I have the exact same vehicle, color true blue pearlcoat and all the options and I love it....It parks itself and brings you back to the middle if you happen to weave to the left or right...If you back out of a parking space and you didn't see a car coming from the right or left, it will hit the brake automatically and many more safety features....Very comfortable and smooth to drive.
Bought a 2015 Cherokee North new in July 2015. So far at 25,000km. Not one issue. We got the 3.2L v6. With the 9 speed transmission we got the following amazing fuel mileage while on cruise control: Halifax to Moncton NB at 100km/h 6.6 L/100km Moncton to Grandfalls NB at 113km/h 7.3L /100km Grandfalls NB back to Halifax at 115km/h 7.7L / 100km This was with 3 adults and luggage for a 1 week vacation. This vehicle is FWD with Factory Trailer Tow package, Navigation, remote start, 8 inch touch screen, heated seats and mirrors. I use only synthetic oil, zero oil consumption since new. The transmission takes time to get used to, it will downshift itself to slow itself down when on cruise control. 1st gear ratio is really low, depending on the load, sometimes it starts out in 2nd gear. With the speed limits in Canada, you will never get it in 9th gear, that was made for Europe and 160 km/h autobahn roads. It is really well insulated and on the hottest days of August we never had to run the AC on max, the extra insulation makes the cabin quiet on drives and eliminates road noise. I do my own maintenance, the oil filter is a cartridge and it is removable from the top of the engine. Definitely recommend the V6 Cherokee
Thanks for the review. Deciding on a small suv and have watched your other other vids. Very informative and practical as to what everyday people look for in a car. Thanks!
Good review. We just bought a the "Sport" level, which doesn't have low range, but it seems that the 9 speed allowed Jeep to make first gear pretty low, so low range doesn't seem as necessary, with the 9 speed auto. I really missed having a low range in our 2005 Forester, but it was a 5 speed manual. A lot of engine pinging and dying, while dinkin' around in the woods in the Forester. The Cherokee is much better than the Forester was, at least so far.
Thank you John. Very informative video. Overall, how does Jeep Cherokee 2015 compare to similar cars such as Hyundai Santa Fe, Tucson and also Kia Sportage and Sorento? Thanks a lot.
Thank you John. It seems though some owners have been complaining about Jeep Cherokee's transmission. Any thoughts? Thanks again, I much appreciate it.
The gas mileage in this car isn't that bad. I own the 2015 model with the V6 and 4x4. I came from a Toyota Rav4 with the V6 I got about 22 combined and maybe 24 on the highway. I get the same mileage in my Cherokee Limited.

no transmission issues?
Just call it a Jeep for god sake. And yes, it has Polarizing looks that you may not appreciate, but look at how many thousands of people love it.

awesome review , you were a big help in my decision to buy

MightyRostam The Cherokee is a great SUV with more off road capability than the other's you mentioned.
Thank you John. It seems though some owners have been complaining about Jeep Cherokee's transmission. Any thoughts? Thanks again, I much appreciate it.
MightyRostam They did have some problems early on but to my knowledge they have been fixed. the last one I drove was fine and shifted well.
Great news, thanks a lot John. I'm actually planning on buying one. Thanks again for your feedback and great videos. Wish you all the best :-)
Did you end up buying one?
back seats fold down?

Great review on a great vehicle!
Wish it had an option for 19" wheels on the upper level trim like the Escape and CX5.
Why? I wish my Limited comes with 17" wheels instead of 18". It is better for off-roading. This is a Jeep after all!
Very informative review! Thanks heaps!
That was a very nice review Sir, I liked it!
Does it have android auto
Should put the more traditional jeep headlights on all of the lineup. Call it FCA. They also own Alfa Romeo and Maserati.
love mine
***** What don't you like about this car? I'm actually looking into getting one. Thank you.
thank you for the review. Personally I would never buy a Jeep or Chrysler vehicle as they are prone to transmission problems.
Wish 8.7 inches was standard and th was 10 inches.
He seems bothered as to whom owns the company. But hey! They just may make it a better company. Have to see...
At 50,000 miles you will have l lot of problems with the car. This is not a good buy.
Tariq Sabir like what
those slit ugly headlights ruin it. reason I'm getting a grand Cherokee
