Early reports, warranty breakdown, and what to know before factory coverage runs out
The 2024 Jeep Cherokee is a rare bird. With production winding down, it was built in very limited numbers, mostly for fleets and special-order buyers. But for those who snagged one, it’s still a capable SUV with Jeep’s signature 4x4 confidence and a familiar layout.
So how reliable is the final model year, and how long will the warranty protect it?

2024 Jeep Cherokee Reliability Snapshot
Owner feedback is minimal due to low production, but based on carryover systems from previous years, the same issues may still appear.
Known Issues
- Slow Uconnect response or random reboots
- Sensor errors (blind spot, lane keep, tire pressure)
- Rearview camera freezing when shifting into reverse
- Faulty HVAC temperature sensors
- Early battery wear in cold climates
- Minor trim rattle around center stack
- Occasional oil pressure warnings that resolve after software updates
The powertrain remains strong, but tech-related issues are still worth watching—especially with fewer service resources dedicated to a model in phase-out.
Who Should Consider an Extended Plan?
With the 2024 Cherokee likely to be the final production year, parts and dealer familiarity may wane. Extended coverage offers long-term peace of mind.
Perfect fit for:
- Fleet buyers or high-mileage commuters
- Owners of Trailhawk models
- Drivers in regions with harsh winters
- Anyone planning to keep the SUV for 100,000+ miles
