The 4.0 Liter straight six cylinder engine runs strong, the automatic transmission shifts smoothly. The 4-wheel drive (H and L) engages smoothly and operates normally. The engine starts right up, even on the coldest morning, even after sitting for a few days. The engine does not blow smoke or leak fluids, and passed a Virginia emission inspection in August 2013.

The upholstery is in good condition and is without tears, rips stains or marks, except for the side of the driver’s seat, which shows some cracking in the vinyl (see picture). The carpeting is in good shape (no rips, tears or stains) and there are 2 sets of floor mats (one set is rubber, one set is carpet like), but the floor mats are in worn condition (not shown in the photos). The rear seat folds forward for more cargo room, and this feature works correctly.

The Jeep is equipped with a trailer hitch and wiring to connect to the trailer (shown in the photos). The Jeep was used to haul a canoe, and the hitch was never overloaded. The after-market CD receiver includes the wiring to connect an amp (wiring includes: R/L audio, power and turn-on connections). An amp can be installed in the rear of the vehicle and the head unit can be set to drive a sub or full range amplification system. The CD receiver includes a remote control and includes various aux. connections on the front and back of the receiver. The CD receiver is connected to the built in speakers in the front doors and rear roof.

The Jeep’s paint is in good condition for a 15 year-old vehicle. There are some minor dings and scratches, and there is some minor rust. The pictures were taken right after a wash, and you can see the paint is still shinny. The car was garage kept for the first 10 years of life, and this was driven primarily as a commuter car to and from work.

The Jeep was a gift from an Aunt and Uncle for my son on his 16^th birthday in August 2013. The Aunt and Uncle where the original owners of the car, and was purchased by them in February 1999. The Jeep was occasionally used for travel with dogs, and although I cannot detect a pet smell, my son’s allergies were triggered, so the Jeep will not work out for him and we are selling it to buy something else. People with allergies may want check it out before bidding. The Jeep also has a low gas mileage, about 16-18 MPG, but the engine has not been tuned-up in a while, which might make a difference. Not all of the accessories function 100%. The power window switch at the driver’s door works correctly, but the window switches at the other doors operate intermittently. The power lock system does not lock the rear driver’s side door – the lock is gummed up and requires a lot of force to operate. It can be worked by hand with a lot of force. The remote lock fob stopped working when it got cold in October. I have changed the battery in the fob, but it does not work. The fob will be included in the auction. The AC needs to be recharged – we were told that the AC system has a slow leak and when charged up in the spring, it would last all summer. In August 2013 there was not any cold air. The heater blows nice and hot. The cruise control would not engage.

In August 2013, I needed to buy 4 new tires and have some front end suspension work done to get the Jeep to pass inspection in Virginia. My investment was $1200, which is where the auction starts. The mechanic recommended having rear suspension work done, as the original shocks were still on the car. I did not have rear suspension work done. The tires have about 500 miles on them, but they are all-season highway tires. If you are into 4-wheeling, you may want to consider different tires. The cold snap we had last week caused the windshield of the Jeep to crack. The crack is about 15 inches long and the windshield may need to be replaced depending on your state’s inspection requirements (see the pictures). Since this happened less than a week ago, I cannot say crack movement is complete. The first day it got a little bigger, but has not expanded since.

The Jeep has never let me down. It always starts up, runs strong and gets me where I need to go. I have been driving it as a commuter vehicle since August. The Jeep would be fine for a long distance drive as Aunt Betsy’s son delivered the Jeep to us after an 800 mile road trip.

Disclaimer: The Jeep is being offered as is. There is no guarantee or warranty offered with the sale of the vehicle. This is a 15 year old car and the seller recommends you see the vehicle in person to judge for yourself the quality of the vehicle.

