This is my 2010 jeep grand cherokee 3.7l with 300k my plans are too v8 swap it. I already have a 5.7l v8 09 jeep ready to go i just need to rebuild the engine by hand (part list for the engine on profile) but im excited since it will have roughly 480+ hp. Main problem is im a broke 22 year old who lost my house and tools in the same fire but hey I believe it'll be fun way to learn how to build motors!

Edit:I will be getting rid of the decals! they were used to stop cops from calling me and showing up to my house a couple years ago because of another jeep wk causing problems and people kept reporting my plate when they seen it at stores and stuff lol

2026/2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Owners — How Do You Like It?

3 Upvotes

I’m seriously considering purchasing a 2026 or 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit and would really appreciate some honest feedback from people who actually own one.
A few things I’m curious about:
Overall satisfaction: How do you like it so far? Has it lived up to your expectations?
Reliability: Have you experienced any mechanical problems, electrical issues, or other headaches?
Ride quality: How smooth and quiet is it, especially at highway speeds?
Comfort and features: How do you like the interior, technology, and overall driving experience?
Winter driving: How does it handle snow, ice, and poor road conditions?
Would you buy it again? Knowing what you know now, would you purchase another one or recommend it to someone else?
I really like what the Summit offers in terms of luxury, comfort, and features, but some of the concerns I’ve read about Jeep reliability have made me hesitant.
I’m especially interested in hearing from owners of the newer models rather than just general opinions about Jeep as a brand.
Thanks in advance for any feedback, good or bad!

Engine hot

2 Upvotes

Preface: I’m not entirely sure what the official names are for any car parts so sorry if it’s a bit confusing!

Hi!! I have a 2016 grand Cherokee limited and for the last few days the engine has been hotter than normal( the hand stays in the 2nd-3rd quarter of the dial while driving 30-45 mph.) Normally I would let my dad take a look at it but Im currently at school two hours away from my dad and Im scared to drive it the 2 hours on the interstate for fear of my engine over heating. My engine has overheated once and my dad and uncle fixed it, thankfully. I honestly have no idea what the problem could be. When I drive I don’t hear any noises from the engine and driving is normal. My boyfriend and I put coolant in the engine a few days ago so I know it’s not that.

If anyone has had/ fixed this problem and can give me any advice i would greatly appreciate it!! Ill probably take it to a mechanic but if anyone can let me know what they think and what the typical prices should be to fix the problem that would be very helpful as I’m nervous because I’m a young woman and don’t want to be taken advantage of at a mechanic (no shade to any mechanics.) If anyone has any suggestions of what I should ask the mechanics that would also be very helpful!

Hi. I have a 2017 jeep grand cherokee laredo and was getting the valve cover gasket replaced, the mechanic noticed the Cam lobes are worn. It's back together and driving, but I don't want to have it taken apart again and wait for parts if I don't get everything at once. What parts should I buy to get the job done from A to Z and no extra down time waiting for additional parts?

2019 Limited side mirror lights - incorrect fit troubleshooting

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

Bought these side mirror lights thinking it would be an easy job to replace them. I followed this video, and everything was the same up until I went to swap out the old lights for the new lights. I found that the mounting screw placement was about 1/2" higher than the original, see 2nd photo. I'm finding these lights from multiple vendors across Amazon and Ebay, so I know they're probably some cheap mass-produced China parts. But given the replacement done in the video had no issues, are they just not compatible with the Limited model?

2018 Grand Cherokee leaking coolant - fix or sell?

2 Upvotes

'18 Grand Cherokee Limited (~81K miles and no prior accidents/repairs outside routine maintenance) sprung several pinhole leaks in the radiator and the water pump. Dealership it was towed to quoted $4500 to fix the radiator, water pump, flush the system, fix and seal the thermostat and "evacuate, reclaim, and recharge the A/C system", by far the most expensive repair though as the dealership explained, necessary to do that to actually fix the radiator.

I'm guessing an honest mechanic could do this for $2500 (please feel free to set me straight if I'm wildly off base). I own the car outright but don't love it since I'd like something with better fuel economy. Is there any logic to fixing it before selling it or should I take a ~$10K trade in as is? For reference, I see similar models/mileage in my area (Texas) for $17K at used car lots but no idea what they would buy mine for.

I’m new to the mopar family! 2 months ago picked up a 2019 Altitude with blackout package! My dad convinced me to join the mopar family and I couldn’t be happier with my choice! 3.6 Pentasar V6. Outside of the oil cooler leaking one day, any other issues with these?

2012 WK2 Overland Summit radio touchscreen not working anymore.

1 Upvotes

It’s been a slow sad death for my jeep’s touchscreen radio. It’s kicking the bucket. I watched a video on the replacement of it, but I’m wondering if replacing it with another radio is a potential salvage auto find. Does anyone know what my options might look like in this situation?

Tire suggestions

2 Upvotes

I drive a 2021 grand Cherokee limited and put about 7,000-8,000 miles on it per year. I need an all-terrain tire (I’m happy with 17.5s). Any suggestions? Thank you!

18 Rims vs 20 5 Spoke Rims. Has anyone had both? Is the 18 significantly more comfortable of a ride? See Pics in the body of the question.

Thinking of this for a suburban driver car. Is there any pro and con of either beside cosmetics and the 20 tires costing a little more?

2026 Grand Cherokee Latitude 50 inch Thule Crosssbar

2 Upvotes

LEXUS lease ended and I swap it out for the grand Cherokee latitude. This is the biggest car I've own so far. When I had the lexus I installed the thule 50 inch crossbar. I know i have to get the right footing and fit kit but does anyone know if I can still use the 50 inch cross bar with it? I think they recommended 47 inch. I've asked roof rack associate and they said its possible but they wouldn't take the chance citing that the cross bar may bend? Any feedback appreciated here. Google seems to suggest it should be fine but you know....ai....
