Link to over 30 Hi-res photos. http://imgur.com/a/nvHKi . Jeep is for sale locally as well. I reserve the right to end the auction early. 1980 Jeep Wagoneer. 3rd owner. Purchased in December '13 from Montana as a project. Runs and drives fine. Brakes work. All power options. Burgundy Vinyl interior. Was originally White w/woodgrain but was painted by previous owner. AMC 360 runs great, needs choke adjusted. 727 3 speed automatic trans. NP208 transfer case(part-time) trans shifts like its supposed to, and the 4wd works great. Dana 44 front, AMC20 rear(not sure of the gearing). Has dealer installed travel tank(secondary fuel tank). General tires with lots of tread. Had 48700 miles when I got it shipped here, but the speedo cable was not hooked up. Replaced it and its at 49000 miles now but the last time I was home it stopped working(I think the cable may have frayed from the angle through the firewall, but it did work). Body has maybe 2 or 3 very small spots with surface rust, but no rust through. A couple dings here and there. Frame is nice, and so are the edges all around underneath(Flares, body edges, etc.).Trim is all there and most chrome is good, maybe a few spots here and there that aren't great(it is a 34 year old truck, but I have extra parts available for most of the bad stuff(roof rack slats, tail light, bumpers, etc.) Paint is ugly. Interior isn't terrible, but the door panels are showing their age. seats are nice except for two tears on the back seat from a roof rack that a previous owner had in the backseat. Could use new carpet, but it looks like the front carpet has been replaced already at least once. headliner is nice and firm but has a few cigarette burns and small stains. most of the trim is there and in decent shape, it needs a reflector piece for the drivers side arm rest, and a door pull and some minor odds and ends, but I've seen a lot worse interiors. dash is nice except for a hole where there's what looks like speaker grating in the middle of the dash on top(see pictures). Windshield is cracked. Power locks not working, rear passenger window not working. driver side rear window works but may be off track. A/C has been converted to r134 already. Cruise control not working(I believe this is because the speedo cable is not hooked up) I bought this truck as a project, and spent the last 6 months gathering parts for it, but getting parts is easier than replacing them. I drive a truck for a living, and the 1 week I might get off in a given month just isn't enough time to devote to it, so I'd rather sell it than leave it sit and rust. It's not perfect and it's got its bumps but It runs and drives, and really it's only about 10% from being perfect, but that last 10% is the really expensive stuff(paint, interior). Honestly if you put another 4 or 5 grand into this thing it would be as good or better than anything they're selling on Wagonmasters. It just needs someone with the time to do it, or the money to make it someone else's problem. I plan on selling all the spare parts I've accumulated to cover the rest of the money I've spent, but if you buy the Jeep and would like some of the parts, I'm sure we can work something out. ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BID. NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. VEHICLE IS SOLD AS-IS WHERE-IS. IT IS THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY TO JUDGE AND EVALUATE THE VEHICLE ON HIS/HER OWN. VEHICLE HAS BEEN DESCRIBED TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE. WINNING BID REQUIRES $500 DEPOSIT IMMEDIATELY AT END OF AUCTION AND FULL PAYMENT WITHIN 72HRS. I CAN PROVIDE SOME SHIPPING QUOTES TO THE WINNING BIDDER, BUT AS A RULE IT WILL PROBABLY COST BETWEEN $800-$1100 TO THE LOWER 48 STATES DEPENDING ON WHAT PART OF THE COUNTRY YOU ARE IN. *UPDATES: Title is clean and clear, has new shocks installed and has a new battery. other work done; New 4 barrel AMC intake manifold with freshly rebuilt Motorcraft 4350 Carb(idle needs adjustment) Brand new manifold back exhaust. All new vacuum lines and hoses. new Water Pump, new Fuel Pump, new plugs and plug wires, new solenoid and cables/wires new belts, new filters and oil change, new windshield wiper fluid pump, 6 speakers and a cd player in here(installed by previous owner). I will also be including some extra parts for it that are specific to the jeep. I have a set of pads and shoes, and a fuel filter, new U-joints, a 1.5in add-a-leaf for the rear end and some other stuff that comes with the jeep. |

NHTSA investigating 630k Jeep Wranglers for possible airbag fault
Wed, Jun 24 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into a possible wiring problem on some 2007-2012 Jeep Wrangler models that could affect airbag deployment. The government agency has 221 complaints alleging that the airbag warning light is illuminating, and that could indicate that the safety devices might not deploy in a crash. If a recall is necessary, an estimated 630,000 vehicles could be affected. According to the documents from NHTSA (as a PDF here), a "faulty clockspring assembly in the driver side airbag electrical circuit" could be the culprit. Also, some of the affected Wranglers are showing a fault code that indicates the safety device wouldn't deploy in an accident. However at this time, there are no reports of injuries related to this potential problem. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations are simply meant to investigate and don't necessarily lead to a recall. This isn't the first time for a potential problem like this on the Wrangler, though. A clockspring issue already led to a safety campaign for 2008-2012 right-hand drive Wranglers and an extended warranty for 2007 left-hand drive examples.

