  The Best of the Worst - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By dfranzen - May 20 - 10:00 am

  This vehicle has been in the shop more than 30 times in the 3+ years that I have owned it (not one accident). I had a Toyota 4-Runner for more than 10 years that was in the shop only 3 times! I have written Chrysler, but after the first phone call conversation, I guess they felt they had done enough, no further contact. Some of the problem areas: A/C - completely replaced, Brakes, Drive Tran, Electrical - enough? It is too bad that a vehicle that cost more than $35,000 cant make it through a year without going into the shop more than a 1/2 dozen times! I would expect that from oh maybe Isuzu...

  Solved the Brake Problem - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By JHL - May 12 - 6:00 pm

  After having this vehicle to the dealer for warped rotors at least 3 times and to other mechanics twice thereafter, I bought a custom set of drilled and slotted rotors at 60k miles, now I have 130k miles on it and have not had a problem. Daimler Chrysler was "no" help at all and refused to acknowledge that they have a problem with these rotors. I traded a 1995 GMC Jimmy which was total junk for this and it has turned out to be better junk thats more comfortable. Ive owned this vehicle since new, I do not intend to ever buy another car by Daimler Chrysler.

  Impressed - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Jeepinkansas - April 24 - 10:00 am

  Have had very few problems in the past 1000 miles of ownership. Better than an RX300 by far. They have a "ghost bump" in the driveshaft in this year but that has been rectified through a Tech Bulletin I will have done as well as many of the other complaints here. Do your homework and your problems will be fixed. Mine a 10/98 build and beside the ghost bump and a leaky rear hatch window I have NO problems. Dealer himself replaced a bad window regulator also. Just like everything else theres good ones and bad ones.

  The Most INCAPABLE Sport Utility ever - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Edgar Gonesh - February 3 - 10:00 am

  Unless you have money and time to waste I would not recommend this vehicle to anyone. Besides numerous recalls this vehicle (or at least mine)is plagued with tons of failures ranging from window mechanism failures to complete engine failures. If you are in the market for an SUV go look somewhere else.

  3rd Jeep is a charm - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By bobca - January 16 - 2:00 am

  This is my 3rd Jeep, and it is the best Jeep yet. I owned an original Cherokee for 7 years....great vehicle....and a 1995 Grand Cherokee.....very bad vehicle. On return from living in Asia I bought the current Jep, and have not had any problems after 4 years of use. Acceleration is excellent, 4WD is fabulous, everything is tight & precise.

  We Have Been Very Pleased - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Houston Steve - January 11 - 10:00 am

  We have had no major repairs or problems with this vehicle and found it had plenty of storage and elbow room. The factory CD-Changer and speakers did quit working, which I learned is a common problem.

  120,000 Miles, No Problems! - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By jeep lover - January 11 - 2:56 am

  I bought this Jeep new, and after 120,000 miles, I have done nothing other than the ordinary tuneups and brakes. Have the big V8 and still get 19-20 highway. Use it everywhere and mild offroad. Seems bullet-proof!

  Best vehicle around - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By ptv99jgc - January 6 - 10:00 am

  I have had my Jeep for a few years now. In the beginning it had a couple simple problems that were quickly fixd under warranty. Mechanics of vehicle seem are designed with the do-it- yourselfer in mind. I perform all maintenance myself and my Jeep has never let me down. Routine maintenance is the key. I am presently approaching 70K and it runs as good or better than new. Jeep is perfect if you need one vehicle to get you to the office every day, go camping and bring all your stuff with you. You can also tow your favorite toys with you. I could go on forever, but I will summarize, Best do it all vehicle you can get.
