Used 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV Consumer Reviews
made to last
The only issue is the cold--heat air changer. The flap that diverts the temperature is notorious for staying on heat even when you adjust to cool. The exchanger is replaceable for ab $500 parts, labor, etc..

Look at the safety ratings FIRST
Ma and Pa here! We bought our 2008 Jeep GC Limited with a 3.0L Diesel with 40,000 miles on it. Perfect condition. No issues at all. Loved the sunroof, 4x4 driving on our WA beach, seat warmers helped our arthritis -- then the accident at 104K. Pa driving alone ended up hitting head on with Ford F 250 at 45 mph with no time to break. Totaled our Jeep completely but thank goodness for 5 star safety standards, Pa was stunned by the instant airbag deployment but got out of the door on his own and walked away. To say the least, the vehicle was undriveable, engine smashed to smithereens and transmission was completely disengaged. I was just grateful Pa was alive and uninjured. Much as I loved all the features we had in this rare version of JGC, it was the excellent safety standards that saved a precious life.

Fun and good value, but???
I agree with everyone, it is a fun vehicle, and the 4.7l v8 is a thrill! I bought 2 Rocky mountain models, both with the 4.7's. My problem has been quality and Chrysler. One door had 1/4" drop, and the instrument cluster blistered. Chrysler llc's support and dealer support are non existent. After great hassle they have had the vehicle for > 36 days, and > 6 attempts. Worst part is that they have since caused more damage than if I had hit a deer. Bottom line is it is a really fun vehicle... But quality is questionable, and support of product is non existent! Hope this helps buyers find things before purchase.
