Any thing to look out for?

Just bought a 2009 Jeep grand Cherokee Limited. This thing has everything! As I am a bodyman and not a mechanic I was wondering if there are any inherant items to look out for. I am big into preventive maintanance. This is a 3.7 v-6. 44,500 miles. We are going to pull the door panels and fenders and 1/4 trim and rustproof the snot out of it. Then bring it to the dealer to have the rockers rust proofed on the inside as well as the unibody strutural members. Don't want it to rust out like my liberty.

Honestly, the list is long. They have been known to have many mechanical problems.

It sounds like you have owned Jeeps before and it will be just fine!!! I have always wanted a CJ-5 (guess my age!!) with a V-8, big tires and dual exhaust just to ram around in.

Have fun with your new vehicle.

Yeah I have had a few but this one has Soooo much electronic stuff and all my others were quite spartan. My first jeep was a cj5 with a 401! Not a good combination for a 19 year old. Got into alot of trouble with that thing oh did I mention it could pop wheelies!

Deer mostly. Some will run across the road very quickly, those you really need to look out for.

Brother has one and he has had tranny issues. Other than that its in really good shape. Its an 05 with the same motor with 105xxx.

I have one a few years older with 190k on it. It's been extremely dependable with no major repairs. Still runs great with no issues.
