2014 Jeep Cherokee; Over 10,000 sold now
"The highly anticipated Cherokee is a replacement for the Jeep Liberty and marks the first time a Jeep-brand vehicle will be based on a Fiat platform."


"Automotive News said the delay was due to the installation of new software to smooth out the way the engine, nine-speed transmission and innovative disconnecting drivetrain interact. Chrysler is test-driving each Cherokee before it is released for delivery."



[link to www.edmunds.com]




That is not a good sign that they have to test drive every one of them before delivery.



I predict many complaints about the transmission.

Jeep hasn't been "jeep" since the 80's. It's a fucking Chrysler at best.

Can the proud new 2014 Cherokee owners say "It's a Jeep Thang", if it is a Fiat?

No. I'm offended at the $3K I had to spend fixing faulty crap on these POS vehicles.

But I wised up and now I'm rid of these, my wallet is breathing a big sigh of relief.

Sad thing is, they could have put that new look over a simple little real 4x4 chassis, kept it small, simple, and cheap, and then sold a shitload of them.

Wow. Doesn't even look like a Jeep.
It looks something like Hundai's attempt to make a European SUV.

Don't see Jeep nor Fiat in it at all.

 Quoting: Chip



"The solution, in Jeep’s point of view, was to release the new Cherokee in four strengths: Sport, Latitude, Limited, and the Trailhawk model pictured here. Eager to prove the new car-based Cherokee is no pansy, Jeep took us to Wrangler territory and sent us over Hell’s Revenge and Fins and Things, a pair of challenging slickrock trails in Utah’s canyon country near Moab."

On topic im not sure I like that at all. Jeep has a particular look to it where you can tell what it is from a distance and this does not look like anything special at all. Thats sad because I really like Jeeps the older and more basic the better.
