General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

I bought this vehicle brand new straight from the dealers show room its been seven months now and done only 4500 miles but I had to take it twice to the dealer for coolant leakage and water pump issues. |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 360-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
As I said this is our fourth Jeep and one must be prepared for poor reliability. Chrysler does not seem to be able to build a reliable vehicle. I don't know if it is poor quality control, poor parts supplier, poor training of assembly line workers |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 360-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
Already in for major repair with only 500 miles on it |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
too early to tell but reports are poor |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 230-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
The Grand Cherokee has had very bad electical problems. It seems that you can either get a really good one, or a really bad one. |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed automatic AWD w/low range |
Very poor reliability. Known failures of heater blower doors, window regulators, brake systems. Failures usually out of warranty. Same poor designs carried over from 2001 to 2004. |
| 2000 | 4dr SUV 195-horsepower 4.0L I6 w/DoD 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
Lots of problems with the front differential and axle on the Selec-Trac 4x4 |
