2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited review from North America
"Except for the brake pads - no problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I'd love to tell you how many problems I've had with this 2001 Grand Cherokee Limited - but we've only had 2 - so far. Replaced the fuel pump at 47K, and we're experiencing the same brake rotor problem apparently everyone is having. We replaced the rotors and calipers at 48K and apparently now, at 61K, we got to replace the rotors once again. This time, however, we've decided to take it to an independent for some after-market rotors to hopefully alleviate future replacements.
General comments?
The 2001 is the most comfortable vehicle either of us have ever driven. It glides down the road. If given the opportunity, I'd buy another one exactly like it!
We also own a 2000 Cherokee (36K) and a 1994 Grand Cherokee (244K). No complaints about either of those. The 94 has given us years of stress free driving with only regular maintenance required. I'm expecting to get at least 300K out of that one. Even the body has held up wonderfully!!!
