Worst vehicle I’ve owned.

I owned my 2007 Grand Cherokee for almost 5 years. Bought it with 27,000 miles and it had 117,000 when I traded it in today. The last two years I’ve had to repair it at least once a month. The water pump went out 4 times. The transmission wouldn’t stop leaking no matter how many times you replaced the gasket. The windows and locks constantly shorted out. My wife broke the glovebox by simply opening it. The transmission was the noisiest I’ve ever heard in my life. The seat was comfortable at short distances but was like a torture chamber at long distances. It was a good vehicle until about 50,000 miles. It then became a huge pain. It was an amazing vehicle in the snow. I have to give it that. Kept my family safe during harsh upstate New York winters.

I come from all-Japanese car background (our second family car is Honda Accord). My JGC was leased because of the terrific deal, and this is the only good thing about the Jeep ownership. I will gladly join other mad reviewers about the sluggishness of the transmission: it often "refuses" to shift gear for 4-5 seconds, unless I press the accel. pedal all the way to the floor. What a joke?! My other complaints: predatory gas consumption, weak engine for the weight of the body, cheap interior appointments, skimpy storage volume in the hatch (my friend's Honda CR-V, which is a compact SUV, can fit more items in its hatch), dull doors that spring back after opening, unless one sticks out a foot.

I bought the Jeep with only 3 miles on it. I, too, have experienced the uncertainty of whether the Jeep will accelerate and the windows I think are possessed. The dealership tells me "We can't reproduce these problems". Now, as the final insult, the engine "has thrown a rod" and I am expected to pay between $7,000-8,000 to get this fixed. I do not have all of my oil change receipts. I am told the oil was 2 quarts low. The oil was changed 5 weeks before the engine blew. No engine light came on, no oil light, no warning. I will never buy another Jeep product. For the money I have spent, I should be driving this vehicle for more than 3 years.
I love mine

I love my Jeep. It's fun to drive, comfortable (and I'm 6'3" 250 pounds). It has all the right options, and I LOVE being able to use E-85 in it. I haven't had anything go wrong with it, and there was only 1 service recall issue, new antilock brake firmware. It's reasonably good on gas, not Honda levels, but I didn't expect that from it. It's large enough to haul the items I frequently need to haul, without being too big when not hauling things. It's easy to drive and will climb almost anything. I haven't found deep enough snow yet to stop it and the stability control system is superb.

This was my first Jeep I've ever bought and to be honest for a winter vehicle I don't think I'll ever buy anything else. I've driven several SUVs and trucks and I have to say by far the Jeep Cherokee is the absolute best vehicle I've ever driven in the Snow. The 5.7 eats through the gas though I would recommend maybe going with the 3.7 or 4.7 if your worried about gas millage. With the 5.7L this vehicle can really move but again 14 MPG is a little steep when gas prices are high.
