I am offering my 2001 Jeep Cherokee for sale. I am the second owner of this Jeep. It has a 4.5 in. Rubicon Express lift. I put the kit on it to lower the front arms and make it ride better (I hope I explained that correctly) and it rides very nice for a lifted vehicle. It was just inspected in December passed without a problem. Inspection is good until December 2014 in PA. It has the 4.0L 6 cylinder, automatic, and 42,141 original miles. Looks like new. There are no dings or dents. I only drive it on nice days. It has seen snow only a handful of times and I rarely drove it in the rain (only when I have to). The original owner used Mobil 1 fully synthetic motor oil and that is all I have used in the Jeep. There is no rust on the Jeep at all. There is a small area of clear coat that peeled right above the middle tailgate light on the roof (you can't see it unless your looking at the Jeep from above. It was like this when I purchased the Jeep, it hasn't gotten any worse (I can get a picture if anyone would like to see this). It has Wrangler Rubicon rims on it, which I had painted. The Jeep does not have an SYE. I bought it with 27K on it and I drove it 15K without any problems. It also has a cowl induction hood and a JetChip in it. With the JetChip you are suppose to run mid grade octane, which I always have. This can easily be removed. I had Rubicon Express Monotube Shock put on it 1-2 years ago. The front tires are basically brand new. The rear tires are fair. The spare tire is also a Wrangler Rubicon Rim, which I believe is also painted (I don't have the Jeep at my place right now so I can't check), with the same size tire as all of the others on the Jeep. I forgot to take pictures of the hatch area inside the Jeep. It is clean, just like the pictures of the interior that are posted. I can send pictures of this if desired, just let me know. I was told when I purchased the Jeep it had an aftermarket exhaust manifold on it, I never checked it out. I just assumed it was true. I had the battery disconnect and I just re-connected it. The check engine light was on it, but it is not now. I had it checked out and the TPS sensor is bad. It does not affect the drivability of the Jeep. If the light comes on again I will replace it before I sell the Jeep. The Jeep has only been off-road once and it was a dirt road with a couple very small rocks. I also take it hunting about twice a year. This Jeep hasn't been wheeled (in my opinion) and I don't know if it would need anything to perform flawlessly off-road. I am willing to ship the Jeep anywhere in the United States, but I will not release the Jeep to anyone until the correct funds have been transferred into my account. I'm not worried about a deposit or anything like that. If it will take a few days or a week for someone to put the cash together, I'm ok with that. I will not use PayPal. Please bid to own, even though there is a reserve on the Jeep. I will probably sell it, even if the reserve isn't met. I put the reserve on the Jeep in case it doesn't bring anywhere close to where I think it should be. I have tried to describe this Jeep to the best of my ability.I will take a check or cash for the Jeep. I'm not trying to hide anything so if there are any questions please ask. Thanks.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee probed by NHTSA for brake problems

Sun, Jun 7 2015

Remember how Toyota got in all kinds of trouble over unintended acceleration? Well, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating Jeep over unintended braking. NHTSA has announced a probe of 20,000 Grand Cherokee SUVs from model year 2014. Nine complaints have been received, with owners alleging that their Jeeps have issued brake warnings or gone ahead and applied the brakes when no threat was presented. Each complaint alleges that the vehicles have exhibited this behavior repeatedly, leading to a "sudden reduction in vehicle speed in traffic." So basically, a system designed to prevent accidents could actually increase the odds of a collision happening. Speaking to the Associated Press, Jeep spokesperson Eric Mayne said owners whose vehicles are exhibiting this behavior should report to dealers, while adding that the automatic braking/adaptive cruise control systems can be deactivated. Related Video: Scroll down for the official bulletin on the investigation from NHTSA. Date Investigation Opened: JUN 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15021 Component(s): FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received nine complaints alleging inappropriate activations of the autonomous braking system in model year (MY) 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles. All nine reports alleged unexpected braking incidents preceded by collision imminent brake warnings and resulting in sudden reduction in vehicle speed in traffic. Two complaints reported autonomous braking incidents with no objects on the road resulting in rapid increase in brake force and anti-lock braking system (ABS) activations. The complaints alleged experiencing multiple events at different locations and road conditions. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to assess the frequency, scope and consequences of the alleged defect. The following VOQ numbers are associated with the issues discussed in this resume: 10543837, 10713629, 10690650, 10663320, 10630362, 10596913, 10533622, 10533524, 10651269.

