★ Top Answer
If you have a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 2WD, the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) is situated at the output shaft of the transmission. For those with a 4WD model, the sensor can be found on the transfer case. The VSS is responsible for monitoring wheel spin speed to relay this data to both the powertrain control module and ABS control module. This information is essential for the proper functioning of features like cruise control, traction control, ABS, and the speedometer. Signs of a faulty sensor may include erratic speedometer readings, overheating, issues shifting gears, disabled cruise control, and vehicle hesitation. The typical cost to replace the VSS in a 2006 Grand Cherokee ranges from $140 to $160, with labor costs averaging around $50.
