2001 Jeep Cherokee Limited 4WD from North America - Comments

This Jeep has been a delight to own because nothing has gone wrong with it.

I have noticed that one outside (bolster) panel of the driver's seat is exhibiting an unusual amount of premature wear of the leather. On that part of the seat, the leather seems loose and very wrinkled, when compared to the remainder of the interior which is smooth and taut.

This is a very rare and enjoyable Jeep. One can see a "Sport" or a "Classic" on most every street, but the sighting of a Limited is a rare event. Limiteds are the units with leather interior.

Having never owned a 4-wheel drive before, I am amazed at the prowess of this vehicle in the snow as well as on water soaked roads.

She has no squeaks, rattles, nor air whistles, and is a pleasure to drive.

However, I find the bottom part of the seat to be too short. The seat bottoms need to be extended forward, towards the instrument panel by at least four inches.

The paint quality is almost Mercedes-Like! (Mine is Silver Metallic)!

I noticed the same problem with the leather on the passenger side seat; I thought it was caused by my regular carpool rider. Interesting to hear that it happens to another Jeep.

After looking at the new 2004/05 Chevy Tahoe's, I decided to keep my 2001 as I love almost everything about it; size, ride, features, 4x4 performance, etc. However, it's the small fixes that are starting to bug me; replaced all of the a/c parts (before warranty ended, thank goodness!) and the passenger door regulator. At 38k, the driver's side window regulator goes out. Ouch, what an expensive fix.

No Squeeks or rattles, paint like a Mercedes??? Maybe you have a Mercedes. Don't get me wrong I own a 2001 limited as well and, have not had one single problem, but, lets be realistic, although a blast to drive it is unrefined and sounds like a winning slot machine when one hits a bump. This truck is only jingle free when its off!!! Even when idleing at a red light the 4X4 shifter sounds like a drum role. I still wouldn't trade mine for the world!!! Keep truckin!!!
