For sale is a 1972 Jeepster Commando. I bought this Jeep from the family of deceased man here in town. The man that owned it bought it for the sole purpose of pulling it behind his camper when he went camping. The Commando was only used for vacations, and was parked in a carport the rest of the time. The man lost his health and was unable to go camping any longer. The Commando just sat at that point. The last time it was tagged was 2007. It was just sitting after that. I bought it a few weeks ago, and put a battery in it and it fired right up. The belt that runs the alternator and water pump broke, so I had it replaced. Other than that, this Commando is in the same condition as when I bought it. The Commando has been painted at some point in time, and still looks pretty good. The Commando is all original except the paint. There was also a new exhaust system ran at some point. Other than that, this Commando is ORIGINAL. It has ORIGINAL 55k miles on it. It has a nice set of tires, which seem to be in good shape. The Commando runs nice and quiet and very smooth. I can not believe how great it does run. The seats have some tears, the headliner is sagging, but other than that there's not too much wrong with it. It has a 304 V8 with auto trans, and 4x4. It has the factory A/C that still works. I have been researching these Commandos, and A/C seems to be a rare find. The only reason I bought it was that my wife thought it was "cute". I really would just like to sell it and get it out of the way. I have too many other vehicles in the driveway. If you want to know any more info, or want to see more pics, please feel free to call/text me at 704 813 3787, or email me davisjr01@gmail.com. You really have to see this Jeep in person to appreciate it. I also have the original owner's manual, repair guide, and some paperwork the family gave me for the Jeep.

Mopar introduces winter tire and wheel packages
Wed, Dec 2 2015Winter is coming, and Mopar will try to help drivers stay safe in the cold weather this year by offering a winter tire and wheel package for a variety of FCA US vehicles for the first time. The packages combine everything drivers need to be prepared for slick roads, including winter tires, steel wheels, and Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors. Even better, the company delivers them mounted, balanced, and ready for installation. Customers can order the bundles from dealers now. Mopar offers packages with the General Altimax Arctic tire on the Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, Jeep Cherokee, and Chrysler 200. All- and rear-wheel drive configurations of the Chrysler 300 get the Michelin X-Ice Xi3, and the all- and rear-drive Dodge Charger models use the Continental WinterContact SI. Depending on the vehicle, prices vary between $242 and $292 per wheel, and Mopar will expand the program to even more models next year. Spending the extra money on winter tires really can make a difference. Experts are clear that the specialized rubber simply works better when the weather gets cold. They can shorten braking distances and improve traction – even with all-wheel drive. Plus, winter tires can often last for more than one year, which spreads out the investment.

The all-new Mopar winter wheel assemblies are available for order for a variety of FCA US vehicles. Assemblies include a winter tire, steel rim and Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), and are delivered mounted and balanced, so you or your dealership can quickly and easily pop off all-season rims and rubber and put on cold-weather appropriate gear. "Mopar is rolling out our first-ever offering of winter wheel assemblies for those customers who desire a little extra control during the cold weather seasons," said Pietro Gorlier, Head of Parts and Service (Mopar), FCA – Global.
25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel
Mon, 10 Mar 2014Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.
