This is a great running vehicle! We've owned this 2000 Jeep Cherokee since 2008 and it's helped get us through many snowstorms and blizzards here in Iowa. The 4WD works great, A/C runs great, cruise control works! This wonderful hardy Jeep comes with the tow package and was part of a fleet package that was used for the DNR. There is no carpet on the floors so it's rubber floors for easy cleaning if you like to go mudding! We've driven the vehicle almost daily until we got our truck. The Jeep is too small for what we need now and needs to go to a good home. Of course, being almost 15 years old, it does needs some TLC. The tires have about 30% tread but looks like they are getting weather checked. I've driven on these tires the way they are and no problems. The Jeep does have a wobble and we are told it's the track bar so I suggest not driving it until this is fixed the wobble does get bad at times. The track bar is easily $25-40 on the internet and told an easy fix but we don't have a place to fix it right now. The exhaust is loud and will need some work or replaced. And the lock button on the driver's side will sometimes not unlock so then other passengers can't open or close the windows themselves it would have to be done by the driver. Looks are deceiving for sure! As you can see in the photos it does have rust, one spot is completely rusted through on the outside of the back passenger door, it's been an outdoor vehicle for years! The grill is cracked but nothing to be concerned about and the passenger side is dented in from the deer that decided to use it as target practice. The front passenger door is harder to open due to the deer but I still get in it fine. The Jeep has 176,404 miles at the time of the photos and we haven't driven it much since then so it may just have a few more miles on it. This vehicle would make a great work car, school car, or just a winter driver for the harsh winters! Hate to see it go but we don't have the room and upgraded to a 4 door truck and I have been told it's too small for a family vehicle now so it must go! $1500 obo takes it!

Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia.

FCA facing class-action lawsuit over Grand Cherokee shifters

Fri, Jun 24 2016

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is now facing a multi-million-dollar class-action lawsuit over the recalled shifter design in the 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the 2012 to 2014 Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300. Grand Cherokee owners, galvanized by Star Trek actor Anton Yelchin's fatal accident, filed the suit. According to The Wall Street Journal, the owners allege that FCA concealed the shifter's problems. On top of restitution, the class action suit is demanding a court order force FCA to issue a do-not-drive warning to owners of affected vehicles until it fixes the problem. FCA started distributing a software fix to dealers last week – according to the WSJ, the update will add more warnings about the shifter's position and will automatically kick the vehicle into park if the driver steps out. FCA's shifter problems have been bubbling under the surface as part of the company's recall issues. The US government dinged FCA with a $105 million fine last year for its recall practices (or lack thereof) last year, but things have exploded this week after Yelchin's death. The 27-year-old, best known for playing Ensign Pavel Chekov in the rebooted Star Trek film series, was killed after his 2015 Grand Cherokee rolled down his driveway and pinned the actor against a security gate. According to Jeep CEO Mike Manley, the company will dispatch engineers to analyze Yelchin's vehicle. Related Video:
