Summary

12/8/2020: MY DAUGHTER HAD JUST RETURNED HOME FROM COLLEGE LITERALLY THAT MORNING DRIVING THROUGH NYC TO DE. THAT AFTERNOON SHE WENT OUT TO SEE A FRIEND AND THOUGHT SHE HAD A FLAT TIRE WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 50 MPH AND STRUGGLED TO PULL OVER. IT WAS AT NIGHT SO WE COULDN'T SEE THE DAMAGE. WE CALLED AAA TO COME CHANGE THE TIRE. HE EXAMINED THE FLUID UNDER THE TIRE AND THEN IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT TIRE ROD FELL AND PUNCTURED THE TIRE. WE COULD ALSO SEE A LONG BLACK TRAIL WHERE THE TIRE ROD DRAGGED ON THE ROAD BEFORE SHE COULD STOP. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID IF SHE DIDN'T STOP WHEN SHE DID SHE WOULD HAVE FELL INTO THE DEEP DITCH NEXT TO IT AND IT WOULD HAVE FLIPPED OVER. CONSIDERING IT WAS DARK SHE WAS LUCKY AND EVEN LUCKIER THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY IN NYC ONLY A FEW HOURS EARLIER. BUT WHAT WAS EVEN MORE DISTURBING IS THE FRONT UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL ARMS WERE JUST REPLACE THE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARMS DUE TO CORROSION WAS DONE AT THE DEALER, ALONG WITH AN ALIGNMENT. (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V278000). IT'S CLEAR THAT THE RECALL SHOULD ALSO INCLUDE REPLACING THE FRONT CONTROL ARMS. THE WINDOW REGULATOR ALSO FAILED THE WEEK BEFORE.

I HAD A RECALL REPAIR AFTER I RECEIVED THE LETTER IN THE MAIL SO I WENT AND HAD IT SERVICED AFTER I WAITED FOR THE BACKORDER. I HAD THE REAR LOWER SUSPENSION ARMS DONE AS IN THE RECALL AT SECRET CITY DODGE IN OAK RIDGE TN. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A WEIRD CREAKING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR AND I TOOK IT BACK AND EXPLAINED TO THEM AND THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING. I BROUGHT IT TO ANOTHER SHOP AND HAD THEM INSPECT AND THEY SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T TORQUE THEM RIGHT AND THE NOISE WAS FROM FAULTY PARTS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY AGAIN SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG AND THEY SPRAYED SOME LUBRICANT ON THE BUSHINGS TO QUIET THE NOISE. IT DIDN'T DO ANYTHING AND MADE ME QUESTION WHY THEY HAD TO DO THAT IF THE PARTS WERE NEW. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND THEY AGAIN SENT ME DOWN THE ROAD. WELL AS TIME WENT ON I WAS HAVING MORE PROBLEMS WITH STEERING AND HAVE BEEN TO TO OTHER SHOPS AND HAD BALL JOINTS ALL REPLACED AND EVERY SHOP SAID THAT THE REAR SUSPENSION ARMS WERE NOT GOOD AND I JUST WENT TODAY (JAN 23,2020) AND AND IT LOOKED AT BY A LOCAL REPUTABLE SHOP WHERE I LIVE BECAUSE THE STEERING IS OUT OF CONTROL.. THEY SHOWED ME IN THE BAY WITH MY CAR UP AND THE BACK WHEELS MOVE FORWARD AND BACKWARD BECAUSE OF THE BAD BUSHINGS IN THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS THAT WERE REPLACED BY SECRET CITY DEALERSHIP. THEY ALSO SAID THEY NEED TO BE REPAIRED ASAP AND I GOT THAT IN WRITING FROM THEM. I ALSO HAVE FROM A JEEP SPECIALTY SHOP ABOUT HOW THEY WERE INSTALLED WRONG AND HAVE THAT IN WRITING. I DID NOT WANT TO GET THEM REPLACED BY THE SAME DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THEY ARE TERRIBLE WITH CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND COULD CARE LESS ABOUT MY SAFETY. I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF MY VEHICLE AND IT HASN'T EVER BEEN IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE. I USE IT TO DRIVE LOCALLY AND THAT IS IT. I HAVE CALLED NFSTA SEVERAL TIMES AND AM WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM THEM. PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT. NOT MY FAULT

