For Sale 1985 Jeep CJ-7 125,500 Miles VIN: 1JCCM87A2FT022294 OverviewYou are looking at a 3 owner 1985 CJ-7. This Jeep has been built for reliability, safety and the ability to do some mild trail riding. Lots attention to detail make this Jeep enjoyable both on and off the highway. It is titled, insured and passed emissions inspections up until it was registered as an antique in 2010. It drives and tracks well. Both axles are equipped with Detroit lockers and alloy axle shafts. The power steering is tight and the hydraulically boosted brakes are powerful. The emergency brake system was just serviced and holds well. All the electrical components work including the windshield washers and dash lights. The speedometer works and is accurate. There are lots of extras on this Jeep. See below. The fuel injection and ignition systems are fully programmable and a netbook and software is included for tuning and engine monitoring if you wish to do so. The EFI system uses an Innovate wide band O2 sensor for maximum tuning accuracy. The Jeep was purchased new in Texas and kept as a daily driver for many years. I am the third owner, with the second being a close family member. The Jeep was moved to the East Coast in 2002 and has been garaged or under a carport its entire life. It has been regularly serviced and has run Mobil One fully synthetic engine oil for most of its life. The roll cage was fabricated by a well-known fabrication shop, A to Z Fabrication, on the East Coast. It's main strucutre, made from 2" DOM tubing, is triangulated in numerous spots and mounts the suspension seats and five point Crow harnesses. The factory style seat belts were maintained and integrated into the roll cage for convenience. This gives you the option of wearing either the regular seatbelt or the 5 point harness. The seatbelts themselves are brand new. The Jeep is set up for flat towing and comes with a tow bar. The Jeep is sporting its original paint with spots of touch up paint in various locations around the vehicle. Known Issues: There is minor rust through in two of the four spots where the original rollbar met the body. These areas were not painted at the factory and tend to collect water and rust. It was not visible when the original roll bar was installed in the Jeep. See photos and video. Otherwise there is no rust through on the body or frame, only minor surface rust in the wheel wells and tub floor where the paint has been worn off. There has been no body work done to this vehicle. All the body panels are original and there is no body filler on this vehicle. The body has a few minor dents, including the front left fender, the rear right corner and the right rocker panel (not visible under the rocker guard). See photos. The engine drips a few drops of oil after being run for a long period of time. There is a very minor gear oil leak at the rear differential cover. It leaks a drop or two after being driven. The jeep will pop out of second gear on steep down hills. This is most likely a worn syncro, but it doesn't affect normal shifting. The front most exhaust manifold bolt hole on the head failed many years ago. A bracket was fabricated and installed to replace the bolt. The heater's air "recirculation" control cable is broken. The vehicle has no accident history and a clear Carfax history, which is available. Note that per Virginia law, the license plates will be removed before transfer. The buyer will be responsible for reregistering the vehicle in order to legally operate it on Virginia roads.

NHTSA investigates FCA for SUVs that roll out of Park
Tue, Aug 25 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into the 2014 Dodge Durango and 2014-205 Jeep Grand Cherokee after 14 complaints of the SUVs rolling out of Park. An estimated 408,000 of them could be affected, if a recall is necessary. All of the current complaints submitted to NHTSA about the issue concern the Grand Cherokee, and the claims allege that the SUV can roll out of Park whether or not the engine is running. Some folks report that they check the indicator each time because the gear sometimes fails to engage. Among the 14 cases, there are five accounts of crashes and three injuries, including a situation with someone allegedly being rolled over. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations are meant to investigate "the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence" of a reported problem. They don't necessarily lead to a recall. Related Video: INVESTIGATION Subject : Unattended vehicle rollaway Date Investigation Opened: AUG 20, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15030 Component(s): POWER TRAIN All Products Associated with this Investigation Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) DODGE DURANGO 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2014-2015 Details Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 14 complaints (VOQs) alleging that after being placed in Park the subject vehicles have then rolled away from their parked position. The unintended motion has occurred with both the engine off and the engine running. ODI has also identified EWR field report data related to the alleged defect. The model year 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles are equipped with an electronic gear selector (shift-by-wire system). The gear selection is made by pressing the shifter-paddle forward or backwards; the shifter does not move along a gate path as with conventional gear selectors. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to asses the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence of the alleged defect. The VOQs associated with the opening of this investigation are: 10733158, 10730952, 10683556, 10679497, 10583366, 10725429, 10715401, 10711893, 10676998, 10668651, 10662619, 10662308, 10605865, and 10567538.
Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Dodge 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.
2014 Jeep Cherokee: June 2014
Wed, 09 Jul 2014I got a text message from Editor-In-Chief Sharon Carty one afternoon proclaiming that her new favorite SUV is our long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee. And she's not alone. I'm not sure if anyone else on staff would go so far as to use the "favorite" descriptor, but after just over a month of honeymooning with our new long-termer, it's safe to say that the Jeep is quickly finding its way into the good graces of a number of Autoblog staffers.
There's good reason for all that praise, too. Thus far, the Jeep has proven itself to be incredibly competent and comfortable for daily life - it's functional, quiet, and packed with a host of amenities that make it easy to live with. It's been wholly trouble-free (with less than 4,000 miles on the clock as of this writing, it ought to be), but even nitpicks have been few and far between.
