2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo review from South Africa
"A good looking car with excellent off-road performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Coolant level needs to be above max, or the warning light comes on.
Rear differential oil seal leak at 50K.
Rear electric windows faulty in 2nd year, replaced under warranty.
General comments?
Great car, superb off-road capability, excellent engine if you develop turbo-diesel driving technique.
Economical 11 Litres / 100 km average.
