I JUST GOT THE 2015 JEEP G C LIMITED ALTITUDE GREY .. BLACKED OUT . AWESOME RIDE !

we just bought one of these in Australia, wont get it till the end of January, thanks for your review, its great to find one from an actual owner.

Just ordered my 2015 altitude edition in the maximum steel color and I'm so excited to get it. Color looks great

Great review!! I've had mine (2014 Limited V-6) for 3 months I'm averaging 20.5 mpg combined city/highway. The only thing that may be an issue down the road is the battery is under passenger seat. If it ever goes dead you won't be able to move the power seat forward to replace it. After putting 2400 miles on it I would definitely recommend this vehicle, I love mine!!

Thanks a lot for the review and taking the time to inform potential buyers like myself who are on the market for this type of vehicle. A dealer will only give you the good things about the car, but not the negatives. People like you are the ones that gives the best feedback. Now, about what's your average fuel economy. How much did you pay out the door for the car.

Great review! The GC Limited is currently in the running for my next SUV. Thanks again!

great review-thank you! Going to drive one tomorrow and was wavering but now that I've seen this I'm def going!

picking up 2015 grand cherokee altitude edition this weekend cant wait nice review man enjoy!

thanks for the tip on the dimming of the console from day to night mode! it's been driving me crazy!

Thank you for the video. Brought my new 2014 Jeep home today and trying to learn all the new gadgets (my last vehicle was Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 1997) so I need to learn about the new technology. Your video was helpful.

Awesome vid. Thanks very much for showing this. Nice to know a consumers point of view

Thank you this was really helpful as we are looking at getting one next month!

my jeep grand Cherokee has 175 mi..so far so good love the way it drives

I ordered my 2014 from the factory, set up just like yours but different color combo. (I have 10K miles at this time). Two important points to add; 1. the tire/wheel combination, we have, provides a softer ride than the larger wheel/low profile tire configuration. 2. when you have the Trailer Tow Pkg. we also receive half of the air ride system of the Overland. It is an auto leveling system. This also adds to ride quality. Ride quality is very important to me as I' like many other men, have a bad back. We are very happy with our 2014 as it has passed my bad back long trip test :-)

Hey Doc...have you had any electrical issues with yours? I just bought the same model as yours and it shut down on me on the highway after the locks not working correctly for a couple days.

I have the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited Diesel. I am amazed with the performance of the diesel. On open highway I'm getting 28 to 33 miles per gallon. On back roads I'm getting 24 to 26 miles per gallon. This is my second Grand Cherokee and it is faster then the 2009 was which was a V-8. Overall I am very inpressed with this car and highly recommand it.

Good review, but you have to realize that a TRUE unbiased review is one from someone who has no vested interest in any way. An owner or a dealer is inherently biased. Dealers want to sell the vehicle and owners want to feel that they made a "good" choice in buying the vehicle. I'm shopping now for a midsize SUV and I'm leaning heavily toward the 2014 Grand Cherokee. I did find your review helpful overall.

Thank you for this great review, at the end you said you would give us an update on your opinion about it ? Happy new year mate !!

I want to thank everyone who has taken time to view this video and leave comments. I have just uploaded a 1 year follow up video, so pelase subscribe and check out the latest video to hear my comments and concerns after having owned the Jeep for a little over a year!

Thank you guys for all the comments - I have heard you loud and clear and I'll make a follow up video within the next 2 weeks!

Good Review..I'm planning on driving one this weekend.

just test drove one at the dealer yesterday. still test driving other makes but I think my mind is made on the grand Cherokee. V6 but not as loaded as yours. thanks for the review.

Honestly the best review

I like the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Thanks for your detailed review

Great video and giving your honest opinion. Just traded a Challenger RT in for the 2014 GC limited V6 last night. I have zero experience with SUV vehicles, and spent most of my driving life in sporty cars. The snow was coming down and the roads were starting to ice over...perfect conditions to be in a jeep right? So, my first test drive made me nervous before getting in the vehicle. The drive was amazing and all fears of sliding around in a vehicle that was not mine went away! Very smooth ride and sure footed. The auto terrain drive mode returned no slip in the snow whatsoever! Very surprised. A good manual transmission is the way to go, but will say the ZF is liquid smooth. The interior layout is simple and easy to use. The plastic metal look bezel around the radio could be better if I had to nitpic something. BTW, thanks for the tip about dimming the navigation screen. There is plenty of space for rear passengers and overall cargo volume. I had zero intentions of getting an SUV and was set to purchase the new Infiniti Q50x AWD. For what this thing can do on and off road you cant beat it. It pretty much owns the bang for the buck category for SUVs. Good luck to those that have one. If you don't and are interested, definitely give it a test drives chance.

