Buying the 2017 Jeep Cherokee Altitude

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2017 Jeep Cherokee Altitude for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 2017 Jeep Cherokee Altitude, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

Recalls and complaints

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 1,337 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, unknown or other and electrical system; have those parts checked. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done.

The numbers in plain words

The powertrain to know here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

At 9.6 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 29 litres of fuel. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $14.88, and a 300 km weekend about $44.64. The EPA estimates US$2,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Who the Cherokee suits

It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

Drive the Cherokee on your commute before you commit to it. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Cherokee answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

Money matters

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Year and trim

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Java and the Cherokee

We have no location in Java; CarmaCars rents from Toronto, about 1,639 km away. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java.
