Faults:

My water-pump went out, but was not a big repair.

I also replaced all cooling hoses and the belt while replacing the pump. (Just to be on the safe side)

General Comments:

Very quick acceleration and good as far as reliability.

Not noticeably top heavy while corning.

Fairly good gas mileage.

Unbleaveable performance on snow and ice with normal highway tires. Great 4 wheel drive system, quickly locks into and out of 4 wheel drive. The best I've every seen.

Faults:

During the ownership of this Jeep the only problem I had was the Transfer case. It was replaced at 175,000.

Very weak paint job. Starting to tarnish.

General Comments:

Engine,4.0 is very peppy.

Interior is very comfortable. I enter and exit at least 20 times per day and the covers are holding up well.

Sound system is nothing great, but OK for a Jeep'

Faults:

Folding rear seat rattles when in upright position, making squeaking noise.

The window seal on the drivers side door has small space that allows water inside of the door. This was not fun in the winter time when the door would not shut because the linkage was frozen.

The drivers side door fell off! This has actually happened twice to me now. I talked to the dealer and they said it is common on the Cherokee and the new models,2001+, have fixed this problem. I just keep having to pay $45 a hinge until I get rid of it.

The windshield leaks water inside the vehicle sometimes.

General Comments:

This vehicle has been really good to me overall. The performance is lacking a little because of the 2.5L, but besides that, it starts everyday.

The only real worry I have with every buying one again is the door falling off thing. The door fell off my 1993 Cherokee and now this one.

Faults:

You name it, it broke... Electrical, rear end steering..

General Comments:

Nightmare from the start, worst service I've ever had from any dealership, I mean I thought Ford was bad but these people had Ford beat, now that's BAD! This Jeep had so many problems I was considering contacting the Chrysler corp. and having this thing declared a lemon. Luckily I traded it off for a Sportage, considering I've heard so many bad things about Kia.. Ive not had a problem yet with mine. The first year into my Cherokee I was already 1500 dollars in it!
