2005 Chrysler Pt Cruiser Convertible Low Miles, Clean, "needs Turbo", Cheap!!!!! on 2040-cars

Year:2005 Mileage:78162
Location:

Copperhill, Tennessee, United States

Copperhill, Tennessee, United States

I am listing this vehicle for a friend of mine and this is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so please read the whole description of this vehicle and ask any questions that you might have before you bid, because the winner bidder will be the owner of this convertible. The PT Cruiser runs and drives but the Turbo unit is shot. When you start to accelerate to the point that the turbo starts to kick in it will start smoking out the exhaust. The 2.4L engine runs smooth with no funny noises, no overheating, or rattles but it will have to have turbo work done. The automatic transmissions shifts fine and the air conditioning works too. The Cruiser will have to have a battery and a set of new tires also because the battery is bad and the tires are worn slick. The body has a few dings here and there and the paint has some minor scratches here and there too. The passenger side door doesn't open from the outside door handle {but does from the inside handle} and I suspect that the latch rod has came loose from the door handle itself. So as you can tell by now the vehicle is going to have to have some repair work done to it. Now on to the good points of the car. The PT has really low miles at 78,162. The Cruiser's convertible top is in very good condition and works like a champ. The interior looks good and isn't torn up and should look like new with a professional cleaning job done to it. The paint is still decent and with a little work should polish up good for an everyday driver. The Cruiser is loaded in power accessories and everything is still in good working order. With the repairs done this vehicle should be a good little money maker or a very good looking summertime convertible that didn't break the bank to buy. Please look at all the pictures and ask all questions and i'll get back to you. All items are sold as is, where is. Buyer is responsible for ALL shipping arrangements. Cash payment in hand, in person is expected within 7 days of auction close. Cash payment and pickup of vehicle is expected within 7 days of auction close. Please look at my feedback and bid with confidence, good luck and happy bidding, thanks.

How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable

Sun, 10 Aug 2014

A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.

Some Jeep Cherokees and Chrysler 200s to get standard stop-start in 2015

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Automakers the world over are striving to find ways to make their models more efficient, and Chrysler has a solution for some versions of the 2015 Chrysler 200 and 2015 Jeep Cherokee (2014 model shown). The Tigershark 2.4-liter four-cylinder in the 200 and the 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 in the Cherokee are getting a slight boost later this year thanks to the addition of Chrysler's Engine Stop-Start system as standard equipment. The company predicts modest gains - a three-percent improvement in fuel economy and a three percent reduction in CO2 emissions with the new tech compared to without it. While it's not much, those who sit in traffic a lot may see a difference.
Chrysler's stop/start system uses a high-speed starter motor to restart the vehicle in a claimed a third of a second. It works by detecting when the vehicle comes to a stop and turning off the engine. A more powerful battery maintains all of the model's accessories while it sits. When the driver lets off the brake, the car starts up again to drive away. There is even a button in the cabin to turn the ESS off, if desired.
The Jeep will be the first to receive ESS in the third quarter of this year to coincide with the start of production of the 2015 model-year version. The 200 will follow in the fourth quarter as a rolling change in production.
