That's crazy
Their Grand Cherokee appears to be of the same model year and trim I have (2014 Summit) which allows for a payload of 1050lbs, tongue weight of 740 lbs, and max trailer weight of 7400lbs. However, I cannot tell what the power train is. Could be 3.6l V6, 5.7lV8, or 3.0L Diesel. The V6 has a lower max trailer weight.
The only reason it appears reasonable level is that the vehicle is equiped with "Quadra Level" four corner air suspension. It's nice but as others have stated, it hides overload conditions.
I love my Grand Cherokee and sometimes I wish I had a slightly larger trailer (I tow a 17 footer), but that 35 footer is just way beyond what the vehicle is capable of towing.
