1998 Jeep Cherokee Classic review from North America
"I love this Jeep and would not trade it for anything. It is a real, rugged SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My fog-light switch sometimes does not work.
There is a lot of rattling from the cargo area.
General comments?
I love my Jeep! This vehicle handles exceptionally well for a sport utility vehicle.
It is phenomenally fast and powerful for a six cylinder!
It's classic looks are a real plus.
The Cherokee rides very stiff and bumpy, but most people don't buy a Jeep for a smooth ride.
It is hard for me to find a comfortable seating position, this could be because I do not have the power seat option.
This Jeep guzzles gasoline worse than a Suburban, and it only has six cylinders!
It is unstoppable off-road!
I would love to buy another one if Jeep still made them. It is quite a disappointment that they are discontinued. The Cherokee and the Wrangler were the heart of Jeep.
