Silver_Jeep, so sorry for not responding sooner, have not been active on this site for some time. Yes, prices can certainly vary. I did get a warranty but not through Mopar. My jeep dealer told me that the Mopar policy was a good one but that service had to be done by a Jeep Dealer. I was...

Actually, I have a couple of issues but the title reflects the greater problem. The first is that I can no longer charge to the mid 29 EV level that was common when I first purchased my 22 Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve. Now, the maximum level that I can attain is in the 24 - 25 EV range. I...

You might be right and they can certainly do better on fuel economy.

Yes, their is regeneration in Hybrid, the first part of my evaluation shows that after driving 72.6 miles I generated 83% power or a 23 mile range. I did not test running in e-Save mode starting with a full charge. I started with a depleted battery because I wanted to see how much electrical...

I agree with, and appreciate, all of the previous comments. This will conclude my experimenting with different modes/settings. I thought it would be interesting to measure the amount of charge created by driving in e-Save Mode. Starting with a full tank of gas and depleted electric, I reset...

Not 30, but 35%

What I like is that before I would have to keep closing the shade but now it's open almost all the time. This time I even tinted the rear window with 30%.

I enjoy driving with the shade on the panoramic roof open but do not appreciate the sun in my eyes on bright sunny days or the heat that comes in on hot summer days. I usually have my windows tinted and did so again with my Grand Cherokee. I had a Limo Tint (Allows 5% of light to pass through)...

Thanks sikclown, when I finish with a little more experimentation, I will be doing the same, charging nightly. I’m waiting for an electrician to run a 220v line for me. Most of my driving is local so I anticipate getting the benefit of a plug in hybrid.

Actually, it is personal curiosity. Right now I'm running in E-Save mode which is essentially gasoline mode and I see that I'm generating more electric energy than I thought would be the case. Just started this today, no data yet. I will keep posting results in the event others may find the...

I am in the process of conducting some fuel economy tests under various conditions and drive modes. In an earlier thread I promised to post my results and have included them here. This is from my first evaluation. Conditions: Driving in Hybrid Mode and starting each segment with a full...

Not yet Sarge, but I am more than willing to share my results. I plan to collect data under two different experiments. The first, running now, is to start off with a full tank and charge. Each evening, I bring my e-status back to 100%. Since I’m using very little fuel, I will end this phase when...

Yes, I like the wheels as well. It’s interesting that after my order was placed and I was in contact with Jeep Customer Service, they in formed me that the vehicle on order was not a Summit Reserve because my dealer did not enter the proper codes. This caused a lot of turmoil but after I was...

My Grand Cherokee has finally arrived, received as ordered, nothing deleted. Mine was the first received at the dealership. Here is my configuration: Summit Reserve 4xe, Silver Zynith exterior with Global Black Interior. Advance Pro Tech Group IV and Finishing Package by Mopar. Ordered...

All good info, appreciate it.
