Ultra Rare Spinnaker Blue 1991 Grand Wagoneer With Factory Sunroof No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars
Chester, Virginia, United States
|
Back in 1990 Chrysler Jeep decided to discontinue the American iconic vehicle known as the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. With a limited production of only 1560 being built for the 1991 model year, these are the most desired. Today this auction is for the rarest 1991 Grand Wagoneer that exists. In 1991 Spinnaker Blue was only offered on a custom ordered Jeep. According to Chrysler archives only 27 were ordered and only two were ordered with the factory sunroof. Well here is one of the two built. Will you find another in the US? No, the other is in Luxemburg in Western Europe.
Now this particular truck was a sunny weather truck that was kept in an acclimated garage for the first 21 yrs of its life. I have pampered the truck for the last two years. Truck recently was painted back the original Spinnaker Blue Pearl color. The paint on this truck was over 3k in just materials. It is absolutely stunning in every aspect. The wood grain vinyl is the same that was applied at the factory which you can tell by the edge bump guards. There are a few nicks in it but hey the truck has 63k miles can we expect it to be perfect. The trim moldings are beautiful. The stainless has all been polished to show room shine. The windshield is brand new and has brand new rubber gasket as well. There are no leaks even from the factory installed sunroof. The correct sized whitewall tires are brand new and still have the factory paint lines on them as well as the nubs. A lot of attention was paid to the underside of this truck, there was over 50 hours of detail work done there. Looks as if it was new. Even though the factory foglights are not shown in the pictures they are included, they are left off to protect them during transport.
The interior is in excellent shape for being original; just take a look at the pictures. As told many times in life pictures speak a thousand words. Thanks that saves me on typing. The original radio is included with the sale but an aftermarket CD player is installed. The carpet is the same carpet that came with the Jeep. There is no substitute for the factory carpet. The aftermarket carpet is too thin and does not have the plush appearance of the original. The headliner in the Jeep is brand new and was just installed. The seats are free of any tears or major cracks; you just don’t find them in the condition of this one.
Mechanically this truck is perfect. The engine has had a complete reseal done. All new gaskets as well as head gaskets and new oil pump. Even warm this one holds 45 psi oil pressure. The transmission is brand new with all new internals. All fluids in engine, transmission, transfer case, differentials, antifreeze and brakes are new. This is the truck you want if you are looking for dependability. The truck will include a full tank of ethanol free gas for the new owner, because with this truck you might not want to drive it every day, it is not replaceable. Again this truck is only one of two built. I wish I could keep this particular Jeep but there have been many things come up recently that it must go. Parts for these trucks are readily available from Teamgrandwagoneer.com. OK now the must add part. A 2000 dollar deposit must be made within 24 hours of auctions end. I will not offer second chance so if you receive a second chance offer it is not legitimate. Final payment is due within 7 days of auctions end by means of a bank wire or cash. I reserve the right to stop this auction for a local sale. I have it listed elsewhere on the internet and have many interested but trying to find the funding. If you would like to make an offer feel free to do so. If you need to arrange financing please do so before bidding and not after. If you need to ask permission from anyone mom, dad, wife, neighbor, in laws please ask first not after bidding. Please remember this is an extremely rare truck and the twin to this truck sold two months ago for 65k.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee probed by NHTSA for brake problems
Sun, Jun 7 2015Remember how Toyota got in all kinds of trouble over unintended acceleration? Well, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating Jeep over unintended braking. NHTSA has announced a probe of 20,000 Grand Cherokee SUVs from model year 2014. Nine complaints have been received, with owners alleging that their Jeeps have issued brake warnings or gone ahead and applied the brakes when no threat was presented. Each complaint alleges that the vehicles have exhibited this behavior repeatedly, leading to a "sudden reduction in vehicle speed in traffic." So basically, a system designed to prevent accidents could actually increase the odds of a collision happening. Speaking to the Associated Press, Jeep spokesperson Eric Mayne said owners whose vehicles are exhibiting this behavior should report to dealers, while adding that the automatic braking/adaptive cruise control systems can be deactivated. Related Video: Scroll down for the official bulletin on the investigation from NHTSA. Date Investigation Opened: JUN 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15021 Component(s): FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received nine complaints alleging inappropriate activations of the autonomous braking system in model year (MY) 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles. All nine reports alleged unexpected braking incidents preceded by collision imminent brake warnings and resulting in sudden reduction in vehicle speed in traffic. Two complaints reported autonomous braking incidents with no objects on the road resulting in rapid increase in brake force and anti-lock braking system (ABS) activations. The complaints alleged experiencing multiple events at different locations and road conditions. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to assess the frequency, scope and consequences of the alleged defect. The following VOQ numbers are associated with the issues discussed in this resume: 10543837, 10713629, 10690650, 10663320, 10630362, 10596913, 10533622, 10533524, 10651269.

Jeep 'trailer hitch' recall repair rates lag amidst reports of new death
Sat, Jan 10 2015The problem with exploding fuel tanks in the 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty in some rear collisions continues to be a problem for FCA US, formerly Chrysler. The campaign to fix the utility vehicles was first announced in June 2013 after 51 claimed fatalities, and the fixes reportedly began in January 2014. However, there continue to be new deaths blaming the problem in unrepaired models, according to The Detroit News, citing data from the Center for Auto Safety. The automaker initially refused NHTSA's pressuring to conduct a recall because the models met applicable crash standards when they were manufactured, but eventually, there was a compromise to inspect and fix about 1.56 million Jeeps. With the fuel tank located between the rear axle and bumper, the unusual fix was to install a trailer hitch for extra protection. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration later agreed that the change would provide added safety in lower to medium speed crashes, but not high-speed crashes. The most recent fatality, according to The Detroit News, occurred on a Michigan freeway in November 2014 when a pregnant woman in a 2003 Liberty was rear-ended when traffic slowed. Her Jeep impacted the vehicle in front, rolled over and a fire resulted. The family reportedly plans to file a lawsuit against FCA. At issue has been the rate at which the vehicles are being fixed. In July 2014, the automaker estimated it could have all of the vehicles repaired by March 2015 thanks to additional hitch supplies. But by November, NHTSA claimed that only three percent of the recalled models had been fixed. FCA says it continues to work to notify owners, though. According to Chrysler spokesperson Eric Mayne to Autoblog, "We are processing approximately 1,200 vehicles per day. Every owner who schedules service is receiving service. As of Jan. 8, that total was 193,490." The company has also mailed out over two million notifications to owners, more than the number officially called in. Given the age of these Jeeps, many of them have had multiple owners, and historically, the older a vehicle is, the less likely the recall fixes are to be carried out. FCA is currently creating a video urging people to have the hitch installed to be released soon.
