Its the only choice our there - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By L. Mazza - December 16 - 9:41 pmPurchased a Trail hack 5.7 L and I am simply in love. This vehicle makes me feel I am in a much more expensive SUV. The ride, comfort and the power is second to none. It is my second Jeep and on the first one never had a single issue and it has almost 80k miles. On this one I feel I am in a complete different vehicle. The V8 power is amazing, the ride is limousine grade. It is quite, it is comfortable and it looks just incredible when compared to all those "SUVs" from the Japanese and the Germans. The design is very attractive. So far I have put close to six thousand miles and I have had zero issues. I plant on keeping my old jeep and my new one. Maintenance is not that expensive and as far as reliability it seems as good or better than the competition. What I am not in love is how easy and lazy the engine works, just a touch to the accelerator and that V8 power sends you moving with ease. I am truly I love with my jeep.

My wife thought I was crazy - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By Zeen - July 5 - 11:45 am2017 Model was tweaked to make it look very up to date both inside and out. Quality of materials is excellent. I previously had a good-handling sedan so am used to a more precise handling vehicle but am getting used to the Jeep. Acceleration is adequate. Its not a racer. Handling is good. The cabin is fairly quiet. The infotainment interface and power ports are much better than what I had on my GM car. Cargo capacity is quite good. Climate controls are easy to use and the heater warms up quite quickly. My wife thinks Im nuts for buying a rugged SUV to commute to a train station but I like the rugged look and cant wait until the first snowfall here in Eastern PA.

IM NOT KIDDING.. 17 JEEP ENGINE SHUTS ITSELF OFF - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By Ron - July 13 - 7:51 amI owned my first grand cherokee for 17 years. When I decided it was time for a new vehicle I looked at all the different 2017 SUVs and cross overs on the market and decided that for me, Jeep was still the way to go. My priorities were, comfort, style, towing capability, storage capacity, and a luxurious interior with great sound (if you get the 600 watt sub woofer option). The jeep came the closest to meeting all of these for under $50k. I took my first 1,500 mile trip last week and was very pleased with all the above mentioned (other than I haven’t towed a trailer yet). HOWEVER..... The 3.6L ESS engine (ESS stands for electronic stop/start) is designed to SHUT OFF EVERY TIME YOU COME TO A COMPLETE STOP LASTING MORE THAN A FEW SECONDS. ). It does start back up when you release the brake but only after a noticeable delay. This is to save a few drops of gas, but think about this the next time you’re inching along in traffic, waiting in line for a hamburger, or wanting to make a quick right hand turn at a red light. Also keep in mind that when your engine shuts off so does the heating and cooling. (the sales guys will try to give you all kinds of BS about this major design screw up and will tell you that you can turn it off, BUT you have to turn it off EVERY time you start your Jeep) Now the GOOD NEWS. there is a solution on the internet that just takes 3 seconds to plug in your maintenance port and allows YOU to decide if and when you ever want to use this extremely annoying feature (I did drive the first 500 miles with the ESS feature enabled and it was very annoying to both me and my wife). I would not of purchased a jeep if I hadn’t of already found a great solution to overcome this design flaw at http://www.smartstopstart.com/ . NOTE: Jeep is not the only manufacturer that uses this dumb stop/start idea so educate yourself before you purchase any car.... 2018 will be even worse. I love just about everything about my new 2017 GC jeep, but would NEVER recommend it to anyone without the smart stop/start module. ($125)

Continued Problems Time after time - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By Brian - May 28 - 6:24 pmAfter discussion with many jeep drivers, I was excited to get into one. I bought the 2016 Grand Cherokee Limited Edition 75th Anniversary Edition. After three times into the dealership for the same issue, we finally settled on it being a lemon. Heres the problem. The CAM sensor doesnt work and at the ignition start sets off your engine light and other issues. There werent parts to fix it and had to wait. Finally was able to get into a 2017-same edition thinking it was just this one. After only owning for one week, back in the shop with the exact same issue. They fixed it by putting in new diffusers. I have been back on the road for less than two weeks, same issue has come up again. Two brand new jeeps and the same issue. They say there arent issues with this edition but seriously, two in less than a year with the exact same issue. I have been patient and trying to work with the dealership on this. I have lost all confidence in the jeep brand. Great to hear that so many individuals out there are having a great experience with the brand. It just must not be for me. Watch out for the 75th edition release.

My all black 2017 Altitude - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee
By Sarge - October 6 - 8:52 amThis is my third Grand Cherokee. And this by far is the best. I am in love with the updates and the comfort and obvious appearance of the Altitude. A few outward mods and I feel it represents me well driving down the street. Everything from turning radius to the feel of the wheel when driving, Stereo system, seat comfort, etc... Heads keep turning and the positive comments keep on coming in. I am a Mopar- Jeep guy at heart and am truly glad I leased another grand Cherokee. The comments about the engine turning off at stops is a bit ridiculous. All you have to do is PUSH a BUTTON to turn that feature off. Cmon. And this V6 is quick. Very quick with a "Sport" mode which I rarely use. How fast do you really want to go in an SUV ? But this one is quicker than my previous two. Plenty of power if you need to avoid someone or something, or pass another vehicle. I Just love this Jeep.
