1998 Jeep Cherokee Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
The 1998 Jeep Cherokee came with two engines — the 2.5L I4 and the 4.0L I6 — across four trims. This factory service and repair manual is matched to that exact year, so the specifications and sequences are correct for your engine and trim rather than approximated from a neighboring model year.
Engines
- 2.5L I4 — 150 cu in, OHV
- 4.0L I6 — 242 cu in, OHV
Trims
- Classic
- Limited
- SE
- Sport
Known issues on the 1998 Cherokee. Six recalls are on federal record for this model year: a loss of brake fluid that lowers brake-line pressure and lengthens stopping distance, headlights whose decreased lighting visibility raises crash risk, a corroded frontal air-bag control module that can illuminate the air-bag warning light or allow inadvertent deployment, a disc-brake rotor whose reduced strength can let the cast-iron wear surface separate from the hub and reduce braking, an exterior lighting fault that decreases visibility, and a fuel-pump leak that can cause a fire in the presence of an ignition source. Owners have filed 553 complaints and Jeep has issued 71 technical service bulletins for the year.
From a routine service interval to an air-bag module fault or a hard-to-trace brake or lighting problem, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1998 Cherokee.
