Soft or spongy brake pedal
Air in the hydraulic brake lines can cause the brake pedal to feel soft or spongy.
Brake fade
Overheating from aggressive driving or worn brake components can reduce braking efficiency.
Warped brake rotors
Overheating and heavy use can cause the brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations when braking.
Abs (anti-lock braking system) issues
Faulty sensors or electronic control unit (ECU) problems can impair the ABS functionality.
Oil leaks
V8 engines, especially older models, are prone to oil leaks from gaskets and seals.
Engine misfires
Ignition coil failures, spark plug issues, or fuel injector problems can cause engine misfires.
Cooling system problems
V8 engines generate a lot of heat, and issues with the radiator, water pump, or thermostat can lead to overheating.
Timing chain or belt wear
Over time, the timing chain or belt can wear out, leading to potential engine timing issues.
Fuel system issues
Problems with the fuel pump, fuel filter, or fuel injectors can disrupt engine performance.
Exhaust manifold cracks
V8 engines can develop cracks in the exhaust manifold, leading to exhaust leaks and reduced performance.
Transmission problems
The 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee can experience transmission issues such as slipping, hard shifting, or failure, especially in high-mileage vehicles.
Suspension wear