Thanks, Nice review. I want one so bad, just not the payment.

2015 Black JGC Altitude. Happy with it so far. I've activated all UConnect features with absolutely no issues. Everything works seamlessly.

Great Review!

You helped me with the dimming of the navigation screen. Couldn't figure that out was manually doing it felt like an idiot.

That review was very good. You should try reviewing more vehicles.

Good basic review- thanks. Am also considering a new Jeep Grand Cherokee - looks great, but little worried bout "too much" electronics in it.

Good Review!! Thank you.

Great honest review. What did you think of sound system quality?

Buying my jeep grand Cherokee this week.

Definitely a helpful video.

Great review.. I got the 2015 Limited with the luxury option and love the car so far. Only downside is I thought it came with the navigation since it got the 8.4" screen and it didn't. The dealer in the end activated the Navigation but it's not as nice like the one that comes already activated. So If u want Navigation get one that comes from the factory and not one that's Nav Ready.

I bought the exact same car and was so suprised to find that nav was not activated. How stupid to not have it come with it. Cost me an extra $700.

Thank you for The video. I'm looking at a 2014-2015:Grand Cherokee living in ON I really am interested in what owners enjoy/dislike about the vehicle. you went with the V6. what mileage are you getting now. do you have the pre collision adaptive cruise and blind spot monitoring. Have you done any towing (if so how is the power to get on the freeway or interstate) Sorry for all the questions but you asked if people had any questions THX

Nice video except, after 4 years of ownership, my 2014 4x4 JGC limited is having major problems, at 83K miles it shouldn’t have any issues! But it’s costing me over $500.00, in repairs. Codes pop up right after another code was repaired. Considering a 4RUNNER for my next SUV.

We have the 2014 Grand Cherokee Limited and have had it for about 10 months now. Has anyone had a problem with the UConnect system? We are constantly getting the message "vehicle phone requires service". The radio has been replaced twice and have had it to the dealer at least 4 times for service updates. The latest was Friday and Saturday the message appeared again. Twice the radio quit altogether, but returned after restart.

Have a 2014 Grand Cherokee Summit Diesel , very solid vehicles, the gear shifter could be smoother sometimes u have to make a few attempts to get it into proper gear but it just takes getting used to. Great on fuel for such a fairly hefty vehicle, the price I feel is a bit more than it should be when taking into account depreciation rate compared to some other similar vehicles. Winter is coming So I am excited to see how snow mode with Pirelli Winter carving edge tires turns out int he canadian harsh cold. So far no real problems altho only have 2500 KM or so on the vehicle. In retrospect I kind of wish I had gone fully loaded Overland with the 18 inch rims for a bit softer ride and to be able to get skid plates and trail rated badge, bummer too is this year they added active noise cancelling and sound deadening windshield and rear windows tot he summit as well as a third interior option..oh well. So far good SUV tho. Great review enjoyed it a lot.

Hi, very nice review. thanks. how's car performing now? Are u still using the same? Pls share your views further.

You might wanna consider an updated review since the video is a year old & so is your car.

any updated review or any issues with how many miles you put on it now?

My dream car:)

hey man thanks for the video! I have a question, how much did you paid for it? if you don't mind, I like the SRT 2012 too I'm between those 2 thanks again!

Very Nice Video

Hey, can you tell me what kind of space you get at the back with the rear seats folded down? Am looking to go camping with my family and wonder if it's possible to sleep in the back with seats folded. I'm 6'2". I'm looking at this, an Explorer and an MDX. Thanks.

+PMHSLight What package gives you the LED bi-xenon headlamps? I am a thirteen year old car geek but my stepmom is getting a new gc soon but wants the LED lights on it. We have noticed that some of the grand cherokee limiteds have the LEDs and some dont.. We really want them, they give the car a highend look, but it is nice anyways.

I just recently got a 2014 JGC and the Eco mode stays off once you turn it off. And if you just use sport mode it auto turns it off!

wish u would update your thoughts on this jeep....

hi... awesome review but what about the reliability of the car?

i have been a jeep guy for a long time I love them I am going to get a new one soon I like this one and the color I had had 2 grand Cherokee and now have a 2011 jeep liberty I had a 2004 so yes I am going to get this one love every thing about it the in side and out I was going to get a ram 1500 but I am just a jeep guy

are you sure the spare is full size? its 245 on mine so its smaller.

