2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.0 LTD A 4.0L Petrol · LD04 YXC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, maintaining a consistent pass record over the last four years. The most recent test on 14 May 2025 at 40,295 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just one day prior at 40,285 miles. This isolated failure suggests a minor, easily rectifiable issue that was addressed immediately, as the subsequent test showed a completely clean sheet with no recurring mechanical or structural faults. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,832 miles per year. Between June 2022 at 30,284 miles and May 2025 at 40,295 miles, the vehicle covered 10,011 miles over three years. This low usage pattern typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts such as bushings, seals, and brake hoses which may not be fully exercised or out despite the low mileage. A physical inspection should focus on the risks associated with low-mileage aging. The buyer must check for structural corrosion on the chassis rails and floor pans, as moisture retention can occur in vehicles that are not driven frequently. Given the age, inspect the suspension bushings for cracking and verify the tyres for sidewall rot, regardless of remaining tread depth. Additionally, examine the brake fluid condition and caliper seals to ensure the braking system has not suffered from internal corrosion during long periods of inactivity.
