  • First SUV-Disappointed - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    Leased it in September of 2000. Tremendous ability in the snow but thats about it. Had front brake rotors replaced at 6000 miles due to warping. Then had new rotors resurfaced at 17,000 miles due to warping. Nobody at the dealership can tell me why this vehicle is burning up front rotors. I have an annoying whine coming from the transmission area but the dealership says thats normal. Thank God its a 3 year lease with a waranty. Looking forward to getting rid of it.

    I have been very dissapointed with the 2000 Jeep I bought. It has had a lot of problems while under warranty and seems to be having problems since. As soon as I can break even on a trade in Im getting rid of it.

  • Chrysler and Ferman Sucks - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    When I purchased the Jeep it had bad rust on the under carriage pitted metal on frame, muffler, steering arms, etc... cause by exposure to salt, on a brand NEW Vehicle! The Dealer and Chrysler refused to do anything about it, stating that it was an acceptable amount - Not for me or anyone I showed it to.

    Loud noisy engine. Uncomfortable rough bumpy ride. VERY VERY VERY bad brakes for all jeeps, ROTORS are all made inferior as per factory rep.

  • Its a Chrysler - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    Its cheap! But not cheap enough! I should have spent the extra 50$ a month and got a Blazer. Cool classic rugged styling, but, rough ride, BAD breaks, noisey,and below average overall quality. In and out for warranty work 7 times. Resale is very very bad,, cant find a dealership that wants another one sitting on their lot.

  • RETHINK YOUR PURCHASE - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    Hind-sight is always 20/20 and I really wish we would have listened to the advise of others. Our Jeep has been towed so many times to the dealer for various problems, its a shame we dont get frequent flyer miles! I could list a whole variety of problems, but if replacing a transmission at 31K miles doesnt tell you everything, please contact me and I would be very willing to sell my Jeep to you!

  • My Cherokee the money pit - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    To begin with, when I bought my Jeep it was the dream 4wd vehicle that I wanted. But, since I left the lot I have had numerous problems with my Jeep. I bought my truck with 3 miles and at 5 miles my back rotor was falling off! Dealer replaced for some reason rather than putting the original correctly back on. Since then, I have gone to the dealer about 4 times about my antifreeze depleting every 100 miles I have to refill. Now I am having serious trouble with my oil pressure. 3 visits to the dealership has cost me about $1200 and still I do not have any oil pressure when a stop. Now I am trying to see if my situation was possibly a lemon.
