Loved it

published

Great car. Beautiful to drive and gorgeous to look at. Plenty of space and power. Fuel consumption of my 5.7L V8 was as expected ( it's thirsty- no two ways about it - average of 11L/100km on the highway at 110km/h. Around town expect closer to 20l/100km ). ECO mode is useless. The stereo system is awesome.
Had no issues with it other than parts being ridiculously expensive. For major service items like the transmission service, buy local aftermarket parts or from the USA - Jeep genuine parts prices are nuts.

Overland 2015 DIesel

published

Had this car since new and with no problems at all. Love the way it handles and tows my caravan. Plenty of power to overtake and do the day to day groceries. Great fuel economy as well for a heavy car and defiantly would recommend this car for someone that is after a 6 cylinder diesel.

Impressed

What a SUV, purchased 2nd hand, at first I was a bit cautious as everyone says not a Jeep they have problems but it’s not 1990’s anymore ha, well I have had the car for 2 months and the comfort, features, technology and fuel mileage is awesome, very spacious as well, handling is great and very smooth on the open road with minimal road noise, Jeep have been great to communicate with when I have asked about recalls that I have heard about they said if there is any for the car they will call me and book it in to get rectified if any come up which none has, I like the SUV and now a proud Jeep owner :)

Great Car

published

I have found nothing wrong with the car. It has almost every option of a high quality luxury car. Love the power, performance, off road capability, economy and reliability. Excellent when towing my 2.5 tonne caravan. Only negative and it’s a valid one. The vehicle is costly to service especially compared to other 4 WD’s.

Love the car. Dislike Jeep Australia- woeful customer service.

published

Great car to drive with wonderful safety features - especially love the Assisted Cruise Control.
Tows large caravan easily. Economy cruising with van is 14-16 litres/100kms which is brilliant.
On the bad side FCA (aka Jeep Australia) still have not contacted me with their supposed offer of an extended 2-year warranty (normal 3-yr warranty now finished as of last Xmas). Also recently, a rear air suspension boot blew and FCA have refused to cover the $1700 cost of the part which should be covered under the extended warranty - which as stated I still have not been offered despite public promises from FAD. My dealer has been good in this matter and it's FCA who are renigging to date!

Purchased the Overland 2014 and LOVE IT!

published

Purchased the Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 2014 model and LOVE IT! Our family loves the extra functions such as the lift suspension, the keyless entry, panoramic sunroof, heated and cooling in both front and rear seats, stop/start engine, bluetooth connection, inbuilt navigator. All in all a smooth drive that doesn't feel heavy at all.

Easily the best car I have ever owned.

published

We have now done 157k kilometers lms in this car and it has never missed a beat.
We towed a camper trailer along the Strzlecki, Birdsville, Oodnadatta and Tanami tracks and it performed flawlessly.
It is economical to run and beautiful to drive.
We spent 3 months last year travelling the country and saw hundreds of these cars pulling all sorts of rigs. I made a point of asking as many as I possibly could about their experiences and without fail each one was the same story as mine.
Maybe the bad rap is really just fake news?
I love this thing so much I have just bought an My18 and it seems to be even better.

Love our car!

published

We bought a jeep after learning we were pregnant with our second child. Wanted something bigger, yet still luxurious.
We got one which has extra safety features which as side mirror notifications if someone is beside you and other things also.
Love the leather interior, dash and lights. A favourite thing is the heated seats in winter!

great suv but question service intervals

published

Have done 28000kms mostly towing just under 3 tonne caravan and hasn't missed a beat and does it easy as shown by incredible economy with last trip of 3000 km returning an overall 13.7 litres/100kms. my only question is the recommended service intervals having come from Mercedes with same 3 litre turbocharged diesel and 250000kms to 10000kms or 6 months. What do others think is this just for the dealers bottom line or really necessary.

Too many recalls

published

Bought it brand new. Looks good, feels good, solid build. Boot smaller than it appears, invested in roof box.
Unfortunately had 3 recalls so far, on top of 6 monthly servicing, that's just way too many costly trips to the dealership. They treat me nice, very friendly and professional, however every time I go there it inconveniences me. Latest thing is excessive fan noise, this is introduced by implementing S49 recalls. Now I need to go back to do recall for a recall. Not good enough Jeep.

Great vehicle, excellent 4X4 with exceptional fit, finish and options

published

I bought the Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland and find it absolutely amazing.
How many 2.2 ton vehicles get 33mpg, which are also 4 wheel drive?
How many vehicles, of the same price, have adaptive cruise control, air suspension, electronic locking diff and transfer case?
I owned my previous Jeep for 9 years, never missed a beat, still have it.
So I could have bought any other vehicle, but none compares, value for money.
I love all the doubters, bagging them, makes them great buying opportunities.

So far so great

published

Great all round car, Plenty of torque, Great interior with all the luxury of a car three times it's price, Off road ability is great (Overland with Off Road pack), Have traveled 40,000km in rural QLD so far over two years and never had a problem. Only thing I don't like is the Air Suspension when in Off Road mode (highest clearance) knocks when going over moderate bumps, but you only use it when you need to, so it's not an issue - but annoying.

Bought a Heep

published

Great advert so decided to purchase a new Grand Cherokee Overland to tow our new 22' caravan. Salesman said there was no problem towing with this vehicle and yes, it towed. But once you got over 85kph the quad air suspension kicked in and the van was all over the road. After 5 months couldn't stand it any longer and traded it in for a 4 year old Land Cruiser which did the job beautifully. So now ... happy travels and happy caravanning. Mind you, if we weren't towing would definitely have kept it. Beautiful car to drive, ogre to tow.
