  Decent Car - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Laura - March 9 - 5:16 pm

  I have 130,000 miles on the Grand Cherokee and am decently happy with it. I have had to change the transmission twice, but luckily my warranty covered it. The AC is going out and it gets AWFUL gas mileage but otherwise is a good car.

  Best vehicle ever owned - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By icetheis - February 21 - 9:46 pm

  This is by far the best vehicle Ive ever owned. Weve had it for 6 yrs. and the repairs weve made are no where near the repairs other vehicles weve owned. Repairs are a little more pricey but thats what you get when you buy a quality vehicle, quality repair work. The gas mileage Im sure is comparable to any other mid-sized SUV. The luxuries are great. Handling is great. Its fun to drive. I cant say enough!

  No Complaints - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By pete1 - February 18 - 2:00 am

  Bought mine used with 52,000. Did brakes and serpentine belt. Had been offroad a fair amount per prior owner. Now have 64,000. Really have had no problems. Have heard the street talk about transmission failures but no problems with mine. Again, I think it matters quite a bit how theyre used (towing/offroad/overheating)and maintained.

  Great suv - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By mdl1989 - February 15 - 2:00 am

  I would have to say that this is the best jeep ever built, I bought it a few years ago with 100,000 miles it currently have over 260,000 miles. It is in great shape minus the only problem I have come across and will complain about is the gas mileage Im glad I did not purchase the V8 version! I cant honestly say the only thing I have ever did to it was the reg services and a thermostat which is common.Other than that a great first car, Now proudly am buying a new Jeep Liberty I hope it holds up as well as my JGC limited , truly is a great car would recommend it to anyone. I am a little weary about the location of the gas tank though. Also it goes great in the snow never been stuck in up to 3fsnow

  Best Ive owned - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Ted Mosher - February 11 - 9:03 pm

  This is undoubtedly the best car I have ever owned. 63000 miles and its never been in the shop, still has the original tires and battery. Never had a breakdown. Uses no oil. Fun to drive and comfortable. Gas mileage could be better for an SUV this size at 17 mpg but the rest makes up for it.

  Loved it - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By seattlegirrlie - January 26 - 9:36 pm

  I was reading other reviews laughing and had to add my own. I LOVED my V8 Limited and wouldnt have given her up for anything. Shes a five star ride, handles like a dream, parks great in the city, goes absolutely anywhere off road, handles snow, ice, mud, fallen trees, and flooding with ease. All the gremlins everyone else had, I had too. Seat motor died, window motor died, had to fix the AC, and the rear tail lights never quite worked no matter what you did. All those little mechanical/electrical issues didnt matter. I bought her at 120K and passed 200K before a drunk driver took her out.

  Poor workmanship - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Rajnesht - December 31 - 2:00 am

  The car has been more at the dealership than my 90 Mazda. Its electricals are extremely poor quality, and you can expect leakages in differentials every 2-6 months.

  Our first Jeep, last Jeep? - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By jackie & christina - December 9 - 10:03 am

  Program car purchased 2002, 36k, haggled dealer down to $15k after much haggling and trade of a 1993 Isuzu trooper (was a great SUV, but very high maintenance costs just like my other SUV Mercedes ml320). Back to the Jeep, where do I begin? Brake issues just like everybody else in warranty issues now out of warranty issues (mechanic tells me due again after 20 months). Problems linkage sticking 4wd transfer case, back many times for repair the usual fix lubricated and claimed all well still sticks today! Very hard to take in and out of 4wd without a hassle! Remember its an SUV cause the mpg (15 around town less than 20 on highway) are tough now at $4.00 a gallon, trading it in today $3500?
