I bought this wag in 2009 for my oldest boy to learn how to drive in. I went through it mechanically replacing battery, carburetor, alternator, thermostat, radiator, hoses, belts, fan clutch, tires, distributor (HEI) and headliner. I like to play with old jeeps so it made sense to make one mechanically sound and let him learn in a heavy, safe car that could take a hit. My deal was you drive the old wag for at least a year and if you have no tickets or accidents we can talk about getting something else. My son liked the wag so much that he drove it for three years and when he decided he did want to trade up he took my Cherokee Chief (the boy has good taste). In the four years that we have owned it we have put 4,000 miles on it and it has been very dependable.

What does not work - the a/c, cruise control, intermittent wiper. The back window does not work from the dash switch and barely works from the key switch (you have to help it along with your hand). The rest of the windows work, front ones well and the rear ones slow. The paint is in bad shape, stained and blochy, the pictures make the paint look better than it is. The pictures do a good job of showing the rust and the condition of the interior.

The jeep has been sitting more often than not since my son has been driving the Chief. I have six other cars to play with so I am letting this one go. I drove it today and noticed the rear brakes making a little bit of a scraping sound when the brakes are applied so it will probably need rear brake shoes. Other than that it is mechanically sound and runs very well. 4WD works and it is the best car for snow I have ever had.

If you have any questions please ask. If you have zero feedback please contact me before you bid. I would like a $500 deposit via paypal within 24 hours of the auction close. Balance is due when the jeep is picked up. You have two week to pick it up unless we agree ahead of time on something else. I will accept cash or paypal only. If paying the entire balance via paypal please add 2% to help cover the paypal fee. If when you come to get the jeep you feel that it has been misrepresented I will refund you $400 of your deposit back. The jeep is being sold as is where is and shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I will be happy to work with your shipper if you choose not to come and get it yourself.

Jeep Wrangler likely to get aluminum body, will stay in Toledo

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

Perhaps more than any other vehicle currently for sale in the United States, the Jeep Wrangler is viewed by purist fans as a vehicle that simply must maintain the status quo. In this case, that means a body-on-frame design, solid axles, a relatively large engine sitting up front and a removable top. It's always been that way, and it always will be.
Maybe.
According to the most recent reports, the next-generation Jeep will continue to soldier forth with a full steel chassis underneath its stamped bodywork. The biggest change, reports Automotive News, will be that said panels will be hewn from aluminum instead of steel, a seismic shift of a transition not unlike what's happened with the new Ford F-150. Because it won't be a unibody, the SUV will likely continue to be assembled in Toledo, OH as it (almost) always has been - the latter has been a source of heartburn in recent weeks for the Northwestern city in the Buckeye State.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango still catching fire after recall

Thu, May 7 2015

Automakers issue recalls all the time. It's part of the cost of doing business. We just assume that once the recall has been carried out, the problem in question has been fixed. But that's not always the case, as this latest investigation being undertaken by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration goes to show. The problem stems back to a recall issued by Chrysler last summer. It revolved rather the sun visor in the SUVs it makes at its Jefferson North Assembly Plant – specifically, the screw affixing the sun visor could end up rubbing against the wiring for the lamp in the vanity mirror, potentially causing an electrical short and even a fire. 62 such short circuits, 38 fires and three injuries reported, prompting Chrysler to recall nearly 900,000 units of the 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango (over 650,000 of them in the United States). The plastic spacers they installed to rectify the problem, however, may not have done the trick. Eight reports (but none involving injuries) have been filed with the NHTSA regarding the same issue recurring, spurring the government agency to open a new investigation into the matter. If deemed necessary, the NHTSA could ask FCA to issue another recall to fix the issue again, which we may necessitate the installation of a fuze to prevent any such the electric short.

The recall was in response to the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) investigation EA14-001 during which data provided by Chrysler indicates that the fire is caused by an electrical short in the vanity lamp wiring for either one of the sun visors mounted on the vehicle. The sun visors are mounted to the roof of the vehicle through the headliner with three metal screws.

Supplier says Jeep Cherokee hack only affects FCA cars

Wed, Aug 5 2015

Harman doesn't think that drivers need to worry about any further hacks of its products. The company supplies FCA's Uconnect infotainment system where a software vulnerability is responsible for a 1.4-million vehicle recall. "This experimental hack is unique to Chrysler," Harman CEO Dinesh Paliwal said to Automotive News. "This does not exist, to our assessment, in any other vehicle." The reason that the company wouldn't be involved is that automakers aren't simply plugging in the existing infotainment systems into new vehicles. According to Paliwal, Harman supplies the unit, but FCA and other automakers are able to make additional modifications for their vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has also recently taken up the question of broader software vulnerabilities in Harman's products. On July 29, the agency began investigating the company to check for similarities between Uconnect and the infotainment systems supplied to other automakers. The Jeep hack became national news when two researchers were remotely able to take control of a Cherokee. The vulnerability in the cellular connection even gave control over the brakes. "Once people get in the car and get into the CAN bus, then you can start to mimic and mess up many, many things in the car," Paliwal said to Automotive News. Politicians immediately responded with legislation to create federal standards in hopes of protecting drivers better. NHTSA also opened an investigation to make sure the automaker's software update actually solved the problem. Related Video:
