Faults:

Vehicle will not shift into high gear. Engine light has been on and the codes show something wrong with a shift sensor.

Driver seat has broken at the track near the driver door side.

General Comments:

I love the Jeep. Been very dependable except for a couple of minor repairs that needed to be done.

Have never had it stuck in the snow, although there were instances that I thought I would get stuck and drove right through it.

Faults:

Numerous problems on gaskets on doors and moon roof. Dealer never really got them right.

A resistor in the climate control unit went. To repair the problem, the dealer had to remove the entire dash. The cost of the repair was over $1000.

Both power steering pump lines went at 36,000 miles. I had to drive the car without power steering to get it to the dealership.

The front driver's side seat heater went out at 30,000 miles.

The turn indicator sticks.

Battery went dead at 30,000 miles.

The alternator went at 38,000 miles.

Other small problems too numerous to mention. This car lives at the dealership.

General Comments:

This has been the most unreliable automobile that I have owned. It ran perfectly, almost, until the warranty expired and since then has been a nightmare.

I have ordered a new Toyota 4Runner and cannot wait until it arrives and I can get rid of this piece of junk. I will never buy another Jeep.

Faults:

Plastic intake manifold.

Bad brakes.

Heated seat not working.

Strange transmission shift.

Leaky seals (driveshaft).

Low quality stereo, expected better from infinity.

General Comments:

The 4.7 HO will blow your head off. Passengers wearing a loose hat will see it fly off when floored!

Keep in mind I owned an '87 Buick Grand National, this truck moves nice.

I complain, but the car has been great with not too many problems.

Gas is bad, but I put regular in.

Faults:

Nothing so far.

General Comments:

Bought the Jeep used as an upgrade from my 97 Chevrolet Blazer.

I loved the Overland edition when it came out in late 2002, and now I could finally afford one.

I cannot say enough good things about the engine. With 265 horsepower and 325 lbs of torque, it's a tailgater's dream! Puny little Civic or Jetta in the way? No problem!

The interior is spacious and comfortable as well, not to mention it's very usuable and durable. I've gone on several trips in it already and loaded all kinds of junk in the back, and it has passed every test so far.

Not surprisingly, the fuel economy stinks like a Banquet on Fear Factor. 13-18 city highway are optimistic figures.

All in all, it's a respectable and classy SUV that will achieve mostly every purpose and, more importantly, it's a Jeep. My only concern was long-term reliability, and we'll have to wait and see about that.
