2009 Chevrolet Custom Explorer Van With 6 Captains Chairs With Heat And Massage on 2040-cars

Year:2009 Mileage:63269
Location:

I custom ordered this van (and picked it up) at the Explorer factory in Warsaw, Indiana.  It is the All Wheel Drive model that is great in snow and even gives you more confidence in rain.  One of the biggest things that I had Explorer change was to put all captains chairs with heat and massage.  The rear bench seat that 99% of vans have is not comfortable, rattles and is rarely folded flat.  The van has always been kept in a heated garage and had routine oil changes.  The paint is in great shape with not even a rock chip and leather is still supple.  Below is the list of notable options and features.  

-17" chrome wheels with street/all season tires
-17" machine finish wheels with snow tires
-Extra door and floor insulation for sound deadening than standard
-"Medallion Series" wrap around ground effects
-Leather Seating
-6 captains chairs with heat, power lumbar, power recline and massage
-Front 2 seats also have 6 way power adjustment
-Low roof that allows it to be parked in a standard garage and go into parking decks
-15" LCD Flip down TV with built in DVD player
-Sound for TV can come from speakers or wireless headphones
-Cooler to keep snacks and drinks on hand on a trip
-Factory XM Satellite Radio
-Backup sensors
-Hitch step
-Side air vents
-Stainless steel mesh grill
-Power sunroof with screen
-Front spoiler and driving lights
-Monochromatic door handles and mirrors
-2-way dome tweeters in door pods
-High intensity ceiling light panels
-Padded front door armrests
-Premium carpet
-Digital compass mirror
-Cloth shades on all rear windows
-Portable air compressor
-Universal game hook up
-Indirect lighting package
-Stabilitrak
-Chrome Exhaust
-Rear "helper springs" that keep van level when heavily loaded or pulling trailer
-Deep tinted glass
-Remote keyless entry

There are a lot more options/features on this van than I listed, but those are the biggest things.  If you have a question about anything on the van, please let me know.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
