The 2001 Jeep Cherokee for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2001 Jeep Cherokee; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Here is what to know about the 2001 Jeep Cherokee before buying one.
Recalls and complaints
Owners filed 229 complaints with NHTSA, most often about service brakes, engine and engine cooling and power train; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Under the hood
It is powered by the 4.0L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
The EPA rates it at 13.1 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 39 litres. Expect about $20.31 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,700 a year for 15,000 miles.
Good uses for the Cherokee
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Size and space
Being an SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.
Try before you buy
A test week in the Cherokee tells you more than any review. Try the Cherokee on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Choosing the right one
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Within the 2001 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $203.10 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Ready when you are
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy
