 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4WD  A/C  Towing package  2000

We’re moving so need to sell our 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport with 4 Wheel Drive; A/C works well; towing package.  This vehicle has a few dings, but is in good condition in and out.  Started as a federal government vehicle, so was well maintained for most of its life. It has 221,696 miles.

Everything works that we know of except:
1.  Rear passenger window sometimes works only with either the window control or the driver control, but not both at first.  
2.  Radio works; we have never tried the CD player.  
3.  Rear window defrost button must be held down for defrost function to work.  
4.  We took the ‘covers’ off the wheel wells since the over-size tires rubbed with a heavy load, but still have them if you want to put them back on.  Since the tires are too large, they rub against the side sometimes when reversing and make a grinding sound. This also happens when 4x4 is engaged. 
5.  Headliner is loose - it’s all still there, but is definitely loose.  
6.  It was idling a bit strangely for a while, but I think when the new coil pack was installed it helped the idle, because I haven’t noticed it idling strange for months.            
7.  The one noticeable area of damage is on the passenger side, in front of the rear wheel well and is noticeable; the other small dent is on the front driver fender and shows in the main photo.  Other dings and scratches as expected with age.
8.  One of the headlights is dim and needs to be replaced; we have a new one, but haven’t installed it yet.  
9.  If you let it idle too long, it will overheat (in the summer) so I think they were made with too small a radiator - had the same problem with a Ford once; it didn't overheat while driving it around.  
Otherwise, that we know of, everything is OK.  Interior is in good shape.  Original seat covers and carpeting are all in good shape.  Pulls a trailer with no trouble at all.  4WD works.  Tires are excellent.  There is virtually no rust - very light surface rust on some suspension - see photo.  Email for more photos.

We are not mechanics, car is as is. We have listed the problems we are aware of. We are currently using the car and have no problems with it, but have no idea how it will perform if driven a long distance (we drove it to Maine from New Jersey a year ago however, and it was fine apart from overheating a few times in traffic or when idling), especially in hot weather (due to the over-heating problem), so please be aware that practically ALL used cars will have something that may need to be repaired.

$200 deposit via paypal within 24 hours of close of bidding, the rest as cash on pickup which must be on or before the weekend of July 26/27th.  207-255-3839.  Advertised locally so we reserve the right to cancel bidding.

IF YOU CAN'T PAY THE DEPOSIT IN ONE DAY, AND THE REST OF THE AMOUNT WITHIN ONE WEEK, PLEASE DO NOT BID. IF WE DO NOT RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT ON TIME, CAR WILL BE RE-LISTED OR SOLD TO SOMEONE ELSE.

Please note that car is located in downeast Maine.

Please check description periodically in case we add anything new within the next few days. If listing suddenly ends, it's because it was sold locally.

Jeep mulling power top for next Wrangler

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

Jeep is hard at work on the next-generation Wrangler, though the truck is still a few years from hitting the trails. The new model will still be aimed at off-roaders, but rumors suggest it will be a little more comfortable than previous versions to appeal to more people.
According to Road and Track, Jeep is developing a power-retractable top as an expensive option for the Wrangler. There is no word if the top in question is a sliding canvas rollback like the ones found on many European vehicles or a full convertible hardtop or softtop, nor do we know whether it would be made available on two- or four-door models. It might be a nice feature for some buyers but would certainly add complexity to a truck already known for its ruggedness. We asked Jeep for confirmation, but Jeep spokesperson Todd Goyer could only remind us that the company "can't comment about future products."
In news that is likely to irk the faithful, R&T reports the next model may also ditch its folding windshield for improved safety and possibly even get rid of its rear-mounted, full-size spare tire. The new Wrangler won't go completely soft, though, and will reportedly still feature removable doors and solid axles.

Chrysler recalls 468,700 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Commanders over rollaway risk

Mon, 13 May 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall covering a combined 469,000 units of the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2006-2010 Jeep Commander (inset). Of that number, 295,000 are in the US, roughly 33,000 in Canada and Mexico and the remainder in other markets. It seems an electrical fault in the transfer case can allow the affected SUVs to shift into neutral on their own, while an Associated Press report says that Chrysler had "found cracks in a circuit board that turns the four-wheel-drive system on and off." The issue was discovered when an owner started his car remotely and it rolled away.
Chrysler is expected to begin notifying owners in June 2013, who can then take their cars to dealers. The dealer will reflash the final drive controller free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.
