My jeep is amazing. It runs very good without any problems. The interior is nice! Exterior is even better. It is a fun to drive vehicle. The whole performance of the car is great. Grab a Jeep or test drive one and you'll see.

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland-A Piece of JUNK

I bought an '04 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland in 2005 w.a mere 22,000 miles on the odometer. Being loaded, this SUV cost $43,000+. I immediately learnt that both axle seals, & both rear shocks, were leaking. At 36,200 miles (200 miles out of the "warranty"), all "Hell" broke loose. The starter failed, the factory CD player died, power windows & door locks ceased to function (I've had this problem repaired 3+ times already), no Jeep dealership would help out even though this Jeep was only 200 miles out of "warranty", nearly every component in the front, and rear end of this piece of JUNK have been replaced. Plagued with the infamous "death wobble"....get to about 45 mph & it feels like the front end will self-destruct! Front fenders and rocker panels are rotted out, the frame and every other major component seem to be made of heavy gauge sheet steel which rot out, transmission started slipping at 117,000 miles. I can't wait to see this piece of JUNK go through the crusher, where it belongs. If You even remotely consider buying a Jeep, You're out of Your mind & You will be sorry! This is the biggest piece of JUNK I've owned in 50 years. A grossly overpriced LEMON, & my LAST Jeep. I curse the day I heard the word "JEEP"!

I got the 2004 limited 4.7L 8 cyl The dealer has been great. I was alittle disappointed with the realiability of my vehicle during delivery the engine light came on and has to be taken back to dealer. They were great drove it and said all looked good. I then drove it for 3 days . As I was driving lost total power and suv wouldn't move. It felt like the transmission. This is new how can this be. I shut off engine re- started and headed to a local dealer to find out it was a bad transmission switch. I am hoping this is all or I will be very sad. I truly love my SUV.

Wouldn't Drive Anything Else

I bought my jeep about a year and a half ago. This is my second grand Cherokee (my old one was a 95) and I absolutely love it. Sometimes I cringe when it costs me close to $70 to fill up though. My car is the "roadtrip car" and we've fit 7 people (trunk too) and nobody was squished. I love the leather and the back seats are really comfortable. I haven't had any problems with it, I get my oil changed on time, clean it too much, and it looks and drives brand new. This winter I used my 4wd practically every day (damn New England weather) and I never slid an inch. Awesome truck, I wouldn't drive anything else.

The 2004 Overland is loaded and looks great. It is smoother and quieter than the 2001 Limited model. Set up of interior is excellent. HO engine is fast and smooth.
