Faults:

The MPG on this car sucks. Rubber molding around front doors not fitted properly (wind noise). Engine leaks after 25,000 miles (oil pan and valve cover gasket). Plastic cover for headlamps (easily scratched and freeway dings) deteriorate after 10,000 miles. Automatic window on passenger side stop working after 60,000 miles. Automatic door lock for the back door stopped working after 2 years. The hood will not stay open after 2 years. We maintain this car regularly, but still hears like rocker noise when cold.

General Comments:

Dependable, but miles per gallon sucks big time.

Heater coil in driver's seat went out at 40000 miles.

Battery replaced at 46500 miles.

Driver's window regulator replaced.

Passenger's window regulator replaced.

Cold air comes in on the passenger side floor.

General Comments:

The vehicle is very expensive to maintain and gets poor gas mileage.

The 4 wheel drive makes terrible rubbing noises when making the slightest of turns and when in reverse.

The problems and expense after 18 months of ownership have outweighed the comfort, power and reliability in inclement weather. I am getting rid of the Jeep before I have to sink any more money into it and will not purchase or recommend another Jeep.

The extended warranty I purchased has not covered any of the items that have gone wrong, which with the exception of the gas cap have been $250 and more with each occurence.

Faults:

*I have had to replace the E-Vap line because it was leaking gas fumes and would cause all sorts of lights to come on inside the car.

*I had to replace some sort of electrical system because the car wouldn't register that all of the doors were closed and all the lights would come on inside the car.

*I had to replace the back window on the driver's side because it fell in one day when I shut the door.

*I had to replace the driver's window because it also fell in one day when I let the window up.

*I had to have the gear shifter fixed because it wouldn't register that the car was in park and wouldn't let me remove my key from the ignition.

*I had to replace the back cup holder because there was a screw inside of the middle console that cracked the back cup holder the first time it was pulled out.

*I had to have the lights on the seat heater switches replaced because they both went out.

General Comments:

DO NOT BUY A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE! It is the biggest piece of junk that you can buy! I would have been better walking! I honestly could have a Porsche by now with all of the money that I've had to put into my Jeep Grand Cherokee. I had read bad reviews, but also had read good ones so I thought, "it's just a few that are bad, it won't happen to me." Boy, was I wrong!

It has been one thing after another with this SUV and it never stops! I am a teenage girl who got this car brand new in 2002 and I am not rough with this car whatsoever. It is ridiculous how much money that has had to be put into my Jeep Grand Cherokee. If you buy this car, it is the worst investment that you could EVER make! Also not to mention, the Jeep service departments aren't willing to help you at all and could care less if they see you every other week to have something fixed!
