2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo V8 from North America
Summary:
Considering the number of kms put on the vehicle, the car performs excellently
Faults:
The most common problem we have experienced with this vehicle is vibration in the brakes. We have tried just about everything to solve the problem; even the best brakes seem to warp.
The driver's side head light connection had to be replaced.
The exhaust manifold had a bolt shear off.
The air conditioning system developed a leak.
The rear wind shield wiper arm has lost the cover at the pivot center.
General Comments:
This car has a great deal of electrical equipment; all of these devices function well.
The sound system is wonderful (best I've had).
We live at a lake, and the 4 X 4 system works well at towing even our 4000 lb. boat out of the water where there is no ramp.
In the snow we feel perfectly at ease; it handles deep and slippery conditions well.
Our fuel consumption averages 24 miles per gal. on the highway.
Rough road conditions reflect a bouncy, firm ride inside the car, which is expected for such a vehicle.
The car is a dream to drive for long distances.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

It is not a V6, it is a I6, meaning inline 6.
