This Year's Model Updates:

For 2010, the Jeep Grand Cherokee's Overland trim level has been discontinued, as have the 4.7-liter V8 and diesel engine options. Also, the lineup sees a shuffling of minor features among surviving trim levels.

Pros:
  • True off-road capability, decent on-pavement agility given its off-road prowess, incredible performance from the SRT8 model.
Cons:
  • Cramped backseat, limited cargo space, a true gas hog with the V8, underpowered and inefficient V6, bouncy highway ride.

  • Its Still a Jeep! - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    My family has been buying Jeeps for years now and has had generally pretty good luck with them. Our 2010 Grand Cherokee Laredo is no exception. Before believing the professional reviewers who claim the 3.7 liter V6 engine is underpowered, I suggest you drive one and decide for yourself. Mine has plenty of get up & go although the mileage could be better. My dealer was doubling the manufacturers rebate, meaning I saved over $10,000 off of MSRP before they looked at my trade-in.

  • In the shop after 3 days - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Purchased my JGC used w/28,000 miles on it. A couple days later engine light comes on. Dealer replace 02 sensor and on the way home it goes on again. Its been in the shop going on day #3 and now they say computer is shot. I dont think they no whats wrong with it. Im starting to think this was a bad purchase. At least it looks good.

  • I love my first Jeep! - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I bought this Jeep a little over 2 years ago and i absolutely love it! I love the ride and the way it handles and the build quality is pretty good. The only things I dont like about it is the gas mileage (average about 15 combined) and the front speakers have always been a little fuzzy. The low tire pressure gauge is a little too touchy also.

  • First Jeep GC - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Didnt even consider a Jeep when I was looking at new SUVs. The limited model was very smartly styled, black with chrome accents. I wanted a V8 w 4WD, with Nav, bluetooth, memory and heated seats. The 5.7 hemi is terrific, getting 15 mpg city and 17.5 hwy over first 10K miles. steering is precise, suspension is firm but sophisticated, not like a truck (or our 2000 EB Explorer). Brakes are the right balance of pedal pressure and stopping distance. I havent found anything that the 4WD couldnt handle on snowy mtn. roads. The Navi/radio/bluetooth system with voice interaction is very smart and responsive. This car is definitely smarter than I am . This car has been flawless.

  • Almost a Perfect SUV - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Got the 2010 Grand Cherokee Limited 4WD with 5.7L 8cyl Hemi. Love the manly Jeep body style. The thick, heavy, solid body and all time 4WD make me feel very safe in this SUV. The 5.7L Hemi has tons of power for uphill acceleration. Handling is great thanks to the firm suspension, the 18" wheels and the TRUE all time 4X4 (Quadra-Trac II which splits the power 50-50 front- rear by default). Surprisingly the cabin is very quiet even at 70mph. The dashboard layout is simple and straight forward. The GPS is easy to use without reading the manual. The leather seats are very soft and comfortable. I test- drove X5/MDX etc but overall none of them can compare with the 5.7L 8cyl Hemi Grand Cherokee.

  • Great Time to Buy a Grand Cherokee - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I have owned numerous BMWs over the years. I recently sold a 2007 550i and was considering an X5. I learned that Jeep was giving steep discounts on their 2010 models. I am very impressed with the Limited Hemi. Very solid and incredible features for the money. Very similar in size to the X5 in terms of back seat space. The best part is that purchased it for $7500 less than MSRP due to the dealer and Jeep discounts. Great time to buy a Grand.

  • My third Grand Cherokee - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Bought the Limited with the 5.7 Ltr hemi (not an option in the Edmunds drop down menu). After owning a 95 and 99, decided to go back to my old friend. So glad I did!

  • Price was right - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Great all around SUV. Bought the LAREDO 4wd w/5.7L Hemi, NAV, Quad-II, etc. All the options other than the Limited features. Boutt he vehicle during snomageddon on the east coast due to our lease being up on 2007 Grand Cherokee. 8,000 in rebates was hard to pass up and I am glad we did not. Great all around vehicle with so many options and very little cost due to the rebates.

  • Auto Off Lights - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This is my only disappointment with my first Jeep. The auto off for lights is not standard and cannot be added. I havent had to pay attention to turning off lights for YEARS. This could have been a deal breaker if I had realized prior to purchase.

  • Great vehicle, but lousy tires - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    In general, this is a great vehicle with awesome power and better than expected H/W mileage. Jeep blew it, though with the tires. Weve sliced (and destroyed) 2 tires on easy gravel roads! No one sells better 18" tires. Will have to downsize to 17" in order to get better off road tires. Chrome-clad wheels on an off road vehicle is dumb ... they chip easily. My wife freaks now when we drive on any sort of rough road. Jeeps reputation has been tarnished in my book!