Why aren't the headlights led ? Only the back ? That doesn't make sense

Can u change the color below the middle monitor? Yours is tan.. any other options available?

nice car really it is very quite car < yesterday i got one

3:11 your hot pocket is done

question for ya. is there glare issues with the NAV screen?

I've been researching several cars for future purchase and while I test drove this and loved what it offered, I read several blogs where the 2014 had more "in for service" comments that I would consider for a newer car. A number of folks said they had problems with the screening going out on them/other electrical issues Anyone else having problems?

just a follow up- they went back again with the same issue. it seems to be happening to a lot of people. IMHO, the tech itself is fine, the car makers just dont want to spend the money on making sure its a streamline from car to customer; simply because the cost would push most consumers away. offer this tech at this price, well fix a few glitches but were selling units.

How do you like it? Do you like the tech, driving experience, finish?

Auto tilt of the mirrors when in reverse is an option in the settings.

I own a 14 SRT. The car is nice with lots of power but its main issue in my opinion is the interior quality. The materials used are cheap specially the silver trim on the dash (yours is tan) and the hard plastic in the center console on the sides of the gear shifter. They could use better materials than these. But overall I love my SRT.

Im debating on trading my car in for a 2014 GC Limited. It has 19k milies on it and the dealer wants $35k. its loaded and has navigation but i dont know if its worth it in the long run. How has Maint been after a year?

How many MPG are you getting with the V6? Does it take regular or do you need to put in premium fuel? I'm seriously thinking about getting one of these, but I don't have any history or experience with Chrysler's reputation or build quality. I tend to finance my vehicles and want something that's built solid.

@rhowell5

10 жыл бұрын

Depending on how much you drive you will realistically get get anywhere between 17 to 20 gallons per mile. It takes regular gas or you can put E85 and supposedly you get more MPG (I haven't tried it yet so I can't tell you for personal experience) I got a great deal on mine and have had it for about 3 weeks and I love this SUV. I think its a nice build, solid, rugged, cuts through heavy snow like a hot knife through butter. Good horse power too.

i have a 2014 Grand cherokee Diesel, and mine has alot more features then urs, i have no complaints runs really well i get 1000kms to a tank,

I got a GMC Acadia bc it’s engine reliability ratings but I have to admit I got it because it reminded me of a Jeep Grand Cherokee 👌

naic

You sound like Jay Mohr.

Is it a v8 or v6?

Have you encountered any transmission issues w/ the vehicle so far; possible reliability is the only thing keeping me from buying this vehicle. Much nicer than other vehicles in its class. Would only consider 4Runner Limited as an alternative, but GC has much nicer interior and seems more refined

Looking at all the problems on KZread with these, I'll advise people to stay away until they work out the bugs, chances are they won't. I have a new 2015 4Runner TRD Pro. I love it.

Owned my 14 Grand Cherokee a couple years now and have had no problems with anything. It seems if something does come up with these jeeps it is easily fixed as you said with just a software update. I do find it funny the other poster(Honda Solutions) says stay away from jeep and he talks about how reliable his 4 runners are when he didn't mention his new 2015 4 runner wouldn't shift into gear and needed a new transmission already with less than 5,000 miles. Ok so any car can have bugs. I can tell you I have owned Grand Cherokees since 1993 and none of them have been problematic and the resale value has been good too.

@HondaSolutions

The issue is commonality with major problems. Try looking at how many per 1,000 Jeep GC vs 4Runner. Sure, I admit my new 4Runner had to have a transmission replaced. But it took two days, not 3 weeks like most people say it takes. No manufacturers are perfect. But the thing people don't realize with Toyota is that they have the vehicles major components tested for years before they come to the U.S. And most of the time they go into Lexus before getting put into Toyotas for 4-7 years. That means they have most if not all the bugs worked out by the time it gets to building a Toyota. Jeep on the other hand isn't like that. I would still take my old 4Runner in reliability over a brand new Jeep GC, it will hold its value better as well despite having a new 4Runner that had to have a transmission replaced.

How old are you, dude?

Are they reliable and last long than before?

Are you crazy? Why would you put a 17 year old in a $40,000 vehicle? They are going to bang it up - no way around it. Plus the insurance is going to eat your bank account alive. You would be a lot better off putting her in something less expensive (preferably used and already depreciated) and then upgrading her in a couple of years after she has some experience.
