Granny's car! This car was owned by an elderly relative of mine, it was parked in her garage seven years ago when she went into a nursing home. She has since passed, and her car is being sold to settle her estate. I have clear title in hand.

A new battery was installed,, and fresh gas put in the tank, and it started right away. It has been driven approx. 50 miles, and there is nothing at all wrong with the way it runs or drives. The engine is smooth and idles nicely.  It has plenty of performance, and does not smoke or knock at all.  A very well kept vehicle for 25 years old!  Have all the owners manuals and papers for the car. Does 70 mph with no problem.  This car still gets looks!  Very comfortable to drive-seats feel real good!  Has convertible top boot. Was garaged most of its life, and the interior and features prove it. Was also dealer maintained, and never abused or driven hard.

The good> no rust Anywhere-and I do mean NO RUST.  We put it on a lift, and the attendant was amazed at just how clean the undercarriage was. Southern car, never seen snow or ice. No noticeable dents. Interior is almost like new. No splits, tears or defects on seats. Carpets are wear-free. Door panels are in great shape, but paint is chipping off on the drivers side handle area inside. Almost new tires, good exhaust, top is in good shape, does not leak and goes up and down flawlessly. Solid car, never wrecked to my knowledge. Can be driven away and to anywhere. Power top fits well, doors open and close solidly. Straight seams on body panels. Great brakes-high pedal, COLD air conditioning! I can honestly say this is a super-clean car with very little wear, no rust, and solid shape.

The bad> rear window behind passenger window sometimes does not work and go down all the way. Paint is solid and not faded, but needs a good buffing.  Side molding trim that was chromed is starting to peel, and will need attention. Radio works, hard to tune. Trip meter sometimes does not work if reset button pushed too hard. Small things, but I try to list as honestly as possible. Nothing seriously wrong with this car.

The last photo in the series shows what it looked like when it was backed out of the garage after being stored for seven years.

You will definitely not regret the purchase of this fine automobile in fantastic shape for its age. It is fun to drive, economical, and you will get lots of compliments and looks!

Sold at NO RESERVE-last bid gets it!

UAW urging Chrysler to sell shares to investors

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

The United Auto Workers union is pushing Chrysler to sell 16.6 percent of its stock to investors in an attempt to establish the value of the shares. The UAW is currently locked in a lawsuit with Chrysler parent company Fiat over how much the Italian automaker should pay to buy shares from the trust fund. Last year, Fiat told the trust it intended to exercise its right to purchase 3.3 percent of the union's shares at issue. But the union contended the 54,154 shares were worth closer to $381 million instead of the $155 million Fiat offered.
Currently, the UAW owns 41.5 percent of Chrysler while Fiat holds 58.5 percent of the company. Currently, it's unclear whether the UAW could force Chrysler to put the shares on the open market. Doing so would be the first step toward a much-anticipated initial public offering. Chrysler has said it will comply with its shareholders agreement, and Fiat has echoed that tune. According to The Detroit Free Press, the UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust has declined to comment on the situation.

FCA recalling 33k vans and SUVs for TPMS problems in two campaigns

Thu, 30 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 33,443 examples in the US of the 2014 Ram ProMaster, 2014 Jeep Wrangler, 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan and 2014 Chrysler Town & Country because of potential problems with the tire pressure monitoring system in the vehicles.
The first campaign is for 23,053 units of the 2014 Ram ProMaster. It's possible for the TPMS to not recognize the location of the data coming from the sensors in the wheels. If this happens, then the low tire pressure warning light comes on and potentially gives the driver a false positive. If the warning isn't cleared, and drivers keep going, they might not be aware of another tire that actually has low pressure. This fix for this is a software update.
The second recall covers 10,390 examples of the 2014 Wrangler, Grand Caravan and Town & Country. According to FCA, it's possible that a test mode for the TPMS is still on since being shipped from the supplier. On affected vehicles, it could cause inaccurate pressure readings. The repair involves disabling that mode on the TPMS module.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
