Up for sale is my 1989 Jeep Cherokee Limited 4x4 with the 4.0L Straight Six Engine. I bought it because I had one just like this when I was in High School and lasted forever. The body and interior are in excellent condition for it's age.

The paint is all original and in incredible condition without any peeling at all, only a couple of very minor scratches here and there. The front end has no road rash or stone chips. I have a brand new Le Bra front cover that will be included to keep it that way. I took the pictures today and the truck has not been washed and the marks in the front are just bugs. The truck still have the "Jeep" Fog Lamps Covers which are almost impossible to find. There's a dent in the rear bumper as shown in the pictures.

The power leather seats are in incredible condition !! They don't even show normal wear. The original jack, handle and lug wrench and the original full size spare tire with the honeycomb wheel and the original Good Year tire has never been out of the truck. The truck also has the original cargo cover and spare tire cover as well. The headliner was redone. Carpets could use a good shampoo.

The truck has power windows, locks, seats, mirrors, antenna and they all work. The radio is the original Jeep Radio and does not work, but the antenna goes up and down when you turn the radio on/off. Lights, Horn, Wipers, Turn Signals, Dome Lights they all work.

All four tires are brand new and in the correct size and were just installed before my purchase and looks really nice. Tires have less than 2000 miles on them.

There's some thing that needs attention. I'm not a mechanic and don't know anything about it and besides it's been hard for me to find somebody to help me. I work a lot and I just don't have time to fix these issues, although by checking in the Jeep Cherokee Forums looks like easy to fix. The things that needs to be fixed are:

1-The gas gauge works but reads backwards.

2-The cruise control and the A/C does not works and the air only comes out the dash vents. The air compressor turns on, but still no cold air. I was told that there's a vacuum leak somewhere and also that makes the truck stalls sometimes, but haven't been able to find it.

3-The brake light and antilock lights are on. The Jeep had some work done at a Dodge/Jeep dealership in GA (I have all receipts) and it seems that there's a bad sensor that wasn't changed because was in backorder at the time I purchased the truck.

The Jeep does not leak oil or coolant, does not overheat. Leaks only a drop of oil from the transfer case every two or three days.

I tried to describe the Jeep the best I could, but if you have any other questions, please ask, I'll respond honestly and as quickly as possible.

The price is negotiable (my loss is your gain), feel free to email me with any offer but please, don't try to lowball me. Also you are more than welcome to come and see it.

I have a clean Georgia title. The truck is under the previous owner's name that can be reached if necessary, but I have the title and all documents.

For all Jeep fans, you will not find another Limited model with a body as straight and original as this one. Paint looks like new, the weather stripping is soft and supple and the original tinted glass is beautiful. You can tell that has been garaged it's entire life.

Auto Check gives it a high score and the truck only had one elderly owner since new, but was not used for a long time and needs some TLC, but for me, the fact that the exterior / interior are all original and in great shape is a plus.

Thanks for looking

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."

Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.

Jeep recalls 92k Grand Cherokee SUVs over electrical issue

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler is recalling 91,559 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2014 model year due to some serious electrical issues. All of the affected models were built between January 8 and August 20, 2013.
The NHTSA report states that, "Due to a disruption of computer communications and loose alternator ground wires, the affected vehicles may experience random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination and loss of anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) function." The loss of ABS or ESC would greatly reduce a driver's ability to control the vehicle if things get squirrely, and since these failures would not be illuminated on the dashboard display, drivers would not be warned of the issue, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall is expected to kick off sometime this month. Chrysler will notify affected Jeep owners and dealerships "will update the ABS and instrument cluster module software and tighten the alternator ground wire," according to NHTSA.
