I use duralast and get about 4 years on a battery. No complaints at all.
Best Battery for Jeep Cherokee
I've been running a red top Optima for about four years now and no complaints.
I have a red top in my XJ and people say the quality has gone down every time Optima is mentioned but I've had nothing but stellar performance from mine. I was about 7 miles in on a trail 2 weeks ago and my alt died. The battery got me back to the main road before it died enough to not run the engine anymore. A little more than an hour back out and some gnarly rock crawling.
I just replaced the red top Optima in my Cherokee after 8 years. Put in a yellow top Optima.
They added an extra battery for the start stop feature, which can be turned off, to help preserve the main battery draw. That is the biggest issue on the jeep. Talking a new battery every two years.
A family friend bought a brand new Jeep Cherokee hybrid about 2 years ago and had loads of problems with the battery. Finally the dealer said to replace the whole battery but it turns out they don't make replacement batteries for that model anymore. They ended up being unable to fix it and gave a big discount for a new model so they effectively traded up. The whole ordeal took over a year.
I usually run the Duralasts just because AutoZone is everywhere and I usually get it replaced twice before the warranty runs out - Phoenix is brutal on batteries.
