Courtland, Virginia, United States
For more pictures email at: blanchrosenstock@netzero.net .
For sale is a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT that has about 51k miles on it. It is black on black with all available
options with the exception of the rear entertainment package. The vehicle was originally purchased back in 2014 as
a CPO and with that, I purchased the MOPAR Extended Warranty that covers it for 7 years / 100k miles. This is
transferable to the next buyer and expires towards the end of 2020, I believe. This warranty was purchased for
about $1900 which is nothing compared to a third party warranty cost. The only reason for selling the Jeep is that
my wife and I need a larger vehicle with a growing family of kids and dogs.
For the purposes of clarity, I will list everything out in bullet form:
Year: 2014 Make: Grand Cherokee
Trim: SRT Exterior Color: Black Pearl
Interior: Black Leather with the Suede inserts and Carbon Fiber Trim. The interior is an easy 8.5-9/10, in the
pictures, the scratch referred to later on in the description is just below the cup holder and the bolster on the
drivers side.
OEM Options: Panoramic Roof and Harmon Kardon Stereo, heated front and rear seats, cooled front seats, heated
steering wheel, adaptive cruise control, adaptive headlights (turning and brightness), backup camera. Everything
that was possible to have on an SRT with the exception of a rear entertainment. For my daughter I used a special
sleeve that covered the passenger headrest and attached a tablet to that. Worked awesome while keeping the
interior clean from junk. I will be more specific if a buyer has kids to entertain.
Wheels: Black Chrome Spider Monkey 20" with updated 2015 Jeep SRT center caps
Tires: Yokohama Parada Spec X with about 8k miles, rotated every 3.5k miles
Brakes: Front are Hawk Ceramic pads and OEM replacement rotors with about 10k miles Rear are full oem and have
about 20% life left, only pads are needed
Mats: 3 sets are included: OEM carpet, OEM all weather with trunk liner, Lloyd's Custom Premium Carpet with SRT
logo on all front and rear
Modifications: Injen Cold Air Intake, helps decrease ambient intake temps by around 10 degrees and has the
hydroshield cover to protect from water. Jeep front badge removed, Grand Cherokee side badges removed at 20k miles
for a cleaner look, SRT badge added on drivers side bottom grill to mimic the look of the Challengers. I get tons
of compliments on the clean look of Jeep with the badges removed except for the subtle SRT badges. Catch-can: Black
to match the basic look of the engine bay; if not sure of what a catch can, a quick google search will help. It is
a mod approved by Mopar to help improve engine life. This has been on since about 2k miles after I bought the
vehicle and service at two Jeep dealers has not been an issue. The original airbox is included with purchase and is
easily returned to stock if desired. I can do this if a buyer wishes.
Warranty: Has the factory 5 year / 100k powertrain and will also include the 7 year / 100k Mopar warranty that can
be transferred to the next buyer. It cannot be transferred more than once, just FYI.
Paperwork and Keys: All books and manuals along with the original window sticker and both keys are included. I
also have every piece of paperwork associated with the Jeep in my time of ownership.
History of the Jeep: I have owned this since 08/2014 and have loved it very much. It has been garaged each night
and has only seen snow a handful of times. Each time, I have powerwashed the undercarriage prior to parking her in
the garage. The roads in our area are great and during my ownership has never been in or around city roads. Oil
changes done as recommended every 6k with Mobil 1 full synthetic. The Yoko tires I have found to be the best
alternative to the stupid run flats on the stock. Had Toyo tires for about 8k miles and they were awful. The
exterior of the car has some very mild signs of use from normal driving on the front bumper. There are no
scratches, gouges, large touch ups, etc. I wash this car every week by hand and use a spray wax at the same time.
It is hand waxed once every 6 weeks and clay barred at the end of winter and after the initial part of spring when
all the pollen is mostly done with. The inside is very well maintained with some bolster wear and a superficial
scratches on the center console where the dash is.
Full disclosure: While I have never raced the Jeep against anyone and it has never been to the track, I do enjoy
accelerating in it. The fastest 0-60 time is 3.9 in freezing cold (2 F) weather with an average in the 4.2-4.3
range with normal 70 air temps. As most people who know me, I am usually the guy in the fast vehicle, driving in
the slow lane but getting to the speed limit quickly.

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?
Fri, 27 Sep 2013On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."
FCA profits surge in second quarter
Fri, Jul 31 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles gave the cash register a beating in the second quarter, improving its net profit to 333 million euros ($364M US), which is a 263-percent jump over its reported Q1 profit of 92 million euros ($108M US). At the same time, FCA improved its global profit margin to 7.7 percent. Compared year-over-year, in Q2 2014 FCA reported net profit of 197 million euros making this year's Q2 a 69-percent increase, and profit margins a year ago were 4.9 percent. The two big factors for this increase are strong NAFTA sales and Jeep. In the US alone, Jeep sold 222,940 units in Q2 this year, a jump of almost 20 percent over the same period last year. Revenue in the NAFTA region totaled $18.8 billion, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes were $1.45 billion, both of those numbers more than doubling compared to 2014. The vastly better numbers come on marginally more global sales, 1,181,000 units sold in Q2 2014, 1,193,000 units sold in the same span this year. In the US, FCA began charging dealers one-percent more for vehicles to up the margins, a move that helped boost its US margin from 4.1 percent a year ago to 5.8 percent the first half of this year. The company is holding steady on its guidance of global deliveries at 4.8 million and its net profit guidance at $1.1 to $1.3 billion. It has increased its adjusted outlook for the year to $120.5 billion in revenue, and EBIT to "over $4.93 billion."

Jeep hiring 1,000 part-time workers in Toledo on Wrangler, Cherokee demand
Wed, 12 Mar 2014The new Jeep Cherokee has been quite a success for Chrysler, but its factory workers are getting tired. The automaker has agreed to hire up to 1,000 part-time, temporary employees at its Toledo Assembly Complex where the CUV and Wrangler are built. It will allow the company to keep Jeep production moving, while giving laborers a break.
According to plant manager Chuck Padden in the Toledo Blade, full-time workers are regularly taking on 60 hours a week, and it's beginning to wear on them. "To get them more time off is important to us, to make sure they're refreshed, and can work safely," said Padden.
Chrysler has already hired 380 temporary, part-time workers for the plant, and 50 have been converted to full-time employees. The company is in the process of interviewing the rest of the new hires now and plans to have all 1,000 in place by the summer. They will work between 10 and 30 hours a week mostly on weekends for $15.78 per hour with limited benefits. The temporary positions will last "as long as demand continues for the Jeep Wrangler and the Jeep Cherokee," said Jodi Tinson, Chrysler spokesperson for manufacturing and labor communications, to Autoblog in an email.
