1998 Jeep Cherokee Limited review from North America
"Escape from city life in this!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Funky tail lights; there seems to a short in the tail lights, so only the passenger sides work.
PVC valve was causing about 14-18 mpg; I replaced it and now it's getting 20 mpg.
Also gas gauge acts up whenever I get the undercarriage wet.
Dash lights have acted up twice, but again after getting the undercarriage wet from going through creeks.
General comments?
It has some quirks, but overall a great SUV.
Very comfy ride, and will go anywhere you want it to go. Just when I thought I was going to be stuck or stranded because of some bad areas I ventured into, I have always gotten out of it, and made it look easy in the process.
Although I admit for its weight and its engine size, it's not good on gas, but for what I use it for, I can't complain too much.
