  1. Windshield washer fluid has (at least mine does) a particular colour and smell. Compare to what is in the bottle of which ever you use. If it is water then I suspect as someone pointed out it's probably HVAC outflow and nothing else as everything else has distinct smell/colour.
  2. Probably points to the fact that they squeezed off a rubber portion of a brake line somewhere and the pedal acted normally. One would think any mechanic worth his salt could zero in after that. Lots of rust under the car - could be a vehicle from salt water flood and in itself is worrisome.
  3. What more can you do? If the cooling system maintains pressure , has new coolant and you drive rationally it should be fine. Charge your cellphone!!!
  4. Well that is what the "volume control" is for for "incoming calls". Outgoing is a product of your speaking voice , ambient in car noise and microphone placement. "i cant hear who is calling me but they can hear me" is what was posted.
  5. Turn up the radio volume control it does phone audio during call.
  6. When I traded my 2011 DJ last month it still had original battery.
  7. Check YouTube for instructional videos , apart from that the official service manual would be a goto or maybe if you know someone in the body shop business.
  8. Have not had a lot of experience with it as of yet but music I have listened to has been the acceptable quality.
  9. Some of the models you hold the drivers heat up and down buttons for 5 seconds to enter engineering menu.
  10. I have 8.4AN in my Jeep and a Motorola "Moto G 2nd edition" and all the features work , have texting a couple of times voice dictation works great.
  11. Yes it is the remote start safety switch , lift the hood and try it.

    Actually electric parking brake is neat , I use mine quite often because of my inclined driveway. I have it set to come on automatically when I put the Cherokee in PARK.
  13. Have the battery disconnected for 10 - 20 minutes first , could be the computers just need to be reset. Easy thing to try before paying for diagnostics.
  14. They are aggresive , bought the new Cherokee less than a month ago and Sirius Canada called asking me to extend my years free subscription. They only wanted $4.99 a month for a 6 month extension - I passed.
  15. "I've noticed the newer Journeys have purple coolant whole the 2011 models had orange-red coolant. Continuous improvement" The new color denotes OAT (organic based) specifically designed for newer materials involved in the engine and associated parts construction.
  16. Michelin blades go for $11 each no matter of size here at Costco , they last about 6 - 8 months depending on winter wx. By the way rear wiper on the Cherokee is exactly the same as the DJ.
  17. Big improvement over stock.
  18. Not according to my owners manual.
  19. I had the same thing happen to mine and tried to remedy it but not successful, learned to live with it.

  22. Tnx Rolly - another new learning curve.
  23. Well my 2011 SXT is gone. Just on my way to pick up my 2016 Jeep Cherokee Limited. I'll be hanging around but have a new bookmark on the system.
