5 Things I Hate About My 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee

After hearing the word machine so many times, I was anticipating an appearance by Maximus Prime.

To program the garage remote, just press the button you want to use with your garage remote at the same time. Works perfect. I just did it with my 2023 Overland Grand Cherokee. No need to press all three buttons at the same time to get into the programing mode.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

I appreciate the info, unfortunately still haven’t had any luck with mine. Thanks for watching!

[@andylomerson2797]

I was gonna pop on here and say the same thing. We have side by side garage doors and using Damian’s method, easily programmed both doors. Just hold one button and hold your garage button (the remote) down until stuff stops flashing!

[@67daltonknox]

Some door openers use a code that changes after each use, to stop crooks from memorizing your code as you drive into your home.

[@HAbill]

I just followed the instructions in the manual for rolling codes and it worked fine.

[@anthonygray333]

Love our new GC Summit 4XE. Cut fuel use way down while still giving us the ability to go on trips without worrying about range anxiety. And my friend the Range Rover owner is impressed.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

They really are hard to beat all around.

[@Winglet520]

They built a new multi-billion dollar plant to build the new Grand Cherokee. So, it has me optimistic they’re serious about quality. They really invested a lot in their latest generation suv.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

Once they get the process down pat maybe you will be right! Thanks for watching!

[@savage_n_texas656]

3:24 Rocky Road Outfitters offers a kit for the WL models and claims their lifts are all bolton. No cutting, welding, drilling is required. Since their lift height is no taller than the air-ride suspension at full height, no compromise in the factory warranty either. Their deluxe 2.5” kit includes F/R wheel spacer system for fitting many tire models up to 33" .

[@GodspeedZRZ]

Wow that sounds amazing! I can’t wait to look them up! Thanks for the information, Godspeed brother!

[@djpangburn7505]

Not being able to fit off-road tires on this new GC is a dealbreaker for me. What the hell was Jeep thinking? I know that many people use the GC for a daily driver, but a ton of people use them for adventure and off-roading.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

I completely agree, I believe we will have some aftermarket work arounds soon! Thanks for watching, Godspeed brother!

Does the Trailhawk have this same issue?

[@GodspeedZRZ]

It sure does

[@studiowishbone]

I have the 2022 TRAILHAWK,,, its right the in the name.. I was bummed to find out I cant put bigger TRAILTIRES on my TRAILHAWK. The spindle design is a flaw... a big one.

[@breahanapummill6987]

I just got an 24 overland 4xE and it’s wonderful. Took by the wrangler for a smoother luxury upgrade. The garage door thing had two ways of doing it. So maybe yours was the more complicated one because mine was.

That’s awesome, I hope you enjoy it!

[@batmanbags7651]

I just love my JGC 2023 Limited with the Blackout appearance I’ve only had it for a few months and so far no problems. The only thing that I hate is the dinging when you park and shut it off reminding me to check the backseat 🤬

Some garage door openers require you to press and hold the transmit button on the garage door opener main motor first, then press button in car. Can’t remember the exact steps.

I appreciate the help, I have tried a few different ways and still have had no luck haha thanks for watching!

[@corinnesalazar2720]

Programmed garage door today you do the first step you talked about THEN you run to your garage and do the garage motor link run back to car and hold button down twice, 2 seconds each time

[@GodspeedZRZ]

Thank you for that, I will try it out! Thank you for watching!

[@treydrier3169]

I have the GC Summit and it has an engine cover. Not sure why Stellantis cheaped out on the Limited. As far as the garage door opener goes, you should be able to easily program it using the ceiling mounted garage door motor/light housing. There's a button on it you press, then go to the car and press the button you want to program and they sync up. Its very easy. As far as the color goes, I agree. I owned a black car once. Never again. Impossible to keep clean. White is actually the best for not showing dirt and then grey. Also, the GC Summit has air suspension that works very nicely. I believe at that highest level it lifts the GC up to 13 inches. I also really enjoy the rear view mirror camera and the FLIR night vision. I still own a 2019 Grand Cherokee Limited with only 30k miles on it (it has an engine cover) and I'm giving it to my daughter.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

Thanks for the info and thanks for watching!

