Jeep Grand Cherokee (2011 - 2021) Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Its a great looking and driving vehicle. I wish they made the third row in this model. However I always feel like the center of attention when driving a jeep that has that sleek, classic, luxury feel and vibe but also can be rugged and tough, and able to run with boss hogs whether on a trail or the open road. Its great for travel and great for inclement weather. What other car does what the Jeep Grand Cherokee does then or now? Not a one. Because Jeep is a stand alone Grand type of ride!Dec 09, 2024

I originally had the 2015 Grand Cherokee Limited with the Pentastar V6. It had the Alpine 9 Speaker System and some other goodies like heated/vented sets and the panoramic sunroof as well. I really like that Jeep alot! But I was hit in the rear corner of the vehicle by someone who just had to beat the light on a right turn and my vehicle sustained quite a bit of damage, while his crappy old 1998 Ford F-150 with the old Steel/Chrome bumper didnt have a scratch. The Jeep never drove the same after. Dog-tracking and vibrating at speeds over 60 mph. Anyway, after a couple months of that, I decided I had enough and started looking at upgrading. Prices were very high, and still are considering trade-in values have plummeted recently, along with high interest rates. But I digress. I found a decent deal on the Grand Cherokee Overland with the Harman Kardon System and V8. White. 30,000 miles. My Limited had the same mileage and I got a good trade value even with the accident (I take supreme care of my vehicles) and off I went. Comparing the two, all I can say is that if you have the opportunity, the V8 Hemi, HK Audio System and Air Suspension are all absoulutely FANTASTIC upgrades. Expensive? Yes. Worth it? Hell YES! I cant see going back to a V6 now. Once youve had that 360 Horsepower at your disposal, its game on. Everything else is standard Jeep/Chrysler/Dodge. Beware the dreaded touch-screen delamination issue. This isnt a one-off. Its a well known issue on Jeep forums and probably Dodge forums I would suspect, where a layer of the capacitive touch screen starts to peel away from another layer of the screen within the display. You can see it, but cannot feel it. It typically runs along the top of the display, many times hitting the clock button. This causes a non-stop beeping and pop-up asking if you want to set the clock. You can press no, but it keeps popping up. Eventually, it will pop-up and close on its own non-stop rendering the display and everything that is controlled within the display (climate, GPS, Audio, and more) unavailable and in a run-away state. There is no fix and Chrysler is refusing to acknowledge it as a factory defect, only repairing it if the vehicle is within the 3 years original warranty. Oddly enough, the failure happens almost exclusively soon after the warranty expires. The fix cost anywhere from $1200 - $2000. So all I can say is buyer beware. Its my only issue with the vehicle. But it is a big one. Feb 04, 2023

I am currently buying my second Grand Cherokee, it’s a fantastic vehicle! Only sold my first one because I moved to Chicago and had no need for a vehicle. It drives great, very quiet road noise, and super comfortable. Both of my GC’s are the Altitude trim and the suede and leather combo is so nice. I also love the infotainment system, great layout, simple and everything is sturdy. Nothing feels cheap in this vehicle!Apr 12, 2021
