2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland review from North America
"High priced, poorly built, unreliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Several loud rattles have developed within the interior.
Brake rotors are warped with only 10,000 miles on it.
When you let off of the accelerator pedal, the transmission clunks loudly. I have not yet taken in for service for this issue.
Seats are prematurely cracking, even though I apply leather conditioner weekly to them.
General comments?
I had a 2000 Grand Cherokee Limited that I bought brand new in 2000. The problems that I experienced are as follows:
Brake rotors warped twice in 20,000 miles.
Brake pads had to be replaced when they turned the rotors.
Gas tank started to leak, a new tank had to be installed.
Rear transfer case leaked three different times. Dealer could not explain the cause.
Drivers side seat heater malfunctioned.
Drivers side power lock malfunctioned.
