Mundelein, Illinois, United States

Up for auction is one 2006 Dodge Charger SRT8. This charger is adult owned, driven, and maintained.  This charger is smoker free!  I bought this vehicle last year from Florida Dealer in the condition you see it now.  The dealer told me the engine was replaced approximately 8,000 miles ago.  It doesn't burn oil and returns between 20-23 mpg on the highway.  This charger one of the most comfortable highway cruising cars I have ever owned. The A/C blows out cold air and the heated seats are a nice warm hug. I have been to Virginia and back from Chicago twice and have arrived well rested at my destination.  

Mechanically this car is 100% stock output with no aftermarket add-ons.  All fluids including; Coolant, Brake, ATF, Power Steering, Differential, and Engine Oil have been completely refreshed this spring. I did not drive it over the winter as it stayed in my garage.  The battery was replaced last summer as were the tires as you can see in the pictures.  I had 275 width Hankook tires installed and they ride very nicely.  I think the wider tires complete the look of a car that has 425 horsepower from the factory. 

That number is my current problem.

I have a 15 year old turning 16 this year.  A fast car, high insurance, and a newly licensed teenager don't mix.  I have other toys to keep me busy (motorcycles) but I'm using the funds of this sale to help my teen purchase a safe, sensible, first car that can be used in Chicago winter conditions. 

**Disclaimers**
I do have a small lien on the vehicle and they (Pentagon Federal Credit Union) are very quick to mail out a title after their lien is satisfied. 

 Here is what I know about the history of this car.   When I bought this vehicle, there was a title issue with the mileage.  The owner that had the charger before my dealer purchase didn't pay his bills and this charger was repossessed.  For whatever reason (digital dash? no battery?) they couldn't get the actual mileage before sending this car to auction. So they recorded the vehicle as having only ONE mile.   The dealer had an inspection done after they bought it from auction and the mileage was updated to a mileage of approx 95k.  So just in case you see a rollback warning on the mileage from the carfax report, I wanted to let you know why.  I'm being upfront about what I'd want to know if I were a purchaser.  I am in no rush to sell so I have no reason to sacrifice my integrity.  

There are a few scratches and scuffs on the body. The front bumper was not removed correctly when the engine was replaced and I tried my best to show the damage. (Shown in pictures.) There are no dents that I have noticed yet which is amazing for the level of callous people that drive in this region.  The body has a few decals removed along with the door bump trim.  I think it looks pretty nice without it but it is missing.  The interior has Carbon fiber overlay installed on the dash and doors. 

If you have any questions, I will answer questions quickly.  No joyrides will be given unless you arrive with cash in hand and a current insurance policy in your name.  This is not a car for beginners or the immature.

The winning bidder is required to place their deposit within 24 hours and contact me with firm details of how they wish to pay the remainder.  If no contact is made or the method of currency is insufficient (ie, turkish Iira, rubles, pesos...)  I will report the winning bidder as a non-payer.  I am serious as you are if you actually want a decent machine for the money.  

Winning bidder is responsible for all shipping costs and liabilities.  Vehicle is sold AS-IS with no warranty expressed or implied.  If you want a charger with a warranty, the dodge dealer will gladly sell you a new charger for $45,000 with a warranty.   

I will offer to pick up the winning bidder from either Milwaukee or O'hare Airport at my convenience. 

Thank you for reading my listing and here are some pictures.  ( I hate boring dull Ebay ads with no personality)

Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

Dodge and Jeep are announcing recalls of a total of 895,000 Durango and Grand Cherokee models worldwide from the 2011 through 2014 model years. There's a possibility that the wiring in the sun visor can short circuit and cause a fire. It specifically affects vehicles built between January 5, 2010, and December 11, 2013, and there are approximately 651,000 of them in the US, 45,700 in Canada, 23,000 in Mexico and 175,000 outside of North America.
Screws that fasten the sunvisor to the headliner may pierce wires in the visor, if the part has been removed or serviced, potentially causing a fire risk. If the wires short circuit, they could overheat and potentially combust. The automakers report three injuries caused by this defect, and according to the investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "there may be a total of 52 unique fire incidents."
To fix the problem, Dodge and Jeep will inspect the vehicles for suspect wiring, and all of the models, whether damaged or not, will get a new sun visor spacer with a wire guide to stop the possibility of short circuits. According to the automakers' announcement, "this condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced." They will notify affected owners, and repairs will begin in August.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango still catching fire after recall

Thu, May 7 2015

Automakers issue recalls all the time. It's part of the cost of doing business. We just assume that once the recall has been carried out, the problem in question has been fixed. But that's not always the case, as this latest investigation being undertaken by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration goes to show. The problem stems back to a recall issued by Chrysler last summer. It revolved rather the sun visor in the SUVs it makes at its Jefferson North Assembly Plant – specifically, the screw affixing the sun visor could end up rubbing against the wiring for the lamp in the vanity mirror, potentially causing an electrical short and even a fire. 62 such short circuits, 38 fires and three injuries reported, prompting Chrysler to recall nearly 900,000 units of the 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango (over 650,000 of them in the United States). The plastic spacers they installed to rectify the problem, however, may not have done the trick. Eight reports (but none involving injuries) have been filed with the NHTSA regarding the same issue recurring, spurring the government agency to open a new investigation into the matter. If deemed necessary, the NHTSA could ask FCA to issue another recall to fix the issue again, which we may necessitate the installation of a fuze to prevent any such the electric short. Related Video: INVESTIGATION Subject : Headliner Fires Date Investigation Opened: MAY 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: RQ15003 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM , INTERIOR LIGHTING Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: On July 1st, 2014 Chrysler (FCA US LLC) issued safety recall 14V-391 to remedy a wiring-related fire hazard on the headliner of approximately 661,888 model year (MY) 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango vehicles manufactured between January 5, 2010 and December 11, 2013. The recall was in response to the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) investigation EA14-001 during which data provided by Chrysler indicates that the fire is caused by an electrical short in the vanity lamp wiring for either one of the sun visors mounted on the vehicle. The sun visors are mounted to the roof of the vehicle through the headliner with three metal screws.