[@Johnnnnyyy24]

I have to agree with the black exterior. Personally I thought black with the altitude package looked the best and it’s virtually impossible to keep clean. Overall I like the car after 2 months of having it. Any suggestions for keeping it clean? I refuse to take it through a car wash

[@GodspeedZRZ]

Other than ceramic coat or ppf there aren't many options other than leaving it in the garage haha

[@andylomerson2797]

Nice video. What you are basically saying is, there isn’t much wrong with your ride. I have a 2022 WL Trailhawk (gas powered, engine cover). Love it. It has an all black interior including the ceiling trim.I have an older friend who has your exact same ride. I don’t know why they made that upper interior trim beige. It shoulda been BLACK everywhere! 😊

My wife said she she couldn’t accelerate after driving a few miles down the road. Valet mode was on at first but then she made sure All the app functionalities regarding valet mode, speed, parameters and the other one (can’t recall the function at the moment) we’re all off. After that she drove a few miles and still had the issue. I saw something online that stated to hit the ignition then press the brake 10 x’s I don’t know if it resolved the issue but this all happened yesterday an hour after driving it off the lot. Do you know what could’ve cause that issue?

[@GodspeedZRZ]

The only thing I could think of is if it went into limp mode. I have had it happen on a wrangler before. The computer picked up a false code and limited the vehicle so it wouldn’t mess it up. Since it was a false code nothing came up on the dash. It was a weird situation but it does sound similar to your issue. I would definitely take to the dealer to let them look it over. Hope you get it resolved easily! Thanks for watching!

@Godspeed ZRZ dang. That sucks. I know Jeep pushed an update like 2 or 3 months ago that was supposed to fix some bugs. Maybe it couldn't hurt to get that and maybe just mention something to em when you do. See if they have any ideas... If you're worried about it... I know I would want it to work if it were me. Lol. It would bug the crap out of me...

Did you get the garage door opener programmed yet? I had the same issue and resolved it by holding the remote and car button at the same time, then going to the garage motor and hitting the learn button and then the car button until it flashes.

[@JCunningham21]

My 22 2 row $60k Overland is a nice $40k vehicle. 3.6L only gets 18mpg 22 highway. I can get that out of a 4x4 crew cab pick up with more tech for cheaper. The trade in value is the worst of any thing i ever bought. I wanted to trade mine in and go back to a full size truck 2 weeks after i bought it. Two different dealers offered me $42k for it. that was when you couldn't find these. I never lost that on anything and I trade in every 3 or 4 years.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

That is a scary trade value for sure, I haven’t tires this one out yet but I’m sure it will be in the 40s as well. I hope to keep this one at least a year or so haha Thanks for watching!

[@tx91791]

Wow. Being that I'm looking to buy one of these machines (not this specific model) soon you had me really needing to hear you out on this. Maybe the word "hate" is the wrong word. From my perspective the only gripe you have that's serious enough to hate, or is an unforseen issue is the garage door remote not working. I would hate that too.

[@jefferybaxter1225]

Hi there. Good tour video for your 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee in the Limited trim. Based on what I've seen the base trim up to the Limited trim doesn't come with the plastic engine cover. The Overland trim and above will come with the engine cover. In addition to that, the Overland trim and above will have the 5.7 liter HEMI V8 engine available as an option. In the middle of last month July, I was able to get the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. That one has the third row seating. I got mine in the Summit Reserve trim with the 5.7 liter HEMI V8 engine. Even though it's a third row seating vehicle, it doesn't drive or feel like a third row seating vehicle though. That's a clear indication Jeep did a great job with the overall weight distribution of the vehicle. Just like what was mentioned in this video, I don't like the exterior color for mine. The exterior color for mine is also in black. The body color description for mine is Diamond Black Crystal Pearl. I initially wanted it in the Midnight Sky Blue color, but that color wasn't available. That color is basically navy blue. The black one had the V8 engine, so I had to get that. However, within a year or two, I'll take vehicle to the dealership and have them strip off the Diamond Black Crystal Pearl color. Strip that color in order to change it to the Midnight Sky Blue body color I wanted originally. Between the 3.6 liter Pentastar V6 engine and the 5.7 HEMI V8 engine, I chose the 5.7 liter V8 for my 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L simply because my old Jeep Grand Cherokee which I still have has a V8 engine. Not only that between July of 2021 to January of last year 2022 I test drove the Jeep Grand Cherokee L three times. Twice with the V6 and once with the V8 within that span. Basically, it's a very notable night and day difference between those two engines. Instant acceleration with the V8 engine. Nice and quick. In addition to that, a nice lion or tiger roaring sound with the V8 engine. The V6 engine performance numbers are 293 horsepower along with 257 pound feet of torque. I think during a mid-cycle refresh of this vehicle, Jeep needs to increase the torque a little bit for the V6. At least to 265 or 270. The V8 performance numbers comes in at 357 horsepower along with an amazing 390 pound feet of torque. If Jeep plans to have performance models for either the Jeep Grand Cherokee or the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, more than likely the twin turbo Hurricane engine will be used for those. At the moment the Hurricane engine is optional for the bigger brother full size SUVs Jeep Wagoneer and Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Before I go, were you able to solve the issue with the garage door opener? If so, what was the cause of it not functioning?

