Expert Reply:
The trailer brake controller I recommend for you is the Tekonsha Prodigy P3, part # 90195, that you referenced. This unit is easy to set up and operate, is highly rated by our customers who use it, and offers a mix of great features, such as compatibility with both electric and electric-over-hydraulic brakes and included diagnostics.
Your Grand Cherokee does not have a quick-connect port under its dash so you'll use installation kit # 5506. This kit includes the wiring, connectors and circuit breaker to get brake (and 12V) power to your factory 7-way. An installation video is linked for you along with an article on brake controller installations.
