2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited Sport Utility 4-door 4.7l on 2040-cars
Batavia, Illinois, United States
I'm hoping to sell this 2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE to a MECHANIC or CAR ENTHUSIAST who is good at fixing cars and appreciates the very low mileage on this OTHERWISE GREAT vehicle. I know that the power steering pump needs to be replaced, and more than likely the hydraulic-operated fan motor that accompanies the pump. I'm a single, divorced mom, or else I WOULD be keeping this vehicle and paying to have it fixed myself. I LOVE my Jeep, but I can't afford to have it fixed. ---The coolant leaks occasionally, too. Thermostat seal was replaced in December 2011. ---Recently received a safety recall notice in the mail from Chrysler (M35/NHTSA 12V-527): The airbag system Occupant Restraint Control may experience a front airbag and/or seatbelt pretensioner inadvertent deployment. Chrysler will repair your vehicle free of charge (parts and labor). I haven't had the repairs done myself simply because, again, the car is not drivable at this time. This recall paperwork will be included with the title to the Jeep, and it includes the VIN. ---Malfunction Indicator Light just went on while I've been starting the car in the garage; I'm assuming it's because of the issues with the fan motor, etc. The car hasn't been driven, so I don't know what else would suddenly cause this problem. It's never been in an accident, and it has 93,352 miles on it - great for a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I also added a remote automatic start to it for the cold Chicago winters. My ex and I bought it barely used from the dealership with 27,743 miles on it in December 2004 from Arlington Lexus in Palatine. I believe the original owner smoked inside the car - after a rainy or muggy day when we first bought the car you could detect a hint of cigarette smoke smell, but neither my ex nor I smoke, and no one else has smoked in the Jeep since we've owned it. Because the power-steering does not work, this vehicle is not drivable right now. It has been in my garage, out of the elements, and I last started it on Friday to read its current mileage. It can be backed straight out of the garage. So, a buyer would need access to a tow truck. I am a full-time mom, so I can be available most days for pick-up of the vehicle, title exchange, etc. Serious buyers only, please. I'm being upfront about this vehicle's condition, so I expect an equally honest buyer. Kelley Blue Book Trade in Value of this vehicle at its current mileage with all options ranges from $4201 (trade-in value) to $5731 (sold to private party) at FAIR CONDITION (defined as follows - and I bolded the ones that I think apply; the interior of the car is in excellent condition, and except for a few expected dents, so is the exterior): Fair- 18% of all cars we valueHas some cosmetic defects that require repairing and/or replacing

Alfa Romeo will gain a Jeep Compass-based SUV
Fri, Nov 30 2018It was reported earlier this week that FCA would invest into its Italian factories to ramp up production at currently underutilized locations. Those plans have now been clarified with official information from FCA, as reported by Automotive News. The entire investment is worth $5.7 billion. First of all, Alfa Romeo will gain a new compact SUV based on the Jeep Compass architecture. The still-unnamed model will be available as a plug-in hybrid, and it will be built in Pomigliano, Italy. No U.S. availability has yet been announced, but it would not be odd to see the Compass-based model sold below the Stelvio in the States. The last time Alfa Romeo had anything similar in its model portfolio was when it offered Crosswagon-badged four-wheel-drive versions of the 156 and 159 wagons. As for the Jeep Compass itself, it will begin to be built at the Melfi plant in Italy. The rumored small "baby" Jeep slotting under the Renegade has not yet been officially mentioned. Fiat will introduce a battery electric 500, built in Turin, and the Pomigliano plant that will make the compact Alfa Romeo SUV will also be used to build a mild hybrid version of the Panda city car. The 500X will gain a PHEV variant. The Stelvio platform will also spawn a corresponding SUV for Maserati, and FCA also mentioned Maserati will introduce a new, unnamed model it will make in Modena. Automotive News quotes Italian press as saying this will be the Alfieri coupe and convertible, also offered as battery electric versions. Related Video:
Federal investigations about safety of rear-mounted gas tanks is nothing new
Sun, 09 Jun 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Chrysler are currently making waves in our daily news feeds due to a disagreement over the safety of a few million Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models. Specifically, NHTSA has asked Chrysler to recall the SUVs because of the location of their fuel tanks, but you may be interested to know that requests such as this are nothing new.
Besides the two Jeep models, NHTSA has launched investigations over the years in such models as the Ford Crown Victoria (and its police-car counterpart), GM pickups built between 1972 and 1987, and rather famously the Ford Pinto.
Understanding how automakers and NHTSA have dealt with fuel-tank-safety concerns in the past may offer a better understanding of how Chrysler and the government agency will settle their current dispute. Check out the complete article from The Detroit News here.
