I purchased this vehicle 5 months ago... this was before finding out the family is expanding and we need a larger SUV that being said we do not want to put any additional money into repairs and are choosing to list approx. $1500-$2000 under blue book value to compensate for that, allowing the next owner to take care of any repair work while still keeping value in the vehicle.

As I said it was purchased approximately 5 months ago and I can only speak to the past 5 months since I have owned it. I will be as transparent as possible so you do not get into a vehicle that you do not expect to have to do a little work with. When I purchased it I was told that it had an air hose leak which is why it would hesitate during shifting and an oil leak which caused the check engine light to sporadically come on. Both of these issues existed however the result from them was untrue. Both oil leak and air hose have been fixed. Check engine light once in my possession was not a sporadic thing but a constant and needed to repaired quick in order to pass inspection. It happened to be an intake manifold leak and is now corrected. It also needed new tires to pass inspection and those were purchased and have only been driven approx. 4000 miles on since.

I did not obtain a carfax prior to purchasing and am unsure what the 2 accidents that the one provided states were. As far as cosmetic this vehicle is in excellent condition. There are no major dents, scratches or rust spots. Exterior is in great condition. Interior just needs to be cleaned.

The specs: v6, power windows, power locks, keyless entry, odometer states 67,000 miles, anti lock breaks, air bags, 6 cd changer with cassette and am/fm radio. Cruise control, air conditioning, seats in back fold down, storage compartment in rear, clean title, no liens/loans. Its your basic small SUV and has pretty good gas mileage.

Like I said I will be as transparent as possible and since I have taken it off the road and did not have a diagnostic done I will do my best to explain exactly what the vehicle does so you can get a good idea of what may need repaired. If you are a mechanic, or know/have a good mechanic I am sure whatever the issue is should be fixable without a problem. First, AC does not blow cold, possible recharge? Second wiper blade in rear does not work, was told needed a new motor approx. $150 including labor. Third turning signal will work 90% of the time but will randomly stop, was told $250 to fix including labor. Last the vehicle will start and run with no problem but sometimes (this is really not an every time occurrence) when placed from park to first it will hesitate. When you push on the gas the vehicle will not move. When it does this it revs the engine then kicks forward finally allowing you to drive freely. When it does this it will then hesitate at stop lights when accelerating etc. When it does not do it from the start it drives just fine. This was a recent development and the main reason I decided to take it off the road and start looking for a larger SUV. As I am not a "car person" I can not really speculate as to what the fix will be.

You are purchasing this vehicle "as-is" and are responsible for pick up. Payment must be made in full within 7 days and deposit required within 48 hours. Any questions please ask prior to bidding.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]

Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...

GM's got 107 problems and NHTSA's No. 1

Thu, Mar 6 2014

General Motors' problems with its recall of roughly 1.6-million vehicles continue to mount. Now that it has emerged that GM knew about the problem since at least 2004 but waited to recall vehicles until February 2014, regulators at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have begun a much deeper investigation. NHTSA has sent a 27-page survey to GM that includes 107 questions about the timeline of what led up to the recall, and it has until April 3 to reply. This isn't a simple, multiple-choice test. Automotive News believes that hundreds of pages could be required to answer some of the queries. NHTSA says that it is still investigating GM's response to the recall. "We are a data-driven organization, and we will take whatever action is appropriate based on where our findings lead us," said NHTSA in a statement on its website. If found liable, the automaker could face a fine as high as $35 million and even possible criminal charges, according to Bloomberg. NHTSA's questions include a detailed explanation of GM's examination process; how it will improve the process; why a planned redesign of the cars' key in 2005 wasn't implemented; and specific data on each complaint it received. According to Bloomberg, NHTSA also has records that show the company had a meeting with regulators to discuss the airbag failure in a Chevrolet Cobalt in 2007. New GM CEO Mary Barra has also hired an outside law firm to conduct an independent investigation about what happened. It will include questioning company employees who were involved with the process from the start. The recall stems from faulty ignition switches that shut off the car while driving, and if it occurs the airbags deactivate. Thirteen deaths and 23 crashes have been caused by the problem, according to Bloomberg. If you would like to peruse NHTSA's entire questionnaire for GM, it can be viewed here.
