  • I HAVE BEEN SICK OF THIS THING! - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Nothing but TROUBLE since day one! In our 4th set of rotors. Fuel pump replaced a couple of times. New radiator this year. Spent over $3k in repairs in 03 and over $1k so far in 04. At 100k miles, things started falling apart with this piece of junk. Rear end overhauled and left rear bearing replaced 3 times. Constant wind noise on right side from 2nd month-vibrating weather stripping- "Cant replicate" says Mr. Dealer- cant fix what they cant hear!......

  • Poor Quality throughout the vehicle - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I am telling myself NEVER, NEVER again buy a Jeep vehicle. Over $4,000 in repair costs in just over 2 years. Leaks in hoses, blown water pumps, power windows completely failed & had to replace, many electrical & mechanical malfunctions & defects, defective sensors, major transmission & engine problems....etc. Dont forget to consider the extremely poor resale values due to Jeeps reputation for poor quality & reliability. Ive concluded it would have been more inexpensive to have bought a BMW or Mercedes sports car than the Jeep...at least those have high resale values.

  • Big Mistake - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Im embarrassed to drive my jeep. Its parked in my garage. The brakes squeek so loud you could hear me a mile away. Ive had the brakes fixed over 4 times and still the same problem. I cant get rid of it because I owe more than what its worth... It was a mistake to have purchased this car! I thought I had a lemon, but after reading everyones review I see that the 99 Grand Cherokee is a lemon in itself...

  • The Most INCAPABLE Sport Utility ever - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Unless you have money and time to waste I would not recommend this vehicle to anyone. Besides numerous recalls this vehicle (or at least mine)is plagued with tons of failures ranging from window mechanism failures to complete engine failures. If you are in the market for an SUV go look somewhere else.

  • Biggest Mistake Ive Ever Made - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This had to be my worst car buying experience ever! Bought brand new and had nothing but trouble from the day I drove it off the lot. In and out of the shop. And dont believe their warranty lies either... read the fine print! The hood was not aligned correctly to begin with. After a couple thousand miles the brakes needed replacing and had to be replaced every 2 to 3 thousand miles. Transmission was a mess too. Resale value was the worst ever. Finally dumped this piece of junk. Dont ever buy a jeep... youll REGRET IT!!!!!

  • I wouldnt wish a jeep on my worst enemy - 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    v8 quad drive, every option. Purdy to some, BUT.... Terrible car. "wallows" down the highway like a fat pig. quad drive groans when wheels turned hard, fan roars when cold, front rotors warp at 11k miles, heated seats broke twice. Jeep sales are a trestimny only to good advertising spin. Jeep is living in the past.
