This Overland is simply AWESOME. I just took delivery on my 2015 model today and the ACC is a lot of fun to play with watching it coasting behind the car in front of me without touching the brakes and it resumed all buy itself without touching the gas pedal. That is pretty cool! I was depressed emptying out my 2003 Overland…But I got over it real quick driving this new one off the lot. It's the shiznit. Great Video Review!
I quite like this new Grand Cherokee. I got the chance to ride in one (granted I didn't get to drive it) and I fell in love with it. Very quiet and well put together interior and the Pentastar V6 has a surprising amount of thrust, but I suspect the 8-speed helps keep the revs where they need to be.
I cried at the end. I’m a die hard chrysler fan and have been since I was 5. What he said at the very end broke me, how just a few years ago it was supposed to be no Chrysler at all and now that they were given another chance, look at the products they've introduced. It’s simply ground breaking, from the Sebring to the 200 from the 2010 grand Cherokee to the 2018 from the caliber to the dart from the patriot to the renegade , from the old compass to the new compass from the town and country to the Pacifica its all great great great work. Well don’t FCA I’m proud.
I enjoy your rather creative take on these car reviews; especially the puns and references that sometimes have nothing to do with automobiles. I suspect some thanks may be in order for your writers, directors, and PR honchos. This model is definitely a bright star in Chrysler's less-than-brilliant lineup. See what I did there:-)? Keep up the great work!
I have seen a half dozen reviews by a half dozen different people and none of them have demonstrated one important feature of the Overland or the Summit. That feature is the POWER FOLDING OUTSIDE MIRRORS. A good feature to use in tight spaces like a small garage etc.
Bought a brand new 2014 Jeep Grand Overland Diesel August 30, 2014 that has been in the shop for four times for a total of 15 days. Shifting problems that the dealership SAID they fixed (still not working properly), Navigation stopped working, air suspension overheats, Radio problems, master window switch broken, glove box rod bent so the glove box didn't lock or close properly, I have it set up when the Jeep is turned off the the steering wheel moves up then when you start the Jeep again it goes back down that only works half the time.
I love the look of the car, I have been thinking about to buy it for over a year, but every time I check the reviews on different sites it looks like they are having the same issues like yours that stops me to do it. Good luck.
The background image on the uConnect screen can be changed, there are about a dozen different options so if you don't like the dried skin look you can pick something else :) thanks for the review!
Very hardy SUV and reliable !! I have a request if you are in contact with representatives of a Jeep, then tell them for Russia they made the most reliable jeep! There is one Jeep Grand Cherokee in 2013 with a 3.6 engine, it has a mileage of almost 800,000 thousand kilometers or 497,096,954 thousand miles !! Not a problem except a broken gearbox !!
Useful review, thanks. It would be interesting if you did some reviews comparing similar vehicles at this price point. As an example, at $50K; how would this Overland compare to a BMW X5 or an an Audi 4X4 ?
Instead of focusing on providing more and relevant info, this man tries to be way too poetic. How the drive and handling (two different things) compares hasn't been covered. Vague statements like "this car drives nearly (!) as nice as it's cabin". Such a statement is simply useless. Nor has boot space been addressed or space on the backseats. Long range tests (are the seats really good?), shock absorption and suspension, seat adjustments, user-friendlessness of info-system, weight, and you name it. Lot of info missing. And then there's that weird statement of its acceleration (is a little bit tepid?). Just a little bit huh? What does that mean? Again a statement which leaves you guessing. But as the tachometer needle is pointing upward the pace goes up? What? Just provide the facts man. If I need poetry I'll read a book not written by Autoguide personnel..
I always laugh when anyone comments on a vehicles AUTOshift control lever/knob... saying it's "too fiddly" for example here in this video. I've never had a problem ever driving vehicles and I've likely driven nearly 100 different model vehicles over the years... besides, manual transmissions are "fiddly"... Auto transmissions require you to know how to use them.... no different than an clutch and stick shift... or a TV remote....
There is swidish review of this car, they call it the worst most insecure car they have reviewed in 20 years... Look for it if you think to buy this car
There is also Swedish review that calls it excellent, so what?. It is all competition, of course they are going to bash another brand. There are good and bad reviews of any car out there. I prefer to read owners reviews to help with my final decision.
That review was for 2012. The Swedish "Moose test" review for 2014 said the JGC handled the test perfectly. www.autoblog.com/2014/01/02/updated-2014-jeep-grand-cherokee-passed-controversial-moose-test-video/
Lol at all the "chest beating Knuckle dragging macho men" in the comments. Leave this guy alone, you're just jealous because your life sucks and he gets paid (probably more than you) to review cars. I still love my GC Limited 4x4 Eco-Diesel. It's a luxurious beast!
I own an Overland 4x2 One I find it rather noisy at Highway speeds needs some mor sound deadening material and should have opted for Michelin Tires. Watch the Dealer add ons and Capital Cost - that majic $ 5000 increase to my Lease was no where near Jeeps Advertised prices..
I don't understand the connection to 50G and a 4runner... If you want to drive a 4 runner because it's a better off road vehicle with more interior space... just say that. Because I don't think that $5000 more for a Grand Cherokee Overland compared to a Top 4runner is anywhere NEAR enough to complain about. Especially since other than off road performance and cargo space, the GC literally does everything else better... for only $5000 more.
Best infotainment system in the business. This will be a maintenance money pit. If you want one LEASE one. Buy out the lease, dump it on consignment lot and pocket some money on the back end. Repeat.
The reviewer is trying to hard to hack the guy from Motortrend or Motorweek, whatever it is, television....Go find your own style dude, it doesn't fit you.
This Overland is simply AWESOME.

