We are not original owners, so we can only tell you what we know what has happened to the vehicle since we owned it. IT WILL NEED TO BE TOWED. Was running fine until coming back from Tennessee mountains and it started running rough. We stopped it, and towed it the rest of the way. It has been parked since. IT HAS THROWN A ROD OUT THE OIL PAN, BUT NOT OUT THE ENGINE. IT NEEDS A BATTERY AND IT WILL RUN; HOWEVER THE THE OIL PAN AND ROD NEED TO BE REPLACED BEFORE DRIVING IT AGAIN, THEREFORE, YOU WOULD NEED TO TOW THIS HOME OR HAUL IT BACK ON YOUR TRAILER. You may want to replace rod bearings also; just a suggestion. The rear hatch door has become jammed, it was working up until a few months ago. There is a little under body rust, and a small area of rust on the ladder that climbs on to the roof. The air conditioning may need a switch as it is intermittent, and the cruise switch needs replacing. One small section of the headliner needs to be fixed (as seen in one of the pictures). This SUV was a Very Comfortable ride and drove with considerable power up until the thrown rod out the oil pan. It has a CD player under the passenger front seat, 2 moon roofs, a bush guard, tow package, running boards, V8, good tire tread, heated front seats, cassette/radio, and all wheel drive. We have 5 other vehicles to keep up and work on, so we are just going to have to let this one go. Kelley Blue Book in Fair Condition for this vehicle is valued around $2,855. Excellent Condition is valued at $3,830 for this year model. This is a nice vehicle for someone to get in good running condition again. We also have another account- an ebay store with over 500 feedback score. Serious inquiries ONLY. Thank You.

NHTSA is investigating FCA shifters for roll-away accidents again, this time the rotary units
Tue, Dec 20 2016It seems FCA's shifter troubles aren't over yet. Now, just a few months after issuing a recall to resolve user-related issues with its monostable shifters, the company is again under investigation by NHTSA. The issue is related to the potential for cars to roll away when the rotary-style shifter is not properly placed in park. Two FCA models are the subject of this investigation: the 2013–2016 Ram 1500 and the 2014–2016 Dodge Durango. NHTSA estimates about 1,000,000 vehicles would be affected if a recall is issued. The investigation was started following 43 complaints of vehicles rolling away while supposedly being in "park." Among the complaints were reports of 25 crashes and 9 injuries. NHTSA does point out that in every incident, the parking brake was not engaged. A representative from FCA also gave us an official statement regarding the investigation: "FCA US is cooperating fully with NHTSA's investigation, the scope of which is limited. Other vehicles equipped with rotary shifters are not included. In accordance with prudent practice, the Company joins NHTSA in urging all drivers to use their vehicles' parking brakes." View 35 Photos As mentioned above, other Chrysler products with rotary shifters, such as the Pacifica minivan and 200 sedan, are not involved in this investigation. One of the key differences, as the representative told us, is that these vehicles have electronic parking brakes that automatically engage if the driver does not select park and then opens the door with the seatbelt unbuckled. The Ram 1500 and Durango feature mechanical, manually operated parking brakes and therefore cannot activate the brake automatically. Because this is currently an investigation, an exact cause for the incidents has yet to be determined, and none of the vehicles have been recalled. It's possible there could be a mechanical defect. However, the issue could be a confusing interface causing user error, as was the case with FCA's monostable shifters, where drivers think they've put the car in park but actually haven't. Something that indicates it could be a case of confused users is that NHTSA also opened an investigation into 2012–2014 Jaguar XF and Land Rover Range Rover Evoques for similar issues. Both vehicles use a rotary shifter and have had roll-away complaints levied as well. Even if it is a case of user error, FCA and Jaguar Land Rover may still have to recall their vehicles.
New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]
Tue, Dec 2 2014The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios.
