Well I went from foreign to American after 20 years with some good and bad news here for you all. Make sure you do your research and test things with this Jeep. List of my bads: 1. HVAC was poor at first, just google it or look for hot cabin in youtube. They did some updates that seems to have helped with that issue. 2. Shifter sucks, and now they threw on a SW fix that puts it in park every time I open the door, PIA for towing and backing things up. The new shifter design is finally a normal one, but not on this 2014. 3. Repair frequency is a let down. So far I have had both front bearings replaced around 36000, then the one failed again within 20k. Even though the 20k failure was out of the 3/36 warranty, I called Jeep to complain and they picked up the tab. At 57,000 I started having a odd vibration, now the one front axel is bad. This is covered under the powertrain warranty, so those buying this care new now, take that into consideration. 4. Both front axles have now been replaced as well. 5. Around 75k the radiator started leaking, that was an $1,100 repair bill. 6. Around 5 years in and 90k, the oil cooler leaked, another large bill around 1,000$. Looking at the design of it, it will fail, not a question of when, sad. Goods: 1. Interior is very nice. 2. Unconnect is very easy to use, and logically designed. Had an acura, hated that set up with their dual screens. 3. Noise, this thing is insulated very well. 4. Gas MPG I am routinely getting 24 on the high way and 19-20 mixed. Note, I never keep it in eco mode. 5. Towing, tows my 22ft pontoon boat just fine. Overall I like the car, I wish the rear glass would open up. I like the great res of the reverse camera. I had a Honda Pilot before this that started suffering from the VCM vibration on the highway, just google it, all their 6 cyls have this issue. Honda did nothing for me on that one at 36,000 when it started and Lehigh Valley Honda in PA let me buy new tires telling me the tires were causing it! They new damn well that was not the issue and when I showed them post new tires it is still happening their stance was that it is a characteristic of the car! Done with Honda for a long time, at least Jeep stood by their car and fixed the bearing for me and offered me an apology package for my annoyance with the issues. All cars have issues, just need to decide which ones you can live with or without. For me, I am keeping this till 100k when the warranty is out, then I will decide what is next at that time on the market, happy shopping! Update 9/30/2019 - now at 105,000 miles. Still like the car and trade in value sucks, so will run it another 30k or so and then maybe trade it in. Overall happy with it, but not the repair bills nor the heater still, still not right. 10/5/2020 - Update, now just at 109,000 miles, I had been driving my primary car and saving the jeep for towning duties mostly, hence not many miles on it over the past few months. Despite the repairs I would consider buying another one, actually debating buying one before they change it in 21 and get rid of the V6, I like the V6 for towing. I did drive a 2020 and the trans seemed better than mine. I also test drove a 4runner and while they are supposed to be bulletproof, the seats lack the adjustments and many other features were missing. Tough decision so unless I find the jeep I would want with the exact features this 2014 may stick around for a while longer since it is no longer my daily driver.

My wife and I both own a Jeep GC Overland. She has the 2013 V-8 Overland and as a result of our enjoyment of her car, I leased a 2014 V-6. Overall, excellent. Gas mileage on the V-6 is excellent for the vehicles' size. Interior is well laid out and very comfortable as we are both over 5'11" tall.

I love this jeep. The Navigation, Sound System, Hemi V8 power. I can connect my iphone wirelessly to the system and listen to all my songs. Seats are comfortable, Vehicle looks amazing. Got the 20 inch wheels. I drive almost all locally and short distances so my first mileage check im getting 14.7 mpg. Only thing I might have done differently is go with another color. I chose the green which usually looks black its so dark.
This Jeep is Amazing!

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
1 of 4 people found this review helpful
Bought the Summit in August, so I am just under two months in, and it is one heck of an improvement from my 2009 Overland (Hemi), which was very reliable and had very few problems. Ride and handling are improved, and the V-6 has plenty of power for just about anything short of pulling a large trailer. There was a problem with the Blind Spot Monitoring system, and the dealer just replaced its control module (less than an hour). My first trip during the first week yielded ~26 MPG, mostly on the highway. While I never buy a vehicle solely upon gas mileage, this was a nice bonus. Combined driving yields 22-23 MPG. The ZF 8-speed transmission makes this Jeep work well.
