My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next car or truck through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid as most answers can be found in at least one of those places. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction. Up for a NO RESERVE auction is a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. The Jeep Grand Cherokee needs absolutely no introduction. It's reputation as a rugged and reliable SUV are known the world over. I would rate the exterior of this Grand Cherokee Limited to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for it's age and mileage. As you can see, this is a good looking SUV. It is finished in Flame Red over Tan leather interior, which is a good looking color combination. The bright red finish has a mile deep shine and looks as smooth as glass. As with any older vehicle, please expect a few flaws and imperfections commensurate with age and mileage. On this specific Grand Cherokee, the worst I can say is that you can see some fading on the top of the bumpers and cladding...not bad for an older truck. All of the cladding and trim are present and show well for their age. As I mentioned before, you can see some visible fading on the upward facing portions of the exterior plastics...no biggie. The body lines are nice and straight. The hood, doors and tail gate all open and close easily. All of the glass and lenses are intact. The factory alloy wheels show well for their age and are wrapped in a nice set of matching rubber with deep tread all around. Please take your time and check out each of the photos carefully to see how exceptionally clean this Grand Cherokee Limited looks. I would rate the interior of this Jeep to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for it's age and mileage. The door cards are clean and tight. As with pretty much every older Jeep, the inserts are curling back a little on the door cards, but I don't see any excessive wear...just some age. The same can be said for the seats. The driver's seat has some stitching that is torn from age, but no excessive wear. All the seats are soft, supple and comfortable. The carpets are clean and full looking throughout the interior. The dash and headliner are also clean and show well for their age. The power windows, locks, seats, mirrors and sunroof all work properly. The audio system is original and appears to be working properly. It seems as if the antenna is not connected because the radio will not tune in a station...it just keeps circling and circling the dial. The climate control system is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. The heater works well and the air conditioner will need charged or serviced as it DOES NOT blow cold air. The cargo area is spacious and clean. Again, please take your time and check out each of the photos carefully. Pride in ownership shows throughout this Jeep. Mechanically, this Jeep Grand Cherokee appears to be in good running and driving condition. The 5.2L V8 starts easily and runs smoothly. I didn't notice any leaks and the engine does not smoke. Her road manners are very good for an older Jeep. In fact, I haven't had a Jeep that drove this nicely in quite some time as most of these older Jeeps are worn out and neglected. It's refreshing to drive a nice one again. The suspension feels tight and well sorted. Steering and braking feel good, too. The engine keeps perfect temperature and excellent oil pressure at all times. There have been no idiot lights on during my road test. The optional 5.2L V8 feels strong and makes good power. The automatic transmission engages smoothly and shifts properly with zero issues. Out on the highway, she drives nice and straight with absolutely no complaints. The Quadra Trac 4WD system is tested and working properly. This Jeep is a fresh new car trade from right here in Central PA and has a current PA safety and emissions inspection good through the end of December, 2017. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value of the vehicle and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyers request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle. About Liberty Auto Exchange: We offer a unique way of purchasing a vehicle. We sell vehicles to the public with NO RESERVE auction pricing. Most of the vehicles we sell are trade-ins at new car dealerships or high volume used dealerships in the area. We hand pick each of our vehicles based on quality, value and desirability. Basically...if I wouldnt drive it myself, Im not going to try to sell it to you. We give every vehicle a thorough test drive and a visual inspection before it is offered for sale. We strive to provide the most thorough and accurate description as possible within the scope of our ability. Please understand that we are not mechanics. The opinions contained within the written description should not be taken as a professional mechanics assessment and are not guaranteed. There is additional risk in purchasing a vehicle this way versus buying a vehicle from a retail dealership that has been fully serviced, reconditioned and inspected. We try to mitigate as much of that risk as possible for our customers...just keep in mind that most of our vehicles sell for significantly less than a similar vehicle would be priced on a retail lot. We offer warranties through CARS to help offset as much risk as possible. Please understand that some of the vehicles we sell are disqualified from warranty eligibility due to age, mileage, price or other factors established by CARS. This is out of our control. No amount shall be set aside or discounted if a vehicle does not qualify for coverage under the Terms & Conditions established by CARS. Please see each individual listing for Warranty Eligibility. We have sold over one thousand vehicles on eBay to happy new owners through NO RESERVE auctions and we aim to continue to do so. We are very proud of our feedback score and our many repeat buyers. If you have any questions about how we sell, our policies or questions about a specific vehicle, please send us a message. Vehicles ten model years old and older are exempt from odometer disclosure, this is a federal law. Mileage may be listed as "exempt" or "TMU" on titles for vehicles older than ten model years old. Should we have reason to believe that mileage listed for a vehicle is inaccurate, this will be disclosed within the written description provided for the vehicle regardless of the odometer status listed on the title. Terms and Conditions: Payment Options We accept the following payment methods: - Cash (in person) Vehicle Pickup & Shipping All shipping charges are buyer's responsibility. General Terms Please be sure to read the entire written description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid.

To ask us a question, please send a detailed message through eBays messenger service. This can be done by clicking the link that says "ask seller a question". Please wait to bid until you are completely comfortable doing so. By placing a bid, you assert that you have read and agree to our Terms & Conditions as well as eBays Terms & Conditions.

This decision shall be made by the seller, at its sole discretion, and can be made at any time during the duration of the auction or after the auction has ended. The seller may, at its discretion, cancel any bid at any time and / or block specific members from bidding on current or future auctions. Winning Bidders must contact us by email through eBay within 48 hours of the end of the auction so there is written record of our initial communication.

If paying by Bank Check or Bank Wire Transfer, funds must clear before your vehicle is available for release. We Do Not Accept PayPal or Credit Cards...at all...period. Vehicles left longer than 14 days without prior written permission may be assessed a storage fee of $10/ day. Storage fees will be deducted first from any monies paid to Liberty Auto Exchange. Non-Paying Bidders: We take what we do very seriously and ask that potential bidders take placing their bid just as seriously. Non-Paying Bidders will be assessed a re-listing fee of $249. This fee is considered due and payable, without demand, to Liberty Auto Exchange on the 8th day from the end of the auction. Non-Paying Bidders will be reported to eBay, blocked from bidding on future auctions and may be referred to our Collection Agency for credit reporting and fee recovery. Fees and Taxes The only fee we charge is the $149 Administrative Fee that is also disclosed in the first sentence of the written description. Because we sell with NO RESERVE, we have no way to control how much (if any) money we make per vehicle. This fee helps us isolate a few of our fixed, per transaction expenses in a way that is fair to everyone. The winning bidder is responsible for paying all required fees to their respective state of origin. We are a PennDOT issuing agent and are happy to provide low cost title / tag services to Pennsylvania Residents. *For Out-Of-State Residents, we offer a PennDOT 30 day In-Transit Tag to legally drive your vehicle to your home state.
