If the problem is lack of heat, the most common failure on this model is the blend door. Check the HeaterTreater web site for diagnostic information.

If the problem is lack of control over the switch between defrost/vent/floor vents, this is a vacuum controlled mode door and the problem is usually a vacuum leak somewhere in the system.

The water is not circulating through the heater core or you have a control problem. If the heater is putting out heat then it is probably a control problem. If no heat then - water pump out, low on coolant, or maybe the therostat is stuck open.

Heater does not work in Cherokee?

The Grand Cherokee is notorious for failures of the air flow control. However the Cherokee has the same basic problem. The blend door has a tendency to break, killing control over air flow through the heater core. The fix is fairly simple with the kit from HeaterTreater. Check the product at heatertreater.net.
