2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Review--Lot's of choices 

Is it just me, or all reviews now are homogeneous and just a big list of specs. Not knocking this video, i just hear a lot of “car is great” and “one of the best in the segment” in 99% of reviews. They can’t all be “one of the best”

I’ve had my 2019 Jeep Trailhawk since September 2018. I’m not much of a “car” guy but I’ll tell you this car is amazing! Super comfortable, tons of power and absolutely seemless shifting! Someone even said the rims looks cheap, are you kidding, the rims are beautiful and when you drive it over rough roads it feels super solid! I have no regrets buying this vehicle! How can anyone say this is an ugly vehicle, the inside being black leather with deep red accents is beautiful! I think a lot of these negative comments come from jealous people, take one for a week and tell me you don’t love it!

♥️ my 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk with a 4cyl turbo. I had the 2014 for 5 years and that was great but the 2019 is much improved. The transmission, power and handling. On and off-road I love the vehicle. I had no issues with my 2014 besides needing a new battery. So far so good with my 2019.

My 2015 Cherokee Trailhawk has practically everything he talks about here. So not much has changed other than the nose shape. I prefer the original rugged front. I will be keeping my American built Cherokee. 👍👍

The Trailhawk looks the BEAST! Great job Jeep !

I wanted the Cherokee Trailhawk, but went with the Compass. Not a goo decision. The Jeep dealer was selling a used 2017 Cherokee Trailhawk in white for $17,000. I passed it up. Now I wished I had stayed to make a deal.

I does sound great. I love that sound first thing in the morning going up a hill just ripping

You missed one very critical feature. Its FCA garbage that will fall apart after 3-4 years of use.

Just had a 2019 Cherokee Trailhawk out for a test drive , during the drive the drivers side window guard detached from the car and got ran over by a truck behind me on the TCH , The hood would lift every time i met a large vehicle or there was a gust of wind. then the start stop engine feature stopped working and gave a warning light . The turbo 2.0L engine had good power but sounded thrashy .I am thinking that quality control isn't a huge priority at Jeep . Pretty disappointed , i wanted to like it but with a sticker price of close to 50k Jeep needs to do much better imho

Looks cheap now, front end looks cheap, rims look cheap, I'll keep my 2017!!

I suppose we’ll never see another Cherokee Wagoneer. I owned and loved that model. Essentially...a Limited model with wood paneling! I believe mine was called a Briarwood. Although tacky today... Jeep truly had a unique look. Unlike this current model... aside from that (odd) new front.... it now looks like every other mid sized Utility.... except with FCA’s infamous build quality. Thanks for the video Zack.

Nothing on the transmission? That’s one of the large negative things about this vehicle, surprised there was no mention of it.

I bought 2019 and at 5000 miles it sits at the dealer with manufacturer's best engineers trying to fix it. Day 15 at time of post. Beware of the bells and whistles and transmission

Why didn’t they put the 2.0 turbo 270 hp engine into the Jeep renegade? That would of made it way better , dam chrystler are not using their brains

I got sucked into buying one of these because I liked the look and it was the only small SUV that comes with a V6 so I can tow my boat. Shortly after my warranty was over the exhaust snapped in half rotten out. The front and rear brakes were worn down to the calipers at 30,000 miles. I paid alot of money for this machine, the quality is disgusting.

I love this jeep, however a lot of these new features for 2019 I have in my 2014 Ford Escape SE...

I liked the old controversial look of previous model i think it has a character on its own esp.the trailhawk trim,

Reliability is the issue here, otherwise it’s a nice vehicle

All of the complaints about the Cherokee, the video, and Jeeps in general... and nobody mentions the apostrophe?

The biggest issue with this vehicle since it was introduced was the poor transmission performance and reliability. I understand the reliability is not a topic addressed during your reviews but not making any mention if the erratic transmission shifting has been resolved is a big oversight.

Jeep is great I love it but the shit part is it starts having problems when it gets old, at least it’s good first three years of its life while you have the warranty although this trailhawk does give you sports car feel

Hey Zack, I think it would be more appropriate to the Canadian public, when it comes to the boot size to say - "you can fit in easily a set of hockey sticks" instead of golf clubs... I mean who plays golf in Canada?

everyone does stupid tech features... how about put over 200k on it see if its still a "great" vehicle"

What’s the back seat space like? Can it fit rear facing car seats?

Zach I disagree It's true Jeep might be the first SUV,but Jeep did not start the SUV craze. Ford did,with the Ford Explorer. The explorer did so well, it's quickly become one of the most successful model in Ford history. Like always your reviews are amazing.

If I were to get a Cherokee, I would get the Trailhawk even though I don't go off-roading. My area could get a lot of snow. So the extra ground clearance is nice to have. Also I like the black unpainted front and rear bumpers. Unpainted bumpers should hold up a lot better to everyday bumps and dings than painted bumpers found in other Cherokee models. Plus the lower profile front bumper should handle deep unplowed snow better than the standard bumper. And the off-road oriented tires should handle the snow and potholes better than the ones found in the non Trailhawk models.

I have a TH Elite from 8 miles to 49158 miles no troubles really just a ghost in the radio that freezes out any control of volume or change stations No light in center armrest and the cut out for phone charger cords should be moved from the side to front. No light under the hood and the rear cargo area needs better locations for the lights. The touch screen controls are too small and placed too close to others. Pretty cool you can turn on the rear camera while driving. lol

Such a shame about the poor design and reliability issues still havnt fixed in the newer models. Such an amazing car. I love the versatility the look but the constant reports of same issues has put me off. I don't get why companies don't do anything about this. Range Rover is exactly the same people love the brand why not invest in really ironing out the issues and dealing with it.

