My brother in law has bought a jeep cherokee 4.0 V6 limited edition. Are there any common faults or problems with this car

More problems than you can shake a stick at on these. Engine is not too bad, but everything else falls apart and not cheap to fix. Pajero would be a better buy TBH.

headlamps and just look at the price of a replacement.

Car Mechanics had several articles: rear axle whine/failure/ suspension/ etc
Basically a badly designed and built piece of carp worthy of Renault at its worst.

Surely it's a straight six? I've had a couple and had no problems other than a few minor electrical glitches and the odd oil leak but they were fairly new and lowish mileage. They are well known for rear axle problems, poor electrics, rusting on the roof, screen leaks, exhaust manifolds cracking and generally poorly screwed together. On the plus side, I really enjoyed mine, found them comfortable and quick and simple enough to look after.
If you get a cracked exhaust manifold, let me know as I have a repaired one going cheap and a spare fuel tank. Might even have a factory dog guard somewhere too.
