Known issues by generation
When considering the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, be aware of specific model-related issues that may impact its value and performance. The 6.2L supercharged Hemi V8 is known to experience potential snout-bearing failures in high-mileage models, and it’s essential to verify service history regarding MDS lifter recalls and necessary tick tests. The ZF-licensed 8HP70 transmission is robust but can face wear on the valve body in tuned vehicles. Other concerns include the potential for electronic LSD failure and the common warping of Brembo brakes on vehicles used in aggressive driving. It's crucial to assess these factors to ensure your Trackhawk remains a prime candidate for collectors.
