Great Used Vehicle - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By Joshy007 - October 4 - 12:46 amI bought my 1999 JGC from a friend (third owner in all). Just clocked 161,000 miles. Outside of maintenance items (battery, brakes, tires, shocks, fluid changes, a/c charge) the car has needed to have the steering linkage and front axles replaced for a total of $450. As for fuel economy I am not sure how others are driving but driving like a mad man I am around 17.5-18.5 mpg and reasonable driving I am getting 20-21 mpg. The drivetrain is still strong and all the little things seem to be holding up. Alloy wheels clear coat is faded & flaking. The starter is beginning to struggle a bit so that may be the next thing to get fixed. All together for about a $4,500 investment a great find

All around perfect vehicle! - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By 4x4thewin - June 12 - 9:47 amAfter such bad luck and poor choice in vehicle purchases I feel like I finally found a gem! Purchased my 1999 JGC from a relative, me being the 2nd owner and it just rolled over 175k miles. Lucky for me it came from the south, as I live outside of Detroit and our roads and weather eat cars up. I love everything about my Jeep, it rides like a truck, but feels smooth like a luxury car. Its had overall minor replacements done, all routine work. Planning on replacing the motor in the next 6 months, as the rod bearings are just starting to act up. Other than that and some foggy head lamps, its in stellar shape. My next vehicle purchase will definitely be another Jeep!

Great SUV - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By GolfNut - February 13 - 2:00 amMy Limited has been a pleasure to own. The brake problem is the only dissappointment. Chrysler should take responsibility for their poor brake design. Other than the brakes the vehicle has been totally trouble free.

Great Investment! - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By cdubya87 - January 27 - 7:06 pmPurchased this car used in 1999 - had about 127,000 miles on it. Ive got 175,000 now and Im making the first major repair. Replaced the radiator last year, it was cheap and easy - this year it needs a new motor. Outside of that, Im a storm chaser and have had this poor Jeep at 100+mph on dirt back roads in heavy rains and hail and it is the most amazing vehicle Ive ever owned. I also have family through the state and have traveled frequently - great gas mileage, both city and highway and the comfort of this car is amazing. Its flexibility is great too - having added a laptop and some other components for my storm chasing. Just a great great car and Ill buy another and another!

Great Vehicle - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By Swiggie - September 29 - 9:40 amI have 3 cars right now, a 1999 BMW 325is, a 2000 Ford Taurus and a 1999 Jeep. Out of the three cars I have to say the Jeep is more reliable then any of them. I am the 3rd owner on the Jeep and 2nd on the Ford. They both had about the same mileage on them at time of purchase. I will recommend this Jeep to anyone who wants the 4x4 capability with luxury like a Cadillac.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By AmCraft - May 27 - 2:00 amI heard alot of negitive things about the Jeep. After buying one, I love the feel of the ride, the handling of its 4 wheel select-trac system. I thas been an over all joy to own and drive. I have heard from other people, that some SUVs have different drive systems (automatic shifting). As far as I am concerned, if you cant control when it will shift, you cant control the vehicle. That is what makes this jeep lover happy.
