Overview & Reviews

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.

  Great Ride! - 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By 1st Time Jeep Owner - September 22 - 10:00 am

  My Jeep has done everything Ive asked of it with only insignificant problems. Was skeptical of Jeep quality at first, and have only driven GM cars in the past. Now a big fan of the Gr. Chreokee. Ive replaced the stab. bar and tire rods at 90K and water pump at 105K. Nothing else has gone wrong and Ive driven this car long, fast and hard. And the heated seats in cold MI weather are great!

  Mostly great things - 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By captain - September 22 - 10:00 am

  Vehicle four wheel drive is great. I keep up with my brother in off-raod situations where he is driving a wrangler. My only issue was an engine problem that needed four trips to fix. As it turned out, they replaced the head. It has been great ever since. As for everybody having the brake problems, as long as it is still under warranty, they should be replaced by the dealer. Jeep came out with a new system for these vehicles to stop the rotor problems. Both a friend of mine and myself took our vehicles back to the Jeep dealership and complained aobut them. They replaced the brake system with out any further questions.

  Awesome truck - 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By JOEY - September 22 - 10:00 am

  I just bought this truck......I was a little aprehensive with the negative relaibility reviews, but with 0% financing and getting the truck for $3200 off sticker, I couldnt pass it up. I compared it to the 4runner, pathfinder and the durango. The cherokee has many more options for the money. The truck rides great and I love it....!!!!!

  this is a great SUV - 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By its a jeep thing - September 17 - 10:00 am

  I have owned the 2001 GC Limited V8 4.7 for over a year and not one problem. If you want good gas mileage, then dont buy an SUV. This car handles great, super pick up in the mountains, and is a very comfortable ride. There is plenty of room in front and back seats. Besides the usual maintenance, it has never been in the shop. It looks great and drives equally as well. I would buy it again.

  HORRIBLE GAS MILEAGE - 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By craig - September 15 - 1:03 am

  Only get around 12 mpg in town with v6, has stalled several times and goes 15 or 20 miles an hour then mysteriously fixed itself, if your bigger than 5,6" its hard to get into. Terrible rear visibility. Worst of all, dont get the cloth seats, there impossible to keep clean, even water stains them. Stereo sounds good though.

  Good vehicle if you can deal with the small things - 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Kevin R - September 14 - 7:52 pm

  Plenty of power with the hemi. Good technology package and plenty of charging points for your devices. Squeaks and rattles are common and dealers are atrocious. Fiat please sell off Jeep line to someone who will do it justice.

  Great Performance, Great Ride - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By Dude1250 - September 13 - 10:00 am

  The editors here have sang this vehicles praises for off-road performance, but said its on the road ride was lacking. I found just the opposite true. The ride and comfort sold me over other makes. Responsive handling and more than enough horsepower. Wife drives it and she feels safe, loves the look and enjoys the creature comforts within. Shes happy...Im happy....

  Best Jeep Grand Cherokee yet hands down!!! - 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  By jeepgirl21 - September 13 - 1:17 am

  Bought my Jeep Grand Cherokee technically last year but less than a year ago. I love this Jeep. Ive had Cherokees before and the inside of this new one definitely takes the cake. So comfortable, and very usable. Im not sure what the last lady was talking about and maybe she just had a bad apple which can happen with any brand but I have never driven anything that was this worry free. I love this Jeep and will drive it anywhere knowing Im fine and wont have issues. I had a BMW before this and had issue after issue and they didnt want to help me out. Not only that the run flats on the BMW were hell to replace. "no cost to owner my butt on the Beemer. Thanks BMW but Ill stick with Jeep!!
