1999 Jeep Wrangler Se Sport Utility 2-door 2.5l 5-speed With Ac on 2040-cars
Evansville, Indiana, United States
|
Up for auction is a good friend of mine's Jeep. It's a 1999 Wrangler 4 cylinder 5-Speed with Air Conditioning. She bought this about 3.5 years ago with 127,092 on it and it now has just over 129,291miles. So she's put almost exactly 2,200 miles on it in over 3 years. She bought it as a second vehicle/toy and just hasn't gotten much use out of it. When she bought it we found a brand new set of take off rims and tires off a new Jeep with just 50 or so miles on them. So the tires and wheels have about 2,200 miles on them as well. We had to add a 3" lift (which consisted of new springs and shocks) for the tires to fit. This made the jeep a little harder for her to get into and she just hasn't driven it much mostly I think cause of this. So the tires and wheels have about 2,200 miles on them as well. The speedometer is now a little slow due to the taller tires, but doesn't effect the way it drives. She also had the front end aligned after the lift so it would wear the tires even.
The Jeep is in pretty good shape and came out of the south. We drove to Tennessee to get it as I didn't want her to get a rusty one. This one is really clean for the year, and one of the cleanest Jeeps I have looked under. It is a 1999 and has 129K on it so it's not perfect but I helped her buy this and I am really pretty picky. The interior in in good shape minus a couple wear places mostly on the driver's seat as pictured. The top doesn't leek and seems to work like it should. The rear window zipper is kind of a pain but it still works. I think everything in the Jeep works like it should except the radio. It always has worked but today we couldn't get it to work? I haven't looked into it is an aftermarket radio and not the factory one so it should be easy to replace if you so wish. The jeep was really clean original condition when she bought it and it looked like it had been cared for. It was not muddy and had not been cleaned up. Meaning I don't think it was ever took off-roading. Since she has owned it, it has been to the local State DNR off road park 3 times. She always took the beginner trails and it was not serious off roading. It did get a little mud on the top (which is really hard to clean off by the way) but otherwise it's been on the road it's entire life as best I can tell. The hood was repainted at some point, but the rest of the paint looks factory. I don't see any dent repairs in the hood from the under side so I am not really sure why it was repainted but the color is just off enough you can barely tell. There is a few rock chips, and scratches and one scratch I included a picture of that is hidden by the spare tire. it was like that when she bought it. Please ask any questions and I will try and get back to you as soon as I can. The jeep is parked at my house and it has a clean clear title in my friend's name. You can come look at the Jeep I work normal hours so I am home in the evenings and I will be glad to show it to you. We do not have a buy it now price in mind so we will let the auction run. Thanks for looking and if you are looking for a good little Jeep that isn't all beat up or road hard and put up wet this one would be a great candidate. |

Georgia judge slashes verdict to $40M in Jeep fire case
Wed, Jul 29 2015A judge in Georgia has drastically reduced the damages that Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will have to pay to the family of Remington Walden, who a court said died as a result of the unsafe design of one of its vehicles. While the jury originally awarded the family $150 million at FCA's expense, Judge J. Kevin Chason cut that amount to $40 million, the Detroit News reported. The automaker may still appeal the verdict. The case dates to March 2012, when a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee in which four-year-old Walden was riding was rear-ended by another vehicle. Due to what the jury ruled was an unsafe fuel tank, a fire erupted, and Walden died in the fire. The family's lawyers successfully argued that the automaker knew there was a problem and didn't take sufficient action to address the issue, while FCA countered that its vehicles met the applicable safety standards when they were built. The jury found FCA 99 percent responsible for the fire and Walden's death, reserving the final one percent for the driver who caused the crash. The court awarded the Waldens $150 million in damages to be paid by the automaker: $120 million for wrongful death, and a further $30 million for pain and suffering. FCA, however, argued that the damages were disproportionate to the incident, noting that the $120 million was 11 times higher and the $30 million four times higher than any comparable awards upheld on appeal in the state. Chason agreed and cut the penalties extensively. The Walden family has reportedly accepted the reduced verdict. But according to the News, company spokesman Michael Palese said, "The reduction in the damage awards does not cure the many errors that tainted this verdict and denied FCA US a fair trial. We are considering our legal options." News Source: The Detroit NewsImage Credit: Jeep Government/Legal Recalls Jeep lawsuit court
