Model Overview:

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is one of the pioneers that ushered in the modern midsize SUV in the early 1990s. Jeep has always wanted the Grand Cherokee to be maneuverable enough for urban duty, roomy enough for family duty, stylish enough to take out on the town and capable enough to tow your toys or shuttle your passengers to a remote campsite. Modern Grand Cherokees are far more refined than the early models, but they're no less versatile.

Unlike most other traditional SUVs, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has always been built using a carlike unibody platform for superior on-road handling. Yet Jeep's strong reputation for off-road prowess is retained, thanks to the Grand Cherokee's advanced four-wheel-drive systems and capable suspension. It's a rare combination of attributes in a modern utility vehicle, as the Jeep is able to venture farther off the beaten path than competing crossover SUVs.

  • New to Jeep - 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I recently purchased a 2007 Grand Cherokee Laredo Rocky Mountain edition. It is a certified one-owner car with only 17,500 miles on it, so it is virtually still a new vehicle. Interior and exterior are almost pristine, with little sign of wear. The only complaint I have is, that the alloy wheels have some scratches on them, but I will try to buff them out. Car feels and drives like new. It has a sliding moonroof, and the premium Boston stereo system. No bluetooth, unfortunately, but I can use a bluetooth earpiece. I had considered a Ford Escape, but this Jeep is a good deal bigger and rides much better.

  • Never Getting One of These Again! - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    We bought this Jeep used and one year old last fall. Since then it has been nothing but a money pit. The left front wheel bearings went out at 40k miles. The check engine light comes on and off constantly. The gas mileage is horrendous, much less than the sticker claims. The windshield cracked under the windshield wipers and it is clearly a defect as there are two separate cracks that line up w/ the front defrost, and it happened in winter when the defrost was running a lot. Chrysler refuses to fix this defect. Oh, and the seats stain from water! By far the worst car weve ever had.

  • The best & longest vehicle ever owned - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Bought my Jeep with 69k, now rolling 95k. Only minor problems, nothing I needed a shop for. Fan relay the most recent. HVAC smells of mildew & AC doesnt blow cold anymore & doesnt hold a charge. Seems like every car Ive bought always looses AC after a year :( buy hey, its a jeep, who needs AC :) This is my daily driver, driving 100 a week/2x month. Never had any problems with the engine & spark plugs are easy to change on the I6 engine. I would buy another jeep, just not a new one

    My experience with this car has been excellent, although now that I have over 70,000 miles, there have been a few minor annoyances. The driver window switch stopped working and had to be replaced. Replacing the headlight bulb is a hassle. The gas milage has been disapointing- about 14.5 mpg. The engine is great- lots of power and acceleration. Other than the few minor items above, it has been a great car. The ride is a little harsh. The exterior styling looks great.

    The Jeep has been a wonderful all purpose vehicle. I have had no problems other than typical for an auto, regular maintenance. The interior layout is good, although the rear tire does take up some cargo space. The stereo is great although I have the infinity system upgrade. The GC rides and drives great, the 4x4 is flawless, i must admit it can be alittle thirsty at the pump and i have the 6 cylinder. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an all purpose suv.

  • Fine Choice - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This is my first Jeep so I cant compare to past models; however this is my 3rd SUV and so far its been great. The technology in this vehicle is current, not outdated leftovers; the build feel in tight and responsive. The 5.7 Hemi...well lets just say youll never understand it without test driving this vehicle. Great looks and a great driver. Goes anywhere when needed. This is the most complete vehicle Ive ever owned. Had an 04 VW Touareg that was also a fine SUV except the reliability was terrible.

  • Third Jeep...best one yet - 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I have leased or bought three Jeeps in my life \time. The Overland edition is classy with very clean lines. The Hemi engine fits my need to flex my muscle to a tee.

  • Stay clear - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I unloaded my 05 limited, it had all the options and was my dream vehicle. I bought it at one year old to save a few bucks. Im sorry i ever traded my 2000 Cherokee for it. In the two years I owned it it leaked from the sunroof badly, blew a rear seal and had to replace the rear. Had two computer modules go. If your having weird things go on it is usually one of the modules. Everything was replaced under warranty and seemingly fixed but the luster had worn off because of the poor quality and I sold it as soon as the warranty expired. If i had to pay for the repairs myself it would have cost over $3,000. Jeep and Chrysler is off my list to buy for good. Only had 37,000 miles, what a shame.

  • love my Jeep! - 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This is the 3rd Jeep Ive owned in the past 20 years, and while the Laredo was my favorite when I was younger, Ive got to say there comes a point when all the bell and whistles are nice to have! I know Jeeps, and I know they need preventative care, Having said that, regular maintenance is not a problem. If you are looking for a quality vehicle, safe, roomy and enjoyable to drive to that cabin in the woods, or skiing, you cant go wrong with the Orvis. Watch out for ignition switch wear, I have learned to have them pulled and replaced at 100k, wear on this can cause automatic shut-down on the vehicle.

  • Price was right - 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Great all around SUV. Bought the LAREDO 4wd w/5.7L Hemi, NAV, Quad-II, etc. All the options other than the Limited features. Boutt he vehicle during snomageddon on the east coast due to our lease being up on 2007 Grand Cherokee. 8,000 in rebates was hard to pass up and I am glad we did not. Great all around vehicle with so many options and very little cost due to the rebates.
