from Doan Jeep Rochester
Year / Model Reviewed: 2002 Jeep Liberty
Strengths: Power, comfort and Jeep strenght
Weaknesses: Gas mileage, after 2500 miles only 17.5 per gallon average
Summary: Very nice SUV outstanding fit and finish and good powertrain. I''ve owned several 4-wheel drive vehicles and still own a chev extended cab 4x4. The jeep is first class, I bought the limited loaded with tow package, select-trac, and off road package. It pulls my 3000lb boat nicely (but not like my v8 truck. The interior is well laid out and the power seats are very comfortable. I am kind of a car nut (I own five), so before I buy anything I research and drive everything. There is no other mid size SUV comes close, I drove the Escape, Xterra, Hyundai and rav four. The Jeep is in a class of it''s own. I liked the Xterra except you set on the floor with no power seat option, and with 170hp the engine is too weak for towing even though Nissan claims a 5000lb tow capacity.
Good job D/B!

from Gene Messer, Amarill
Strengths: High clearance, big 6 cyl 4.0 engine, unique looks, 50+ years experience in building 4X4's, price.
Weaknesses: Lots of road, wind and engine noise gets through. Limited [passenger and cargo room.
Summary: If you enjoy the sound of rushing wind and the roar of a good engine on the open highway, (with the windows up) this car's for you! We bought the Cherokee Sport 4X4 and other than being very noisy in the cabin, I can't complain. Hey, its a JEEP, not a luxury car. You just have to know that. This is the last of the Cherokees and the only year model that Consumer Reports likes. Mine has been trouble free for 27,000 miles except for a faulty sensor in the fuel tank that was repaired.

Strengths: Nice curb appeal,plenty of comfort from the quality leather seats.Mileage around 20.ample room,good towing characteristics.A comfortable ride
Weaknesses: Chrysler does not have the expertise to manufacture an operatable window.No company support or accountability.
Summary: Was happy enough with comfort and service to consider trading in for a new model.However now that a front and rear window have fallen down and the repair is going to be 400.00 each.Needless to say I will not be purchasing a new Chrysler product.For a company that spends millions of dollars on advertising to gain new customers you would think that it might be in their best interest to take care of their current ones.I guess now that they have what use to be the most reliable Mercedes-Benz cars,the Chryslers can go back to being the same old junk that they use to be.It`s a real shame that that they are dragging the good Jeep trademark down with it.
