2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
45 of 51 people found this review helpful
Just returned from a trip to WV, and my Grand Cherokee performed flawlessly. This is my first Jeep (formerly a Ford lover), and I am not saying this because it's mine, but Jeep has don their homework on this vehicle. We drove over 700 miles on out trip, but I did not experience any sore back, arms or buttitis. Most comfortable and easiest to drive vehicle I have ever owned. Fuel mileage was 22mpg overall and the air ride suspension is wonderful, especially when getting in or out. Up date, still in love with my Jeep. I have only one complaint and Jeep is working on it, the transmission when cold shifts really hard into reverse or drive, depending on parking angle, but my dealer stated that the transmission needs to learn my driving habits. Taking it to the dealer for the fourth time this week. Other than that, it has performed flawlessly.

2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Loved the vehicle at first sight. Before making the purchase I did a lot of researching online and through family/friends and co workers who may or may not have owned a jeep and/or if they knew someone with one. It was a 70/30 positive feedback. So my wife and I decided to go for it. 2/15/18 Brand new Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude. drove off the lot with 5-10 miles on it. Again, loved it. Everything about it was just what we wanted. Perfect size for a new young couple with kids, storage was perfect. Even our 5YO son liked the vehicle. 3 months into the vehicle, I started to notice some minor tech issues. At first I thought it was some kind of fluke, but it was not. Consistent tech issues. GPS wasn't accurate, safety air bag light came on, twice my rear view camera did not turn on when trying to reverse. And just recently 5/30/18 while backing out of my driveway, emergency brakes locked up on me. Nothing behind me or around me, it just locked up thinking I was going to crash into something. Sensor for the gas pump was broken. The sensor would turn the pump off thinking the tank is full when it really was not. First time Jeep owner and I was honestly looking forward to keep this vehicle til she dies. Could be our luck that we purchased one that had more issues. Overall disappointed, it being a brand new vehicle makes it even worst

2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
24 of 27 people found this review helpful
A wide variety of models. I chose the Trailhawk with the driver assist radar technology, it had all the options of a Mercedes GLE, but nearly 40% less cost. I drive about 25k miles a year so leasing was not an option. the car is top notch. I especially find the Trailhawk's signature racing stripes on a White JGC with dark gray matt finish wheels, my pick of the litter. I will say however, after owning it for 3 months, i have experienced MPG is 15.5 STREET and 20 HWY. Also, there seems to be a glitch with the radio. It keeps displaying my local weather and surf report every 1/2 hour or so. It's annoying but more so distracting. forcing me to close the popup window on the screen each time. The dealer keeps telling me they are aware of the problem and a software update is forthcoming. Overall, with the rebates and incentives, you get your bang for the buck even if it's going cost you a little extra at the pump.

2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

BUYERS BEWARE!!! Especially those with families!!! Had a 17 Grand Cherokee. It would shut off while driving. It happened more than once and it was not throwing a code nor could they replicate the problem. It was elevated to FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automotive) after I refused to take the vehicle back after no repair attempt was made and i was just told to take the car back. I thought if Jeep knew it was a safety issue they would absolutely help us out! I just wanted another car to live out the life of my loan or credit as a trade in. No solution was offered they just told me it needed to happen again while they drove it and I was told to pick it up. Their solution was to have me and my two babies,under 3, drive around and replicate it then have it towed in....if we didn’t die first!!! We ended up selling it to car max, apparently according to Jeep there was no problem. That’s not a good business practice to put small children in danger to make a buck. We also called the dealership to see if they would just take it back and be even, they said no. Wonder why. We lost about $13,000 in the form of our trade in, money down, payments made for a year and then had to pay $1,100 just to get rid of the car. I cannot believe how money hungry this company is. It makes me sad, I never thought such a well known dealer would treat good customers like this. So now i want to let future good customers know how they do business.

2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

This is a review of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland with the 5.7 hemi (there was no option for this in the drop-down menu above) with the upgraded Quadra Drive II 4x4 system. I wanted a commute vehicle that could also handle my frequent off-road excursions, that would be comfortable and convenient for everyday use, carry four adults easily, and yet not be too bulky off-road. I was skeptical about purchasing a product from FIAT Chrysler as combining two companies famous for poor quality and poor reliability didn't seem like a great way to produce vehicles you can depend on and certainly FCA doesn't seem to have much confidence either because they only provide a 36 month/36,000 mile warranty. But I couldn't afford a Range Rover and the standard SUV isn't any use off-road, so that left a very limited range of choices. I'd already dismissed buying a Jeep Wrangler as I've zero interest in returning to the 1970s. So that left the Grand Cherokee Overland or a new Land Rover Discovery or a used Toyota Land Cruiser. So far in 8 months of ownership I've put 14,000 miles on the vehicle of which around 600 have been off-road in a variety of conditions. The navigation system has many flaws (for example, if I'm using navigation then chances are I'm not familiar with the area, so why tell me "obstruction ahead between X road and Y road?" Why not say "obstruction ten miles ahead"? Once I got informed about an accident more than 100 miles ahead of me, which was hilariously useless). The puddle-lamps are on the mirrors, which means when you step out of the vehicle you can't see what is under your feet. And the rear stowage space is modest, as befits a midsized vehicle. But overall I've been impressed by the Jeep, especially as the 5.7 hemi provides unstressed power and torque for any situation. I opted for the upgraded 4-wheel drive Quadra Drive II and full off-road package and would recommend that to anyone planning more than a picnic-style trail hop. I wish rock rails had been optional for the Overland but instead they cost me $1,000 to purchase and install. It's early days and doubtless FCA will ensure I spend a significant chunk of change on repairs, especially after the vehicle crosses the 36,000 mile mark, but so far I've been more pleased with the vehicle than I expected to be. It's supremely comfortable even on long (800-miles per day) journeys, it handles the trails very well, and the infotainment is acceptable. The auto heating/cooling feature is totally unpredictable, sometimes activating itself at a particular temperature and at other times going well below or above without any activation occurring, but manual activation requires only a few blips though the sub-menus. I haven't yet put the vehicle into deep water, but it should handle 24" without too much difficulty provided the door seals hold. For people just wanting an SUV for the school run, a rear-wheel lower option Grand Cherokee should suffice, but for people like me who want comfort with serious trail capability, getting the optional Quadra Drive II is a must-have. I also recommend fitting a winch for those infrequent but annoying times when you really, really need one.
