2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo review from North America
"Looks great, but.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Where to start!
The drivers heated seat took 3 months to repair, all badging needed to be replaced because of peeling, rotors replaced just this week, rear wiper arm cracked and broke... all replaced at no charge, but a very big waste of time. While my Jeep was in being repaired for the wiper arm the snapper head doing the work spilled oil down the back lift gate staining the lift gate handle and bumper. This all was replaced at no charge. While the were replacing the damaged oil stains they scratched the rear bumper. Being the Laredo there is no paint... now the entire bumper had to be replaced. I wash my cars when they are dirty, (twice a week min.) When I traded my Jimmy they drove it right to the sales row. It was mint, they should know better by now!
General comments?
Purchase high performance rotors and pads when warranty runs out.
