1983 Chrysler Cordoba Low Low Original Mileage on 2040-cars
Pottstown, Pennsylvania, United States
Up for your bidding consideration is an extremely clean 1983 Cordoba. As it has been stored indoors it's entire life, very lightly used and devoid of the calamities that usually befall a car of this era. Some of you might recall seeing this car listed on ebay over the summer. I was the high bidder on the car and at that time, the odometer was showing approx. 19,700 miles. I've since put some 1600+ trouble free miles on her but sadly, a change in employment dictates it's sale.
Sporting just 21,396 original miles, this handsome survivor has been treated to a number of preventative maintenance measures. Though the fellow I had bought it from took very good care of the car, out of an abundance of caution, I performed the following before pressing it into service: r&r trans fluid and filter r&r rear brake shoes r&r rear differential lube r&r brake hoses r&r antifreeze r&r brake fluid r&r thermostat r&r suspension bushings r&r radiator hoses r&r shocks r&r heater hoses r&r air filter r&r plug wires r&r headlights r&r cap and rotor r&r fuel filter r&r all fan belts Of note, the battery was replaced on the day I picked it up. The tires were original as well, but at 30 years old, they were coming apart at the seams, so they have since been replaced with a new set of BF Goodrich radial T/A's. The stereo was also replaced with a Sony CD/MP3/USB unit and new rear speakers, which sound incredible. The interior is very nice with no rips or tears in the seats. As you can imagine, with the low number of miles accumulated in all those years, the seats weren't sat in very much, so they've maintained their shape quite well. The carpet shows little wear, the headliner is still attached to the roof, the gauges all work and the dash has no cracks. The landau top is in excellent condition as is all of them chrome. The power windows, power trunk release, power door locks and cruise control all function as they should, as does all of the lighting. As with any car of this vintage, there are bound to be a few blemishes. The original paint holds up very well, but there are several small stone chips and few scratches in the clear coat here and there, mostly on the trunk lid. The right rear wheel well molding is scuffed and the plastic seat belt covers are cracked. The heat does work, but is a little slow to come up. The a/c was converted over to 134a by the previous owner. When I bought the car it was working but needed a little boost. I put a small can of refrigerant in it and brought it back up to snuff, but please bear in mind, it is a 30 year old system and may need another shot come springtime. Overall it is a very clean, easy to drive car with an amazing 21,396 original miles on the clock. Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity to own a piece of 80's Chrysler history not involving a K car. Act now and receive an autographed copy of Disco Inferno by the Trammps. Disclaimer: Autographed by me that is, not the Trammps. BID EARLY BID OFTEN Please ask any questions prior to bidding and I will answer them to the best of my ability. |

The Chrysler brand could be axed under Stellantis management
Sun, Jan 3 2021MILAN — While running NissanÂ’s North American operations from 2009 to 2011, Carlos Tavares had a reputation for closely watching costs with little tolerance for vehicles or ventures that didnÂ’t make money. Experts say that means Tavares, currently the head of PSA Group, is likely to follow that blueprint when he becomes leader of a merged PSA and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The low-performing Chrysler brand might get the axe as could slow-selling cars, SUVs or trucks that lack potential. Already the companies are talking about consolidating vehicle platforms — the underpinnings and powertrains — to save billions in engineering and manufacturing costs. That could mean job losses in Italy, Germany and Michigan as PSA Peugeot technology is integrated into North American and Italian vehicles. “You canÂ’t be cost efficient if you keep the entire scale of both companies,” said Karl Brauer, executive analyst for the iSeeCars.com auto website. “WeÂ’ve seen this show before, and weÂ’re going to see it again where they economize these platforms across continents, across multiple markets.” Shareholders of both companies are to meet Monday to vote on the merger to form the worldÂ’s fourth-largest automaker, to be called Stellantis. The deal received EU regulatory approval just before Christmas. Tavares, who for years has wanted to sell PSA vehicles in the U.S., wonÂ’t take full control of the merged companies until the end of January at the earliest. He likely will target Europe for consolidation first, because thatÂ’s where Fiat vehicles overlap extensively with PSAÂ’s, said IHS Markit Principal Auto Analyst Stephanie Brinley. Europe has been a money-loser for FCA, and factories in Italy are operating way below capacity — a concern for unions, given FiatÂ’s role as the largest private sector employer in the country. “We are at a crossroads,Â’Â’ said Michele De Palma of the FIOM CGIL metalworkersÂ’ union. “Either there is a relaunch, or there is a slow agonizing closure of industry, in particular the auto industry, in Italy.” ItalyÂ’s hopes lie with the luxury Maserati and sporty Alfa Romeo brands, but De Palma said investments are needed to bring hybrid and electric technology up to speed. FiatÂ’s Italian capacity stands at 1.5 million vehicles, but only a few hundred thousand are being produced each year. Most factories were on rolling short-term layoffs due to lack of demand, even before the pandemic.
Fiat/PSA's dominance in small vans hangs up EU's merger approval
Mon, Jun 8 2020BRUSSELS — EU antitrust regulators are concerned about Fiat Chrysler and Peugeot / PSA's combined high market share in small vans and may require concessions to clear their $50 billion merger, people familiar with the matter said. The companies, which are seeking to create the world's fourth biggest carmaker, were told of the European Commission's concerns last week. If Fiat and PSA fail to dispel the European Commission's doubts in the next two days and subsequently decline to offer concessions by Wednesday, the deadline for doing so, the deal would face a four-month-long investigation. The EU competition enforcer, which has set a June 17 deadline for its preliminary review, declined to comment. Fiat was not immediately available for comment while PSA had no immediate comment. Hiving off overlapping businesses, usually a regulatory demand to ensure more competition, could prove tricky for the carmakers because of the technicalities. Fiat and PSA are looking to merge to help offset slowing demand and shoulder the cost of making cleaner vehicles to meet tougher emissions regulations. The deal puts under one roof the Italian carmaker's brands such as Fiat, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Maserati and the French company's Peugeot, Opel and DS.

Jeep still working to improve Cherokee's 9-speed auto
Tue, Feb 3 2015Fiat Chrysler is hoping an upcoming software update will stem the tide of consumer complaints surrounding its nine-speed automatic transmission. Owners of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee have reported a number of problems on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's SaferCar.gov website, since the new model and its troubled gearbox arrived way back in October 2013. The software update is "intended to keep the vehicle performing as intended, and to prevent durability issues from occurring in the future," an FCA spokesperson told Automotive News, and will be available to owners of both the 2014 to 2015 Jeep Cherokee and the 2015 Chrysler 200, which also uses the 9AT. While FCA will be notifying consumers of the update, owners can also request the software reflash if they happen into their dealer before then. Despite the widely documented problems with the transmission, the only complaints on NHTSA's website relate to the 2014 Cherokee – neither the 2015 Jeep nor the 200 have received any complaints. That bodes well as FCA prepares to begin deliveries of the 2015 Jeep Renegade and launch the Fiat 500X, both of which pair the 9AT with the 2.4-liter Tigershark four-cylinder. "We have had to do an inordinate amount of intervention on that transmission, surely beyond what any of us had forecast," FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne told Automotive News. "There are things that we have done – that we continue to do. Our proactive customer care intervention has actually increased in intensity on these vehicles in 2014, especially in the second half." What's fascinating about the 9AT's problems are that they haven't been the fault of manufacturer ZF, but have related to software that wasn't "mature" and had "teething problems," Marchionne has said previously, AN reports. With the lack of criticism for the 9AT in 2015 models and this pending software update, though, here's hoping that FCA has finally figured out its fuel-sipping gearbox. Related Video:
