1996 Jeep Cherokee Sport review from North America
"Great bargain in looks and performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My drive shaft fell off at 165,300 miles.
Water Pump started to go bad.
Rear joint bearings started going bad at 175,300 miles.
Do not drive this vehicle like it is a sports car, it is not and by doing so, you will ruin it.
General comments?
Many modifications that can be done.
Very nice vehicle for the younger group.
Very off road worthy no matter what.
0-60 time is kind of slow, but it is not to be used for racing.
