1986 Jeep Grand Wagoneer! Awesome Shape! on 2040-cars
Bowling Green, Kentucky, United States
I am third owner of this Wagoneer. The first owner had it for about a year and sold it to a gentleman in California who owned it for many years. I bought it from him when he became too ill to to drive it. Since owning it, I had it professionally enhanced with removal of the California restrictive equipment, and general engine rebuild with Quick-fuel tech 4bl carb and Edelbrock top end and air cleaner, Headman ceramic lined headers, new exhaust, aluminum radiator,, electric fan, aluminum washer reservoirs, A/C conversion, and ceramic brakes. I had the front and rear bumpers removed and chromed along with the front grill. The radio has been changed out to an Alpine system with i-pod connectivity and Blue-tooth for telephone. I have installed a remote keyless entry. Power windows and doors all work, the header is new. Basically this is an awesome ride! Again, all work has been professionally done here in Bowling Green (Corvette City) where mechanics take their work seriously. The original speedometer went out around 83k and replaced. I have it with me. The only problem that I have with her is that when we installed the remote keyless entry, evidently we created a parasitic drain on the battery. This is not a problem if you drive it often, but if you don't, I installed a toggle switch under the dash to cut off the circuit. Take a look at "Buttercup" she's a good ride and a lot of fun. I am building a new home and I simply do not have the space to keep her in new location. Otherwise, she has been kept in a climate controlled garage and has no rust.

Jeep hackers return to take over your steering wheel
Wed, Aug 3 2016Last year, security researchers Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek made headlines by remotely hacking a Jeep, killing the transmission and applying the brakes while Wired reporter Andy Greenberg was behind the wheel and driving in traffic. The hack led to a 1.4 million-vehicle recall for Fiat Chrysler and new jobs at Uber's Advanced Technology Center for Miller and Valasek. Despite the cushy new gigs, the two of them apparently aren't done hacking Jeep Cherokees for sport. In their latest exploit, the pair can gain even more control over a vehicle, but it would also be extremely difficult to pull off in a real-world setting. Here's the harrowing part first: Miller and Valasek can do more than just apply the brakes at low speed or cut the transmission this time around. Now they can turn on the parking brake, mess with the cruise control and hijack the auto-parking system to jerk the steering wheel a dangerous 180 degrees while the car is in motion. It looks about as frightening as it sounds: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Although it's not hard to see how that would make for a very terrifying drive, there's a big grain of salt that comes along with it: Miller and Valasek actually used the same model 2014 Jeep Cherokee as the original demonstration, but without the software patch applied. Or, as Wired put it, "imagine an alternate reality," where a fix had never been made. Unlike before, the latest hack requires a physical connection plugging their laptop into the Jeep's OBD-II diagnostic port under the dash. The team also had to update the Jeep with their own firmware to disable some of the car's built-in safety checks before they could get much control. In other words: In order to get hacked, Jeep owners would first need to roll back their car's firmware to an older version, invite someone to remove security features and then also let them ride shotgun with a computer. Or, as Engadget's resident security expert Violet Blue wrote on Twitter, it's sort of a non-threat. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

That said, The Verge points out that it may still be possible to exploit OBD-connected wireless dongles like the Metromile Tag, Automatic Link or other similar devices currently marketed by insurance companies.

Chrysler Recalls 350K Vehicles To Fix Ignition Switches
Thu, Sep 25 2014Chrysler is recalling nearly 350,000 cars and SUVs to fix ignition switches that could unexpectedly shut off the engines. The recall covers 2008 Jeep Commander and Grand Cherokee SUVs, Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger sedans, and Dodge Magnum wagons. All were built before May 12, 2008. Chrysler says the ignitions may not fully return to the "on" position after being started. The switches could move to "accessory" or "off." That could shut off the engine and knock out power-assisted steering and other features. Chrysler knows of one crash and no injuries from the problem. It's telling people to use the key alone in the ignition and confirm that switches have returned to "on" after starting their cars. Chrysler is investigating the cause. Customers will be notified when repairs are ready. Related Gallery The Trucks And SUVs Consumers Are Liking Most View 11 Photos
