SO FAR VEHICLE MEETS EXPECTATIONS. ONE DIFFICULTY WE ENCOUNTERED IS DIFFICULTY ENTERING.
MY WIFE IS A SHORT PERSON (5 '). WE ORDERED JEEP RUNNING BOARDS AND HAD THEM INSTALLED, BUT THEY WERE UNSATISFACTORY BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T SUSPENDED BENEATH THE BODY TO PERMIT HER TO GET HER FOOT FIRMLY ON THE RUNNING BOARD. SERVICE ENDED UP REMOVING THEM AND WE WERE REFUNDED THE PARTS COST AND INSTALLATION COST. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD US THEY WERE THE WRONG RUNNING BOARDS FOR A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED EXTRA. NO OTHER RUNNING BOARDS ARE AVAILABLE FROM MOPAR. THE ONLY OTHER OPTION THEY COULD SUGGEST IS AFTERMARKET RETRACTABLES, BUT AT A COST OF ABOUT $2200 INSTALLED. SHE STILL WILL HAVE A PROBLEM ENTERING, ESPECIALLY AS WINTER APPROACHES, WITH SNOW & ICE CAUSING SLIPPERY SURFACES.
