The old Explorer pissed me off that in 4 low tires would spin that were in the air and no traction to the tires on the ground. All in all the cherokee handles well and has good power.

Remedy Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the final drive controller which governs the transfer case, with new software, free of charge. Never even heard it grab a lower gear when going up hills. Mileage from the diesel 18 mpg city, 23 mpg highway is roughly 30 percent better than the gasoline V-6. The gear changes from the five-speed automatic are smooth, and once on the highway, the transmission rarely needs to downshift because the engine produces so much torque. I tow frequently and this vehicle never has to downshift on passes. The car arrived and I've been driving it every day to check out all systems.
The inherent economy of these lean-running machines--and the intriguing solutions engineers are developing to deal with the emissions woes that lean-running compression ignition brings--captivate me.

Yes Review Date: 12th January, 2009 It is not unusual for the tire pressure warning lights to come on in the winter, especially in the morning after a temperature drop.

The Grand Cherokee offers excellent off-road capabilities and a better-equipped, more refined interior than the previous model -- but still can't match the rear-seat comfort or cargo capacity of others in its class. The ride is harder then I like, but not bad. The selections begin with a 210-horsepower 3. They probably would have looked at used cars because who would think you could get a new 200 for that price. That's enough to cross most vehicles off my list right there.
Can't access any voice commands for bluetooh, radio control, etc. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Her family is growing and she needs more room.