I was seriously considering buying a 2023 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, but the loss of power now that the 5.7L Hemi is discontinued, and the inability to fit better (larger) tires has unfortunately taken it off my list. Although the interior is rubbish compared to the Grand Cherokee, it looks like I'll end up buying a 2023 Ford F150 Raptor because the ability to handle moderate trails is very important to me (unlike most buyers, who seem primarily to purchase for image rather than utility).

is the tires factory tiers ?? you have on and the issue that you kinda have at this moment is you want put bigger / wider tiers thats why you have issue with the Clarence correct,

It’s all factory right now, the suspension components are what is really limiting what size tires I can use on it.

I think the Grand Cherokee is a proven platform at this point. Engine has been used since 2012 trans since 2018. Every manufacturer has some issues with tech, unless you only update it once every 20 year “Toyota”…. But I live the Tacoma and 4 runner as well they are just pretty streamline.

We just bought a new 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Limited in Midnight Sky. I absolutely hate that uConnect 5 system--it sucks. The uConnect 4 on my 2022 Dodge Charger Scat Pack is so much easier to navigate through. Our Jeep was on the lot. It's got that aux screen up front for the passenger. What garbage; Jeep should of just put in a better sound system instead.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

I haven’t had great luck with Jeep Screens in the past either. Hope it’s gets better for you sounds like an amazing ride!

[@AStanton1966]

@@GodspeedZRZ We bought the car for my wife. Compared to my Scat Pack, in my opinion, the V-6 has no guts/sound and the brakes are terrible. Maybe I'm used to my Brembos on the Scat, I don't know. As for gas mileage, I always believed that there isn't much difference between a V-6 VS V-8 when you put any engine in these heavy vehicles--you get about the same mileage. I'm sorry we didn't get an Overland trim with the V-8. Too bad the Hemi's are going the way of the dinosaur!

[@GodspeedZRZ]

I couldn’t agree more haha

[@mikejautosandstuff3349]

I have a great idea , just pop off a 3.6 L challenger engine cover from the lot and put on the Jeep 👍 lol nobody will miss it! Well hell, as many mopar vehicles you have bought I THINK THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD JUST GIVE YOU ONE!! By the way my c8 doesn’t have an engine cover as well 😐 bc the hardtop convertible does not get one. I assume that’s because you can’t see the engine in the convertible version. And the engine compartment is sealed off for the convertible hardtop to be placed in.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

I didn’t know that about the C8! I do have an engine cover from my 2014 JK with the 3.6 but it’s no where close to fitting for some reason haha

You know Toyotas don’t have the issues you think is normal with vehicles that are new or old. Get a 4-Runner and or Tacoma and you will never take them to dealer for fixing. Also, new Grand Cherokee does not have good color selection. They need greens and beige. Black is terrible for keeping clean and scratch free as you found out.

[@GodspeedZRZ]

Black is the best looking color in the road when it’s clean but they are the hardest to keep clean. I sure hope Toyota doesn’t have most of the issues I’m talking about they make the same vehicle for 20 years… it’s easy to get it right 10 years after you release it. Thanks for watching!

[@paulm6481]

@@GodspeedZRZ 4 Runner and Tacoma are still selling in huge numbers. Yes that have been on the market for a while, but what is the point of redesign if the current gen works. Frankly, the older gen Grand Cherokee was a better realized vehicle. None of the cheap black piano inside that this gen has. Also that knob for changing transmission, just lol. Pathetic. But I understand what Fiat was doing. They want to leverage a platform that was developed for Maserati and Alfa, just not as solid a platform as the old Jeep/Mercedes platform.