AS YOU'RE ALL AWARE ABOUT THE CONSTANT AND PREDICTABLE WINDOW REGULATOR FAILURE ON PRETTY MUCH ALL JEEP LIBERTY'S CONTINUES TO THIS DAY. I REALIZE THE WARRANTY HAS BEEN EXTENDED AN ADDITIONAL SEVEN YEARS BUT THE REPLACEMENT PART HASN'T BEEN UPGRADED. MY JEEP HAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000 MILES ON IT AND THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACED OVER FIFTEEN TIMES. GRANTED THE WARRANTY PAID FOR ABOUT HALF OF THEM BUT I'M DISABLED AND LIVING ON SOCIAL SECURITY AND CAN'T AFFORD THIS DEFECT MUCH LONGER. I THOUGHT ABOUT SELLING IT BECAUSE IT'S OTHERWISE FLAWLESS HOWEVER, WORDS HAS GOTTEN AROUND AND THE RESALE I'M TOLD IS ABOUT 1,500 DOLLARS. AT THE MOMENT TWO OF MY WINDOWS ARE TAPED CLOSED. IF I HAD TO PAY FOR ALL THE REGULATORS THAT FAILED IT WOULD'VE COST APPROXIMATELY 9,000 DOLLARS. SINCE THE 7 YEAR EXTENSION HAS NOW EXPIRED I USUALLY HAVE TO REPLACE ONE ABOUT EVERY 3-4 MONTHS. AND, I ONLY PUT LESS THAN 1000 MILES A YEAR ON MINE. I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE TRADED IT IN FOR A NEW ONE BUT BECAUSE JEEP DECIDED THE MONEY THEY MADE WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN CUSTOMER LOYALTY COUNT ME OUT AND THE MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE AWARE OF MY SITUATION FEEL THE SAME. I'M SURE YOU HEARD ABOUT THIS SEVERAL MILLION TIMES BY NOW MY COMPLAINT WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO YOUR SPAM MAIL FOLDER. DO AS YOU PLEASE AND ME AND EVERYONE WHO'S AWARE OF THIS WILL DO THE SAME.

THIS PROBLEM MAKES US NOT WANT TO OPEN ANY OF OUR WINDOWS, WHICH IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT WHICH SHOULD BE UNDER A RECALL. THE TRACK IS PLASTIC AND IT BREAKS A LOT . I'VE HEARD MANY COMPLAINTS FROM UNSATISFIED JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. WE WERE PARKED AND MY WIFE TRIED TO OPEN THE WINDOW AND IT SNAPPED AND THE POWER WINDOW WOULDN'T ROLL BACK BACK UP AND WE WERE STUCK WITH THE WINDOW HALF WAY UP AND IT WAS 5 DEGREES OUTSIDE...NOT FUN !!!!

ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. ALSO ABS, TRACTION, EPS LIGHTS FLASH ON INTERMITTENTLY FOLLOWING A WARNING SOUND. THIS PANEL ISSUE CAN OCCUR UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE OR WHILE DRIVING ON BOTH INTERSTATE AND ON CITY ROADS. HAVE BROUGHT IT TO MY MECHANIC THREE TIMES NOW. MY MECHANIC HAS PLUGGED THE UNIT INTO THE DIAGNOSTIC SYSREM TO CHECK ERROR CODES AND IT REGISTERED FIVE RANDOM ERROR CODES SIMULTANEOUSLY WHICH HE FELT WERE UNRELATED TO THE IISSUE, NOR WAS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE THOSE FIVE RELATED CODES ALL AT ONCE. HE SUSPECTED THAT IT WAS A PANEL MALFUNCTION AND WONDERED IF A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED THAT HE WAS UNAWARE OF. BUT HE WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS OF CHECKING CONNECTION AND CLEANING CONNECTIONS ANYWAY. HE SUGGESTED TO BRING IT BACK TO A JEEP MANUFACTURER FOR FURTHER EVALUATION IF IT RECURRED AGAIN, WHICH IT DID! FROM THE COMPLAINTS LISTED, IT SOUNDS LIKE JEEP DOES KNOW EITHER BUT THEY CONTINUE TO CHARGE CONSUMERS FOR REPAIRS THAT HAVE NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM. OBVIOUSLY DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE PER CUSTOMERS COMPLAINTS EITHER. PERHAPS SOMEONE IS WAITING FOR A TRAGEDY BEFORE ANY TYPE OF RECALL IS CONSIDERED WHICH IS SAD.

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP DOWN A STEEP ROAD IN THE SUMMER 2016 WHEN THE ESP BAS LIGHTS CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO OUR LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS BEING A 'CLOCKSPRING' ISSUE. WHEN THEY CHECKED FOR AVAILABILITY, IT WAS BACK ORDERED -60 AND EVEN TOLD ME THEY MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO GET ONE, WHICH TO ME MEANS THAT IS IS AN ISSUE THAT HAPPENS QUITE FREQUENTLY. I DID ASK IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PART AND WAS TOLD 'NO'. I WAS TOLD THAT NORMALLY THE CLOCKSPRING IS LIFETIME WARRANTIED. NOT THE CASE WITH THE JEEP LIBERTY. THEY FINALLY FOUND ONE AND I HAVE IT SCHEDULED TO BE PUT IN TOMORROW, 03/31.2017. THIS PART IS COSTING ME A LOT OF MONEY. I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS RELATED TO THE SPRING, BUT OCCASIONALLY MY WHEELS LOCK FOR APPROXIMATELY A SECOND OR 2. YOU CAN FEEL THE BRAKE APPLY AND HEAR IT MAKE A SOUND ON THE ASPHALT. LIKE A SKID. I AM GOING TO TELL THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE ON 03/31. I AM A SENIOR WHO DOES NOT HAVE A LOT OF MONEY; AS A MATTER OF FACT, I HAD TO BORROW THE MONEY TO REPAIR MY JEEP.

Summary

HAVE A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY, WHERE THE WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE FAILED 5 TIMES. 3 TIMES WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. LAST TIME (11/09/15) HAD TO PAY $450.00 FOR REPAIR. THIS TIME, THE ESTIMATED COST IS ANOTHER $450.00. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. FIVE FAILURES FOR THE SAME PART IS RIDICULOUS. I UNDERSTAND THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION SUIT BROUGHT AGAINST CHRYSLER FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT DON'T KNOW IF THAT SUIT IS STILL ACTIVE OR IF I CAN GET ADDED TO IT, OR IF I CAN GET REIMBURSED FOR THE REPAIR. I AM LOCATED IN FLORIDA.

THE GAP WAS NOT REPAIRABLE; THE FIX WAS TO TAPE OFF THE OUTSIDE OF THE SUNROOF. THIS STILL LEAVES THE POSSIBILITY THAT WASTER CAN GET INTO THE INNER FUSE BOX AND POSSIBLY CAUSE A SHORT OR A FIRE.

