Default new diesel grand cherokee

I have just purchased the new 2.7 diesel grand cherokee...my reason for buying this vehicle was the great reviews given the mercedes drive train and the look of the vehicle. I have been warned of some reliability issues with Jeep and was wondering what i should look out for...i pick up my Jeep tomorrow...cant wait!!!!
cheers..
