1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4.0 litre petrol
Summary:
Generally comfortable off-roader
Faults:
Faulty tick-over at 10,000 miles - took 18 months to fix.
Rear differential noisy at 30,000 miles and needed expensive service.
Seized brake caliper at 50,000 miles.
Over-tightened handbrake caused wheel to overheat at 52000 miles.
General Comments:
Drives and corners well for a 4x4, but obviously a serious off-roader so is not so good on the road - the ride is quite bouncy.
Quite quick generally, and does 20mpg (imperial) overall which I don't think is bad.
I felt badly let down by the servicing - the few problems I had took far too long to fix.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
