Hi,
i couldn’t find a Problem chat so I hope this will do.
I’m in the market for an SUV and am looking at a 2017 Grand Cherokee with 101,000 miles. I read an article from Motor Biscuit about transmission and other issues that warn readers to stay away from the 2017 in particular. Transmission problems are mentioned in several articles. Are you guys having these problems?
The Least Reliable 2017 Midsize SUVs According to Consumer Reports
Is it true that problems happen at about 100,000 miles? I’m reading about 3 recalls. I’m not towing anything so that one doesn’t worry me-right now anyway.
My last vehicle purchase was a 2011 Pilot 10 months ago which just went down in flames. $6500 and over $9000 in repair estimates from 2 shops. Basically I paid $5000 (cost - trade) to drive a Pilot Touring for 10 months. I’d like to not make another expensive mistake. I am a recent widow with a son and can’t have either of us getting stuck or paying more repair bills. I need this next vehicle to carry a kayak rack and be reliable for at last a few years. I had the Pilot checked out at a Honda dealer and will have the Grand Cherokee checked Monday.
What do you experts think about the 2017 with 101,000 miles?
I feel like I have Sucker written on my forehead that only car sales and service or repairmen can see.
Thanks in advance,
Exhausted with expensive vehicle meltdowns
