2001 PT Cruiser 165,000 miles.


     This clean good running car developed a serious coolant leak on the passenger side of the engine, likely a water pump seal.  The previous owner had a deer collision witch left the hood dented, front grill cracked, windshield cracked and air conditioner compressor damaged.  Repairs included a new radiator,  and intake manifold.  The hood works but looks a bit rough.  
     The overall condition of the rest of the car is about what you would expect of a car with high mileage.  There are a few dings here and there, few rattles, and a little rust.  As you can see in the pictures.  The brake pads have been replaced recently and the brakes work, even though the rotors look a bit rough.  The battery is less than a year old and the interior is  exceptionally clean.  The stock radio was replaced.  
     This would be a good work car or beginner's car for someone with the mechanical ability to repair the leak.   With  the low starting price it would leave room for a mechanic to do the repairs and make a fair profit.

The Car needs to be picked up with  a trailer or car hauler.   Not driveable with out repairs.  Must Be Paid With Pay-Pal or Cash!!
Sold As Is with No Waranty!!

Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.

Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue.
