I purchased this vehicle 5 months ago... this was before finding out the family is expanding and we need a larger SUV that being said we do not want to put any additional money into repairs and are choosing to list approx. $1500-$2000 under blue book value to compensate for that, allowing the next owner to take care of any repair work while still keeping value in the vehicle.

As I said it was purchased approximately 5 months ago and I can only speak to the past 5 months since I have owned it. I will be as transparent as possible so you do not get into a vehicle that you do not expect to have to do a little work with. When I purchased it I was told that it had an air hose leak which is why it would hesitate during shifting and an oil leak which caused the check engine light to sporadically come on. Both of these issues existed however the result from them was untrue. Both oil leak and air hose have been fixed. Check engine light once in my possession was not a sporadic thing but a constant and needed to repaired quick in order to pass inspection. It happened to be an intake manifold leak and is now corrected. It also needed new tires to pass inspection and those were purchased and have only been driven approx. 4000 miles on since.

I did not obtain a carfax prior to purchasing and am unsure what the 2 accidents that the one provided states were. As far as cosmetic this vehicle is in excellent condition. There are no major dents, scratches or rust spots. Exterior is in great condition. Interior just needs to be cleaned.

The specs: v6, power windows, power locks, keyless entry, odometer states 67,000 miles, anti lock breaks, air bags, 6 cd changer with cassette and am/fm radio. Cruise control, air conditioning, seats in back fold down, storage compartment in rear, clean title, no liens/loans. Its your basic small SUV and has pretty good gas mileage.

Like I said I will be as transparent as possible and since I have taken it off the road and did not have a diagnostic done I will do my best to explain exactly what the vehicle does so you can get a good idea of what may need repaired. If you are a mechanic, or know/have a good mechanic I am sure whatever the issue is should be fixable without a problem. First, AC does not blow cold, possible recharge? Second wiper blade in rear does not work, was told needed a new motor approx. $150 including labor. Third turning signal will work 90% of the time but will randomly stop, was told $250 to fix including labor. Last the vehicle will start and run with no problem but sometimes (this is really not an every time occurrence) when placed from park to first it will hesitate. When you push on the gas the vehicle will not move. When it does this it revs the engine then kicks forward finally allowing you to drive freely. When it does this it will then hesitate at stop lights when accelerating etc. When it does not do it from the start it drives just fine. This was a recent development and the main reason I decided to take it off the road and start looking for a larger SUV. As I am not a "car person" I can not really speculate as to what the fix will be.

You are purchasing this vehicle "as-is" and are responsible for pick up. Payment must be made in full within 7 days and deposit required within 48 hours. Any questions please ask prior to bidding.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]

Fri, 18 Dec 2009

Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...

Saturn Ion steering probe closed by NHTSA

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has closed its investigation into faulty electric power steering motors affecting 334,728 Saturn Ions from 2004-2007, because General Motors has issued a recall for them. The group's research found that the part failed at a high rate in the vehicles.
GM recalled over 1.3 million vehicles a few weeks ago, including the Ion, because the power steering could suddenly fail. If broken, the cars could still turn, but it took greater effort. The automaker is also covering 96,324 2003 Ions with a lifetime warranty for their motors, but it's not immediately replacing them.
NHTSA opened its investigation into the motors in September 2011, and it found 4,787 complaints and 30,560 warranty claims that showed failure for the Ion alone. It estimated a complaint rate of 14.3 incidents per 1,000 vehicles and warranty claim rate of 9.1 percent. The investigation also found evidence of 12 crashes caused by loss of steering, two of which resulted in injuries.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
