2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee review from North America
"JUNK. My car anyway"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hi, I am currently going through a divorce. My husband sold my GMC Suburban and came home with this little gem for me from here on out. I have had this Jeep for 24 months. It is a Grand Cherokee. It has about 92,000 miles so far.
From day one I have had this Jeep I have experienced my worst nightmare.
I have had to replace brakes front and back, the entire air/heat system, major leaks everywhere, the radiator, the head gasket, battery, and NOW tomorrow, I am off to the transmission place for a nice hefty bill again.
The one thing I have not had problems with so far is the power locks, windows and light (tail) problem. I am sure that will come in April.
These cars are a huge expense. Not so easy to get rid of either. Everytime you think you are OK, and you'll continue on with it, something else goes wrong. By the time tomorrow comes with the transmission (it leaks a lot, gear sliding, and smells) I will have put over 4000.00 into this car, and it still finds something else to go wrong. I agree, do not purchase these cars. There are so many out there on the road, it amazes me they are still able to sell and make these cars.
I am just a single mom, and this car is way too expensive for me anymore.
