High Altitude *Eco Diesel*

Homer, 02/06/2017
2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee High Altitude 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
Been looking at this car since 2014 model and pulled the trigger on the 2016 because of replaced shifter and fixed bugs from previous model years. Fit and finish is fantastic so far. Chrysler took the Mercedes refinement and stuck it into JGC interior. Very nice. Seats are very comfortable (keeping an eye on Leather durability). Uconnect is intuitive. Italian EcoDiesel gets great … highway mileage and tows like a champ . Astonishing actually. Pulls my 5500lb boat like its not even there. 8 speedTransmission (german I believe) works well. My only trepidation is all the electronics/computer components-- which is true for most cars these days. The Advanced Technology Group is very slick. I also like the fact that it can be turned off. Regardlesss, for the price I paid -- this Diesel is hard to beat. Pay no attention to the EPA accusations about the 3.0 Eco Diesel. Compared to my old Duramax-- the JGC emissions are non existent. IMHO My guess is FCA will be exonerated from EPA shakedown. The only Vehicle that could top this (for the money) would be a Diesel version of the Durango (which shares most components and has a third row)...... Stay tuned , I will update in 6 months. 2/1 /2019 Update : Mileage 25,652 I have yet to reset my mpg and I am averaging 26mpg. That is with towing a boat ocasionally and using the remote start( in winter mostly). Pretty darn good. Leather seats are holding up pretty well. The good and bad. Bad: The remote start did not work under 20dgrs and it took two trips to CJDR dealer to figure out it was a voltage problem and basically just a bad AGM battery. Passenger side rear seat heater crapped out. Fixed under warranty. Exterior Roof rails (which dont seem to have any purpose) cracked at front ends. Replaced under warranty. The OEM Tires (Bridgestone Ecopias) were good for the first year but were absolutely terrible in the snow this year. Replaced them with Continental Terrain/ Contacts A/T -- wow-- huge difference ! Better in every category including towing ride. Continentals are a tad more aggressive but no noticeable tire noise difference from OEM. Good: This JGC is a joy to drive....particularly on longer drives. We load this truck with kids,dogs ,paddleboards (roof rack) and sometimes tow a boat (6000lbs). The JGC takes it all in stride. The fit and finish are holding up nicely. The adjustable hydraulic suspension is a huge plus for easy in and out and automatic load leveling for towing. My wife loves both the Uconnect touch screen (very intuitive) and the fact that there are manual buttons and dials as well. Also the BSM, adjustable cruise control and safety sensors have saved us many times. The highway mpg registers 30+ at times. Crazy. So far the JGC is still the Goldilocks vehicle for our family. I still do recommend it (Diesel) -- particularly if you tow toys from time to time. Update 2/10/ 2020 : Lots to unpack since last update above. Contrary to my prediction above -FCM did settle with EPA On Diesel admissions . Good news / Bad news. Bad News first: The settlement includes a download update , extended warranty and $3000 to owner from FCA. Did the update and eventually received payout from FCA. The Download was not supposed to affect performance- - It absolutely reduced mpg and performance. The gas pedal ( Turbo lag ) was borderline dangerous. Not good. Good news: After researching JGC Diesel blogs I did the following. I purchased the “Green Diesel JGC Hot tune” for $700 and installed. Now the JGC performs better than It ever has. No turbo lag whatsoever and mpg is closer to 30mpg now. I’m still ahead about $2200. Other than the FCA gymnastics- - the Eco Diesel is still great. Highly recommend the 2016. Continental Tires are still great. 8/30/20 Update: 47892 mileage. Good News/ Bad News... Bad news: While loaded up and towing a boat- the check engine light came on. The dash read ," Service within 200 miles...". Took into nearest dealer and found I needed to replace the def Injector. Luckily under extended warranty. I asked mechanic to look around underneath for rattle near engine. Fortunately he noticed that a nut had come off exhaust manifold and had melted part of my engine harness. All replaced under warranty.... but a bit unnerving. At this point I would suggest anyone buying a Jeep product to buy the extended warranty or buy used with certified pre owned warranty ( I did same years ago on 1987 Grand Wagoneer Woody wagon). After this last episode - The warranty has paid off huge. Other than that-- still good on the Jeep. 3/3/2021 56390 miles. Due to Covid -- have taken some long trips in the JGC. From snow to extreme heat -JGC took it in stride. Had all Brakes done-- front split Rotor. Normal maintenance. FCA Notice Waiting for EGR recall parts to come in. Tire Update: Have about 25k on the Continental Terrain Contact A/Ts have quite a bit of tread -- but highway road noise is starting to be noticeable. Still good in snow and excellent on wet. 4/22/22 Update. 72000 miles. Avg mpg is 24. Put on new Cooper ATS/3 tires. Waaayyyy better in snow and rain. Very good for towing. Unfortunately as noisy as the Continentals. Both great Tires and highly recommend over OEM tires. Did a 3000 mile trip towing a 5500lb boat and averaged 14mpg. Not bad. Diesel prices were terrible. Did all major scheduled maintenance: Front,center and rear diff, transmission fluid flush-- up to date on everything. Replaced "upstream Nox sensor' per error code (covered under warranty). Again-- if you are going to buy any Stellantis/FCA vehicle- buy it CPO or buy extended warranty. My return on Warranty has been almost double what I paid. Its a jeep. Once jeep hits 100k miles my son in Colorado will be taking it. Hoping the Diesel holds up for another 50k miles after that. Since I am now buddies with my Jeep Dealer head of service (he was a regular tech early on)-- I have learned a few things. The new Jeep 4Xe s are out but performing badly. The hybrid does not really switch over in extreme temperatures. NG. Everything electric is coming. I would wait on those as well.. IMHO I cannot understand why car companies dont make Hybrid Diesel Trucks. Seems like a no brainer ( best of both worlds). Next Truck I am looking at is the Toyota Sequoia Hybrid (2024)....stay tuned. 10/27/22 82,000 Miles. Avg mpg is 23 Good News / Bad News. Bad News: Check engine light came on over long range trip in July. Code was Cam lifters out of sequence. NG. Repairs covered under warranty. Took a week to get parts. Repair would have been $3600 without Warranty. This makes me extremely nervous going forward. AND check engine light came on again a few days ago. Error Code was Nox sensor ( again). Bringing in Monday for repairs. Who knows? My Warranty expires 7/23. I will have to make a decision in June.... Because of all the recent issues i have to knock off a couple of stars. I have also done some research on Italian 3.0ltr Diesel to see if others are having issues. They are. In the Ram 1500 with same Diesel--owners report the engine is fine until you tow with it. The Diesel build seems to be not robust enough. I would agree. Kind of too bad. I wanted to keep this jeep for at least 175k but may have to re think that. There are also two unresolved recall issues that do not currently have parts or fix for. One recall calls for acceleration failure. Hmmmm. Good News: Still love to drive this vehicle and hope to keep for a while. Stay tuned. 10/31/23