Summary

WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT, (LITERALLY MOVED MAYBE 2 INCHES) THE LOWER FRONT CONTROL ARM AND BALL JOINT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BROKE SUDDENLY. FROM WHAT I HAVE FOUND DURING MY RESEARCH THERE HAVE BEEN A NUMBER OF ISSUES WITH THIS SAME PART FAILING WITHIN THE LAST YEAR. MORE SO, THERE WAS A RECALL OF THE REAR CONTROL ARM/BALL JOINT AND THE FRONT WAS RECALLED ON THE 2005 MODELS IN 2006. THERE IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE WITH THE CONTROL ARMS IN 2005-2007 LIBERTY MODELS. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THE FRONT CONTROL ARMS SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE FAILING PART APPEARS TO HAVE CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE TIRE AS WELL AS THE TIRE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN LEANING INWARD AND RUBBING ALONG SOMETHING ALONG THE INTERIOR, UNDERSIDE OF THE WHEEL WELL. IT IS A GOOD THING THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TRAVELING AT ANY SIGNIFICANT RATE OF SPEED OR THERE COULD HAVE BEEN SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE OR DEATH.

I CAN FEEL HOW IT'S TRYING TO SWITCH BACK AND FORTH. THIS VEHICLE IS BECOMING A LEMON. I'VE CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP, CRANK AND CAM SENSORS AND ALSO CHANGED SWITCHES IN THE STEERING COLUMN. IN WHICH NONE OF FIXED THE PROBLEMS. AFTER TALKING TO THE DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD THE WIRING HARNESS NEEDS TO BE CHANGED BUT THAT PART IS DISCONTINUED.... THE VEHICLE ISN'T 10 YEARS OR OLDER AND AFTER RESEARCHING THESE ISSUES THERE ARE MANY MANY LIBERTY OWNERS WITH THESE SAME ISSUES. HOW CAN WE FIX OUR VEHICLES IF THIS PART ISN'T AVAILABLE TO US OR THE DEALERSHIP??? JEEP HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ALL ALONE BUT DOESN'T WANT TO HAVE TO DO A RECALL ON EVERY SINCE JEEP TO FIX THIS ISSUE BUT I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER JEEP UNLESS THEY FIX THE ISSUE.. I LOVE THE VEHICLE OTHER THAN THE PROBLEMS I'M HAVING. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GIVEN TIME WITHOUT NOTICE AND IS BECOMING WORST. IF I LOSE POWER AND I'M DRIVING THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH LOTS OF INJURIES IF NOT DEATH. PLEASE MAKE JEEP FIX OUR VEHICLES. I CAN'T AFFORD TO BUY A NEW VEHICLE. THIS BODY IS IN GREAT SHAPE

AFTER REVIEWING THE INFORMATION AND REVIEWING CHRYSLERS DETAILED WORK INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FIX WITH PICTURES OF THE VARIOUS LEVELS OF CORROSION (SEE PAGE 8 IN RCRIT-13V252), THINGS DIDN'T MAKE MUCH SENSE. I CALLED THE DEALER BACK AND THEY STATED THE THREADS NOT THE FRAME HAD LEVEL 5 CORROSION. FURTHER IN ON PAGE 10-11 IT TALKS ABOUT REPLACING THESE STUDS IF THEY ARE CORRODED. THEY OFFERED NO REMEDY FOR THE SITUATION OR CORRECTION NEEDED TO PREPARE THE THREADED STUD, THEIR INSTRUCTIONS SAY TO REPLACE ANYWAY. I'M LEFT WITH AN UNSAFE VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT MY FAMILY IN. ATTACHED ARE THEIR DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS AS WELL AS A PICTURE OF THE AREA IN QUESTION.

THESE REPAIRS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE PARTS NEEDED TO BE "VIN SPECIFIC." I WAS FINALLY TOLD THAT THE ONLY REMEDY IS A SPRAG AND PAD RESTRAINT, AND THAT THERE ARE ONLY FIVE AVAILABLE IN THE UNITED STATES. AFTER WAITING FOR THE PART TO COME IN, THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THE PART WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. THE PART IS NOT MANUFACTURED ANY LONGER. I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE. THEY GAVE MY DEALER ANOTHER PARTS SOURCE, BUT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE THERE EITHER. I NOW HAVE A CAR WITHOUT FUNCTIONING AIRBAGS.

