Default New Grand Cherokee diesel

Am considering buying a new Grand Cherokee Limited diesel. Would appreciate any feedback on issues or dealer servicing.

Check out service intervals and most importantly ascertain the service costs. They can be horrendous.

And find a really good dealer cause Fiat Chrysler are dodgy as hell and if you do need warranty work a good dealer is worth their weight in gold.

Had my diesel for 2&1/2years now and loved every minute of driving and riding in it.
Great gutsy motor with even better fuel economy.

Agree with earlier post, if you intend to take it off road, grab the rock rails, lift and underbody protection. Looks even better with a Uneek bullbar on the front if animal strikes is a potential.

I have had a recent problem where my transfer case is being replaced under warranty, but my dealer and Jeep Aus have been great.
