Faults:

Both front hub/wheel bearing assemblies.

A resistor that controls the speeds on the heater controls.

One U-Joint.

Replaced an oxygen sensor.

Had my air conditioner recharged.

General Comments:

I have recently had to make some repairs, but I think most vehicles that turn the 100km mark will generally need some repairs.

This is a noisy vehicle and not too refined. (Sort of like me!)

I still love my Jeep. It goes anywhere with ease.

The seats are comfortable and I like the type of ride you get with the Jeep.

Gas mileage is typical. With the new Oxygen sensor I hope it will improve a bit.

Overall I love my Jeep. Great for my Canadian winters. Great heater in it. Always starts well in the cold. Overall a very reliable automobile.

The only complaint I have with it is the noise level. This is a noisy vehicle and this does get on my nerves sometimes.

Faults:

Brake Lights.. Housing assembly printed circuit board in tail light assembly combined with lamp holders defective.

Rear axle seal just discovered leaking.

General Comments:

Very practical. A serious off road contender. High noise factor (road noise) is due to drive train configuration and can lead to some discomfort on long trips. This is the trade off on the four wheel drive versions. Although noisy, mechanically sound and reliable.

I have experienced the dreaded noise on the lock, luckily it was my front passenger side. Yes, I spent the 200.00 to get it fixed. It also caused shorts and drained my battery to the tune of buying two in nine months till we decided to get the door fixed.

I am experiencing the brake light problem, the lights look fine, but after reading the posts here will have to take a better look at the housing. Good Luck Jeepers!!!

Faults:

The control for the passenger window goes out occasionally, although it can always been put down from the driver's side control.

Door pins slowly loosen and if not periodically tightened I am afraid the door would pop off the hinge.

General Comments:

As a driver you sit up high and can see very well from all sides.

Drives smoothly both on the freeway and through gravel and pot holes.

Back seat is not very comfortable for passengers, but when it is laid down there is lots of storage.

Faults:

At over 100,000 Miles in five years, here is what went wrong; Off the lot the steering wheel was not aligned. The passenger side power window does not always work. The low level sensor inside the washer reservoir does not work. The AC compressor and lines have been replaced. The crank shaft position sensor has been replaced. It has recently started to stall while idling. The driver's seat is starting to rip. And someone put the fuel filter INSIDE the gas tank!

General Comments:

I have installed a 4" suspension lift, mud flaps, tow hitch, and auxiliary back up lights. I replaced the factory radio with a CD player and a 12 disk changer. I have a CB hard wired between the sun visors. BF Goodrich AT give me plenty of traction to actually play with my toy off road!

It does have poor gas mileage. (15 MPG)

Faults:

Air conditioner evaporator leaked and had to be replaced. A+ to Lenihan Jeep in NJ for their exceptional service (covered the repair without question).

General Comments:

The Cherokee is a great "local" run-around car. It has great power and is fun to drive. I am disappointed with the excessive noise at speeds above 60mph. At 85+ it's almost deafening (OK, so you shouldn't drive 90 anyway). It just does not seem like a vehicle for the highway. I'm guessing that the noise comes from the front drive shaft vibration. Otherwise it's the perfect size vehicle, built like a tank (in a good way). Accelerates and handles great. A larger than 20 gallon fuel tank would have been nice since MPG is not great (17 mpg).
