2001 JGC Whining by livetodrive

I have a '2001 Grand Cherokee with 3,600 miles on it and am also experiencing whining. It's "Dad, can I drive the Jeep", or from my wife: "Why can't I use the Jeep for a change?" I asked the service department manager if this problem could be solved, but he said it was just normal for Jeeps.
 
Seriously, after using the Jeep for the last three months, I haven't had any problems. We appreciate the heated seats and the big V8. On long trips, if I leave it on cruise control at 67 mph I can get 22 mpg. Otherwise, for commuting my 18 highway miles with traffic on either end, I am lucky to get 17 - 18 mpg. I am eagerly waiting for the next big snowfall!

Nice post <g>.
 
I suspect that many of the '99 and '00 bugs have been finally worked out. I'm just about ready to buy a 2001 GCL. With all the incentives DC is offering, we can probably get it for at least $2000 below invoice!

If you have recently purchased a JGCL, I'd love to know what kind of deal you got.
 
Thanks!

tonychrys, 2001 JGCL deal by suvarefun

I just purchased a JGCL on 12/15. I shopped around went to 5 dealers. I did my homework checked out all the dif resources for buying a new car including Edmunds and I was able to negotiate $2,830 off the sticker price. That wasn't below invoice. I don't see how you will get $2000 below invoice even with dealer incentive of $1,000 that was in effect when I made my deal. None of the dealers in my part of the country would come down any farther. If you can power to ya. I Have 705 miles on my JGCL and it runs great no problems at all, handles great. Enjoy your new JGCL.

What Zip code do you live in? Just curious because I'd like to research what the going price is in your area. Thanks.

Tony for what it's worth I got my JGC for $6000 under sticker. But at 800 miles it's in for a new transmission because of the whining

Thanks for the note.
 
Question: Is it a JGCL 2001 and what drive system do you have, i.e, V8 and qudra-drive, etc.

Did I get ripped off? by thathat

We just leased a 2001 JGC Larado and love it. As I look through our agreement papers I found some discrepancies in the numbers. They differ from what they told me they would be. We are paying $453.00 per month for 39 months. Does that sound outrageous? The adjusted Capitalized cost is $26,375.00. The invoice price on this jeep was $29,100.00. The lease for our last jeep (1998 Larado)was due and we loved it so much we decided to lease another jeep. I hope we were not taken to the cleaners with this deal. What do you think?

Grand Cherokee Transfer Case shifting? by gcl98
Dec 31, 2000 (2:04 pm)
Reply
I've got a 98 Laredo, I-6, auto, w/Selec-Trac transfer case and 34,500 miles.
 
There's no problem shifting the T/C to/from 2wd, 4wd f/t, 4wd p/t or *into* 4wd LO. But when I try to shift *from* 4wd LO back into 4wd f/t as per the owner's manual, the t/c gears grind, and I have to shut the car off to move the t/c lever back into *any* position.
 
Am I doing something wrong here or what? Seems to me that you shouldn't have to shut the car off to get out of 4wd LO. Any comments?
 
I have to say that I'm a little surprised at the amount of gripes here about Jeeps. I've had absolutely no problems with mine (other than this one) and am looking to buy a new 2001 Wrangler Sport.