Did you actually get 10.4 l/100km city and 7.8 l/100km highway in the 3.2l Trailhawk during your test?

Where the heck did "All New!" get started with respect to advertising cars. Geez, I'm getting sick of hearing it, and it apparently means nothing most of the time.

The issue is the horrid 9 speed auto and It is still present in this update. The ZF box is flawed in design so no matter how many software updates they give it, the box will always be the problem

When I was in the market for another Jeep after my GC was wrecked I had to choose between the Cherokee and Compass. What is interesting is the Compass looks like a baby Grand Cherokee. Although I like my Compass, I think if I had to do it again it would go with the Cherokee Trailhawk.

What's the name of the tire/rim design on the Trailhawk in this video?

Reliability?

Man I’d do anything for Firecracker Red it sure as hell bears Velvet Red think I found one hope the deal goes great

Nice video, lots of info! This is one of three cars my wife wants , though not the Trailhawk version. My biggest concern is really the transmission. There was a lot talk two years ago about how "jumpy" it was. And while I know this transmission can be found in other manufacturer's vehicles, the complaints all seemed to be from Cherokee owners. I definitely will wait a few months to see what people say about the 2019.

Where can I buy these running boards/rock rails?

Nice car

the folding seatbacks in the rear look more like a 70/30 split. But saying that, a good and fair review.

This is their trail hawk edition? Looks like it can’t get over a curb

Been enjoying my 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Elite since March 2018. Estimate off pavement exploring 2-4 days a month where I've occasionally used 4low to get where I was going, mostly around Death Valley, CA & NV. Off pavement, had no trouble navigating through deep mud (12" or so), steep grades with mud and loose rock, stock tires have been reliable traversing extremely rough terrain with sharp rocks, etc. Very pleased with its performance, on road and off, never had any transmission issues. Couple weeks ago, drove through a blinding Death Valley sandstorm. As I was about to drive clear of all the blasting sand and dust, several warning indicators (collision avoidance, adaptive cruise control, lanesense) began flashing on the dashboard. Pulled over and found the primary sensor below the front bumper coated in dust with a flattened insect. Used a damp tissue to wipe it clean. All systems returned to normal. That event was the only time I experienced any sort of performance issue with my Jeep. Very pleased with this comfortable and reliable 4x4 vehicle.

They should have dropped the fucking 9speed crappy transmission.... I love my Cherokee TH 2014 except for the deal breaker Transmission and some ultra annoying quality issues in the electronics...

Would be nice if you spoke about the American stats as well such as gas mileage in gallons.

No mention of the ZF9 transmission that has numerous lawsuits, recalls, TSBs, and just plain doesn't work?

Great vehicle.

I was so close to getting this car, but came across and test drove a Colorado zr2. Very happy I decided not to get the Jeep .

Zack can u plz review Grand cherokee Trackhawk. :)

Is it me or does it sit lower than the 2018's?

Volume knob?

LOVE MY 2017 RAV4 ,RELIABLE , MADE IN CANADA ,GOOD REVIEW .

I hear they are great...looking to buy one

Very nice looking vehicle

Merica!! Jerp is killin it

👍👍👍 Great Review👍👍😎😎

Is this the Trailhawk, or Trailhawk Elite?

I just trade my challenger for this car.

I never thought I would fall in love with a Jeep 😍

As a Toronto driver (big city), I'm annoyed with this car. Seems like city slicker mistakenly think Trailhawk means Sport, cause they're hugging the fast lane. Which isn't a big deal, but this crap doesn't have any mud card, which means they're pelting stones at you while going too slow for the fast lane. I give this vehicle no respect on the highway.

Lot's of choices?

They just need to get rid of or improve that annoying transmission!

They have a big issues with the transmission. Not recommended, do your research before purchasing.

Wheres the cherokee I just see a fiat

I DEEPLY REGRET buying my 2020 Cherokees. Learn from my MISTAKES. My 1st 2020 Cherokee was a lemon and my 2nd 2020 Cherokee was not built right and neither Jeep or the selling dealer Bob Poynter Columbus will make it right . BUYER BEWARE do NOT BUY a Cherokee or trust a Jeep dealer. Just Empty Every Pocket is a TRUE acronym.

Wow! I'm impressed Zack used the imperial system in this video👍Btw great video and SUV.

As parts fall off it and you sit in the dealerships for hours and hours.

Add!

What Color is that? I do not see on the website build page?

Shit 9 speed and a 2.4 that burns oil

Nice fiat !

This Grand Cherokee is a great jeep but I still don't understand why they don't come with a CD player. Hypercars like McLarens, Lamborghinis, Aston Martins even Bugattis come with CD players, yet the Jeep does not? I had buy the Toyota Highlander instead of the Jeep because the Jeep didn't come with a CD player. A highlander is a great crossover SUV.

I got stuck today in a measly 6 inch snow drift ice fishing today in my 2014 trail hawk on 4wd low. Thought this thing was “trail rated”??

Supposedly the zf 9 speed transmission was fixed in 2018. I hope so because transmission is just as important as the engine.
