broke; I maintain this vehicle well but it keeps having problems. This is the 5th Jeep I have had and never had any of these problems before this one.
What happened to quality?

I bought my 2002 Cherokee with 42k miles on it. It is now at 80K miles. The bulk of miles have come from traveling from utah to idaho to visit family and neither me or my wife are aggressive drivers. Since I have owned it here is a list of things that broke. Both front window motors, replaced all four rotors, fixed the transmission, radiator fan relay, The bearings in the back end shattered causing oil to leak onto the e-brake whole back end torn apart to fix that mess, blown head gasket, cracked head, water pump... I was so excited to get a Jeep and to support an American car company. 1st and last Jeep I will ever own. Nissan and Toyota, here I come.
