Chrysler Jeep Cherokees had a big problem with the rear axle (carrier specifically). Many needed to be replaced at just around 100k miles. This is easily a $1000 job. I personally know of five 96-98 cherokees that needed this very repair. If it's already been done...then no worries. Otherwise take caution

They are useless for true off-roading as they use unibody contruction which is anything but tough...but good enough as an urban assault vehicle.

I was actually thinking about "Grand Cherokees" with the rear issue. Might be similar.
