Default Running Hot when towing trailer

I just bought a 2014 Grand Cherokee and noticed the temp gauge getting high when climbing mountains towing my camper. Anyone know if I can increase the cooling fan capacity or maybe try something to help cool the engine under load?

You're in the wrong forum....these platforms are platform specific. This one is for the regular Cherokeee (XJ).

Post in the link below. And when you do, add some more specifics like your engine, how much you are towing, do you have a tow package, etc. The more details you give, the better answers you will get. Good luck!
