Guys, I have had issue over issue with this model.

Guys, I have had issue over issue with this model. DO NOT BUY A JEEP CHEROKEE. I have put in $thousands in repairs since I bought the vehicle in 2019. Bought the vehicle lightly used - 33k miles - for ~$22k; willing to bet I’ve spent nearly that twice on maintaining this hunk of junk. I’ve had 2 other vehicles before this one. The Jeep Cherokee is the biggest cash suck you’ll ever waste $ on. It’s not cheque. It’s a waste of $. Take my experience and consider any other vehicle before this one.

My Dream Car Come True!

Was at dealership shopping and this new Jeep Cherokee Lattitude came in on transport. Wanted it the minute I saw it. Jeep dealership had ordered it custom with every option I wanted. Blackout package, V6 a true dual exhaust, sport, power everthing, 4x4 etc. The 4x4 is excellent and never failed me! Its been flawless, aftermarket tuning has turned it into a screaming black speed machine. 112,000 miles so far. No issues with anything! Would buy another if they still made this Cherokee Latitude Special! One very satisfied customer!!!

Good Used Cherokee Everybody seems to like it.

I have just bought this used Cherokee. 70,000 miles I Like it a lot so far. Except I am having a little trouble with my blind spots. Not used to being so low compared to my Ranger Truck. I have a good upgrade. Pretty good milage. Everybody says I got a good deal and so far so good. Drives very nice.

Very nice jeep

I have had mine for 7 years full time business , now has 118k miles on it.. and paid off. it has worked great and still operating. I got the service contract and the dealer has been great, exceeded the expectations in all areas. All the dealers I spoken with have been very supportive. Well worth having this jeep. I would buy one again.

Nice Ride

About a month, so far so good. Bought warranty. The interior is NICE and honestly I fell in love with it on the first drive. Drives REALLY NICE. Has a lot of options that cost a lot of $$ on other brands. Feel like it’s a solid vehicle. Coming from VW it seems like you get A LOT for your money.

Piece Of C - don't buy.

Seat sits sideways and kills my back on long drives. Was made in Canada and didn't find out until after I bought it. No warranty. 4WD service light came on 2 months after I bought it. Have had to replace heater blower, O2 sensor, $600+ tune-up, still not driving good. Still get "service 4WD light" on off and on, when going up mountains, it chugs and acts like it's going to die (we're only talking 5000-6000 feet elevation), and coming down it just revs it's way down the hills, not paying attention to the brake at all. Turn a corner and it slows down and accelerates when it decides to. Didn't install a hard cover license plate cover, had to drill screws up front. xxx. Will NEVER buy a Jeep again in this lifetime.
