1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer on 2040-cars
Old Saybrook, Connecticut, United States
For Auction is a 1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. This Jeep is in great condition for a 26 year old vehicle. It lived its whole life in Colorado. It looks and drives great. The reserve price is reasonable.
Mechanically, the Jeep has been gone through top to bottom. It recently passed strict Colorado emission testing with flying colors. All of the original emission control equipment is intact and functional. The engine is strong and starts easily. The 4 wheel drive and cruise control work as they should. The transmission shifts smoothly. The Jeep drives very well. The interior is in great condition. The leather seats are not torn. A/C blows ice cold. All power windows including tailgate were recently serviced and work well. Power seats work perfectly. Power door locks are sometimes a little sticky but work well. The headliner is sagging but not torn. The carpet in the rear cargo area is torn in the corners. The power mirror switch is faulty. The windshield wiper system is "sticky" but works fine. The exterior looks very good, There is almost no rust except for two small spots as shown in the pictures on the front fender and rear quarter panel. The wood surround is in very good shape for the age, the paneling has some peeling. The paint is fading on the left side and the clear coat is peeling on the roof and some other areas. The frame and under-body have virtually no rust. Many new parts were recently installed for the following systems: Emissions: A California compliant catalytic converter (over $400), carbon canister, EGR valve, PCV valve, special curved PCV hose, miscellaneous vacuum hoses. Suspension: Rancho shocks, steering stabilizer, transmission mount. Cooling: Water pump, thermostat, radiator hoses, heater hoses, heater core, fan clutch, used radiator with low miles. Fuel system: Fuel pump, accelerator pump, fuel filter, misc fuel lines. Ignition system: spark plug wires, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, ignition coil, battery. Engine mechanical: drive belts, valve cover gaskets. Trim: Outer window wipes, and inner tailgate wipe. The transmission fluid and filter were recently serviced, as well as differential fluids, and front wheel bearings. There are some issues to be expected on a 26 year old vehicle. The engine and transmission do have minor leaks as could be expected on a vehicle of this age. It will need a muffler soon, all other exhaust components are in excellent condition. The tires are "out of round" from sitting but still have 90% tread. I have been as thorough as possible in the description, so a potential buyer can bid with confidence. I believe that this is a very nice example of these classic Jeeps. It would be a great candidate for a complete restoration, or just driven as is. It should have no trouble passing safety or emission inspection in any state. I recently drove this Jeep from Colorado to Connecticut, over 1500 miles and wouldn't hesitate driving it across country again. A $750 dollar deposit via paypal will be required within 48 hours after the auction ends. Remaining balance in cash or certified check or bank transfer. During regular business hours at a local bank. Any bidder with less than 5 feedback must contact me before placing bids. The Jeep is located in Old Saybrook, CT. Local pickup only. I will consider driving the vehicle a short distance if buyer wishes to arrange and pay for shipping, and payment is complete. All arrangements must be made before conclusion of auction. Additional pictures are available. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you and happy bidding. |

FCA issuing software update for 1.4M vehicles to prevent hacking
Fri, Jul 24 2015In the wake of a Jeep Cherokee being hacked remotely while on the road through its Uconnect infotainment system, FCA US is now issuing a software update for 1.4 million vehicles in the United States. Affected customers will receive a USB stick in the mail with the improved version; owners can check this website to see if their cars are affected. A large variety of models with FCA's 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system are affected. They include the 2015 Chrysler 200, 2015 Chrysler 300, 2015 Dodge Charger, and 2015 Dodge Challenger; 2013-2015 Dodge Viper; 2013-2015 Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500; 2013-2015 Ram 3500, 4500, and 5500 chassis cab; 2014-2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Cherokee; and 2014-2015 Dodge Durango. According to FCA in its announcement, the new software "insulates connected vehicles from remote manipulation." As of July 23, the company also "fully tested and implemented within the cellular network" additional security to prevent access to many of a vehicle's systems. FCA US says that it's conducting this campaign out of an abundance of caution and disputes the notion that there's a defect with these vehicles. Beyond the demonstration of the hack in the Cherokee, the automaker says that it's unaware of any other reports of these attacks actually happening. Related Video: Statement: Software Update July 24, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is conducting a voluntary safety recall to update software in approximately 1,400,000 U.S. vehicles equipped with certain radios. The recall aligns with an ongoing software distribution that insulates connected vehicles from remote manipulation, which, if unauthorized, constitutes criminal action. Further, FCA US has applied network-level security measures to prevent the type of remote manipulation demonstrated in a recent media report. These measures – which required no customer or dealer actions – block remote access to certain vehicle systems and were fully tested and implemented within the cellular network on July 23, 2015. The Company is unaware of any injuries related to software exploitation, nor is it aware of any related complaints, warranty claims or accidents – independent of the media demonstration.
