  Good, Bad and Ugly - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Jpg - February 14 - 10:00 am

  Good - 4.7 V8 engine screams. What a Rocket. Bad - Ride is interesting with solid axles and short wheelbase. Ugly - A/C could be better. Live in Texas so keep that in mind. Overall - Very solid and reliable truck.

  I think overall it was a good purchase. - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By jglen - January 26 - 10:00 am

  I think the Jeep is beatiful, and it runs excellent. Ive kept it in good shape, and pretty much the only thing I regret about it is not getting the sunroof. It has needed only the following minor repairs, so I think the 100k miles extended Chrysler warrantee I got was necessary: some problem with a transmission seal, the lock mechanism wouldnt let me start the car one day, fuel pump needed to be replaced. So only twice in 2 years I have not been able to drive it. The warranty covered 100%. so It was not bad at all, considering this Jeep is an awesome ride, very comfortable in long and short drives,

  Beware before Getting This Jeep!! - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By etravel - January 22 - 7:46 pm

  I bought this truck I loved it in the beginning. Its approx a little over a year and it has done nothing but given me problems. The first thing was the driver side window motor and regulator. That was $330 alone. A couple months later the coil pack was going bad (only four out of the eight) that was very pricey. Couple months later my steering wheel fluid was leaking. Next my radiator was leaking, had to replace that thermostat, etc. Then couple months later got a tune up thinking this would help mileage and help it drive somewhat better. The next day the truck shut off while in park. Thinking mite be fuel pump is why car keeps shutting off (due to bad gas months ago) way to much money for maintenance!

  Quality is just not there. - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By steve - January 9 - 3:36 pm

  This vehicle is not deserving of its $40k price tag. What a shame because its a lot of fun to drive when its not in the shop. With less than 60K miles, this vehicle has been in the shop four times for major repairs, which have included: 1 - Brakes. Rotors replaced 3 times; calipers once. Fortunately all under warranty. 2 - CD Changer. 3 - Drivers side heater assembly failed. 4 - Tranmission Control Module (TCM) needed to be reprogrammed and various other tranmission work was required. 5 - Door Locks failed. 6 - Speaker blew. 7 - Steering column required adjustment. Needless to say, if you decide to purchase a JGC, get an extended warranty! Youll be glad you did.

  Transmission Troubles - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By KAM - November 7 - 10:00 am

  The transmission is terrible. It has been at the dealers numerous times because it hestitates and slams into gear. Everytime the dealer "fixes it", the problem worsens, to the point of slamming into gear 2x between 15-20 mph producing a bucking effect. The ackward shifting is more dominant when the car is warmed up & between 15-30 mph. It also has much difficulty switching from Park to Reverse. Although the ride (suspension) is very comfortable, it is offset when you are bumping into different gears. Since the transmission is a costly repair that the dealers "speciality" mechanics cant handle I wouldnt recommend this vehicle.

  2000 Laredo at 280k - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By vicpick58 - September 21 - 8:16 am

  I bought this Jeep used with only 17k miles and used it for a work vehicle. I drove it up to 1000 miles per week until it got up to about 250k miles. I liked this Jeep so much, I bought another one (a used 2004) in 2007. But I kept the 2000 for use as the wifes daily driver. It is still going strong at 280k miles. The engine (4.7) and transmission have never given me any trouble. Oh sure there have a lot of minor things go wrong, such as the electric door locks, throttle position sensor, waterpump, alternator, axle seals and those kind of things. The only major repairs have been the front differential and the engine computer. Jeeps do require more regular maintenance than some other vehicles

  Pure Jeep. - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Neill - September 10 - 6:16 pm

  This vehicle has been great with regular maintenance and a fair amount of care. I love the features of the car and the engine is also just fine for me. Everyone says this vehicle has reliability issues. Although I have had the same problem as everyone with the brakes, Ive had no other unusual problem for the life of this car. To fix the brake problem I simply replaced the front rotors and calipers (&pads) with an aftermarket setup and Ive had no further problems. The Jeep isnt known for being perfect. Its known for being able to go anywhere, do anything, when you want to. This car allows me to do that, and in comfort.

  First Time,Last time Jeep owner - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By SKYMAN - August 24 - 5:13 am

  Purchased Jan. 07. 13 days later Jeep replaced a cracked head gasket. Then the battery had to be replaced, then the ECU, then the gauges would tick & bottom out even with the key out. Then the tach and speedo stopped working. My mechanic & Jeep cant figure this out. Im done with Jeeps after this! I will miss some things like how well it turned! the upgraded braking system I installed, the sound system, the way my baby handled in the snow and the lack of a car payment! Darn Jeep!!! :-(

  Fun to drive - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By david - July 13 - 9:30 am

  I bought a used Grand Cherokee about 3 months ago and have had absolutely no problems with it. I bought the V8 and only get about 18 MPG but sold my 3/4 ton suburban for it so the gas mileage is great! Very fast with the V8, have gotten up to 115 in this with virtually no shaking or noises of any kind. I needed a mountain goat for the winter so I can get up the mountain for Skiing and have no concerns with powering through feet of fresh powder.

  New motor and 180k miles later... - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By dburkland1028 - May 23 - 9:53 am

  I got my Grand Cherokee about a month ago from a wholesaler for $2000. Obviously it was a little rough around the edges with some dents and high miles (180k) but with a new 4.0 V6, this Jeep runs strong! The tranny is stock and shifts cleaner than a lot of brand new cars. For an SUV in its size range, the mileage is amazing. I get about 20 in city and up to 28 on highway. Mine suffered the plague of this model GC with warped front rotors. It was a quick and cheap fix, however, buying one with body damage is a risk, especially around the doors. Being a unibody car, the frame gets bent very easily, which is the last remaining problem on mine. Beautiful interior, lots of space, A+ ride!
