  • My 2004 2 wheel drive - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I purchased my Grand Cherokee Laredo from a local used car place with 145,681 miles on it. The vehicle now has 210,450 miles on it. I still average near 21 mpgs on the highway with it. The inline 6 is a very durable motor, the only items Ive replaced on it was at 175,265 a water pump, tires normal wear, brakes, and all push rods for lift gate, hood, and back glass. The cooling fan went out a few miles back going to replace it soon. Great vehicle. I get 17.5 mpgs in the city.

  • Window regulators - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I had to replace the window regulators in my 2004 Jeep Grand Cher. Laredo once,but guess what,Im going to have to re-place 4 of them again. Ill never buy another Jeep Cherokee and will never recommend them to anyone else. These things cost a lot of money, which I cannot afford.

  • Why am I smilin? - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Im smilin because Ive got the best value ride for the money. This is a great looking vehicle. Im 62" and there is more than enough leg room. Fantastic towing power with the V8. Pulled my 5000# trailer and it didnt break a sweat, even at 65mph. The build quality is very impressive. The doors slam with a solid "thud". Freeway mileage with the V8 not yet broken in is just over 20mpg. Was able to make a deal for $460 under invoice with an additional $5500 in rebates. Also got $990 discount for the V8. If there are any 2004s left out there, grab one. When I saw the 2005 body style change it convinced me to buy an 04. Much classier styling in the 04. Ill always own a Jeep.

  • 2004 Freedom Love those Rock Rails - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This is my first Jeep and I have not had it very long but in that short time I have had it I have enjoyed it more than I have any of the other 4X4s that I have owned. I moved to the Jeep from a P/U and have not missed the P/U at all.

  • Jeep Gr Cherokee - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Although I have had no problems so far with my 2004 jeep, I have concerns in reference to the bad reviews on the Jeep Transmission. My 2004 makes a humming noise when the drive is in reverse and also makes a ticking like noise when putting the vehicle into drive from park. Overall the ride is very smooth and nice pickup.

  • Experience after 1 year - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    The Jeep has been nearly perfect and I put it through a lot of beating. It has towed my 19 boat 15 times this year. Most trips greater than 50 miles. I have 23K on the odometer. Nothing has failed and nothing really needs replacing. I do get the oil changed every 3K and have done all of the scheduled service.

  • Love It! - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Ive had 1994 & 1997 Explorers and 2000 Grand Cherokee. They were all reliable but I love this one the best of all. I will most likely buy it at the end of the lease.

  • Great Jeep - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I test drove many vehicles before deciding on this jeep, and I love it so far. Drove it 325 miles first off to take it home. It has a little more wind resistance then I am use to, but Ill get use to that, and the gas mileage isnt quite as good as my car, but except for those 2 things, I cant say enough good things about my Grand Cherokee

  • **My Jeep** - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Its a great SUV! Great in the snow. I bought the V-8 4.7 liter. It averages 15 mpg. I test drove the V- 6 4.0 liter. I needed the V-8 for my needs. I really didnt want to buy the 2005 with the new body and new motor design, so I got a left over.
