1994 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L Strait 6 from North America
Summary:
A good car, cheap to buy and cheap to maintain
Faults:
Radiator blew, but that was the factory one.
Tires wore out due to alignment.
Tenting has ripped off.
Roof upholstery had all, but fallen off.
Breaks locked easily.
General Comments:
I bought this Jeep for $2400, paid cash. Nothing went wrong for 6 months which astonished me, but after 6 months the radiator blew on me, the tires finally wore out, and the break showed their age.
The car was totaled in an accident caused by the brakes locking and the vehicle sliding into a stopped car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

In my humble opinion, you purchased a true lemon. I own a 94 Sport with a total mileage count of around 180,000+, and it's still going strong, just as it was when purchased in 1995. Yes it's taken a bit of money to keep it on the road, but that didn't happen until recently (last 20k miles) and it was only in the range of two to three hundred dollars. It's had three sets of tires, the set that it had when purchased which were less than fifty percent, a set that lasted from 96' to latter 02' and the set that it currently has. The jeep is now driven daily by and older lady for on highway driving and does great. One in a thousand could be a lemon, mine isn't and I'm looking for another.
