I have owned this Jeep since it was new and its a pleasure to drive and own. I have used this Jeep in 18" of snow and it went through it with no problem while many Trucks were stranded. I made a lot of money pulling cars and trucks out of a snow banks etc. during heavy snow storms. The Quadra-trac system cant be beat - if your at a stoplight in the rain - floor it and this Jeep grabs the road like it is dry! - amazing. Jeep has been under coated twice when it was new and rustproofed by Ziebart. Has no rust. A 1" spacer was added in the front suspension to give the vehicle the right stance - not the sagged look that most have. The magna flow exhaust has a deep tone that warns passer by`s that you have something special under the hood - it literaly sounds authoritive - mean - ready to pounce if needed. Strong Earth Magnets have been added to engine,transmission and front and rear axles - they act as purifiers and keep the oil clean from metal particles. Synthetic oil and K&N filter has been used 99% of vehicles life after engine break in. I have a hydrogen gas generator kit assembly that I will include if I get my price - this will dramatically increase fuel economy. Presently, the vehicle gets around 18-24 mpg hwy at 70 mph. Has plenty of power for towing. I have a 20' boat and it towed this effortlessly.
Reason for selling: I just acquired a 2000 dodge truck and ready for a new project.
I just had the control arm bushings, ball joints and radiator recently replaced. There has been a lot more done but cant remember it all. Please ask any questions as I may have forgotten some. I am happy to send any pictures you desire. I am not hard up in selling but if I get my fair price I expect, then this Jeep will go to a lucky owner.

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?
Fri, 27 Sep 2013On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."
2014 Jeep Cherokee uncovered with bold new look
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Jeep has been shuttling around Alfa Romeo-based test mules and camouflaged prototypes of its replacement for the current Liberty for some time now. Those heavily disguised vehicles may have offered a glimpse of the new Jeep, but a new set of production-line images from Jalopnik tell a much more complete story.
Jalopnik report indicates unequivocally that the Cherokee name will be re-upped in place of Liberty, though it doesn't spell out exactly where that thinking comes from, though a name change has been rumored for some time. Chances are good that the same source that delivered these factory images delivered the name, as well.
The Cherokee absolutely has some Alfa Romeo DNA in its makeup, the final product is far from looking like its Guilietta ancestor. The athletic, high-waisted design is relatively attractive from what we can see here, though the grille and headlight treatment are sure to cause a lot of ruckus when the Cherokee makes its official debut at the New York Auto Show in April. The very narrow, pointed headlamps are pinched in a not particularly Jeep-ish fashion, and the curved, short version of the seven-slot grille is far more rakish than anything that Jeep has produced to date.
NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires
Sun, 16 Mar 2014The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.