Great Video Review!
MrTanker10a how has your Jeep been treating you the past four years? Still reliable?
Yeah, how did it hold up?
update Mr Tanker! are you eating these words?
Give this guy a cheeseburger with extra cheese
+kamal deep Sidhu better give him captain america's enhancements
So he can look like every other fat yank?
😂
He looks like Chris Evans in Captain America before he gets the transformation process. :-)
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 lmao funny
Not enough credit for how clever 4:31 was. Very well played.
Am definitely thinking of buying this SUV for sure! I did some looking around on other SUVs and this Grand Cherokee seems to beat it all!
This guy does some amazing reviews! Much better then Almost any other car reviews on RUclips
wait who is Chris Harris?
+Marcello Graziani not a good as Brian Cooley from CNET On Cars.
The music and the sarcasm/puns. Amazing. 5 stars.

I like this guy reviewer. He reminds me of someone in Hollywood
AutoGuide hardly has any bad car reviews. Canada represent!

My favorite car 🚗
I love Jeep.
In just to say this reviewer and the review were informative and hilarious! All of you haters are just mean and wrong!
This guy has a shoddy sense of humor
In my country (Dominican Republic) the price for de GC overland 2014 is 71000 dollars .
I have seen a half dozen reviews by a half dozen different people and none of them have demonstrated one important feature of the Overland or the Summit. That feature is the POWER FOLDING OUTSIDE MIRRORS. A good feature to use in tight spaces like a small garage etc.
Because that is old tech from almost two decades ago
The reviewer looks like Napoleon Dynamite's lost brother!

I love how the Jeeps look, but I didn't purchase one because of exactly the reasons you are describing, huge reliability issues.
I love the look of the car, I have been thinking about to buy it for over a year, but every time I check the reviews on different sites it looks like they are having the same issues like yours that stops me to do it. Good luck.
You again....stop pasting your comments in every jeep video , fuckin loser
Don't worry it is still better than Land Rover's.
It looks sick asf idc 127K miles with $15k price it’s worth it
I just picked one up with 108k miles at $16.5k. Base model.
How has it been for you guys? Looking forward to to get one soon
The background image on the uConnect screen can be changed, there are about a dozen different options so if you don't like the dried skin look you can pick something else :) thanks for the review!
You can do this in the screen setting on the jeep?
yup you can
idk about the other parts of the car, bu I really like its shape/design
lmaoooo that laugh at 2:00
I have one of these, super nice car! I don't see why people don't like the shifter, its fine?
It is taking some time to get used to. I feel like I keep going over reverse. After you get the hang of it, it could be fine.
that shifte killed the star trek actor, that is why it is controversial
“ I buy my clothes always 5 sizes too large”
Better than the Range Rover.
Range sucks
Very hardy SUV and reliable !!
I have a request if you are in contact with representatives of a Jeep, then tell them for Russia they made the most reliable jeep!
There is one Jeep Grand Cherokee in 2013 with a 3.6 engine, it has a mileage of almost 800,000 thousand kilometers or 497,096,954 thousand miles !! Not a problem except a broken gearbox !!
Dude I love your commentary lmao
awesome! love the overland package!
Quite well spruced up...I like it!...NICE REVIEW! Thanks.
this guy touched me
#MeToo
Interesting review, love the car.
I love the reviewer, and the Jeep!
Nice truck, but some of the most uncomfortable seats I have ever sat in, in my life.
His punch lines are too much.
Love this guy great review😀
yeah...this guy has "interesting" jokes lol.
awesome review!
it is amasing
Good car, reviewer needs some work though
This guy is actually the best reviewer in AutoGuide. The others are either extremely harsh and picky or have a really bad lisp.
The review was well done. Not a fan about how you think your time is more important than anyone else's @1:20
Useful review, thanks. It would be interesting if you did some reviews comparing similar vehicles at this price point. As an example, at $50K; how would this Overland compare to a BMW X5 or an an Audi 4X4 ?
at 4:30 he's talking about the SRT and a semi comes along saying SRT...
nice review
Am I supposed to take this guy's advice about what is stylish???
If you mind me asking, what kind of video camera was used to record this review?
Great review
This guy is the young version of T-bag...

