1991 Jeep Cherokee Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Jeep's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Jeep tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Cherokee’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Cherokee's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Jeep Cherokee transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Jeep. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Jeep Cherokee leak transmission fluid? Yes. Jeep Cherokee transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
