I have a 2015 jeep cherokee trailhawk 3.2 liter 6 cylander, with 98,000 miles on it. It has had noises in front end going over bumps. I replaced 2 control arm, ball joints, shocks. Dealer ship says engine mount is loose. Mechanic says drive shaft is loose. It makes a metal on metal sound on driver front wheel when hard excelerate or goes into deep hole.
I like my car but the road is killing it. Should I continue to put money into fixing it (the dealership wanted 8 grand!) or invest in a different vehicle that will last longer on 6 miles of daily wash board? What vehicles are best for those types of roads? Even if its an older one. Not sure I trust new cars right now.
It's always cheaper to keep 'er. $8K is just insanity. For that price, you should be able to get a new engine and a new front end.
That's what I thought, I needed oil change I wasn't in a car accident.
