Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"The carburetor has an issue and may or may not need to be rebuilt. When the engine is cold, it is difficult to start without a squirt of starting fluid. Once the engine is running, it runs and idles just fine. A manual choke was installed but it does not seem to help very much. The prior owner replaced the speedometer after it stopped working at 38,965 miles. He guessed that the Jeep has about 41,000 miles on it. He said that the owner before him had left the Jeep to sit for many years without being driven. Since then the Jeep was still driven very little. The new speedometer is not very accurate with mph. The fuel gauge and temp. gauges are not working. The oil pressure gauge isn't working but I have the part to fix it. The rest of the electronics, lights and charging system work just fine."

I bought this Jeep all most a year ago as a vehicle just to have fun with and fix up. Due to health issues I'm not able to do all the things that I have wanted to do with it. If I could I would keep it because it is a fun vehicle to drive and it gets a lot of compliments. I have only put a few hundred miles on it since I have owned it because currently it is not registered or insured. With the carburetor problem that I described above, it might or might not pass smog. I haven't had the carburetor fixed yet due to my health problems and lack of money to get it done. I haven't taken this Jeep off road but I have engaged the four wheel drive to test it and it seems to work just fine. Both the engine and transmission seem to be in good mechanical condition. The clutch feels real strong and shifting through the gears is very smooth. The Jeep has power steering that works well too. The prior owner installed a new 12,000 pound winch that has not been used yet and a new CB radio that is a good quality radio with a lot of functions on it. There is a new bikini top and half doors that are shown in the pictures. There is no full soft top but I do have the metal frame for one. There is a nice custom made full roll cage for added safety. There is almost no rust at all on this Jeep which is unusual for its age. The only rust I have found is just a little bit on the inside of the hood. The body, for the most part is straight. It has some very small dents here and there. I painted the entire body in camouflage which has received many compliments. There appears to be about three areas on the body that have had some bondo work done. The CJ 5 is a small type of body and is well known for being one of the best four wheel drive vehicles. I think after the carburetor is fixed this could easily be a reliable daily driver vehicle or a fantastic hunters Jeep.

Jeep launches new ad with unreleased Michael Jackson track

Fri, 09 May 2014

We've recently heard much about how Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne plans to pump up the volume on Jeep sales, inaugurating new models and global dealerships. But that's the stuff outlined in five-year plans; right now, advertising and special editions are at the fore, and the late Michael Jackson, too. Jeep has begun airing two commercials to push its Altitude Editions, Call of Summer and Lovers of the Game, that feature the song "Love Never Felt So Good" from Jackson's upcoming album of new music.
A little more star power - and timely, too - comes from Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving. While Call of Summer features a few short shots of the former Rookie of the Year and two-time NBA All-Star, Lovers of the Game is all about his white Wrangler Altitude Edition and wrangling shots. You can watch both spots below, and if you want to hear the rest of the music track before the album hits, you can download it from iTunes.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:
