2006 Chrysler 300c Wrecked, Clean Title, Easy Fix, Still Runs, No Reserve!!!!!!! on 2040-cars
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States
So up for sale is a Chrysler 300C HEMI we had for sale on our lot. It was taken for a test drive, and the possible customer wrecked the car. His insurance is NOT covering and my dealer insurance is liability only, therefore I am about to take the biggest loss in my time doing this. The car still starts and runs. It will not drive due to suspension damage. I took many pictures to try to show the damage as best as possible. This vehicle has roughly 38,000 miles, which is super low, and was super nice up until the guy wrecked the car. I have taken it all apart to assess the damage and consider fixing it, but I honestly want no more to do with this bad deal. The AC system and COOLING system are untouched, so the car still blows cold ac and does NOT overheat. The power steering reservoir did get broken in the accident so that will need to be replaced. As for the suspension damage, you will need both sides new inner and outer tie rods as it seems to have ripped them clean out of the rack. I suggest just buying a fully rebuild rack on ebay because the going price of them seems to be under $200.00 complete ready to bolt in. It also broke the thrust arms which can be seen in the pictures. As far as my eye can see that would be all you need. You may also have to deal with a bent shock on the driver side, but I did not take it off to inspect. As for as body goes, you will definitely need a hood, both fenders, front bumper cover, left headlight, and radiator support. No damage was done to the frame rail, and no damage to shock tower or anything. It appears to be pretty light in my book. You will also need drivers side airbag, airbag sensor, and the airbag computer reset which can be done here on ebay for about $50.00
Without me finding my own parts or doing any of the work myself I was quoted $4500 to fix. I am sure someone savvy in body work can do it for $3000-$3,500 My terrible loss is your gain. I am just looking for a quick sale, and to get this car out of my life. The wheels are undamaged, however one tire was destroyed in the accident. The remaining three tires were just installed 4 months before the incident. The car has a Jegs exhaust system, cold air intake, and a bully dog programmer. The car was pretty quick, fun to drive, and reliable. Someone is going to get a great deal here as I will be selling this car with NO RESERVE! So good luck and happy bidding. Vehicle is sold as is, where is, and I can help organize shipping although it would be best if it was picked up. Im open either way. Also three of the four door handles seem to have a broken clip or something on the exterior side of things. It doesnt keep you from being able to open the doors, but does need to be fixed. Just wanted to disclose everything I know about the car. NOTE: this is NOT a SRT8, however it does have the SRT8 interior, and badges. So just wanted to clear that up. I do also have a full set of Dodge Magnum SRT8 wheels for an additional 500 bucks if you would be interested in completing the look and installing a srt8 front bumper (i do not have the front bumper). |

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable
Sun, 10 Aug 2014A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
Jeep Begins Fixing 1.56 Million Recalled Grand Cherokee, Liberty SUVs
Tue, Jan 14 2014Chrysler is just now beginning the big job of fixing 1.56 million older Jeep SUVs seven months after a recall was announced, according to The Detroit News. Jeep Grand Cherokees sold between 1992 and 1998 and Jeep Liberty models sold between 2002 and 2007 are being recalled because the gas tank can leak in the event of a rear-end collision, leading to a fire. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration originally requested the recall of 2.7 million vehicles. Chrysler initially disputed NHTSA's findings and seemed willing to go through a court battle until an 11th-hour deal reduced the number of vehicles involved in the recall. The remaining vehicle owners left out of the recall will receive a "customer service action" notification and may not get fixed. Chrysler says the vehicles are safe and need no repairs. Fixing the 1.56 million Jeeps will cost Chrysler $151 million. NHTSA cited 51 deaths causes by such tank fires. Chrysler plans to install protective trailer hitches to protect the gas tanks, but even the automaker admits the hitches will only provide incremental protection in a low-to-moderate speed rear-end crash.

Auto investor Kirk Kerkorian dead at 98
Wed, Jun 17 2015Kirk Kerkorian, among the most talked-about investors in the American auto industry in recent memory, died at the age of 98 in Los Angeles on Monday, June 15. The billionaire ran the investment company Tracinda Corp. and was the largest shareholder in MGM Resorts International. Kerkorian attempted to use his power as a well-financed investor to push the auto industry in some fascinating ways. In 2006, he used his nearly 10-percent stake in General Motors to push a merger with the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The deal made it as far as discussions, but eventually fell through. Kerkorian also attempted to purchase Chrysler - twice. According to Automotive News, the first effort came in 1995 with a $22.8-billion offer for the automaker, and soon after it failed the company merged with Daimler. Then in 2007, Kerkorian was back with a bid for $4.5 billion, but things eventually fell to Cerberus. The billionaire finished the trifecta by buying up $1 billion in Ford stock in 2008 to make Kerkorian the single largest investor in the company. However, the situation didn't last long, and by the end of that year, he had unloaded the shares. According to Automotive News, Kerkorian was ranked by Forbes as the world's 41st richest man in 2008 with a net worth of $16 billion.
