1987 Jeep Cherokee Laredo review from North America
"A very reliable and durable vehicle although it has the gas mileage of a small V8"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust manifold cracked at 180,000 kilometres.
Replaced alternator at 220,000.
General comments?
Very reliable and easy to work on vehicle.
Not the most cabin room, but very functional.
Handles excellently and has plenty of torque.
