1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, 99,410 miles.  2nd Owner, it was bought used in 2002.  It has been well maintained and has been an incredibly reliable car.  I take good care of my cars and this one is no exception.  This one has been very lightly used over the last 5 years, driven once a week.  The result is a mechanically sound, low-mileage car with a clean interior.  It has never failed a North Carolina state inspection.  My other cars are Mercedes, and I had my usual Mercedes mechanic inspect this recently, he said its in great shape and sees no problems.  The only thing he mentioned was that the usual rubber suspension joints (ball joint, bushings, etc) could optionally be replaced.  This is a smoke-free vehicle.

Pros:
  • New tires
  • Clean interior
  • New battery
  • Alpine CD player
  • Low miles, its very hard to find one of these w/ less than 100,000 miles on it.
  • No fluid leaks whatsoever.
  • A/C blows very hard and cold, no problem whatsoever with it.
  • Windows all work perfectly
  • Interior overall very clean
  • Catalytic converter replaced 10,000 miles ago, so no rattling.  
  • Oil changes every 3,000 miles religiously

Issues:
  • The tail-gate does not open.  I was rear-ended in a low-speed collision and it broke the latch mechanism.  There is a minor cosmetic dent in the tailgate, as well as the bottom right side of the rear bumper.  There is no other damage from the incident.  The rear-window DOES still function correctly, but it needs new shocks to hold it open.
  • Rear auto-door locks don't work, need to be locked and unlocked manually.  Front 2 door locks perfectly, this is only the rear passenger doors.
  • The interior headliner is coming loose around the edges, a very common problem with older jeeps. 

About me, I have been buying and selling on ebay for over 15 years and have perfect feedback.  I always do my best to disclose the pros and cons of every item, and to take high quality pictures so the buyer knows what he or she will be getting.

FCA and ZF issue recall on nine-speed automatic transmission

Tue, Aug 9 2016

After years of complaints, German transmission manufacturer ZF is finally issuing a recall of its much maligned 9HP nine-speed automatic transmission. Although it has been criticized for a number of issues, ZF is issuing the recall to address the possibility of the transmission unexpectedly shifting into neutral. The issue covers 505,000 vehicles in the United States alone. This issue is related to an improper crimp on the transmission wiring harness. Rather than a physical fix, ZF is issuing a software update to remedy the problem. The company doesn't recommend dealers attempt to fix the crimp. Although the transmission can be found in a number of models by various manufacturers, currently only those from FCA are being recalled. This is the second recall in less than a year related to a ZF transmission shifting into neutral. FCA recently recalled more than a million vehicles worldwide because of a poorly designed shifter for ZF's 8HP eight-speed automatic. That issue may have resulted in the death of actor Anton Yelchin in June. Although there are no deaths related to this new recall, NHTSA reports that the issue has resulted in at least 10 injuries. Issues with the transmission have been known for years. A number of software updates have attempted to address various problems, making us wonder if there could be a fundamental hardware issue as the complaints span across a number of automakers. Vehicles equipped with the 9HP include 2014 and newer versions of the V6 Acura TLX, Chrysler 200, Fiat 500X, upper-level Honda Pilots, Jeep Cherokee and Renegade, Land Rover Discovery Sport and Range Rover Evoque, and Ram ProMaster City. Only FCA is issuing a recall and only on 2014 and 2015 models. Related Video: News Source: NHTSA Recalls Chrysler Fiat Jeep Safety FCA nine-speed transmission

Jeep adds top-level, $35,690 Cherokee Overland trim [UPDATE]

Thu, Jan 14 2016

UPDATE: We initially received incorrect pricing information. FCA says the Cherokee Overland will cost $35,690, including $995 for destination. If you want a more luxurious Jeep, you buy a Grand Cherokee Overland or Summit. But if the idea of dropping $45,000 to $51,000 gives you pause, you'll welcome the news that FCA's off-road brand will introduce a luxury-oriented version of its smaller, more affordable Cherokee. The new Cherokee Overland incorporates a number of cosmetic changes. All of the black plastic body elements have been replaced with body-colored items, improving the overall aesthetic. Jeep fitted handsome, polished 18-inch wheels along with chrome trim on the upper and lower grilles, and the halogen headlights have been swapped with standard bi-xenon units. Previously, the HID headlights were only available as part of an $1,845 Luxury Pack on the Cherokee Limited. In the cabin, the biggest change is found on the seats, where Nappa leather comes standard along with heating and ventilation functions. The steering wheel gets Zebrano wood trim, and instrument panel is wrapped in leather. Beyond that, the Overland is unsurprisingly well-equipped, with an Alpine Premium Audio system, FCA's excellent 8.4-inch UConnect system with navigation, and blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic alert. The three big optional extras include the Cherokee's 3.2-liter V6, the Jeep Active Drive II all-wheel-drive system, and the Technology Group (auto high beams, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, forward collision warning, collision mitigation braking, park assist, adaptive cruise, front and rear park assist with rear stop, and automatic windshield wipers). Owners will also be able to snag a sunroof and a couple of smaller items, like a wireless charging pad. Prices for the Cherokee Overland start at $35,690 (including destination) with sales to begin this spring. Read on for the official announcement from Jeep. Jeep® Expands Cherokee Lineup with Premium Overland Model • New 2016 Jeep® Cherokee Overland debuts at New England International Auto Show • More premium Jeep Cherokee model boasts an unmatched combination of luxury and capability in the mid-size SUV segment • Cherokee Overland delivers sophisticated styling, a well-appointed interior, a long list of premium standard features, and legendary Jeep capability • New premium Cherokee Overland available in Jeep showrooms this spring • Jeep Cherokee sales increased 23 percent in 2015 BOSTON, Jan.
