Faults:

The gas gage had to be repaired, the back cargo light button was replaced 3 times, and the fog light switch was replaced 3 times. All work was done under warranty. No other problems ever.

I have owned many cars and trucks from Street Rods to Crew Cab Dullies. My daughter just totaled our Jeep, she rolled it complete over and back on its tires. She did not get a scratch. This was the best vehicle I ever owned.

This Jeep is fast, and can handle speeds up to 100 great, was chased on the LA freeway by a nut in a expedition and left him in the dust.I had it up to 100 mph it jammed.

Kind of bumpy, but hey it's a jeep. not a jag.

Faults:

The power windows have given me problems. The driver can control all of the windows with the master switch, however, the passengers cannot control their own windows. I think it is something wrong with the child safety lock switch. Sometimes the fuel reads empty when there is over a half of tank left. This can be corrected by turning the Jeep off and re-starting it. The back seat (4-door) is a little tough to get in and out of. The back doors are pretty small.

Over-all the Jeep Cherokee Sport is great. It has more than enough power (4.0L). It rides like a Jeep (not so great), but so do most other off-road vehicles. And believe me, this is an off-road vehicle. The Cherokee will take you anywhere you want to go. The winters of PA put down some serious snow and ice, but the Jeep keeps on going. I've been to Jeep Jamboree in my stock Jeep Cherokee and it hung tough with all the wranglers. It handles real well. No problem parking at the mall in this SUV. The gas mileage isn't the greatest (about 18 mpg), but still not bad for a 4X4. Other than a few electrical problems, I would say this vehicle is awesome. It lives up to the Jeep name.

Faults:

Have had two clutches, a new transmission put in so far.

Have had many annoying problems such as the driver-side window not rolling up all the way or even rolling down at all (very annoying where in NYC, every road seems to be a toll).

Very poor electrics - radio always going dead, headlights that magically turn off at night and so on. It does have 15,000 hard-earned miles driving in Manhattan as a commercial vehicle, however.

General Comments:

This truck is exactly what it is: a truck. Even with the more "luxurious" redesign in 1997, it rides, handles, and acts like a truck.

It is, however, very poorly made (not just this Jeep, but many other people I know who have Cherokees and Grands also have similar problems), and the dealers, at least in the States, are apathetic.

I like being able being up high and looking down upon the lunatic cab-drivers below, but my next vehicle is definitely going to be Japanese (Mitsubishi Montero Sport).
