I went in to my purchase of a new 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo (2WD) looking for a 2003, and the dealer just happened to have this one on the lot and wanted to move it quickly. Though I've never driven a Jeep before, I'm happy I bought what I did. ...

Pros: Outstanding vehicle with great service and few needs for replacement parts or servicing required.
Cons: Need a place for my garage door opener.

Pros: Looks, internal volume, 4WD handling, "little features"
Cons: Gas mileage, dashboard storage limited

Since I am 6'7" tall, I don't really get to go car shopping. I get to "try on" cars! My previous car was a Ford Escape - believe it or not, I fit quite well. It was time for my wife to get an updated car, and she liked my Ford Escape so I gave that to ...

Pros: Off road capability, looks, power

Pros: Looks good, roomy
Cons: POORLY BUILT, very unreliable, busy ride, bad on gas to boot

we bought this vehicle thinking that the Jeep Grand Cherokee limited would be our dream. Well its been our nightmare since picking it up in November from Warnock in East Hanover, NJ. We bought an 8 Cylinder Grand Cherokee Limited with all the bells and whistles. This vehicle has been in for transmission problems 3 times, brakes twice already (they had to replace the rotors), replacement of shocks, and front end problems. I cant emphasize enough how much trouble we have had. We now are looking to trade this truck in for something that wont be a headache. My wife and I cant believe how poorly built this truck is. Service fixes one problem and then another arises. Do yourself a favor and pass on this piece of garbage.
