2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4.0 liter MPFI from North America
Summary:
A rugged, dependable, and adventurous vehicle!
Faults:
Vibration from the front of the car between 52 and 57 MPH. I have replaced with new parts the: Hub assemblies, differential bearings and seals, axle joints, steering damper, track bar, rotors, brake pads, and tires.
General Comments:
Such a dependable car that will keep on going even with minor problems. Mud, snow, and water are no match for this impressive vehicle.
Rear air shocks are a good upgrade to get rid of that leaf spring sag and adjust for different payloads.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I'm pretty sure that 2001 was the last year for the Jeep Cherokee.

The Jeep Cherokee Sport, last date of manufacture was June 19th, 2001.
I bought mine with 65 miles on it. It was made in May of 2001, so it was close to being some of the last put out. So, yes, they were made in 2001. I got tickled the other day when I saw a "2002" Cherokee for sale. No such animal. Hope this helps.
p.s. I've had all the aforementioned problems. I have 165,600 miles on mine, and hope to go to 300K miles.

I am curious, you say your Jeep Cherokee is 2001, but I believe they stopped making those in 2000. I have a Cherokee Sport 2000, straight in line 6 cylinder, 4.0 liter engine, 4wd, but that was the last year they were made, then they went to the Liberty. Is yours a 2000 model, that you bought in 2001?
