Up for Auction, this clean, well maintained 2001 Chrysler Concorde lxi. I purchased the car used in 2005. This car was often driven by a single driver, therefore the interior is in great condition. This car is equipped with all of the available options offered in 2001. The driver side seat is starting to show some normal wear (see photo), but no rips, tears, etc. The exterior of the car is showing average/normal wear, i.e. few rock chips on hood (see photo), and typical grocery cart dings here and there, but nothing that needs visual repair. Paint is original, so it shows signs of minor oxidation. Tires have about 50% tread life remaining. Front ceramic brakes and rotors are within 6 months old. Mechanically the car is sound now!
**Honest disclaimer, please read!**
At 158,000 miles, the timing belt broke which is a bad deal on these 3.2L motors. Instead of trying to repair all of the parts and pieces, I purchased another used ( but running) complete power train (engine and transmission) to install. Before installing the newer power train, I replaced the timing belt and water pump, belts & hoses to extend the life of the newer power train that only has 100,000 miles on it.***
This car runs great and has a comfortable drive. It is still a daily commuter car with plenty of life left! Good luck bidding on this very clean, dependable Inferno Red Concorde lxi! Thanks for looking!

Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA

Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

2015 Chrysler 200S AWD

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

I love road trips. Honestly, one of the best parts about this job is the freedom we're given to experience the open road, whether at new car launches or while bombing around with whatever we're testing on our home turf. But the longer-form road trip is equally special to me, and it's something I'm always eager to do. Air travel stinks - that's not news. So if I can drive, I will. And without our dear TSA to fight with, I can pack all the chainsaws and gallon jugs of chocolate milk that I want.
So when it came time to attend the 2014 New York Auto Show this past April, I thought, "Why not drive?" Typically, the route from downtown Detroit to Manhattan is something like 10 hours, but I decided to bake some extra time into the journey and planned for the vast majority of my travels to be off the beaten path. Doing the "avoid expressways" route allows you to see parts of America you've never encountered before, and to meet people with stories and opinions that you've never heard. It's a great way to travel if you have the time. There's something uniquely serene about seeing the country in a great car on a great road.
Let's talk about that "great car" line for a moment. Ideally, long stretches of backroads are best done in something fast, comfortable and involving - a Porsche 911 comes to mind. Or, another school of thought says to pick some fun little spitfire like the always-lovely Mazda MX-5 Miata, for top-down, sun-drenched fun. But for this trip, I chose the 2015 Chrysler 200, in fully loaded S guise with all-wheel drive. Now, settle down; I'm not about to compare it to either the Porsche or Mazda. The point I'm making is this: after 1,500 test miles under my butt, I can emphatically state that the new 200 is indeed a great car in its own right.
