1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer on 2040-cars
Old Saybrook, Connecticut, United States
|
For Auction is a 1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. This Jeep is in great condition for a 26 year old vehicle. It lived its whole life in Colorado. It looks and drives great. The reserve price is reasonable.
Mechanically, the Jeep has been gone through top to bottom. It recently passed strict Colorado emission testing with flying colors. All of the original emission control equipment is intact and functional. The engine is strong and starts easily. The 4 wheel drive and cruise control work as they should. The transmission shifts smoothly. The Jeep drives very well. The interior is in great condition. The leather seats are not torn. A/C blows ice cold. All power windows including tailgate were recently serviced and work well. Power seats work perfectly. Power door locks are sometimes a little sticky but work well. The headliner is sagging but not torn. The carpet in the rear cargo area is torn in the corners. The power mirror switch is faulty. The windshield wiper system is "sticky" but works fine. The exterior looks very good, There is almost no rust except for two small spots as shown in the pictures on the front fender and rear quarter panel. The wood surround is in very good shape for the age, the paneling has some peeling. The paint is fading on the left side and the clear coat is peeling on the roof and some other areas. The frame and under-body have virtually no rust. Many new parts were recently installed for the following systems: Emissions: A California compliant catalytic converter (over $400), carbon canister, EGR valve, PCV valve, special curved PCV hose, miscellaneous vacuum hoses. Suspension: Rancho shocks, steering stabilizer, transmission mount. Cooling: Water pump, thermostat, radiator hoses, heater hoses, heater core, fan clutch, used radiator with low miles. Fuel system: Fuel pump, accelerator pump, fuel filter, misc fuel lines. Ignition system: spark plug wires, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, ignition coil, battery. Engine mechanical: drive belts, valve cover gaskets. Trim: Outer window wipes, and inner tailgate wipe. The transmission fluid and filter were recently serviced, as well as differential fluids, and front wheel bearings. There are some issues to be expected on a 26 year old vehicle. The engine and transmission do have minor leaks as could be expected on a vehicle of this age. It will need a muffler soon, all other exhaust components are in excellent condition. The tires are "out of round" from sitting but still have 90% tread. I have been as thorough as possible in the description, so a potential buyer can bid with confidence. I believe that this is a very nice example of these classic Jeeps. It would be a great candidate for a complete restoration, or just driven as is. It should have no trouble passing safety or emission inspection in any state. I recently drove this Jeep from Colorado to Connecticut, over 1500 miles and wouldn't hesitate driving it across country again. A $750 dollar deposit via paypal will be required within 48 hours after the auction ends. Remaining balance in cash or certified check or bank transfer. During regular business hours at a local bank. Any bidder with less than 5 feedback must contact me before placing bids. The Jeep is located in Old Saybrook, CT. Local pickup only. I will consider driving the vehicle a short distance if buyer wishes to arrange and pay for shipping, and payment is complete. All arrangements must be made before conclusion of auction. Additional pictures are available. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you and happy bidding. |

Jeep Grand Cherokee in headliner fire probe
Fri, 23 Aug 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching an investigation into 146,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs from the 2012 model year, The Detroit News reports. This comes as the result of the government safety agency receiving three complaints from owners who cited fires inside the Jeep's cabin.
According to the report, NHTSA says:
"The customers reported a burning odor and visible smoke coming from the headliner while the vehicle was being driven. This was followed by flames from the headliner itself. Customers lowered the windows in an effort to clear the smoke but this increased the fire's intensity. All three vehicles had to be extinguished with a fire extinguisher or by the fire department as they continued to burn after the vehicle was turned off."
Jeep reportedly releasing Peugeot-based, Fiat-built baby 'ute in 2022
Mon, Mar 1 2021Jeep is now under the same Stellantis-branded roof as Peugeot, among other European carmakers. It will take full advantage of its new ownership to quickly develop and launch an entry-level car, according to a new report. Anonymous sources told industry trade journal Automotive News that the yet-unnamed model will be positioned directly below the Renegade. Rumors of a baby Jeep have popped up time and again in the past few years, and most claimed it would share its underpinnings with the Fiat Panda 4x4, an immensely capable city car that's a regular sight in the Alps. Those plans have allegedly changed; the soft-roader is now being designed around the Common Modular Platform (CMP) that underpins the Peugeot 208 and the Citroen C4, among other models. Using the CMP platform unlocks several benefits. It's much newer than the architecture found under the Panda, it's highly modular, and it was developed with gasoline, diesel, hybrid, and electric powertrains in mind. It sounds like the first Peugeot-based Jeep will come standard with front-wheel-drive, and it will offer an optional four-wheel-drive powertrain consisting of a longitudinally-mounted engine that will spin the front wheels and an electric motor that will put the rear wheels into motion. Odds are the motor will be capable of powering the crossover on its own, too. Most of the powertrain components will come from Peugeot. CMP wasn't designed for hardcore off-roading, so we're expecting more of a shrunken Renegade for the boulevard than a downsized Wrangler for the trail. Fiat will build Jeep's smallest model in Tychy, Poland, in a factory that currently churns out the Fiat 500 and the Lancia Ypsilon. Production is tentatively scheduled to start in 2022, and it's too early to tell if we'll see the crossover in America. Its pocket-sized dimensions might keep it away from our shores. It will certainly increase Jeep sales on the European market, where models that sell relatively well in the United States regularly post dismal sales figures. For example, the Grand Cherokee is a seen as a leviathan of a family hauler and the Wrangler is heavily taxed. Peugeot's CMP platform will allegedly underpin the production version of the Alfa Romeo Tonale concept, too. Pegged below the Stelvio, the crossover was originally developed on the Renegade's bones — some sources claim that's still the case, and Alfa Romeo hasn't shed light on the matter. Reportedly, Fiat will later get a CMP-based car.
470,000 Jeep Liberty, Chrysler 200, and Dodge Avenger models recalled for restraint defect
Sat, Oct 14 2017Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said on Friday it is recalling 470,000 vehicles worldwide to replace a component that may inhibit deployment of the vehicles' active head restraints in the event of a crash. Around 414,000 of those vehicles were sold in the United States. Apparently, "a component common to the modules of certain vehicles may degrade after extensive vehicle use." The recall covers 2012 Jeep Liberty sport utility vehicles and 2012-13 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger midsize cars. FCA says a warning light may alert owners to the problem. The Italian-American automaker said it is unaware of any injuries or accidents related to the recall. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened an investigation into the issue in June.
