I replaced the water pump, hoses and thermostat at 99,000 miles. It only cost $283!
The only other non-routine repairs were a steering component and the headlight switch.
This is the best car I ever owned and the best money I ever spent; I have owned some much more expensive cars (Audi A6, BMW 3-series, Lincoln Aviator, Saab 9-3) and none (maybe the Aviator) give me as much pleasure as this Cherokee.
Amazing handling with tight steering, strong brakes and crisp suspension.
Engine is very strong!
Excessive wind noise at speed.
Had the same minor problems, pump, switch, hoses, and thermostat, runs strong.
