Sneads Ferry, North Carolina, United States

I've had this jeep for just over 2 years and have put 17K miles on it. Unfortunately I have used it more for commuting to and from work then on the trail.  I probably got it on some beginner trails in western VA 3 or 4 times total since buying it. It is very capable to say the least. Of course one of the few times I got it on the trail, it was raining and the trees were drooping over the trail and scratched up the fenders. Luckily its all superficial and they can be re-painted. I am selling it because I have a deployment coming up in a few months and I am planning on buying a 4 door jeep or truck when I get back next year...another baby on the way! Below are some details on the modifications on the jeep but Ill say overall it drives great with the much desired reliable inline 6 engine, gets looks and comments everywhere I go, blows ice cold ac, and the 4 wheel drive works great, no issues.

This is a jeep and was used as such, i.e. minor wear and tear on the exterior, interior looks very good. Never abused, kept clean and used only synthetics for the fluids. Rock sliders will need to be sanded down and repainted soon (starting to accumulate rust on the bottom of the sliders). No rust anywhere else on the Jeep!
Drives straight and will do 75mph no problem. Spare tire will be reinstalled for buyer, I run around town with out it. 

I am selling locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early.

Let me know if you have questions.

NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:

NHTSA investigating why Jeep recall fix is taking so long

Mon, 07 Jul 2014

Jeep's saga with the National Traffic Safety Administration and the voluntary campaign to repair 1.56 million vehicles for allegedly unsafe trailer hitches, is getting yet another chapter. The controversy appeared to finally be over in January when the automaker found a supplier for the replacement parts. Nothing is ever that easy, though, and the government regulator is now requesting documents from the company to clarify why the repairs are taking so long to begin.
Jeep parent company Chrysler has until July 16 to submit documents and answers to NHTSA explaining the situation. The regulator claims that despite its compromise to inspect and repair the models with improper hitches in June 2013, Chrysler didn't find a part supplier until December and didn't order the replacements until January. The government agency believes that the first components weren't manufactured until May of this year and vehicles may not actually be repaired until as late as August. According to the report, if the Chrysler doesn't supply what NHTSA is asking for, the agency could "take additional appropriate action as warranted."
Throughout this entire process, Chrysler has asserted that the vehicles met the applicable crash test standards of the time, and it has kept NHTSA abreast of the repair activity. In a recently released statement it said that the regulator analyzed eight rear impact reconstruction tests and found the replacement hitch to be safe. To keep up with the high demand for replacements, Chrysler is working with multiple suppliers, and they are running three shifts, six days a week to get the parts ready as soon as possible.