NOTHING WAS STOLEN BUT I WAS SURE I LOCKED IT. SURE ENOUGH WHEN I TESTED THE LOCKS, THE DOOR DID NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK USING THE KEY FOB, THE DOOR LOCK BUTTON ON THE INSIDE OR THE AUTO LOCK FEATURE WHEN GOING OVER 15MPH..

ALMOST EVERY TIME I FILL-UP, THERE IS A SPLASH-BACK FROM THE FUEL FILLER OPENING. THIS APPARENTLY IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE LIBERTY MODEL AMONG OTHERS. I SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY FOR ANY REPAIRS SINCE THERE WAS NO RECALL THAT WOULD PAY FOR IT. I THEN CONTACTED CHRYSLER WHO TOLD ME THAT MY SPECIFIC LIBERTY IS NOT PART OF ANY RECALL OR TSB SO THEY CANNOT HELP. I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM POSES A HAZARD IF THE GAS WAS TO IGNITE. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE WAS ON 26 FEBRUARY 2016.

Summary

DESPITE GOOD MAINTENANCE RECORDS, ENGINE SEIZED WHILE JEEP WAS IN MOTION, RESULTING IN TOTAL LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, STEERING AND BRAKE ASSIST. THERE WERE ZERO WARNINGS SUCH A THING WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. NO ENGINE LIGHT. NO ABNORMAL ENGINE NOISE. NOTHING. THE ENGINE JUST SEIZED. FORTUNATELY THIS DID NOT HAPPEN WHILE GOING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. DEALER DESCRIBED ENGINE FAILURE AS 'ONE-IN-A-MILLION.' VALVE FELL INTO CYLINDER, CAUSING A DESTRUCTIVE CHAIN REACTION. UPON CONTACTING CHRYSLER'S CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND PRESENTING MY 'ONE-IN-A-MILLION' TYPE OF FAILURE (CASE ID# 28648873), I REQUESTED SUPPORT, BUT WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER WOULD NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANY KIND OF SUPPORT AND THAT THE DECISION WAS FINAL. DOES ANYONE GO OUT BUYING A USED CAR EXPECTING THAT THE ENGINE WILL RUIN ITSELF ALL THE SUDDEN, JUST BECAUSE IT'S OVER 100K MILES? (THE MILEAGE BEING ONE OF THE REASONS WHY NO SUPPORT WOULD BE PROVIDED) THE 'AUTOCHECK' REPORT LISTED ONLY TWO OWNERS BEFORE ME. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD BOUGHT THIS AS A 'PRE-OWNED CERTIFIED' CAR, AND AFTER 6 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP AND PROPER MAINTENANCE LET GO OF IT. THE AUTOCHECK REPORT RATED IT 79 ON A SCALE FROM 71 TO 84, AND I WAS IN EFFECT, JUST THE THIRD OWNER! THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD TO UNFORTUNATELY SURRENDER THE CAR TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY, GIVEN THE EXPENSIVE COSMETIC REPAIR COST OF A REAR END IMPACT. I PURCHASED THE CAR AT A PUBLIC AUTO AUCTION AND GOT THE REAR END REPAIRED. AS WEEKS HAVE GONE BY AND I'VE BEEN RESEARCHING MY OPTIONS, I HAVE COME TO LEARN THAT THOSE 3.7L POWERTECH ENGINES HAD SOME DESIGN FLAWS THAT HAVE COST NUMEROUS JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS ANYWHERE FROM DROPPED VALVES, TO FALLEN ROCKER ARMS, LEADING IN CASES LIKE MINE, TO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. HAD MY ENGINE FAILURE TAKEN PLACE AT HIGHWAY SPEED, A POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING OUTCOME COULD HAVE HAPPENED.

