Although performance and reliability reviews for newer Jeep models are somewhat positive, the Grand Cherokee remains one of the most problematic Jeep models due to electrical issues in earlier years. Here are the four most common Jeep Grand Cherokee issues:
If you own a Jeep Grand Cherokee, be aware of these common problems. It might make sense to sell your Jeep Grand Cherokee rather than fixing these issues.
Replacing the engine in a Jeep Grand Cherokee can be a significant expense, influenced by several key factors. Older models often have less expensive replacement engines due to simpler designs and more readily available parts. The specific engine type, such as a 4-cylinder, V6, or V8, also impacts the cost, with more powerful engines generally being more expensive to replace. Labor costs vary by location and shop, ranging from $500 to $2,000 or more. The condition of the replacement engine, whether new, remanufactured, or used, affects the overall cost, with new engines being the most expensive.
The chart below provides estimates for these costs across different CR-V generations, using data gathered from trusted sources like RepairPal and AutoZone.

Additional costs may arise from necessary related repairs or parts, such as new hoses, belts, or cooling system components. Location plays a role, as labor and parts costs can differ significantly between urban and rural areas. Engines with a warranty may cost more upfront but offer potential savings on future repairs. On average, a Jeep Grand Cherokee engine replacement costs between $3,000 and $6,000, including parts and labor, though this range varies based on the aforementioned factors.

A scrap Grand Cherokee still has value. You can get payment for your salvage vehicle by selling it to a junk car buyer like CarBrain.
Junk buyers can properly recycle the metals and pieces inside the car, including steel, aluminum and more. Your car's size and where the car is at the moment will both affect the estimate you receive. Nearby market prices change frequently, which will affect how much you get — but in general, you can get anywhere from $100 to $600 or more from your scrap car.
