Common and usual, electrical problems., Also low octane pinging. Electrical cured with standard electrical diagnostics (not expensive).. Found out through gas station change that this will go away with using 100% gas and not using gas with possible 10% ethanol..

The only other issue I have is that the vehicle is made by Chrysler,. I have owned other Chrysler/Dodge vehicles, and had have nothing, but problems. You name it it has gone wrong..

I am looking for another one of these at a good price, because I have had so few problems with this one. The only major component I had to replace is the power steering pump, which was less than 50 bucks. This thing runs as strong now as when I got it. Replaced a few belts, couple batteries, 3 exhaust systems (rust belt state) and fluids and tune ups. I use Amsoil and go 20,000 miles between oil changes. I have had other cars and I realized how much I wasn't working on the Cherokee. I am looking for another one for me, and another one yet for my son. Unfortunately, I am loosing this one in my divorce!

General Comments:

Runs excellent, never left anyone stranded, handles like a go-cart. I should have bought another one years ago. If I had to complain about anything, I would say some of the body lines hold water, which promotes rust. (Corners by the windshield, and lips under the doors.) Bullet proof drive train. Easy to work on.

The not so fantastic gas mileage is off set by the not so frequent, and inexpensive repairs.

Faults:

Funky tail lights; there seems to a short in the tail lights, so only the passenger sides work.

PVC valve was causing about 14-18 mpg; I replaced it and now it's getting 20 mpg.

Also gas gauge acts up whenever I get the undercarriage wet.

Dash lights have acted up twice, but again after getting the undercarriage wet from going through creeks.

General Comments:

It has some quirks, but overall a great SUV.

Very comfy ride, and will go anywhere you want it to go. Just when I thought I was going to be stuck or stranded because of some bad areas I ventured into, I have always gotten out of it, and made it look easy in the process.

Although I admit for its weight and its engine size, it's not good on gas, but for what I use it for, I can't complain too much.

Faults:

Rear cargo latch will not open.

Driver door latch snapped off.

General Comments:

This vehicle has been nothing but reliable.

The engine is without a doubt the best around, and the Cherokee makes the Liberty look like a little scared kid in a playground.

My best friend recently purchased a new Liberty and he couldn't stop bragging, because on paper the 3.7L V6 has more torque and horsepower than the Cherokee, but made him take a double take as I blew by him and watched him in my rear view mirror. Not to mention the ground clearance comparison.

The Liberty is nothing more than Jeep's version of the Honda CRV. I hate when people say the Liberty is a remodelled Cherokee. The truth is they stopped making the true Jeeps and concentrated on cars with 4 wheel drive.

Cherokee's rule!!!

My Jeep has been rolled wheels to wheels & then rebuilt by a business that didn't know what they were doing. I have a bit of a problem with overheating, but not bad. My first Jeep I put 200,000 on it & gave it to my son & he drove it till he sold it & the engine blew 6 weeks later. He can't wait till I give him my 1998.

General Comments:

I plan on getting 200,000+ out of it. I will never be without a Jeep, you can't beat them. Drive them till the doors and wheels fall off & get new ones & keep going. The engine has never missed a lick & it has taken me every where I have wanted to go & I mean every where. People that have rode in my Jeep can't believe the places I have taken them even off road. It is a blast to drive, it will go any where.