2018 Jeep Wrangler JL order guide leaks, ordering open at dealers
Tue, Oct 24 2017It's been a big day for Jeep news. Earlier today, a leaked timeline revealed that the new 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL will make its debut sometime in November, likely at either SEMA or the Los Angeles Auto Show. Now, thanks to our friends at JL Wrangler Forums, we have news that an order guide has leaked and order banks are open. That means you should be able to go to a Jeep dealer and place an order for a new Wrangler now. This order guide only covers the four-door Wrangler Unlimited, but it gives us a pretty clear look at the new model. At launch, the Wrangler Unlimited will come in three trims - Sport, Sahara and Rubicon. The only available engine will be FCA's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. Those hoping for a diesel will have to wait a little while longer. All three models will offer both a manual and automatic transmission. While the current model is available in a wide range of colors, initially only five - Billet Silver, Black, Bright White, Firecracker Red and Granite Crystal - will be offered. Poring over the guide shows that features line-up pretty closely with the current model. Hardtops are still optional, as is leather on the Sahara and Rubicon. It doesn't look like you'll be able to get a Sport with a body-color top and the dual-top option for the Rubicon is only listed on the order banks with a black hardtop. The Sahara and Rubicon both have optional trailer hitches and the Rubicon has an optional steel bumper. There's lots we still don't know, but look for more news in the next month or so after the new Wrangler finally debuts. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

EV cost burden pushing automakers to their limits, says Stellantis' CEO Tavares
Wed, Dec 1 2021DETROIT — Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said external pressure on automakers to quickly shift to electric vehicles potentially threatens jobs and vehicle quality as producers struggle with EVs' higher costs. Governments and investors want car manufacturers to speed up the transition to electric vehicles, but the costs are "beyond the limits" of what the auto industry can sustain, Tavares said in an interview at the Reuters Next conference released Wednesday. "What has been decided is to impose on the automotive industry electrification that brings 50% additional costs against a conventional vehicle," he said. "There is no way we can transfer 50% of additional costs to the final consumer because most parts of the middle class will not be able to pay." Automakers could charge higher prices and sell fewer cars, or accept lower profit margins, Tavares said. Those paths both lead to cutbacks. Union leaders in Europe and North America have warned tens of thousands of jobs could be lost. Automakers need time for testing and ensuring that new technology will work, Tavares said. Pushing to speed that process up "is just going to be counter productive. It will lead to quality problems. It will lead to all sorts of problems," he said. Tavares said Stellantis is aiming to avoid cuts by boosting productivity at a pace far faster than industry norm. "Over the next five years we have to digest 10% productivity a year ... in an industry which is used to delivering 2 to 3% productivity" improvement, he said. "The future will tell us who is going to be able to digest this, and who will fail," Tavares said. "We are putting the industry on the limits." Electric vehicle costs are expected to fall, and analysts project that battery electric vehicles and combustion vehicles could reach cost parity during the second half of this decade. Like other automakers that earn profits from combustion vehicles, Stellantis is under pressure from both establishment automakers such as GM, Ford, VW and Hyundai, as well as start-ups such as Tesla and Rivian. The latter electric vehicle companies are far smaller in terms of vehicle sales and employment. But investors have given Tesla and Rivian higher market valuations than the owner of the highly profitable Jeep and Ram brands. That investor pressure is compounded by government policies aimed at cutting greenhouse gas emissions. The European Union, California and other jurisdictions have set goals to end sales of combustion vehicles by 2035.
