1993 Jeep Cherokee Country review from North America
"A reliable small SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cooling system : Serpentine belt, water pump, radiator, all replaced at 279,000 kilometers.
Fuel system : Gas tank, fuel filter, replaced at 282,000 kilometers.
Shock absorbers replaced at 279,000 kilometers.
Front and rear brakes : replaced at 279,000 kilometers.
Cruise Control switch replaced at 282,000 kilometers.
Air Conditioning : Compressor has failed and has yet to be replaced.
General comments?
I bought this SUV from the local Chrysler/Jeep dealership. It had not been treated all that well prior to my ownership. I replaced most of the wearables on the vehicle just to be safe.
I live in the Northwest Territories and we have a 7 month fall, winter, spring season to live through. This SUV has not as yet let me down or failed to start in the most horrendous of weather.
The 4.0 L engine is still ticking over with no oil consumption or loss of power with 178,000 miles on it.
The interior while not as nice as my 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland, is unmarred by any cracks, rips, tears or broken plastic.
I will not trade/sell this SUV as I believe that it will continue to provide good service for many more miles.