Summary

THE STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AT ARBITRARY TIMES AND THEN REMAINS ON FOR THE REMINDER OF MY DRIVE. WHEN MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS AT SPEED, THERE IS A "GRINDING" NOISE THAT EMINATES FROM THE LEFT FRONT TIRE & ALMOST FEELS LIKE I WILL LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND DIAGNOSTIC REVEALED IT WAS A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND THAT THE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR IS ERRATIC, THEREBY CAUSING THE SLIPPAGE. PART IS ON BACK ORDER FOR A *MINUMUM* OF THREE WEEKS FROM THE MANUFACTURER - WAS INFORMED THAT THERE ARE 113 OF THESE BACKORDERED PARTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY, WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR BEING A RECALL ISSUE. THE ISSUE OF THE SLIPPAGE ONLY HAPPENS WHILE MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS AND NEVER WHEN MAKING LEFT HAND TURNS. THE ONLY WAY TO AVOID THIS ISSUE IS TO ALMOST LITERALLY STOP ON BUSY ROADWAYS TO THEN TURN RIGHT. WAS INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE WILL NOT BE SAFE ON WATER-COVERED ROADWAYS AND AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS CONSIDERING THE UPCOMING INCLEMENT WEATHER WE ARE EXPECTING AS A RESULT OF THE HURRICANE, BUT YET IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM WORK.

I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND INFORMED THEM OF THIS AND THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT IT IS AN ONGOING CHRYSLER ISSUE AND TO NOT LET THE GAS TANK TO GET BELOW A QUARTER TANK. THEY PROCEEDED TO RESET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. 2 WEEKS LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. SO I TOOK TO A LOCAL AUTO STORE TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTICS RUN AND WAS INFORMED THAT A WHEEL BEARING WAS NEEDED, A CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND A FUEL LINE BECAUSE AT A CERTAIN LEVEL THE GAS WILL NOT REACH THE ENGINE. TODAY IN SOUTH CAROLINA THE TEMPERATURE IS WELL OVER 100 DEGREES AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING. I HAVE HAD MORE ISSUES OUT OF THIS CAR WITHIN THE 30 DAYS I HAVE HAD IT. I DID PURCHASE A WARRANTY ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO BEAR SOME OF THE COST TO FIX A VEHICLE I JUST PURCHASED. I AM NOW WAITING ON A CALL FROM THEIR MECHANIC ONCE HE GETS THE PARTS IN TO DO THE REPAIRS. I BELIEVE I WAS KNOWINGLY SOLD A LEMON. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT IF I HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THE CAR TO BRING IT IN AND I WILL BE GIVEN A LOANER CAR. WELL WHEN I DID BRING IT IN I WAS BASICALLY TOLD TO GET IN LINE AND WAIT BECAUSE THEY HAD NO LOANER VEHICLES. NOW I AM BASICALLY STUCK WITH A VEHICLE WITH NO AIR AND IF THE GAS GET PAST A HALF TANK THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF AND IF NOT REPAIRED SOON COULD POTENTIALLY BLOW UP WITH ME AND MY CHILDREN IN IT. YES I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER TO REQUEST ANOTHER VEHICLE AND WAS BASICALLY BRUSHED OFF AND TOLD NO.

Summary

WHEN PUMPING GAS AND IT SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY GAS SPEWS OUT LIKE A VOLCANO FROM THE GAS TANK. IT'S SO BAD THAT THE GAS ATTENDANT HAS HAD TO COME OVER AND PUT ABSORBENT MATERIAL ON TOP OF THE GAS SPILL AND WE'VE HAD TO WASH DOWN OUR CAR SO IT WON'T EAT THE PAINT. I CONTACTED JEEP WHO TOLD ME THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, BUT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH OTHER JEEP MODELS AND THERE IS A CURRENT RECALL ON THOSE MODELS. IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY NEED TO EXPAND THEIR RECALL TO INCLUDE THE 2007 JEEP LIBERTY'S THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU. *TR

