Up for sale is this beautiful 1979 Jeep cj5 !!!! This is a stunning Jeep that turns heads and feels great when driving it. It has a 304 amc engine (not rebuilt) that is nicely detailed in chrome with new Accel wires, New fuel pump, MSD ignition, Headers with true dual exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers!! This jeep sounds aggressive going down the road. The transmission is a synchronized 3 speed (standard). This Jeep runs and drives, but is not a fully restored Jeep. The exterior of this beast is the best looking of all. It has a beautiful green color in real good shape for its age. It looks pretty close to the green color used in the newer Jeeps of today. I get tons of compliments for the color ! This Jeep has a new soft top and doors made by Best Top. It also comes with a bikini top as well. Both the front and rear bumpers are new Smitty Built bumpers. They look great on this Jeep ! It also has a 4 inch lift with 33 inch Pro Comp tires and Mickey Thompson classic rims. This gives the Jeep an over-all mean looking stance. The window frame gaskets and windshield gaskets were also replaced. The hood hinges and vent were chromed and look great as well. Along the sides of the Jeep are diamond plate.All of these details make this jeep stand out from the others. The interior of the jeep is just as great looking as the outside. It has Best Top seats, Aluminum knobs, Chromed handle bar and diamond plate frame. It also has a new Dual Ipod ready stereo. What more could you ask for? The under carriage of this Jeep is in exceptional condition for the year.Most jeeps this year are rusted so bad that you would spend thousands of dollars repairing the floor. This Jeep only has 2 small rust spots that I could find as big as a golf ball. All in all this is a great price for a weekend warrior !!! All it needs is a few details like turn signals, wipers, ect. It is quite drivable and feels very solid. You are more than welcome to have Ebay inspect the vehicle. Any questions or concerns can be answered by calling 915-630-2034. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due upfront. This vehicle is sold in as is condition with no warranty or refund. I am selling this Jeep locally and I can end this listing when it is sold. You cannot build a classic Jeep like this one for what I am asking for mine. These Jeeps are sought after and are hot ! Thank you for looking and good luck !

FCA believes thieves aren't getting into Jeeps with laptops

Mon, Jul 11 2016

Last week, we reported on an incident where thieves stole a 2010 Jeep Wrangler from an owner's driveway in Houston, TX with nothing but a laptop. While the security footage made it seem like the perpetrator hacked into the vehicle, we had a conversation with FCA's senior manager of security architecture Titus Melnyk who set the record straight. According to Melnyk, the thief in the video isn't using the laptop to get into the vehicle, but rather as a means of coding a blank key fob and then using that fob to get into the Jeep. According to Melnyk, the suspects have gained access to a key programming tool, which allows them to pair blank key fobs to FCA vehicles. With the key fob now coded, the suspects can get into the vehicle and drive away. The thieves, believes Melnyk, have acquired the programming tool through a dishonest dealership or locksmith. Since the suspects are using a process designed to be used (honestly) by dealers, FCA doesn't consider this to be hacking and believes that there are no security flaws in the vehicles. How are the thieves getting key fobs? While Melnyk believes it is possible to recode an existing key fob, he points out that it's much easier to purchase a blank key fob on Ebay for less than $25. FCA is working closely with the Houston Police Department to apprehend the suspects. Related Video: Jeep Technology SUV Videos viral video hacking thieves

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recalls nearly 750k vehicles in two campaigns

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is recalling a total of 747,817 vehicles in the US in two separate campaigns recently added to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration database.
The first one covers about 434,581 units of the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Challenger, Durango, and Jeep Grand Cherokee from the 2011-2014 model years with electric hydraulic power steering, the 3.6-liter V6 engine and a 160 amp alternator, according to FCA. In the affected vehicles, it's possible for the alternator to fail without warning and possibly cause the car to stall. According to the documentation submitted to NHTSA, the automaker began investigating the problem in August 2014 and has found possible evidence of one crash caused by the failures but no known injuries.
Customers will begin receiving notification about the recall next month, and obviously the repairs will be done at no cost to them.
