I have been extraordinarily pleased with it. I did have some concerns over Jeep's choice of transmissions for it, (it is a Mercedes transmission) but it has done just fine. My wife adores it too.

These cars are lemons. Every complaint here will eventually happen to you. Just replaced starter, now coolant leak, AC switches broken. I mean come on this car has 42,000 miles on it. I'd stay away from Jeep products, they are clearly not designing or building anything but a heap of junk.

Picked up my Jeep few months back, and we love it; unmatched off road abilities plus all the luxury. There is only one and it's JEEP.

I bought a 2005 Jeep Grand Cher Limited 4WD w/ the Hemi Upgrade in 05 brand new. In 06 I had to have a new transmission, transmission pump and onboard computer installed they told me it was the computer that caused the pump to malfunction which made the transmission go. I was told it would take two months by the dealership to get the part I called Chyrsler and they overnighted the part and lent me a 93 jeep as a loaner with a broken heater in the winter. In July of 08 my transmission went again the manager of the shop told me he didn't know why it happened. In November I didn't pass inspection because I had an electrical short in my ABS which cost $499 not under warranty. Be Careful

Bought this Jeep 5 months ago, have had nothing but problems, Had to rebuild front diff, bearings and now the front control module, which was not covered under the warranty... Wish i would have read more about this vehicle before i thought of buying this, i would have changed my mind....Very disappointing, Love the Style of the Jeep but very poor quality, Will trade this in soon as i can and gonna stick with Toyota or Honda.
