1986 Jeep Grand Wagoneer station wagon. 1 owner since new. Would be a great car to restore. 143K miles. Good running 360 V8/automatic. Doesn't smoke. Gold w/ tan leather interior. Power seats, windows, locks, fog lights, tow package. Was a daily driver until a couple years ago. Thought the starter had gone out and since I had another car didn't bother to mess with it. Come to find out a couple weeks ago it was just a bad battery. The car is super straight & never wrecked. The body does have some rust. Rear wheel wells and rockers have some small/moderate holes. Small patches of surface rust and bubbles on other parts of the body. Doors are all good. Roof edges above doors are rusty w/ some tiny holes that have been filled w/ silicone sealer. Car had some hail damage in 1992 and the hood & entire roof section were replaced which might explain the rust along the drip rails. There are patch panels available for most of the bad rust spots. Wood grain is worn off. Floors from underneath look good. Car was undercoated when it was purchased new so the chassis was well protected for most of its life. Interior is pretty good. A couple tears in the driver's seat, other seats are good, just worn. Carpet is decent, dash is good. Headliner was falling down & was stapled back up. Bumpers are great, grill has a small piece out of it, driver's side seatbelt is apart, door window trim nice, all glass is good.

The car runs good and will drive around the block but if you are going to drive it everyday I would check the belts, hoses, change fluids, tune-up, etc. since it's been sitting & probably replace the tires. Car doesn't like to move when it's been sitting but once it warms up it seems to go fine. May just need a transmission service. Transmission shifted fine before. 4WD does not work (bad transfer case). Runs fine in 2WD. Car shows 143K miles but may be closer to 148K as the odometer stopped working shortly before it was parked. Engine has only about 90K miles thanks to a dealer forgetting to put oil in after an oil change. Motor was replaced w/ a new Jeep crate motor at that point. A/C is not working. Blew cool but not cold before parked. Heat seems to work. Brakes are good. One rear door window doesn't work, opposite rear door doesn't open. Other door windows work fine, doors open/close solid. Tailgate window works good halfway. I think the rubber seal is hard & binding it. The rear window motor was replaced a few years ago. Front power seats work. Has an aftermarket AM/FM cassette player. Car is 99% complete. Missing a 2 hub cabs and ashtray covers. I do have the parts but as of writing this can't find them. 1 rear armrest is missing in the photos but I have since found it. Hood ornament and one wood grain strip is off but in the car. Car will need a battery. I have one to start it & show it runs but is not included. It's out of my truck and is too tall to shut the hood. Clear Kansas title. Car was well maintained most of it's life at the local Jeep dealer. A lot of good memories in this car and would love to find a good home for it. Certainly worth restoring! If you need further information I can be reached at 913-221-5666. Car is for sale locally as well.

Jeep to stop using bad Takata airbag inflators next week

Tue, Jun 21 2016

FCA is gradually ceasing to produce vehicles equipped with Takata airbag inflaters found to be inherently faulty. These airbags, which lack a certain drying agent, have been linked with dangerous premature ruptures. According to FCA, the only vehicle still in production with the named airbag is the 2016 Jeep Wrangler, and in this case they are passenger-side airbags. Fiat Chrysler says it isn't aware of any incidents involving these air bag inflaters in Jeeps, but amidst concerns that vehicles with failure-prone airbags are still being marketed to customers, North American-market 2016 Wranglers will cease to be equipped with them starting next week. As per FCA's statement, global production is expected to end by mid-September. In addition to Toledo, Ohio, the Wrangler is produced in Egypt. FCA isn't going to sell the cars with the deemed-faulty airbags without disclosing the fact to the customers: anyone buying a 2016 Wrangler will be notified that the vehicle will most likely be subject to a recall in the future, even if there is not currently a recall announced for them. NHTSA has specified a "Coordinated Remedy Program" recall schedule for the coming years, and the airbag inflaters will degrade over a time frame of several years, when subjected to a humid environment.

Jeep going bigger with new Grand Wagoneer, smaller with sub-Renegade?

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

The headlines are still rolling in for the new Renegade that Jeep unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show last week, but already reports are surfacing, citing sources within the company, about what Chrysler's iconic off-road brand will do next.
Speaking with Auto Express (whose reports we tend to take with a grain of salt or two), Jeep chief Mike Manley suggested that two courses of action are currently under consideration at Auburn Hills to develop two very different new models - one smaller and one larger than anything Jeep currently makes.
One plan would be to make an SUV or crossover even smaller than the new Renegade, although it isn't immediately clear what platform it would take. The Renegade (pictured above in Trailhawk spec) will be built in Italy alongside Fiat's upcoming 500X, but uses a heavily modified platform. We figure the smaller model, if approved, could base itself on the new Fiat Panda Cross.
