2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport review from North America
"Piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car has had a problem from the first day I picked it up from the dealer. The car shakes out of control when idling or starting. It makes knocking noises and acts as if it will stall.
I leased the Jeep in February and it has already been in the shop for a total of 25 days. The dealer can never duplicate the problem. The check engine light also goes on frequently.
I will never buy another Jeep/Daimler Chrysler vehicle again. I am extremely unhappy with this car.
