This good looking jeep is golden eagle with the factory chrome package nose,tac, clock, and a working factory 8,000 pound AMC Warn winch. I had it professionally painted Hummer Desert Sunset orange. It has the stock AMC 304 V8 matched to the stock turbo400 automatic trans. It has stock power steering and brakes, hard top and doors. It has a class 4 tow hitch in back and comes with a tow bar for the front. Pretty much everything is new inside and out..tires, seats, 21 gallon stainless steel gas tank, CD player, and more. The only mod to the engine is Doug Thorley headers to duel flow master exhaust. It sounds great. There is one small rust spot on passenger side front panel and a one inch tear in the drivers seat but that's it. I am 51 years old and I have babied this jeep. You won't find a nicer CJ. It looks, runs and sounds great. You'll love this jeep."

I am selling one of the nicest Jeeps in the Southwest.  I am 51 years old and have babied and cherried this Jeep.  It's a 1978 CJ 7 Golden Eagle with the factory chrome front grill, nose and hood supports.  It also has a working factory AMC Warn 8000 pound winch on the front.  It has the original AMC 304 V8 mated to the stock turbo 400 automatic transmission.  The trans was recently professionally rebuilt and runs like a top with no leaks.  The engine is stock with the exception of Doug Thorley headers mated to duel flow masters.  It sounds excellent.  It has matching front and rear 1970s era bullet proof Reese bumpers.  I have a detachable tow bar in the front and a class 4 hitch on the rear.  I added a stainless steel 21 gallon fuel tank.  Power steering and brakes. Tilt steering wheel. New interior, CD player with removable face, tumbling rear seat, rhino lining on top and underside of tub. Even the horn is new.  Removable hard top and doors.  Tires have less than 5000 miles, new mile marker hubs.  This Jeep is a looker and it runs nice.  I am getting ready to retire and down sizing.  You won't find a nicer looking, running and sounding stock Jeep in addition to the factory goodies on board.  This is a gem.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years

Tue, 06 May 2014

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.

Jeep Liberty under investigation for door fires

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

The Jeep Liberty has already had plenty of attention for possible fires thanks to the first-gen model's fuel tank, but now the midsize Jeep is under the microscope of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for another fire-related concern. NHTSA has opened an investigation for the 2012 Liberty after receiving two reports of electrical fires in the driver's door.
According to the investigation summary, around 80,000 vehicles could potentially be affected by this problem. In both reported fires, the drivers noticed smoke and then flames from the master power window switch, and they had to pull to a stop and exit through the passenger side of the SUV. According to Autoguide, there was one injury to a motorist who suffered burned fingers while trying to open the driver's door.
Interestingly, the Dodge Nitro is not yet involved in this investigation, even though it was still around for the 2012 model year; the Nitro ended production in 2011 about a year before the final Liberty rolled off the line for the 2013 model year. Scroll down for the official NHTSA investigation summary.
