You are looking at my 1981 Jeep CJ7 that I have owned for the past 17 years and it has never left me stranded. This Jeep is in good, but not show condition and it runs great. It has a touch of rust beginning on the hood and drivers side quarter panel, but otherwise it is in great condition. I had the interior, roll bar and wheel wells Rhino lined. As pictured there is an 8,000 lb Warn winch with the accessory bag. It also comes with an additional set of 5 wheels and BF Goodrich 33X12.50 R15LT all terrain tires. The mud tires currently on the Jeep are in good shape with a lot of tread still left. It comes with a tow bar and is wired for towing. It also comes with a light bar that attaches to the windshield. The rear differential is locked to provide positive traction. It comes with a soft top and doors that could use new stitching around the zippers. It still has, with few exceptions; all of it’s original parts. I have added a twin battery rack and charging system to charge both batteries. I also will include a gun rack that mounts where the center console currently sits, a feeder that has a hitch mount so that it clears the spare tire with a 12 V motor and various spare parts Jeep parts I have accumulated over the last 17 years. The carburetor, gas tank and fuel lines were recently replaced due to rust. I used the vehicle for hunting in Mexico and due to the violence down there we haven’t hunted there in 4 years. I hate to see it go, but I’ve just been storing it in my garage for the past 4 years When we look back at some of the more shocking product launches of recent yeras, the Jeep Cherokee is certainly high up on the list. And we aren't just talking about its off-the-wall, polarizing design. The Jeep Liberty has already had plenty of attention for possible fires thanks to the first-gen model's fuel tank, but now the midsize Jeep is under the microscope of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for another fire-related concern. NHTSA has opened an investigation for the 2012 Liberty after receiving two reports of electrical fires in the driver's door. UPDATE: Here is the statement we received from Chrysler regarding NHTSA's query: "Chrysler Group LLC advised the National Highway Traffic Administration of the six reports and, in accordance with the Company's long-standing practice, is cooperating fully with the resulting investigation. Customer safety is paramount at Chrysler Group. Customers who are concerned may call 1-800-853-1403." 2040Cars.com © 2012-2024. All Rights Reserved.

2014 Jeep Cherokee: Introduction
Tue, 27 May 2014
For starters, it brought back the iconic Cherokee nameplate - something Jeep enthusiasts have coveted for ages. But beyond that, it brought a new evolution for the Jeep brand. After all, the Cherokee is car-based - using the same compact platform that underpins the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200. It has a greater focus on technology and refinement than ever before, in an effort to appeal to a new crop of Jeep customers. And powering it all is a new (optional) V6 engine paired with an equally new nine-speed automatic transmission.
Can the Cherokee's car-based roots still allow for a vehicle that's superb when the going gets tough? Will its design still be a love/hate affair in one year's time, or will it start to blend in? Is the powertrain strong enough to not only support the needs of daily driving and road trips, but blaze a few trails as well? We're aiming to answer all these questions, and more, over the next 12 months. Welcome to the Autoblog long-term garage, Cherokee.Jeep Liberty under investigation for door fires
Tue, 29 Oct 2013
According to the investigation summary, around 80,000 vehicles could potentially be affected by this problem. In both reported fires, the drivers noticed smoke and then flames from the master power window switch, and they had to pull to a stop and exit through the passenger side of the SUV. According to Autoguide, there was one injury to a motorist who suffered burned fingers while trying to open the driver's door.
Interestingly, the Dodge Nitro is not yet involved in this investigation, even though it was still around for the 2012 model year; the Nitro ended production in 2011 about a year before the final Liberty rolled off the line for the 2013 model year.

Mon, 02 Jun 2014
It appears that Jeep's repairs for nearly one million Grand Cherokees from 2002-2004 and Liberty models from 2002-2003 might not be over yet. The vehicles were first recalled in November 2012 because the front airbags could suddenly deploy without being in an accident. Now, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a recall query into them because of reports of inadvertent activation on some already corrected vehicles.
The original problem affected over 919,000 vehicles worldwide, including 744,822 in the US, and was caused by a degrading circuit in the wires that control the airbags. In some cases the airbag warning light would come on just before the premature activation, but in other cases it would just happen. The automaker installed an "in-line jumper harness with an integrated electrical filter" meant to eliminate the power spikes believed to be the cause.