Jeep dealer buries WWII Willys GP in showroom floor

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

The Willys MB Jeep earned icon status during World War II thanks to its ruggedness, simplicity and go-anywhere ability. Following the war, it didn't take long for the handy vehicles to be scooped up by the public, and a brand slowly grew around the vehicles that has continued to thrive. Fast-forward to present day, where it's not uncommon for auto dealers to try to grab some of the magic of yesteryear by displaying classic models to connect customers with their brands' proud histories. Now, a Canadian Chrysler Group dealer is taking that notion to the extreme by actually making a vintage WWII Jeep part of its foundation.
Bay King Chrysler in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, recently completed its new showroom, and the franchise really wanted to show its dedication to the Jeep brand. As dealer principal Jamie Richter tells Autoblog, the inspiration for the Jeep installation came from his brother, who became fascinated with a home that had a glass floor looking down into its wine cellar. The company already had the 1943 Willys MB to display, but it had originally planned to build a jungle gym around it for customers' kids. Now, the classic is literally in the floor as customers enter. Richter tells Autoblog that customer reaction so far has been "fantastic."
It's certainly a novel way to bring people into the showroom, and seemingly a nice nod not only to Jeep, but to the men and women who served in the war. If you want to see more about how the Jeep was actually installed and what it looks like, check out this video.

Mixed sales results, but automaker stocks rise on need for cars in Houston

Fri, Sep 1 2017

DETROIT — The Big Three Detroit automakers on Friday reported better-than-expected August sales and issued optimistic outlooks for demand as residents of the Houston area replace flood-damaged cars and trucks after Hurricane Harvey, sending their stocks higher. General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler posted mixed August U.S. sales, with GM up 7.5 percent and Ford and Fiat Chrysler down. Japanese automaker Toyota improved sales by nearly 7 percent, while Honda fell 2.4 percent. Still, analysts focused on the potential for Detroit automakers to cut inventories and stabilize used vehicle prices as residents of Houston, the fourth largest city in the United States, are forced to replace tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of vehicles after the devastation from Hurricane Harvey. Mark LaNeve, Ford's U.S. sales chief, told analysts on Friday that following Hurricane Katrina in 2005 "we saw a very dramatic snapback" in demand. That said, Ford sales fell 2.1 percent in August. It sold 209,897 vehicles in the United States, compared with 214,482 a year earlier. Sales were down 1.9 percent in the Ford division and off 5.8 percent at Lincoln. Demand was down for cars, crossovers and SUVs. It was not clear how many vehicles in the Houston area will be scrapped, LaNeve said, saying he had seen estimates ranging from 200,000 to 400,000 to 1 million. Ford's Houston dealers may have lost fewer than 5,000 vehicles in inventory, he said. Ford is the No. 1 automaker in the Houston market, with 18 percent share, according to IHS Markit. The company plans to ship used vehicles to Houston dealers and has "every indication we would have to add some production" of new vehicles to meet demand, LaNeve said. Investor concerns about inventories of unsold vehicles and falling used car prices have weighed on Detroit automakers' shares most of this year. Now, automakers can anticipate a jolt of demand from a big market that is a stronghold for Detroit brand trucks and SUVs. "It's got to be a positive for the industry," LaNeve said. Investors appeared to agree. GM shares rose as much as 3.3 percent to their highest since early March. Ford increased 2.8 percent at $11.34, and Fiat Chrysler's U.S.-traded shares were up 5.2 percent $15.91, hitting their highest in more than five years. GM reported a 7.5 percent increase in U.S. auto sales in August, helped by robust sales of crossovers across its four brands.
