  • bad radio - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    I recently leased a 2016 Jeep Cherokee latitude after having a 2010 Lincoln . wanted something different . I was looking for a lot of extras and was surprised to find most of my wish list with this car. I am happy with how it drives and the extras, but I am writing this because I am so disappointed in the radio. I get a handful of stations and I have asked the service guy to check it , thinking there was something wrong., but was told it was a new radio and there was nothing wrong. I am not sure if anyone is having the same issue. I like listening to the radio not just a few stations. I am thinking on bringing it back because of this . so if you are about to purchase this jeep and you want a good radio , dont buy this jeep .

    Great car but should have got the V-6. U connect not worth the 895. Overall good car except for 4 cylinder

  • 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk 2.4L 4 Cycle - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    Bought this because I wanted the off road version, but was light in the wallet at the time of purchase. I suppose most people went with the V6 for the Trailhawk. I will say that if I met someone thinking about buying this car, I would say get the V6. You will be happier. That being said, the 2.4 4cyl tiger shark with the 9 speed transmission has kind of "learned" my driving habits, The transmission software issues from the 14 models are worked out and fixed. Sport mode is fun. I am happy I went with the "green" version. It is capable as hell, decent on gas,

  • Get the V6 - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    The Limited has great looks inside and out. Spend the extra and get the V6. Great get up and go. My only complaint would be the navigation system. I thought it was broken right after buying car. Can not program an address if parked in a lot that is not recognized by the satellite. ( Happened even in the service department parking lot.) Must then program with voice while driving. Service department knows about the glitch, but no fix available at this time. The connect system and screen also seems somewhat temperamental. (Has a mind of its own at times.) All in all, its a great SUV. The safety features are a bonus and make one feel secure. Press the @ button on your dash if you dont want the engine to stop when the car is at a stop sign, ect. (This feature was designed to save on gas, but it causes the engine to feel jumpy when going back in gear.) I would give the car and 8 out of 10. If you plan on keeping the car for a long, long time, get the extended lifetime warranty. It is worth it for peace of mind.

  • First-time SUV - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    The first thing I want to take the time to review is the buying experience. I went to the Auto Nation in Pembroke Pines, FL. My sales guy was Michael Lewis. I saw him the day before I actually purchased the vehicle and knew that he would be the one to take me through the process. I came in the next day, told him what I was looking for and he made the process as stress-free as possible (also to mention I am 8 months pregnant). This is my first SUV, so the rating I am giving is purely off of first impression. I have the limited, which has a lot of bells and whistles that are impressive. The leather interior was a must have for me, which only comes with all limited vehicles. The larger screen and technology is not only a great feature, but also good for safety. The car comes equipped with 10 airbags. I am having a baby really soon and the safety features was a big deal for me, as well as having the larger space. So far, I have had a smooth ride, but I am still in the brand new stage of the vehicle. I am comfortable and very happy with this purchase. I was also concerned with the heavy engine, which is not an issue. My overall experience with this purchase was really great. My salesman had my hard tag the next day and made sure anything that I was missing was ordered. I recommend purchasing this vehicle and recommend purchasing from that dealership.

  • Go to another dealer for work - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    I bought my Jeep Cherokee brand new and within a few days I had a problem of it stalling and turning off completely (not the added feature already on to save gas). Still does it after three trips to the shop and 10 months of frustration. Then it rained hard and the water came dribbling in the sunroof and now I wait because as soon as I used the elctronics to close it it sounded like it went off track...UGH....I should of stayed away...:(

  • Love it. Radio, electronics needs attention! - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    The button on the back of my steering wheel to navigate through pre-programmed stations has never worked. The dealer, Steve White in Hickory NC told me 3x they could find no problem. It skips stations, goes to stations never programmed, repeats several stations 2-3x. Havill in Jefferson WI saw the problem immediately. Despite their best efforts (replacing the button, updating the computer, new wiring harness) -its worse than ever. And now the tailgate opens on its own. Theyre contacting Chrysler but Im looking at trades. Ive had this since new, paid $40k, have the Trailhawk with 3.2 (which wasnt an option on this site), has only 15,000 miles.... Comfort, driving, etc is excellent. Very happy otherwise, but this is annoying enough to consider trade.

  • 2016 Jeep Cherokee Leak - 2016 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    I was so excited to purchase the anniversary edition 2016 Jeep Cherokee. I even had customer leather seats installed with the matching tangerine and white trim and had all the windows tinted. On August 11, 2016, Baton Rouge experienced an enormous amount of rain. Ive owned at least 20 cars in my lifetime and theyve been through hurricanes and rain before, so this particular day shouldnt have been any different. It wouldnt have been if Jeep had made sure all the wheel wells were sealed. I brought my Jeep to a dealer and thats what they found. The LF wheel well wasnt sealed properly and I had several inches of water in my drivers floorboard and behind the driver. The carpet held 2-3" of water for days before I noticed it. (10 total while trying to dry myself and waiting on the dealer) Im hoping thats the only area to leak and that it was repaired properly. Im still waiting for the dealer and Jeep to contact me if they will replace the carpet. Waiting and waiting!! The dealer did not dry my carpet or the pad at all. I had to do that myself with fans and blow dryers for days. I guess they thought if they put it back down I wouldnt notice. They didnt even remove the seat to check for any further damage to electrical or to dry. Im hoping I dont have any future electrical problems with my new purchase. Currently, Im having the Jeep inspected by my insurance and a second opinion from another Jeep dealer. As long as I know there is no future damage and that Jeep will stand behind replacing the carpet if needed, I still feel I made a good purchase. Out of all the suvs I looked at, the 2016 Cherokee was the most comfortable and easiest to handle.