Summary

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK THE SENSOR THAT INDICATES THE TANK IS FULL IS DEFECTIVE. WHEN IT SHUTS OFF THE GAS PUMP, GAS SPEWS OUT OF THE TANK HEAVILY, GETTING ON AUTO, GROUND AND PERSON. I SPOKE TO CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS DEFECT BUT HAVE NOT ISSUED A RECALL. THEY FURTHER ADVISED THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL REPAIR EXPENSES IF I CHOOSE TO HAVE THE TANK REPLACED. THIS IS A SERIOUS DEFECT THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD FIX. THE JEEP LIBERTY HAS POORLY DESIGNED GAS TANKS, THEY SPEW GAS UPON FILLING AND CATCH FIRE UPON REAR IMPACT. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE MADE TO CORRECT THESE ISSUES AND STOP OFFERING PATCHES, I. E. HITCHES THAT HELP PROTECT GAS TANKS IN REAR CONTACT/IMPACT UNDER 40 MPH, THAT DON'T PROTECT THE CONSUMER FROM SERIOUS BODILY HARM AND/OR DEATH. THESE RISK NEED TO ELIMINATED, NOT PACIFIED! *TR

Summary

RIGHT FRONT OF 2007 JEEP LIBERTY FELL TO THE GROUND JUST AFTER MOVING FORWARD IN A PARKING LOT. WHEEL BENT OUT AND ALL FLUIDS RELEASED TO THE GROUND. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED A FEW MINUTES LATER WOULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN PUSHED, SO MOST LIKELY AT THAT SPEED IT WOULD HAVE FLIPPED OVER CARRYING A MOTHER AND CHILD. JEEP HAD RECALLS FOR THIS PROBLEM THROUGH 2005. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS EXACT ISSUE ON THE 2007. JEEP REFUSED TO ASSIST IN ANY WAY. THE MANAGER STATED THAT IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. PARTS NEEDED FOR REPAIR: CONTROL ARM, BALL JOINT AND WHEEL WHICH WAS CRACKED WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED. 1231.00. JEEP NEEDS TO STEP UP AND COVER/REIMBURSE FOR SAFETY ISSUES THAT ARE KNOWN ISSUES ON THEIR VEHICLES. NO GOOD FAITH FOR SAFETY FROM JEEP. RECALL THESE PARTS BEFORE PEOPLE GET KILLED. *TR

Summary

THE UPPER MOUNTING NUT FOR THE RIGHT REAR PASSENGER SEAT BEAT SHOULDER LOOP IS PRONE TO SHEAR OFF THE MOUNTING PLATE THE NUT IS WELDED TO INSIDE THE C-PILLAR. THIS CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME THE UPPER SEAT BELT LOOP IS SERVICED. I HAD THIS HAPPEN TO MY VEHICLE WHEN INSTALLING THE MOPAR TRAILER TOW WIRE HARNESS. THE INSTALL OF THE WIRE HARNESS CALLS FOR THE REMOVAL OF THE RIGHT REAR INTERNAL TRIM PANEL AND THE UPPER RIGHT REAR PASSENGER SEAT BELT MOUNT. TO REMOVAL THE UPPER SEAT BELT BOLT I HAD USED A T47 BIT SOCKET ON 3/8" RATCHET HANDLE. WHILE REMOVING THE SEAT BELT BOLT, THE BOLT STARTED TO SPIN FREELY AND NOT BE ABLE TO BE REMOVED. I HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC FOR ADVICE AND THEY SAID TAKE IT TO A BODY SHOP. ABRA AUTO BODY IN MADISON, WI HAD PLACED A CAMERA INSIDE THE RIGHT REAR C-PILLER TO FIND THE REASON FOR THE BOLT SPINNING FREELY. ABRA HAD FOUND THAT THE INTERNAL SEAT BELT NUT HAD BROKEN FREE FROM WELDS THAT HOLD THE NUT TO THE RIGHT REAR C-PILLAR. THAT FACT THAT I WAS ABLE TO HAVE THIS SEAT BELT BOLT NUT BREAK FROM ITS WELDS WITH JUST SMALL HAND TOOLS CONCERNS ME THAT THE ENTIRE JEEP LIBERTY FLEET IS PRONE TO REAR PASSENGER SEAT BELT MOUNT POINT FAILURES DURING A CRASH. *TR

