Jeep Grand Wagoneer Great Off Road Project Or Parts Vehicle on 2040-cars
Bay Minette, Alabama, United States
This jeep is rough. See the pictures. I have owned the jeep for about 10 years and it has been a great off roading jeep and even a daily driver at times when needed. It comes with the four extra rims and all terrain tires seen in the photos. The AMC 360 starts right up with no knocking and only smokes for a few minutes after sitting up for a longer period of time. It has a TF 727 3 speed transmission that was rebuilt about 7 years ago. It has a functional 229 transfer case and it has no problem getting out of 4 low. Recently the vacuum activated 4 wheel drive developed a leak near the switch under the dash and it should be an easy fix. Before this leak the 4 wheel drive worked great and shifted on the fly. It currently has mud tires, as seen in the pics) but they are older and need to be replaced. It does have all four center caps and two of the rims have center caps, and for the wagonner fans it has a functional clock. AC worked the last time I charged the system. I had planned to build a tube frame and turn it into a fun off roading jeep. I no longer have space for it in my yard. To many other projects. Please feel free to ask questions. I say again this is a parts/project vehicle. There are lots of little things that need fixing and I do not wish to misrepresent what you are getting. Drive train is solid, but it does leak fluid from the front main and the power steering reservoir leaks fluid. You will have no problems with cutting and welding on this old girl to build up to what ever you would like. Frame is solid with no rust. It does have 2 inch add a leafs but one spring pack got slightly damaged on my last rock crawling venture. The paint is faded, but the jeep is pained in durabak coating. Please email with any questions. Actually mileage is unknown. The dash gauge cluster has been changed out.

NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022
Thu, Mar 17 2016The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.
Star Trek actor's death may be linked to Jeep shifter issue
Mon, Jun 20 2016The tragic death of Anton Yelchin on Sunday may have resulted from a known design flaw with his Jeep Grand Cherokee. The 27-year-old actor, best known for playing Pavel Chekov in the latest Star Trek movies, was reportedly crushed when his vehicle rolled backwards down the driveway in front of his house, pinning him against a brick pillar and metal gate. The 2014-15 Grand Cherokee was one of three models (alongside the Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 sedans) that Fiat Chrysler recalled this past April due to roll-away risk. The vehicle was equipped with an unintuitive "e-shifter" that didn't deliver the usual tactile response of being shifted into position, leading to numerous drivers exiting the vehicle mistakenly thinking that it was in Park. The problem was reported to have resulted in 41 injuries – and now possibly Yelchin's death as well. The manufacturer stated at the time of the recall that "the vehicles involved in these events were inspected and no evidence of equipment failure was found." It determined that while the vehicle warned occupants if the driver's-side door was opened while the engine was running and the transmission not in the Park position, such measures may have been insufficient. Its remedy for the problem involved updating the vehicle software to better warn drivers in such an event, and changing the design for subsequent models. "Regarding the recall," an FCA spokesman told Autoblog, "I can confirm notices were mailed to affected customers. Included in those notices were tip sheets describing proper operation of the shifter. This supplemental information echoes the instructions in the owner's manual." Yelchin was born March 11, 1989, in St. Petersburg, Russia. His parents were a figure-skating pair, and defected to the United States when Anton was just six months old. In the prime of his career, Yelchin had several films currently in development, including Star Trek Beyond, set to reach theaters next month. His body was reportedly discovered by friends when he didn't show up for rehearsal. Related Video:
