Where do I begin? I owned this jeep for about 2 years. Only put about 10k on it. It currently has 92,000 on the dot. I replaced radiatier , transmission lines. Put a after market trans cooler on it. New muffler. Outer tie rods. New iac (idle air control valve) new computer. New battery and alternator. New valve cover seal. Does leak oil from rear main seal but I only put a half a quart in every three months. Not a bad leak at all. Ac is still ice cold for being 15 years old. This jeep has never left me stranded. Always broke as soon as I got home which is weird. I love this jeep in the snow. Half the time I don't even need 4wd. When I do use the 4wd it drive threw anything. Things a tank. Great ride but consumes a lot of maintenance. So I advise a machanic to own this type of jeep haha. My machanic is getting sick of it and so is my bank account. Over all a good jeep.

I purchased a 6 cyl 4WD JGC Laredo last year - I sold it with 17,500 miles on it. Nothing but problems, front brake rotors had to be resurfaced twice, fuel pump had to be replaced, passenger electric window motor went out, etc... Serious defects with a vehicle that cost $28,000. I also have a toyota tacoma - the exception being that this vehicle has 152,000 miles on it and still going strong. Until Jeep fixes these quality defects - I would be very hesitant when buying another Jeep vehicle - just talk with others who have owned a Jeep Grand Cherokee.

I bought my 2002 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4WD used with 66k miles. I drove it to 140k miles and just sold it in 2018. At around 100k miles it really started going down. The cloth interior was ripping out, power windows, a/c, rear wiper, radio, etc. stopped working. The radiator blew and it had a history of overheating and making clunking noises. The transmission also started slipping. I just couldn’t put anymore money into it. I did enjoy driving it, it had space for a family of 5, 4WD was great during Midwest winters. I wish it would have lasted longer because I’d still be driving it. Jeeps are cool, there’s no doubt about it. My new suv is not a Jeep, I need my vehicles to last longer after paying it off.

The '02 sure is better than the '99

It looks like Jeep did something right compared to the junk 1999 I had, I could'nt pass up the '02 JGC SE because of the price, Listed for over 32k and paid 25k. So far I have no complaints like I did on the '99. One thing that stayed the same is the HORRIBLE GAS MILAGE. I average 13MPG, but what can you expect from a 4000lb vehicle with QuadraTracII
Should have kept my Audi

Word to the wise do not ever buy one. I used to work for jeep and when I bought it wasn't sure if I was making the right choice. Then I realized that my Audi was not going to tow my snowmobiles and jetskis so I bought it thinking that since I work for jeep it will be easy for me to fix. Well, I will say I was thinking wrong. This car has broke down so many times I don't even know were to start. Starter rear diff, trans. The biggest of them all was when my wife was driving on the expressway and the seat frame snapped. When it snapped it fliped the seat back about 8 inches. Which almost caused a huge wreck.
