2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport XJ, 4.0L, 4WD, 4 Door, 151k, Automatic with snow tires + summer tires, PA Inspected thru 9/2014.

Runs good and has been reliable for me for the 2+ years I have owned it. Body and frame seem solid, only very minor rust at the bottom of the doors (passes PA inspection). 4WD system works well. It includes two complete sets of wheels and tires. The summer tires/ steel wheels are OK and pass PA inspection. The winter tires shown in the pictures are Firestone Winterforce and are almost like new (less than 2k miles) and are also mounted on their own steel rims. I found that it is un-stopable in the snow with these tires even in 12+ inches of snow.

The Good:

Engine / transmission / drive system is strong and has been reliable. All the fluids were changed with in the last year (engine oil, brake fluid, transfer case, front and rear difs, and antifreeze).

Has new Monroe Air shocks on the back along with a Class III hitch

Has a new muffler

Had a new radiator, water pump, hoses, Hello Fog lamps, and serpentine belt 2 years ago.

The Bad:

Check Engine light comes on for P155 code which is the after Cat oxygen sensor. That sensor only verifies the cat is working for emissions, so the Jeep runs fine. I drove it less than 5K miles a year, so it is emissions exempt.

Some times I get a code for Cylinder #6 misfire but its seems to come and go and only effects it at idle (not a problem under load). I put fuel injection cleaner thru it and it seemed to fix it.

Slight rust at the bottom of the doors, but it does pass PA inspection.

It had AC, but it is long gone. The plumbing and condenser are missing. The AC compressor is still there, but I don't know if it works.

The Ugly:

The body is decent, but has scratches and dings from 150K miles and 13 years. I don't think it has ever been wrecked.

It has two added transmission coolers that I added to deal with towing a 3000 lb boat. It works great but doesn't look the best mounted on front of the radiator.

The interior is mostly OK, but the driver seat is wearing.

Everything works electrically except the front speakers for the radio. The back speakers are Kenwood and sound good.

Local Pickup only, would prefer cash as the time of pick up.

Jeep sets all-time sales record in 2012

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

Last year was good to Jeep. Chrysler has announced its trail-rated brand set an all-time global sales record in 2012 by moving 701,626 units. That number easily surpasses the previous record set in 1999 when Jeep sold 675,494 models. All told, the brand saw a 19-percent sales increase worldwide over 2011, and much of that swell can be traced directly to the Wrangler. While the Grand Cherokee led Jeep sales, the Wrangler posted record numbers both globally and within the US, moving 194,142 and 141,669 units in each market, respectively.
Meanwhile, the Compass beat its previous global sales record with 103,321 units rolling off of dealer lots. In the US, Jeep sold 62,010 Patriot units, breaking that model's previous record as well. Jeep's impressive performance in 2012 marks the second year in a row the brand has seen double-digit percentage sales increases. Check out the full press release below.

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."