Chrysler Recalls Jeep SUVs For Ignition Switches

Wed, Jul 23 2014

The ignition switch defects that engulfed General Motors are now a rapidly growing problem at Chrysler. Chrysler said Tuesday it is recalling up to 792,300 older Jeep SUVs worldwide because the ignition switches could fall out of the "run" position, shutting off the engine and disabling air bags as well as power-assisted steering and braking. That's the same problem that has forced GM to recall more than 15 million cars over the last six months. Chrysler's recall covers 2005-2007 Grand Cherokees and 2006-2007 Commanders. The company said it is not sure exactly how many will be recalled, but said it will notify customers by mid-September. Chrysler said an outside force such as a driver's knee can knock switches out of the "run" position. Engineers are working on a fix. The Auburn Hills, Michigan-based automaker, now part of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV, said it knows of no related injuries and only one accident. But it said owners should keep clearance between their knees and keys until repairs are made. Chrysler has now recalled more than 1.7 million vehicles for ignition-switch problems. In June, the company added 696,000 minivans and SUVs to a 2011 recall to fix faulty ignition switches. Those recalls covered Dodge Journey SUVs and Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan and Volkswagen Routan minivans - which Chrysler made for the German automaker - from the 2007 to 2010 model years. Tuesday's recall is the outgrowth of two investigations opened by U.S. safety regulators last month as part of a broader probe into ignition-switch and air-bag problems across the auto industry. The agency wouldn't say Tuesday whether its investigation could lead to recalls at other automakers. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in June that it was investigating Jeep Commanders and Grand Cherokees after getting 32 complaints that a driver's knee can hit the key fob or key chain, causing the ignition switch to move out of position. The federal investigation is still open. The agency said Tuesday that it is requesting additional information from Chrysler to ensure that its repairs will be effective. The investigations and recalls come after GM bungled an ignition-switch recall of older small cars. GM acknowledged that it knew of the ignition problem for more than a decade but failed to recall the cars until earlier this year, when it recalled 2.6 million small cars such as the Chevrolet Cobalt.

FCA is setting a five-year strategy: Here's how the last one played out

Thu, May 31 2018

We're slightly more than four years removed from Sergio Marchionne last five-year plan for FCA, a tell-all where the Italian-American automaker divulged its plans for the 2014 through 2018 model years. It was a grand affair, where Sergio told FCA investors that all was right in Auburn Hills, Alfa Romeo and Maserati were making comebacks, and the fifth-gen Dodge Viper received a mid-cycle refresh. You can read every last one of those past predictions right here. We're on our way to Europe to see Sergio's sequel, coming out Friday straight from FCA's Italian headquarters. (Bloomberg reports a plan to expand Jeep and Ram globally, combine Alfa Romeo and Maserati into a single division for an eventual spinoff, and downsizing Fiat and Chrysler. Also, EVs.) But before we arrive in Italy and find out exactly what Marchionne has planned for 2019 through 2023 as his last act as CEO, let's take a minute to tally up the results of his last term based on the same scoresheet we used in 2014. Now, we're only five months into 2018, so much of this — including vehicles like the Ram HD and Jeep Grand Wagoneer Â— could still debut this year. For those, we'll mark things TBD. We're not going to draw any conclusions or make any objectionable remarks. We're simply going to let the stats speak for themselves.

2nd annual Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards revealed

Tue, Jan 13 2015

There was some absolutely fantastic auto advertising in 2014, ranging from funny to inspiring. Marking the best of it from the past year, the Second Annual One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards were announced during the 2015 Detroit Auto Show (full disclosure: Autoblog was among the award's sponsors, and Editor-in-Chief Sharon Carty was a voter). Unlike previously, there were no brands with dominance over the list this time. Presented by The One Club, the awards have an international scope and hand out honors in a variety of categories. In the Broadcast TV group, there were three winners this year. First, there was The Scripted Life from Audi for the Q3 about breaking out of life's monotony. Also, Dad's Sixth Sense from Hyundai marketed the safety features in the Genesis. Finally, Unbreakable Drivers showed manly men being tested for the Toyota Hilux in Australia. The Online Video prize went to the fantastic The Epic Split spot from Volvo Trucks starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. The best Interactive ad was the Honda video titled The Other Side for the Civic Type R, and the Experiential Advertising nod was for the Volkswagen Eyes on the Road clip that showed the dangers of texting and driving to a theater full of moviegoers in Hong Kong. Finally, the Public Choice Award went to the BMW commercial called Hello Future using the words of sci-fi author Arthur C. Clarke for the i8. In the award not for videos, Jeep won the Print/Outdoor category for its Upside Down campaign. Check the ads out below, which show different animals when upside down. Also, look farther down for all of the winning videos and read their full announcements.

Winners will be presented on-stage at a special event during the NAIAS Press Preview on Tuesday, January 13, 2015, at the Cobo Center in Detroit at 4:55 p.m. The event is sponsored by AOL's Autoblog.