2014 Jeep Cherokee: Fall colors tour [w/video]
Thu, Dec 11 2014The Trailhawk's rugged good looks were right at home against the backdrop of changing seasons. Regardless of where you choose to call home, you've probably seen, or at least heard, about the Pure Michigan ads, showing off all the splendor that the Mitten State has to offer. You can make fun of them all you want (several spoofs already exist), but as a native, I fully stand behind the idea that Michigan is a truly gorgeous place. The western coast along Lake Michigan and the northern half of the Lower Peninsula are seriously pretty, and vastly different from the southeastern area that houses big cities like Detroit, Ann Arbor, Flint, and so on. Beyond that, the Upper Peninsula is the closest you'll get to seeing vast spoils of untouched wilderness, and trust me – it's truly pretty. I've seen the world, but I still feel all warm and fuzzy every time I venture north to experience all the vistas that my own state has to offer. In the autumn months, the changing leaves in Michigan put on quite a display. Sure, this happens all over the world, but we truly embrace autumn in the Wolverine State, and practically every Detroit-based Autoblog staffer has gone on at least one fall colors tour to the northern Lower Peninsula to take it all in. That's exactly what associate multimedia producer Chris McGraw and I did just over a month ago, behind the wheel of our long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee. The Trailhawk's rugged good looks were right at home against the backdrop of changing seasons, and we opted to capture the whole experience on video for this latest long-term update. The Tunnel of Trees is a picturesque stretch of Michigan's M-119 highway that starts just northeast of Petoskey. As you can see in the video above, the Tunnel of Trees is a picturesque stretch of Michigan's M-119 highway that starts just northeast of Petoskey and follows Lake Michigan's Little Traverse Bay. This winding road through the woods goes on for nearly 30 miles, largely unobstructed by neighborhoods, fueling stations, shops, or roadside fodder, and spits you out at the famous Legs Inn in Harbor Springs. (Top-notch Polish food, if you're hungry.) From there, you can either continue north toward Mackinac City and the Mackinac Bridge that connects Michigan's lower and upper peninsulas, or you can turn around and take in all the goodness again.
Stellantis to offer electric versions of most of its European lineup by 2025
Thu, Apr 15 2021Newly merged automaker conglomerate Stellantis will offer electric versions of almost all of its European lineup by 2025, it said on Thursday, as the auto industry faces regulatory pushes in Europe and China to accelerate the shift to zero-emission cars. Formed in January by the merger of France's PSA and Italian-American group Fiat Chrysler, Stellantis is the world’s fourth largest carmaker with 14 brands including Opel, Jeep, Ram and Maserati, and like its peers faces an investor community keen for a road map to an electric lineup to rival Tesla . Speaking during Stellantis' first annual shareholders meeting, Chief Executive Carlos Tavares said that in 2021 the carmaker expects sales of electrified vehicles — that is, both plug-in hybrids and fully electric models — to more than triple to over 400,000 units in 2021. By 2025, electrified vehicles should make up 38% of European sales, a huge jump from the 14% of sales it expects in 2021. Tavares said by 2030 electric models should make up 70% of European sales and 35% of U.S. sales. He said Stellantis will use four electric platforms for passenger vehicles across its 14-brand empire — small, medium and large sizes for cars, and "frame" for high-margin SUVs and pickup trucks. Sweden's Volvo said this month its lineup would be fully electric by 2030, and Ford Motor Co said in February its lineup in Europe would be too. BMW has said at least 50% of its car sales should be fully-electric models by 2030. Sales of electric and plug-in hybrid cars in the European Union almost trebled to over 1 million vehicles last year, accounting for more than 10% of overall sales.
