    What Owners Say

    Loose interior trim or moldings

    "The front interior dash trim is slowly rolling up on itself. The dealer has no response to why or what to do. It's a slow enough issue I'll probably keep ignoring but it's not a good look."

    Anonymous A., ID (2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6-L V6)

    "We had to have the leather dashboard replaced because the heat caused the leather to pull up off the dash. When this occurs, the WHOLE dashboard has to be replaced. When looking at the replacement dashboard, it was evident that the leather is cut too short and not secured well enough to avoid this same thing from occurring. The repairman said he had replaced these dashboards before and all of them are the same way. (Leather cut too short) We have had the replacement for about 5 years and the heat while sitting out in the sun caused the same problem. When will the manufacturers stop worrying about their own pocketbook and think about the consumer when we pay lots of money for these vehicles and the quality is pathetic. Greed has become the manufacturers soul purpose, not quality anymore. God help us all!"

    Anonymous, TX (2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6-L V6)

    Engine Cooling

    Radiator, cooling fan, water pump, thermostat, antifreeze leaks, overheating.

    What Owners Say

    Overheating

    "One time the engine lights came on and within 1-2 minutes, while I was trying to find a place to pull off, totally shut my engine down while I was driving and I couldn't control it. It was very frightening because I was on a highway. It was towed in but nothing was found wrong. According to the dealer, "it just needed to be reset." A few months later, the Engine lights came on indicating overheating. Each time we had our vehicle towed to the dealer. They would say it was fixed. We would drive it home. Next day, it would overheat. This occurred 3 or 4 times. (They said they replaced all kinds of parts that was causing the issue. So we paid for a lot of parts and labor each time.) Finally it was at the dealership for over a month without resolving the problem and they said the engine was blown. (This would have been due to them test driving it, because it was not blown when initially taken to the dealer.) Said the only way to fix it was to buy a new motor for $11,000-12,000. Dealer did not feel responsible for blowing the engine while in their shop. No other options were offered. While at the dealer, they also destroyed our wood trim inside the vehicle. I was devastated. It was at this point we found out that there were "NO" certified repairmen at this dealership to work on Jeeps or other cars they serviced. We were in desperate need of this car because I was driving to doctor visits and hospital over 100 miles away as my husband was, and did have, major surgery during this time period. We finally had it towed to a repair shop that found us a used motor and had the engine replaced."

    "This car has an AGM battery located under the front passenger seat. It went out on a recent trip. Fortunately I was able to use my AAA plan to jump start it twice before I found a Jeep dealer that had the right battery to replace my failed one. Be aware, this is not a repair the average person can do. Special tool is needed for the battery terminals. And a very awkward battery removal for an average 75 year old."

    Reliability indicates how models have performed in the past, providing the basis for predicting how the vehicles will hold up in the year ahead. These charts provide the most comprehensive reliability information available to consumers. Based on information received from our latest subscriber survey for over 300,000 vehicles, our reliability history charts give you a rundown on how 2000 through 2024 vehicles are holding up in 20 potential trouble spots, ranging from the engine, transmission, electric motor, EV charging, and brakes to power equipment and the electrical accessories. NA indicates that we did not receive a large enough sample size to provide data for a specific year. An X indicates that the vehicle was not manufactured for a specific year.
