Car Problems tells about the basic Jeep Grand Cherokee 1993-1999 car problems which arise while in service the car.
Serious car problems electric equipment at Jeep Grand Cherokee isn't present. However the car is equipped by various gages, drive gears and other — as a result there are everyones small car problems. More often to a detail wiring diagram refuses because of the decayed or broken wires or sockets. Last car problem, despite seeming simplicity of repair, can deliver many efforts, after all is often difficult to find straight off where what contact piece has fallen off.
The diesel engine of Jeep Grand Cherokee in volume of manufacture of the Italian company of 2,5 l «VM Motori» which established on the European versions whimsical and often creates additional car problems in a kind expensive major repairs (for example, only one hoses of the turbine manage in $400). The 2,5-liter diesel engine with capacity only 116 h.p. often if not always, it is compelled to work on a limit of the possibilities. For any the car of it, probably, would be quite enough, but only not for Jeep Grand Cherokee.
And the least problem it is considered the most reliable the 4-liter engine, on the design very similar to the motors established on the American off-road cars still in the sixties of last century. This pig-iron engine with chain drive gear GDG even maintains an overheat very easy! And if repair it usually costs not too expensively also is necessary to it — in many cases it is possible to keep within $1000. The most whimsical — the most powerful unit in volume of 5,9 l. It is very exacting to quality of lubricant, fuel, is afraid of an overheat and is inclined to car problems layer pads under an intake manifold.
Though if in the engine to fill in good fuel and in time to change oil, power units won't create car problems long time. Weeping epiploons become first sign of the worn out engine — at the 4-liter engine oil from a rear epiploon of a bent shaft very often flows, on what it is possible not to pay attention - after replacement an epiploon, in a half-year car problem can appear again. One more car problems Jeep Grand Cherokee — rather frequent failure of a gasoline pump. To solve this problem, on service sometimes suggest to cut the additional pump. Happens that the electronic ignition coil breaks, and in most cases out of operation there is the detail of the American manufacture established on Jeep Grand Cherokee in the first years of manufacture. Then it have replaced with more reliable Japanese.
For all tastes Jeep Grand Cherokee Almost all "Grandees" have the reliable automatic transmission demanding only timely replacement of oil and the sparing mode of operation. However, the drivers in this sense the most irresponsible — so worn out "automatic machines" on Grand Cherokee not a rarity. By the way, this off-road car equipped with several automatic transmission — it is considered the most reliable Japanese product AW4. Very seldom, but nevertheless there are off-road cars to a mechanical gear box to which reliability no claims are present.
The small part of Jeep Grand Cherokee made in the early nineties, had transmission without an interaxle differential (it was called Command-Trac and had internal number NP231). On cars with such transfer box at driving on asphalt the rear wheel drive should be connected only — if not to follow this rule, already shortly will appear car problems.
Periodically there are cars a transfer box of the old sample (249th series) with worn out viscose muffs. When viscose muff starts to wear out, it often blocks differential, even when it it is not required (especially at hot weather). With replacement it is better not to tighten, as in this case there is a strengthened deterioration of propeller shafts, the chain of a transfer box, bridges, SHRUS, crosspieces and so forth For prevention of this car problem can squeeze out from viscose muff silicone lubricant and then the interaxle differential won't be blocked.
Jeep Grand Cherokee suspender is made dependent both in front, and behind. And it is adjusted on comfortable driving. And it means what to pass turning movements on high speed by this car dangerously enough — it is possible to turn over. And still a suspender of first generation Grand Cherokee not such and reliable as can seem at first sight. To touch it it is necessary each two years (or approximately through 60 thousand in km). Sajlent-blocks of the bottom front levers usually fail. For preventive maintenance car problems instead of the standard sajlent-block is better to put the same detail from simple Cherokee which serves longer.
