  • STAY AWAY FROM JEEPS! - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Oh, where to start! Ive had this POS for 4 months and have had it to the dealership 6 times! Brake rotors warp, Steering column clicks, sunroof when opened makes a rattling sound, the Jeep pulls to the right, big time! The dealer tells me this is normal and that its the "crown on the road", WHATEVER! This vehical is the WORST vehical Ive ever owned. Not only will I never buy a Jeep, Ill never buy a Chrysler after being dicked around by the dealership so much, they were very painful to deal with!

    This is a great SUV, from towing to daily commutes. Easy to drive, easy to park. Transmission is great as it keeps in lower gears for more spirited driving. Downside is that I have to have the front brake rotors turned annually as they warp and cause brake pulsation.

  • My second JCG - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This is the second JCG I have owned. I have had it from 30 k to 48 k in Chicago. No problems so far. Ideal commuter, hauler, bad weather transportation, and taxi cab drag racer. Cleans up well enough for a night on the town. A good friend bought the Laredo version (2001), and it was clearly a Lemon. He changed to the limited version with the K package (like mine), and now is very happy.

  • An honest opinion of the 2000 Gr. Cherok - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    With every Jeep when you 1st get it you probably will have to bring it in at lesat 4x for warranty work in the 1st 6 months. However after that its ok.

  • Absolute Trash! expt for the speakers - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This car has been nothing but trouble. Just like evryone else Ive gone back to the dealer 3 times and 2 of those times I had to pay for the repairs myself. Good thing my lease is up in January. Youll see me at the BMW and Acura dealers looking at the MDX and X5. No more american trash for me!

  • Replaced too many parts in the 1.5 years - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    So far I have replaced Water pump, 2 window motors, brakes and air conditioner compressor. Mechanic says these are all known bad parts!! Jeep should reacall some of these if they are know to have bad parts. WOULD NEVER BUY A JEEP AGAIN!!!

  • Dont buy a Grand Cherokee - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I had more problems with that Jeep than any other vehicle I have ever owned. The transmission dropped within the first year along with many other small problems. I am also disappointed at the resale value of the Grand Cherokee. The manufacturer has taken steps to increase their sales while decreasing the resale value. Since I purchased my Jeep, Chrysler has offered a 7/70 power train warranty which I needed on my Jeep and creating options packages that offer more equipment and features for a lot less. I have been very disappointed and I finally traded the Jeep in last week. I am glad to be rid of it.

  • Radiators, radiators and more radiators - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I bought my jeep at 78K and now has 112K. Its a I6 4.0L. It is really comfy, and quiet, but eats up tires. Ive put 3 radiators in it, and a new fan, fan motor, and relay. It never left me on the side of the road, but it almost always has something wrong with it. Drivers side window regulator broke twice. Gets me to where I need to go and never have to worry about getting to the slopes. Just make sure you have money to keep it going.

  • Quality Not There - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Bought this vehicle with 14k. At 20k, yup, brakes. Dealer did replace them at no cost and brakes have been ok. Door locks broke twice,leaks,weather stripping unglued, bushings,door panel loose, leather seat ripping,vinyl tear,and now rust on upper corner of windshield where roof meets the molding. Ive seen this problem on 2000 models. Newer models have longer moldings. Also putting up with some rattles. I bought the Jeep because I think it has great looks and it does handle really well in the snow/offroad. Power is great with the V8. Though the dealer has been good, I dont want to spend my free time at the dealership. So far not impressed with Jeep.

  • Love it! - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This vehicle FIT me, the minute I slid behind the wheel. Everything was within reach, and the steering wheel did not have to be in my lap in order to reach the pedals. I have had no trouble at all with my Jeep. She has performed like a champ, in all kinds of weather and conditions. The only time she has ever been into the dealership is for routine maintenance. I know Jeeps do not have a great reputation for quality, but mine has been superb!
