  This is a 2002 Dodge Dakota 4 wheel drive in great shape. Carfax shows this truck as being dealer serviced religiously every 3000 miles at Franklin Sussex Automall in Sussex, NJ  all its life almost until 105,000 miles, including oil changes and transfer case flushes as per factory recommendations! As we all know, this is almost unheard of these days. I recently had a full service oil change and they said all fluids are the right color and appear to not be leaking. Every now and then when I fill up, the fuel gauge sticks and then goes back to accurate reading after driving it a bit.  It has very minor surface rust in a few typical areas. It has about 109,000 miles thereabouts( I still drive it about 3 miles to work every day). I just got a NJ inspection sticker good until August 2016. I just had all the bearings done (front wheels, and entire rebuild on differential. pinion gear, carrier bearings, seals, etc. inside and outside)... The pictures tell the story about the tires. They are still in awesome shape with a substantial amount of tread. There's asmall surface chip in windshield on passenger side but not in drivers line of sight so it's hardly noticeable. There is some surface rust under drivers side rear turn signal, and the fenders and rockers are in great shape. see picture of bedrail on drivers side and you will see a few dents, but that's about it. I repaired the factory headliner as it sagged in a couple of spots (see picture of repaired headliner). This truck has a 3.9 V6 which is a strong running engine and it kicks over instantly and idles evenly right where it should. Most Dodge mechanics will agree that the 3.9 V6 is much more desirable than the 3.7 which seems to be prone to mechanical issues. The CD player works great, truck runs and drives excellent. Steering box  is tight and truck does not drift, tires are in good condition (Also see pictures!) Front brake pads are new and when I had the rear rebuilt, I had the mechanic put a new drum brake spring and tensioner kit in both sides... The rear shoes looked like they have tons of miles left on them. Windows are factory tinted, and it has a center rear slide window. Truck also has a bedliner, cruise control, AC(I think it may need to be recharged), interior is in great shape- Windows, door latches and power locks all work as they should,no tears in seats or broken, scratched, stained anything. Please feel free to contact me for any additional information regarding this truck, or to arrange a time to come see it or have a mechanic check it out. This truck is being sold as is, with no warranties either expressed or implied by the seller. It is the responsibility of the buyer to view the truck or have it checked out by a representative agent of the buyer at the buyer's cost. Vehicle delivery and all sales taxes are the sole responsibility of the buyer, The Newton,N.J.  DMV is 5 miles from my house and you can get t-tags or register it there, or E-Bay has vehicle shipping options.  Payment of 250.00 into Paypal is required within 48 hours of auction end. At this time we can arrange and remainder in cash or bank check ( I have the title here), payable within 7 days of auction end. I will work with you on this last part if you need extra time for special circumstances, within reason of course. I will not release title until payment (final payment) clears my account. I am honest and forthcoming  but this is not my first rodeo. criminals have tried to scam me before, so I am familiar with many tactics and all fraudulent activity will be reported to E-Bay.   This truck runs great and has very few issues, I know anyone who sees it and drives it will absolutely love it. THANK YOU, and good luck bidding! RAY