1:20 Save your time and more importantly mine...huh? Was that just an insult? LOL
As soon as I heard the GarageBand music, I stopped watching. I'm sure it was a good review tho
Yea right "chinese buffet", great comparison....
these go for under $30k used now
This jeep is built off the same platform as the Mercedes M class designed when
MB partnered with Chrysler.
Hi. I like them Jeep
Leather Dash ? Look at the Porsche 928 Dash and decide if this is a good thing.

TheLordnorfolk good they fix it... shouldn't have happened in the first place, do you know if they recalled 2012 models?
***** No recalls because there was no problem, the truck was not used properly or in the same way as the others in the 2012 test
He gets offensive at times. Chinese buffet? Really?
😅
I have that same jeep
good for you
Thanks
Fantastic vehicle.. Reviewer is such a tryhard. Lose the gimmicks of your presentation, and the weird 80's crime drama music in the beginning.
this guy is funny
Lol at all the "chest beating Knuckle dragging macho men" in the comments. Leave this guy alone, you're just jealous because your life sucks and he gets paid (probably more than you) to review cars. I still love my GC Limited 4x4 Eco-Diesel. It's a luxurious beast!
Absolutely hilarious love the video great commentator #funny
My mom has one
Didn't know Americans can be skinny
this guy needs wearable update.
Probably offended some with the Chinese food comments
I didn't know Yanks could be thin
2:02 lol
This suv is phenomenal but this guy..... this review! its just simply dreadful!
But my has the 5.7 Hemi V8
I own an Overland 4x2 One I find it rather noisy at Highway speeds needs some mor sound deadening material and should have opted for Michelin Tires. Watch the Dealer add ons and Capital Cost - that majic $ 5000 increase to my Lease was no where near Jeeps Advertised prices..
He didn't have friends in high school....
Maybe not, but it looks like he's doing quite well for himself now.
Kristofer Christensen How would you know?
thats exactly what i thought
It is 180.000 RS
A knock-off terrain response stolen from Land Rover you gotta be shitting me Chrysler...
Poor mans Rover.
80's porn music? Yew!
for 50gs!! i pick a 4RUNNER any day!!!
I don't understand the connection to 50G and a 4runner...
If you want to drive a 4 runner because it's a better off road vehicle with more interior space... just say that.
Because I don't think that $5000 more for a Grand Cherokee Overland compared to a Top 4runner is anywhere NEAR enough to complain about. Especially since other than off road performance and cargo space, the GC literally does everything else better... for only $5000 more.
Imovie music
I just hate that they made the center of the dash look like the shape of an underwear.

Great looking, great driving car....unreliable as shit
Best infotainment system in the business. This will be a maintenance money pit. If you want one LEASE one. Buy out the lease, dump it on consignment lot and pocket some money on the back end. Repeat.

Won't be long before you are in the repair shop.
So. Much. Cheese.
Jeep is now Italian Fiat 's not American Chrysler 's any more.
Not true. Don't state false statements...
2:01
bad reviewer.
GMC copy
who is this comic wanna be?
This guy jokes about Nazis WTF...
Only a spastic would think a jeep is a good car
So, why are you here?
+hari sablay to see what 'pro reviewers' said about it maybe?
+hari sablay Because, spastics can't help themselves... :-\
He's so annoying. 🤕

Omg this guy … lame AF I can’t even watch
