2014 Jeep Cherokee 2.0L Diesel · RV64 FVL

A recurring pattern of tyre wear and a significant engine management failure in 2024 define the mechanical history of this vehicle, although the record has since stabilised with a clean pass on 7 November 2025. While the vehicle has maintained a consistent record of roadworthiness, the frequency of tyre-related advisories and failures across multiple years suggests a trend of consumables being worn to their legal limits before replacement. With 96,204 recorded miles over approximately twelve years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 8,017 miles per year. This accumulation rate is typical for its age and suggests a steady usage profile without prolonged periods of inactivity. Mechanically, this mileage indicates that standard wear-and-tear components, such as suspension bushings and drivetrain mounts, are at a stage where their condition warrants close inspection. Attention should be directed toward the engine management system following the major failure recorded in October 2024 regarding an inoperative or malfunctioning MIL. During a test drive, ensure no warning lights illuminate on the dashboard and that the engine operates smoothly across the rev range without hesitation. The history of recurring tyre wear, specifically on the inner edges and front axle, suggests a need to verify the current tread depth and check for uneven wear patterns that could indicate misalignment or worn suspension components. The 2020 records highlighted thinning inner brake pads for both the front and rear axles. While more recent tests are clear, a prospective buyer should listen for any grinding or squealing during braking and feel for any pulsation in the brake pedal, which could indicate uneven pad wear or disc corrosion. Confirming the current state of the braking system is essential given the previous history of these components reaching their wear limits.
