Selling my 1986 Fiero. I have owned it for about two years, and I have driven it during the spring and summer for most of that time. The car is in pretty good shape, the under body has little to no rust on it. I have not had it on salty roads since I owned it, I cannot vouch for previous owners. I bought this car from a guy in Ohio, and there was some issue with the mileage, where a previous owner did not write it down right on the title when transferring and then it got all screwed up. So honestly I am not entirely sure if the mileage is truly low or not. However the quality and shape of the car leads me to believe that the mileage could be relatively accurate. Also I had intended to do an engine swap so I really did not care if the mileage was accurate, I just wanted a good example of a Fiero fastback to drop a large engine into.

The car is completely stock from when I bought it, still has the Ironduke that it had when I bought it. I had to replace the manifold cover and do some other repairs when I bought the car because it had the classic leaking oil issue that was a major problem with the early Fiero's. The car features an aftermarket CD player. Other than that, it is pretty stock, original speakers, has the headrest speakers as well. The electric mirrors and windows still work. I was having some issues with the mirrors with the center panel piece but replacing it would not be a huge process. The interior is pretty clean, I bought seat covers to give the interior a bit of an updated look, the original seats are actually in really good shape with no holes or tears. The dash has some bowing and a few cracks, mainly from sun exposure over the years. At present the sunroof leaks, but that is because of the very old seal, I replaced the bolts and seal pieces around the screws but I never got around to buying a new seal for the whole thing. The head liner is beginning to come apart as well. The windows have lite scratch marks due to the awful dew wipes, but that can be cleaned up as well.

The car will need new tires at some point and probably brake work some time in the near future. The headlight motor or motors will need to be replaced. In regards to the heat and A/C, I think the real issue with the heat is a bad blower motor, simple as that. The A/C though has a cracked pipe in the line that you can see in the engine bay, I enjoy driving with the windows down so it never really bothered me. The gas gauge does not work, it bobs around a bit. I just kept track of mileage and refilled that way, never had any problems. That can certainly be fixed but is a rather involved process I was not willing to pay for. There really is not anything majorly wrong with the engine, it burns a little oil, which is possibly due to bad seals in the engine, but shy of replacing all of them which I am not capable of doing or willing to pay for at this time, or swapping the engine, again cannot afford to do, its really just whatever. I did start the car a couple days ago and she started like a champ even after all this cold. The car has been in the garage since December, and was not outside for the really cold days. I guess thats really all I have to say about this car, feel free to contact me with any questions. I really need to sell this car, I will be moving in a few months, and I do not want to take it with me.

Aficionauto sits down with The Hoff and KITT

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

The latest video from The Aficionauto is the perfect palate cleanser for Knight Rider fans after finding out that Justin Bieber is the voice of KITT in an upcoming film. Host Christopher Rutkowski says that the Knight Industries Two Thousand is one of the most requested vehicles to appear on the series and for good reason - Michael Knight's Pontiac Trans-Am is among the most famous cars to ever appear on television.
While the video isn't able to showcase one of the original KITTs from the series, it does get star David Hasselhoff to drive his personal replica and talk about the lasting legacy of the show. The highlight here might be seeing The Hoff back behind the wheel in the open desert basically recreating Knight Rider's opening sequence.
With all of its flashing lights and gizmos, you can probably make the argument that KITT is pretty cheesy, and the show itself was never exactly a pillar of high-quality drama on television. Despite that, the series still provides a ton of good-natured fun, and The Hoff's continued enthusiasm for it is pretty infectious. Check out The Aficionauto video to take another ride with Knight Rider.

NHTSA investigating 550k Pontiac G6 models, 320k Honda Odysseys

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

According to two separate reports in The Detroit News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching investigations into 550,000 Pontiac G6 (pictured above) and 320,000 Honda Odyssey (pictured right) models. The G6 models are all from the 2005 to 2007 model years, while the Odyssey minivans are from the 2003 and 2004 model years. The two NHTSA probes are not related.
In the case of the G6, this is an upgrade to an original investigation that started in February after NHTSA received "hundreds of reports" that the brake lights on these cars may malfunction. According to The Detroit News, the lights may come on when the brake pedal is not depressed, and likewise, the brake lights may not illuminate when the pedal has been pushed. General Motors was able to provide NHTSA with a significant number of warranty claims, including 1,100 reports that could potentially relate to this problem, one of which indicates a vehicle crash.
For Honda, the NHTSA probe concerns airbags that may deploy unexpectedly. The government agency received six complaints from 2003-04 Odyssey owners saying that the front airbags suddenly went off without a crash. The Detroit News reports that three of the six owners sustained injuries from these incidents. Additionally, NHTSA has received 41 complaints from owners saying the vehicle's airbag warning light had illuminated.

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
