Jerry Burton decided to get a Jeep back in July 2000, and he bought a new 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport. In the thirteen years since that time, Jerry and his Jeep Cherokee Sport have driven over 415,000 miles together.
Jerry credits this success to regular maintenance - changing the oil and oil filter, replacing the air filter, and greasing the air filter. In fact, his check engine light didn't even come on until 414,489 miles! Here at Fields Chrysler Jeep Dodge Northfield, we agree that regular maintenance is key to the success of any vehicle.
As for advice for other drivers, here's what Jerry has to say:
"My advice to Jeep brand vehicle owners on how they should care for their vehicles would be to do preventive maintenance, wash the engine every so often, and often check things to catch a potential problem before it develops. My Cherokee has served me far beyond what any other vehicle has done over the 57 years that I have been driving. What can you say about a vehicle that finally after 414,489 miles has the check engine light come on!"
