1996 Jeep Cherokee Sport review from North America
"A true sport utility that is a great buy for the performance and durability of the car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power steering pump had to be replaced at 100,000 miles. The replacement cost me $45 and I replaced it myself.
General comments?
This is a true sport utility. I want to emphasize the utility of this car. You can haul heavy loads, put your wet dog in it, run through mud and over rocks, and cruise across the country with all your gear in the back. Great for outdoor people with a lot of gear.
The Jeep has tremendous acceleration from 0 to 75 mph.
The Jeep performs great offroad as is unlike most other SUVs.
