Jeep Grand Cherokee 2016

FROM $12,540

The 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee range of configurations is currently priced from $7,999.

Our most recent review of the 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee resulted in a score of 6.6 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Senior Journalist Laura Berry had this to say at the time: A Jeep Cherokee is not the default SUV choice like a Mazda or Toyota is for Australians, and there are those weird quirks, but buyers will be rewarded by an SUV which not only looks unique but is enjoyable to drive with its V6 engine and comfortable ride. Plus there’s the good value this 75th Anniversary Edition brings.

This is what Laura Berry liked most about this particular version of the Jeep Grand Cherokee: Great V6 engine, Good value, Comfortable seats

The 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee carries a braked towing capacity of up to 2268 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.

Jeep Grand Cherokee 2016 FAQs

2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee with extreme camshaft wear

Camshaft problems are, indeed, a known problem with the 3.6-litre V6 Jeep engine. It seems the roller bearings in the rockers can fail, and that, in turn, causes the camshaft lobes to wear very quickly. The first sign is a noisy engine that gets noisier as you rev it.

Jeep made several running changes to the engine to fix this, but even attempts as late as 2018 and 2019 didn’t seem to help much. Perhaps there’s a more robust rocker assembly available on the aftermarket that addresses the root cause of the problem, but for most owners, it’s new camshaft time once the noises start.

Replacement options for a 2005 Pathfinder?

You haven't given us the weight of the caravan you want to tow, which goes a long way to determining the best car for you. We'll err on the side of caution and go for cars with a towing capacity of at least 2500 kg that fall within your budget. It's always best to go for the latest model you can afford, which means around 2103 in your case. I'm guessing you're over the Pathfinder given your experience with the holed piston in your current car, but the Nissan is an option for you. So too are the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Mitsubishi Pajero, although the Pajero's rear suspension is prone to sagging when heavily loaded and I would rule that out on that basis. If you can stretch your budget a little you could consider the Landrover Discovery 4, which does everything you want well, but is the most expensive of this bunch. For me the pick of the bunch for me is the Toyota Prado, for performance, economy, and reliability. The only issue for you could be that the Prado's towing rating is 2500 kg, the lowest of the cars we mention here.

Suitable SUV to replace a Discovery 3?

There are plenty of SUV choices to look at, such as a Toyota Prado or Jeep Grand Cherokee. Both should serve your needs well.
