I love you jeep, but this car is not the best.

Here's how bad it is at 180,000 miles - window regulators - TERRIBLE, cheap design that causes them to break all the time. Have been through about 6 of them. Oil leak - this thing leaks like crazy, if your jeep isn't leaking then its out of oil lol! Valvetrain noise - annoying clattering from valvetrain, have been chasing it forever and It's lifters, requires you to remove the cylinder head to replace on the 4.0L motor, what a pain. Water pump failed recently, transmission is clunky and car makes all sorts of noises before its all warmed up. I don't enjoy driving in something that feels like it's about to fall apart personally. If you see these listed online, THEY'RE CHEAP FOR A REASON! Don't buy one, unless you like fixing cars! People try to defend jeep with their lives, but these grand cherokees just aren't reliable. Sorry jeep enthusiasts - this can hardly be considered a jeep anyway - the only "jeep" thing about it is the engine, the rest is cheap chrysler made garbage. THOROUGHLY disappointed with this purchase, will be buying a more reliable car in the near future. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this one. -Ray
