Vehicle description
Texas car located in Weatherford, TX 76087, Car drives, and has passed both TX safety/operational and emissions inspections. HOWEVER, the Inverter DOES NOT appear to be functioning correctly, and I would not considered driving the car until this issue is corrected. If the Inverter is the issue, I have seen used replacement Inverters on Ebay for less than $200. The car seems to function normally until the Inverter temperature increases at which time power distribution to the wheels seems to diminish. SO, my RECOMMENDATION would be to have the car TRAILERED. VIEW VIDEO BELOW to see operation of vehicle!
This is overall a pretty clean car and would probably make a good daily driver/commuter. Everything appears to be functioning well on the car, except for the presumed Inverter issue mentioned above.
POSITIVES: Steering: Tight Shocks: Good Gas Engine: Runs Well Hybrid Battery: Would show to charge fully when car was being driven regularly Lights: Good Air Conditioning; Cold Heater: Good Back Up Camera: Good Power Windows & Power Locks: Good Interior Seats/Headliner Cloth: Good; some minor stains Carpet: Normal wear with some stains Radio: Good Console Display: Good Dash Display: Functional - Several warning lights are on on (I was told this was normal with a malfunctioning Inverter). Wheels/Tires: Good Glass: Good overall; some minor pitting Body: Good overall, but minor damage to front drivers side quarter panel. Paint: Good overall, but some small hail dings on hood and top & some normal chips/marks Spare Tire & Jack: Good
NEGATIVES: Presumed Inverter/Controller Issue Minor damage to front driver"s side quarter panel Some carpet/stains Some small hail dings on top & hood Some typical chips/marring of paint Minor paint discoloration area on the hood.