Houston road rage incident devolves into all-out brawl

Tue, May 17 2016

The video is no longer available. It appears the associated account has been terminated. Chaos erupted on a Houston freeway last weekend when an altercation spiraled out of control and ended up in a battle-royale style brawl in the middle of traffic. According to KTRK, David Dao and his daughter were traveling along FM 1960 on the morning of May 14 when they came upon a white Honda and a blue Ram truck parked in the right lane. The drivers and passengers of the vehicles were engaged in a spirited argument about something that had happened moments before Dao pulled up. Dao parked in his lane to block traffic in an attempt at making sure other drivers didn't hit the people fighting in the right lane, and instructed his daughter to start filming the incident in case they were needed as witnesses. As Dao's daughter filmed, the incident quickly escalated–harsh words were exchanged, a drink was thrown in a woman's face, and then the driver of the Ram kicked in the Honda's grille. "I couldn't believe it. As soon as he kicked the grille, I was like, 'This is going down now," said Dao. "I was thinking this is going to be bad. At that time, I knew because there was physical damage." As soon as the Ram driver kicked the Honda the entire situation went sideways and devolved into a huge brawl, with the people from both vehicles throwing wild punches and grappling with one another. A woman who was a passenger in the Ram attempted to break up the scrum but took a haymaker in the face for her troubles. Eventually, the fight broke up and the people returned to their vehicles which Dao assumed meant that the altercation was over. Apparently though, the Ram driver felt he hadn't made his point, and he reversed at high speed into the Honda, smashing the fascia and buckling the hood. The Ram then sped off westbound on U.S. 290 with the Honda on its tail. According to the Harris County Sheriff's Office, the incident was not reported and there is no word what happened to the brawlers after they left the scene.

Dodge hoping Fast & Furious appearance gives Dart a sales jolt [w/video]

Tue, 28 May 2013

According to Automotive News, Chrysler is hoping Fast & Furious 6 will be kind to the Dodge Dart. While the compact sedan doesn't actually show up in the film, Dodge has partnered up with the movie franchise for a new ad featuring the Dart.
Chrysler hasn't exactly seen the high sales numbers it was originally hoping for with the new sedan, thanks in part to a couple of missteps. For starters, most early-production vehicles were only offered with a manual transmission. Analysts believe Chrysler squandered around 95 percent of potential Dart sales because automatic transmission options weren't immediately available.
Right now, the Dodge Dart rakes 19th among compact cars, pulling down 31,064 sales through April. Last month was the company's strongest, with 8,099 units moving off of dealer lots. Unfortunately, the model has also been handicapped by its older sister, the Avenger. With Chrysler throwing heavy incentives at the aging sedan, many consumers have taken advantage of a better deal with the slightly larger, more powerful Avenger.

FCA to recall nearly 900,000 vehicles that don't meet emissions standards

Wed, Mar 13 2019

WASHINGTON — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will recall 862,520 gasoline-powered vehicles in the United States that do not meet U.S. emissions standards, the Environmental Protection Agency said on Wednesday. The recall was prompted by in-use emissions investigations conducted by the EPA and in-use testing conducted by Fiat Chrysler as required by U.S. regulations, the agency said. EPA said it will continue to investigate other Fiat Chrysler vehicles that are potentially noncompliant and may become the subject of future recalls. The recall includes 2011-2016 Dodge Journeys, 2011-2014 Chrysler 200s and Dodge Avengers, 2011-2012 Dodge Calibers and 2011-2016 Jeep Compass/Patriots. Fiat Chrysler said in a statement the EPA announcement "has no safety implications. Nor are there any associated fines." "The issue was discovered by FCA during routine in-use emissions testing and reported to the agency," the company said. "We began contacting affected customers last month to advise them of the needed repairs, which will be provided at no charge." Its U.S.-traded shares were down 1 percent. "EPA welcomes the action by Fiat Chrysler to voluntarily recall its vehicles that do not meet U.S. emissions standards," EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler said in a statement. "We will provide assistance to consumers navigating the recall and continue to ensure that auto manufacturers abide by our nation's laws designed to protect human health and the environment." Fiat Chrysler owners can continue to drive their vehicles, the government said. Due to the "large number of vehicles involved and the need to supply replacement components — specifically to the vehicle's catalytic converter — this recall will be implemented in phases during the 2019," the EPA said In January, Fiat Chrysler agreed to a settlement worth about $800 million to resolve claims by the U.S. Justice Department and state of California that it used illegal software to produce false results on Ran and Jeep vehicles. But that incident involved diesel engines. It is awaiting the outcome of a criminal probe. The hefty penalty was the latest fallout from the U.S. government's stepped-up enforcement of vehicle emissions rules after Volkswagen AG admitted in September 2015 to intentionally evading emissions rules.
