There have been absolutely no problems with the Jeep. The only thing I've done is take it in for regular scheduled maintenance and changed the oil every 3,000 miles. I also changed the tires as they were old.
-I love my Jeep. Definitely one of the best vehicles ever designed (and by my favorite company AMC).
-The 4.0 is robust, powerful and has a good lineage.
-The Jeep rides a bit rough, but it's not wearing or unbearable.
-The Cherokee is surprisingly powerful, easily cruising at 80+ up steep grades with no problem. The acceleration is also very snappy and it has bested many suprised sport compact drivers at stoplights.
-The Jeep is also very competent off road. It's gone through everything I've thrown at it without fuss.
Just so you know Chrysler Corp built your Jeep better than AMC.
Built, yes, but the previous post was directed at the design, which amazingly, was executed at the late and lamented AMC.