Several complaints cite the following diagnostic trouble code (DTC): Code B1B02 Open Squib to driver's air bag. This DTC would indicate a no-fire condition (disablement) for the driver air bag. ODI investigated the RHD (right hand drive) Wrangler for a clockspring issue under PE11-019 which led to NHTSA Recall 11V258 on model year (MY) 2008-2012 RHD Wranglers as well as an extended warranty campaign on MY 2007 LHD Wrangler vehicles. This investigation covers the MY07-12 LHD (left hand drive) Wranglers.
Making the Compatriot the Jeep we want - and deserve
Fri, Jul 8 2016If you're one of the hottest brands in the world, and you need to replace two vehicles that sell at a rate of nearly 200k a year, what exactly are you going to do? Do you take the safe route and attempt to mirror what has largely kept you a success thus far, or do you improve on the formula, and better sort your lineup? After 10 years with the Jeep Compass and Patriot, it is time for both to hang up their jackets and go in for the long dirt nap. And what a strange 10 years it's been. Born of the age of Diamler-Chrysler, the "Merger of equals," the Compass and Patriot were brought into this world to shore up sales of Jeep worldwide, pull on the heartstrings of former Cherokee owners, and make sure teenage girls had an affordable crossover to buy in just a few years. As much as I like to throw shade at each model on both subjective and objective basis, I truly find the purpose of each vehicle to be relatively endearing. For less than $22,000, you could (that is, if you could find one) walk out of your local Jeep dealer with a 4x4 crossover, with a manual gearbox, decent all-weather performance, and somewhat respectable fuel economy. This of course ignores the fact that they weren't packaged all that well, based on the outrageously terrible Dodge Caliber, and used all those shared bits and bobs with Mitsubishi that should have been shelved by 2010. Yet, the twins lived on, and on, and on. We've heard stories as far back as 2012 that they weren't long for our world, and then we get news that they're making it through 2017. Just in time for the "Compatriot" to arrive. I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out what Jeep intends to do with the Compatriot. As far as most blogs seem to know, we're getting a Compass and Patriot replacement that is based on the already well-received Renegade. A little bit of a stretch on the chassis will certainly aid in ride quality, and the Grand Cherokee styling cues will give it a much more upscale demeanor. Even the interior has looked very well executed, with a positively huge uConnect screen set in the middle of the dash. Could Jeep actually be trying to take their Compass and Patriot replacement significantly more up the product chain? I certainly hope so. If you pilot your browser over to the Jeep configurators, you might be surprised by how low the base prices are on almost all of their products. Less than $30k for a new Cherokee? A Renegade for just under $18k? What a deal!
2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee probed by NHTSA for brake problems
Sun, Jun 7 2015Remember how Toyota got in all kinds of trouble over unintended acceleration? Well, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating Jeep over unintended braking. NHTSA has announced a probe of 20,000 Grand Cherokee SUVs from model year 2014. Nine complaints have been received, with owners alleging that their Jeeps have issued brake warnings or gone ahead and applied the brakes when no threat was presented. Each complaint alleges that the vehicles have exhibited this behavior repeatedly, leading to a "sudden reduction in vehicle speed in traffic." So basically, a system designed to prevent accidents could actually increase the odds of a collision happening. Speaking to the Associated Press, Jeep spokesperson Eric Mayne said owners whose vehicles are exhibiting this behavior should report to dealers, while adding that the automatic braking/adaptive cruise control systems can be deactivated. Related Video: Scroll down for the official bulletin on the investigation from NHTSA. Date Investigation Opened: JUN 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15021 Component(s): FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received nine complaints alleging inappropriate activations of the autonomous braking system in model year (MY) 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles. All nine reports alleged unexpected braking incidents preceded by collision imminent brake warnings and resulting in sudden reduction in vehicle speed in traffic. Two complaints reported autonomous braking incidents with no objects on the road resulting in rapid increase in brake force and anti-lock braking system (ABS) activations. The complaints alleged experiencing multiple events at different locations and road conditions. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to assess the frequency, scope and consequences of the alleged defect. The following VOQ numbers are associated with the issues discussed in this resume: 10543837, 10713629, 10690650, 10663320, 10630362, 10596913, 10533622, 10533524, 10651269.
