2001 Jeep/cherokee Classic/limited/4.0l I6 Fi on 2040-cars
Raleigh, North Carolina, United States

Rare find! This is an excellent, original low mileage Jeep Cherokee Limited 4x4. Maintenance performed over the last two years: 1. The heater wasn't blowing as hot as it should have been, so I had the heater core flushed out which solved the problem. Heat and A/C are awesome! 2. I had a documented Jeep Service bulletin performed, which involved having an insulator sleeve installed on the number 3 cylinder. Not sure exactly what that is, but it was a service bulletin that was outstanding, so I had that performed. 3. New ceramic brakes all around (about 4000 miles ago). 4. New 'gold' battery (about 6000 miles ago). 5. I had a complete tune up of the vehicle (recent). 6. New water hose when I got the car. (Couldn't verify if original was still in, so I just replaced it). 7. New catalytic converter installed (about a year ago). 8. New HD Alpine stereo and speakers. I took it to Shaun at 911motoring in Raleigh. Hhad all new speakers put in and a bluetooth HD Radio that brings the audio up to high-end 2014 levels. Hands free phone, the works. (Oh, when I had the new speakers put in I decided to put in a new headliner). Just a note on this. One of the ways to listen is on a thumb drive. I didn't even try this for the longest time. Then we took it on a trip and I had a bunch of books on the thumbdrive, and it worked perfectly. I have one in the cabin now, and it's visible on the pictures. This was part of the audio install Shaun did for me. 9. I didn't want to sell it with older tires, so I spent over $800 on a new set of Michelins. The ride was good before, but these tires made a big difference. Wonderful! 10. A lot of little stuff. New windshield wiper blades. A little latch on the center console. Detailing. Regular (and I mean regular) oil changes. The engine runs cool and smooth. The 4x4 Command Trac transmission engages and shifts nicely. This Jeep has never failed to start and get me going. I didn't hestitate to take it on a one way 7 hour trip up to the mountains. Zero problems! I average about 17 1/2 mpg and that is without trying to save gas. I tried once and got it up to 23 mpg. Your mileage may vary ;-) Summary: This was Jeep's top of the line model when new with leather seats, air, power windows and locks, etc. Now it has been thoroughly updated to 2014 standards with modern tires and sound. Always garage kept which is why the paint has that luster (pictures are untouched!). The paint actually looks better on this car than on my 2006 Hyundai (Also garage kept). The car, I think by now you may agree, has been well maintained and it shows inside and out. There is a small dimple on the lower driver's side door at the bottom. This has always been adult driven car. The prior owner was in his late 40's, and I used to be. Look at the pictures. If you want a classic Jeep Cherokee, this is it. Best of luck and thanks for looking. |

Jeep Cherokee won't get diesel until sales of oil-burning Grand Cherokee improve
Tue, 01 Jul 2014Okay Jeep fans, you want more diesel options? Time to step up and prove it. The only way Jeep will offer a diesel powerplant in the Cherokee, according to brand head Mike Manley, is if sales of the Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel nearly double.
Currently, about eight percent of the Grand Cherokees sold feature the 3.0-liter, EcoDiesel V6. That's simply not enough to warrant the bringing an oil-burning Cherokee to the US market, despite the vehicle's presence in Europe, where it's sold with a 2.8-liter diesel V6.
"Cherokee is slightly different because of its weight and size. When I think about bringing Cherokee diesel here, I would like to see Grand Cherokee diesel get much higher than eight percent," Manley told Automotive News. "It would have to be in mid-double digits."
Jeep recalls 92k Grand Cherokee SUVs over electrical issue
Thu, 07 Nov 2013According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler is recalling 91,559 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2014 model year due to some serious electrical issues. All of the affected models were built between January 8 and August 20, 2013.
The NHTSA report states that, "Due to a disruption of computer communications and loose alternator ground wires, the affected vehicles may experience random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination and loss of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) function." The loss of ABS or ESC would greatly reduce a driver's ability to control the vehicle if things get squirrely, and since these failures would not be illuminated on the dashboard display, drivers would not be warned of the issue, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to kick off sometime this month. Chrysler will notify affected Jeep owners and dealerships "will update the ABS and instrument cluster module software and tighten the alternator ground wire," according to NHTSA.
Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT gets power increase, minor tweaks for 2015
Tue, 02 Sep 2014As a brand within Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, SRT may have an uncertain future, but it's pumping out some seriously mean machines anyway. The supercharged Hellcat V8 may be gobbling up most of the headlines with its 707 horsepower, but even the Grand Cherokee SRT is getting some small updates for the 2015 model year.
Most importantly for many enthusiasts, the Grand Cherokee SRT is getting a slight power bump. Don't expect the 700+ hp from the Hellcat, but this SUV sees a modest 5-hp and 5-pound-feet of torque improvement to bring output to 475 hp and 470 lb-ft for its 6.4-liter V8 with an eight-speed automatic. The minor change doesn't change the sprint to 60 miles per hour, clocking in at the same 4.8 seconds, or the tow rating at 7,200 pounds. Still, more grunt is never a bad idea.
Another new addition is the Active Noise Canceling system as a standard feature for this powerful SUV. It adds four microphones around the vehicle and uses the stereo system to nullify extraneous sound. However, Jeep claims that the meaty exhaust note from the V8 still gets through into the cabin for driver enjoyment.
