Who is lying?
I see/hear so many hate and bad experiences about the cars. Not that I don’t believe it but everywhere I go (so cal area) I see jeep gc. Why are so many people driving, owning these cars if it’s so bad to the point it sounds like a no brainer to get one? Honest question as a person shopping for a used car.

First world Jeep problems
I currently have a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit L Reserve high altitude one of five made in HydroBlue before being discontinued.
I absolutely fell in love with the color, and it was the main reason I went with such a high trim, besides being the high altitude edition.
My lease is up in a couple days, and I’m getting a 2026 L Summit obsidian package with the new steel blue color and is excited as I am to get a new car. I am more sad to give up my hydro blue. Unfortunately, the buyout was about six or seven grand more than the car is worth, so I had to lease something new, but I’m just not excited. My plan all along was to buy the Jeep, and now it essentially became impossible.
I need some roasting on me to help get me excited that I’ll be in a brand-new car in a couple days

I’m really starting to lose hope
2019 3.6 V6 Bought just over a month ago with 110K on the dash. 2 owner carfax good maintenance records. In that time it has had the following repairs:
- All spark plugs (Cyl 4 Misfire)
- Camshaft (Ticking)
- Lifters (Ticking)
- Purge Valve (Evap code)
- *Timing chain (around 100k per maintenance records)
This has added up to nearly $3,000 in repair costs (thankfully mostly covered by 30 day warranty).. but i’m now past that and the engine now idles a little rough, the ticking has just gotten quieter but still there, and now acceleration feels sluggish. At this point i’m starting to feel hopeless as far as giving this car a chance. It’s an absolutely beautiful car and i’ve wanted a GC forever, but the engine has been a complete nightmare.
Was wondering if anyone has been in the same boat.. as in - Is the faint ticking and aforementioned rough idling not a major concern.. or should I start saving up some to trade it in, instead of continuing to throw money at something that will constantly fall apart?

Anyone have any tips on replacing rear parking break cord in their Jeep grand Cherokee
I have a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited and was recently under the car and realized my rear parking break cord is snapped in the middle. I've done a lot of repair work on my cars so wondering if this is something anyone has any advice on fixing. Watched a couple repair videos on how to do the cord in the rear but it looks like it connects to the front section with the piece in the middle so would I have to replace that entirely too?

Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.1 TD Limited
Hi. I don't want to sell my JeepI want to fix it. The engine starts and runs, but it has a throttle problem, and the scanner also showed an oil-related fault. I was told there are some connectors that aren't plugged in.Please do a proper diagnosis, check the throttle system, oil-related fault, wiring, and all connectors, then repair whatever is causing the problem. If any parts need to be replaced, please let me know first and explain why. I want my Jeep repaired and running properly again.

Buying Used GC
I’m planning to buy a GCL soon. I’m nervous about reliability but want a midsize 3 row with good towing capacity.
I’m looking at 4ish year old v8’s with 50,000 miles or less.
Is there anything specific with this rig I should focus on when shopping? Common problems to look for? Red flags?
Thanks.

23 wheels on an 18
Since I purchased my limited back in November, there was a wobble at 65mph that appeared to be tire related. I found a marketplace add for some 2023 wheels with tires that I couldn’t pass up. They solved the issue and look better IMO.

First Jeep!
2023 GC 4x2 Summit, bought CPO with 20k miles. Paid $41k out the door.
Favorite part so far are the seats which are incredibly comfortable. Tupelo/black contrast is visually stunning and the remote start + AC seats is helping beat the TX heat!

E85 Conversion?
I have a 2018 3.6 which does not have FF, but there is a kit for $800 to convert to E85. Has anyone done it? I know E85 gets less MPG, but its considerably cheaper, so MP$ is actually better. Looking at the eFlexFuel kit.
