Known issues on the 1996 Cherokee. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year: a loss of brake fluid that can lower brake line pressure and lengthen stopping distance, improper wiring clamping that can arc at the connection and cause a fire in the engine compartment, headlights whose decreased lighting visibility can lead to a crash, a disc brake rotor whose cast iron wear surface can separate from the hub and reduce braking, and an exterior lighting fault whose decreased visibility can lead to a crash. Owners have filed 584 complaints and Jeep has issued 42 technical service bulletins for the year.
From a routine service interval to a brake job or a hard-to-trace wiring fault, it keeps you on the correct procedure and specification for your specific 1996 Cherokee.
