12000 Miles the front brake rotors need replacement. (warranty)
26000 Miles the front brake rotors needed replacement once again, I was told this was common. (warranty)
Around 31000 miles the oxygen sensor failed. (warranty)
57000 Miles rear right axle/wheel bearing failed, also damaging the axle seal causing oil to get all over the brake pads. (out of pocket)
Most recently the transmission has gotten stuck in reverse, after a few minutes of playing with the shifter it went into drive. Have not brought it into the shop yet.
Front brake rotors pulsing again..
When I bought this vehicle I thought I was getting a solid rig, I was sadly mistaken. Off road as well as on road it handles like a dream, a little body roll, but not bad for a SUV of its size. Gets poor mpg for the amount of power (slugish). Nice looks, and comfortable.
Ill never buy another jeep.
Yes the brake problem is common, sorry to hear you have had so many other problems as well. I have a 1999 GC and have had afew problems, I beleave jeep has good designs be needs better quality control. but my next suv will likely be an import.
"Imports" are not always the answer! Jeep products are built better than most of the Imports you speak of. Although, I agree the Jeep Grand Cherokee brake problem should have been resolved with a recall. In my opinion the only import SUV worth considering is a Toyota--if you plan to off road.
