  • No Troubles here! - 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Bought this Jeep last year. Has everything. Paint is great. Engine has 107000 miles now Transfer case is gear driven so it has the typical whine to it. I pull a 2500 lb boat with is and a family of 5 goes as well to the lake...This jeep has no trouble doing its job. You will however pay for the power with fuel economy. 15.9 avg over the last 17000 miles. This includes trips to Vegas from Ca during the summer daytime. Climbs well The Jeep only requires oil changes, tire rotation, and 8 or so grease fittings every 5000 miles or so. As I said no problems mechanically or electrically except for the radio!

    It is a love/hate experience. I love to look at and drive my JGC. I hate to fix it. It will roll over 200k miles next week, and has the same problems as everybody else. So do I recommend you buy an older JGC? If you drive few miles (me - 6000k per year), love to love a car, can pick one up cheap ($3000), and have AAA ... then go for it. Otherwise, buy a Toyota. With the exception of the new 4Runner, they dont drive as well, but knowing you can take a long trip without worrying about it breaking down is an enjoyable experience too. My wifes Subaru fits that bill. Also, I have a Toyota van with 325k miles as a back up. I trust it way more than the Jeep. But I LOVE to drive my JGC!

    I have replaced tires, belts, fluids regularly. The only non-routine expenses have been replacing the air-conditioner and the boot... A very inexpensive vehicle for us.

  • Good Solid SUV - 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I have only had two problems so far with my Jeep. The multi-function switch for the headlights, and the lens for the foglights came off. No problems with air conditioning this summer. Love the handling and the comfort of this vehicle. Dont know the history of it, but it has 110,000 miles on it and doesnt show signs of any tranny problems. It is much more easy to drive than an Explorer, but if the suspected problems show up like everyone says, I may wind up buying something else. Great family car, tows like a dream, good gas mileage for a V8, room for kids and stuff, adults are comfy in the back seat. I really like it.

    This is by far the best SUV of the early to mid 90s. Anyone who has any knowledge of driving excellence would agree. Comparing its performance with the Explorer ( its biggest competitor ) is like comparing a Corvette with a Thunderbird ..... there is no comparison. The Grand Cherokee is a thrill to drive, from its firm suspension ( allowing unbelievable handling for an SUV ) to its very strong V8 ( a highly recommended option ) and to top it off, its sporty looks, this is the SUV to buy. Before I decided on the Jeep, I test drove the Explorer only to find that it handled like a 1976 Country Squire ...... not too impressive.

  • My Jeep Hates me - 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    When I received this car as a gift, it had 140,000 miles on it. I immediately needed to replace the front and back brakes, which cost over 1,000.00. The transmission then went out around 155,000 miles, and the rebuild cost over 2,000.00. Barely over a year later the transmission went out again and had to be repaired, luckily it was still under warranty. I have spent more on this car than it is worth. Its sad because I LOVE the way this car drives, great acceleration with the V8, and it handles very well for a bulky SUV. Now the power steering needs to be replaced at 177,000 miles. We are good about regular service,but this car will nickle and dime you to death if it has high mileage

  • Nine years and going strong - 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Overall, a reliable SUV with no surprises. The car design still looks great after nine years and has held up well. Some rattles around the dashboard and a recent one inside the passenger door - that can all be silenced if I get the time. The body looks great.

  • ITS BEEN GOOD - 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I got my jeep grand cherokee with 114,000 miles. ITs been a great car. Ive had it for several months and ive had little problems. I had to replace the exhuast manefold cuase it cracked, but ive been reading up its a thing that happnes on jeeps so that was about 600 to fix. and it doesnt bother me because i got such a good deal on the jeep. Even at 115,000 miles now its a great truck to drive. 4 wheel drive is the greatest. THe stereo sucks though, so i replaced it.
