1997 JEEP CHEROKEE SPORT
IN LESS THAN GOOD RUNNING ORDER
JEEP WILL START AND RUN.
WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF 3RD GEAR WITHOUT LETTING OUT ON THE THROTTLE. LOTS OF TIMES NOT AT ALL. MY SUSPICION IS THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTOR IS PLUGGED SO BAD THAT ITS MESSING WITH THE VACUUM. TROUBLE LIGHT IS ON AND LAST CHECKED IT IS 02 SENSORS. THE SENSORS ARE NEW AS OF LAST TIME WE USED IT BOLSTERING MY SUSPICIONS ON THE CONVERTOR. THIS IS MY AMATEUR OPINION. THE LAST TIME I RAN THIS JEEP THE 4WD TRANSFER CASE WAS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. THE INTERIOR IS IN PRETTY GOOD CONDITION. NO RIPS OR TEARS IN THE SEATS. THE HEAD LINNER HAS LET GO IN 2 SMALL SPOTS AT THE SPEAKERS. SOME RUST BUT ALL IN ALL A SOLID JEEP. DOORS SHUT AND OPEN AS THEY SHOULD, THEY ARE NICE AND TIGHT. LIFT GATE PISTONS ARE SHOT, AS THE LIFT GATE WILL NOT STAY RAISED.
THE JEEP HAS ISSUES, I AM 2 BUSY WITH OTHER PROJECTS TO MESS WITH AND DONT NEED IT. I DONT HAVE THE ABILITY TO TELL U EXACTLY WHAT THE JEEP IS OR IS NOT AND I AM SELLING IT TO YOU AS IS WITH NO WARRANTY IMPLIED.
ASK ALL YOUR QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BID. I WILL BE HAPPY TO HONESTLY ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. THERE WILL BE NO REFUND
PLEASE BE PREPARED TO PICK UP THE JEEP ON THE WEEKEND OF THE 26TH AFTER 5PM, 26TH OR 27TH. CONSIDER THE CAR AS NOT DRIVABLE. IN ITS PRESENT CONDITION I THINK IT WOULD BE A MISTAKE. ALTHOUGH AT YOUR OWN RISK YOU COULD CHOOSE TO DO SO. WHEN YOU ARRIVE WE WILL START THE CAR AND PUT IT IN DRIVE AND ROLL IT, AND REVERSE AND ROLL IT. IF IT DOES NOT DO ANY OF THESE THINGS I WILL GIVE YOU A FULL REFUND ON THE PRICE OF THE JEEP. HOW YOU GET THE CAR WHERE YOU ARE DESTINED FOR IS ULTIMATELY YOUR CONCERN.
NO FUNNY BUSINESS HERE, I WILL OFFER YOU NONE AND TAKE NONE RESPECTIVELY.
THANKS FOR LOOKING AND HAPPY BIDDING

NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Well, no one should ever accuse the government of not giving things plenty of thought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still debating whether it will retest any of the 1.56 million 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002 to 2007 Libertys that were part of a recall regarding fires after rear-end collisions. And yes, this debate has been going on for over a month. In other news...
The recall dustup started in early June, when Chrysler took the unusual position of refusing a recall request from NHTSA regarding placement of the fuel tank on the effected vehicles. NHTSA said a collision could cause a fire, a position Chrysler took issue with. Extensive negotiations ensued, with Chrysler agreeing to fit certain Jeeps with trailer hitches, which it said would provide some protection to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle in the event of a collision.
Part of the issue rests with the amount of data that needs to be processed, according to The Detroit News. NHTSA administrator David Strickland said during a Washington Auto Press Association meeting, "There's a lot of data and Chrysler is being very cooperative in giving us more data." Until that information has been sorted, it looks like re-testing will still be up for debate.
Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
2014 Jeep Compass/Patriot sing their swan songs with a six-speed automatic
Tue, 15 Jan 2013Unless the governor, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, gives them a reprieve, the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot are expected to meet their makers sometime next year. Should they perish, it's a shame that it would happen just as they've shed the continuously variable transmission that was their major bugbear, and just as the Compass has gotten its best looks yet.
Both will roll with a proper six-speed automatic transmission, courtesy of PowerTech. Noise-resistant gears and tuning by Chrysler boffins should alleviate the unappealing sounds that were given off by the older CVT. Unless, that is, you choose to have either model equipped with Freedom Drive II; the serious off-road package, available on both baby Jeeps, will still come with the CVT. The base transmission on the entry-level Sport trim remains the five-speed manual.
Otherwise, it's minor changes for the Compass, set off by the new 18-inch wheel option, trim pieces around the car and a back-up camera. The Patriot gets seat-mounted airbags, but is carryover otherwise. With their expected demises perhaps a year away, not much has changed otherwise. Engine choices comprise the 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 158 horsepower and 141 pound-feet of torque or the 2.4-liter four-cylinder with 172 hp and 165 lb-ft.