I MANAGE AN EMISSIONS TESTING BUSINESS A WOMAN CAME IN WITH A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY FOR A SMOG CHECK. DURING THE ASM TEST, WHERE I HAVE TO DRIVE THE CAR ON THE DYNAMOMETER, IT HOPS OFF THE DYNO, GOING THROUGH THE PRECAUTIONS I TAKE FOR A REAR-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE(PLACING A SHOCK IN FRONT OF THE FRONT WHEELS), AND CRASHES INTO THE WALL, DAMAGING MYSELF AND $5,000 WORTH OF EQUIPMENT. ALSO, THE CAR KEPT ON ACCELERATING INTO THE WALL, EVEN WHEN PUSHING ON THE BRAKES AS HARD I COULD SO THAT'S WHEN I SHIFTED IT INTO PARK AND ENGAGED THE HANDBRAKE. OBVIOUSLY, THIS CAR HAS SOME MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH IT. AT FIRST, I LOOKED ONLINE AND THE YEAR AND MODEL HAD NUMEROUS RECALLS ON IT, INCLUDING THE REAR SUSPENSION, AND BRAKES LOCKING UP, WHICH I BELIEVED HAD HAPPENED IN MY CASE. (HTTP://WWW.MOTORTREND.COM/CARS/2007/JEEP/LIBERTY/RECALLS/), BUT AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WASN'T ANY MAJOR RECALLS ISSUED ON IT, WHICH IS WHY IM FILING THIS COMPLAINT AFTER SMOGGING HUNDREDS OF CARS, THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME UNTIL THAT DAY. *TR

THIS COMPLAINT IN REGARDS TO THE BLOWER MOTOR. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THE BLOWER MOTOR ON MY JEEP BECAUSE THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I'VE HAD A PROBLEM WITH IT. THE FIRST TIME WAS TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AFTER MY PURCHASE IN 2014. BUT IT HAS GONE OUT AGAIN. THIS TIME THE BLOWER MOTOR HAD GOTTEN SO HOT THAT IT MELTED THE WIRE CASING OF THE WIRES. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE. THE COMPANY SAID THAT SINCE IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY IT'S NOT THERE PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT SOMEONE SHOULD LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM WITH THE BLOWER MOTORS. I HAD ALSO CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON TRAILER HITCH. WHILE I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH THEM I ASKED ABOUT THE BLOWER MOTOR. THEY SAID THAT THERE WASN'T A RECALL ON IT. BUT THE PERSON I SPOKE TO HAD SAID HE HAS THE SAME VEHICLE AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO HIM AND THAT HE HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL BLOWER MOTOR AND CHRYSLER SHOULD TAKE IT SERIOUSLY BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED OR KILLED BECAUSE IT STARTS A FIRE. I WAS JUST LUCKY ENOUGH THAT MINE DIDN'T CATCH FIRE. *TR

Summary

JEEP HAS BEEN EXCEEDINGLY SLOW TO FOLLOW THROUGH ON THE MANDATED RECALL OF MY VEHICLE--I WAITED WELL OVER A YEAR FOR THE FIRST NOTICE, ANOTHER 6 MONTHS FOR THE NOTICE TO CONTACT MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER TO HAVE A HITCH INSTALLED TO PREVENT EXPLOSION DURING REAR-END COLLISION,OR HAVE MY AFTER-MARKET HITCH INSPECTED FOR MEETING THIS REQUIREMENT.I TRIED FOR 2 MONTHS TO GET AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE RECALL BUT WAS DELAYED REPEATEDLY.I ONLY GOT THE RECALL INSPECTION PERFORMED DURING THE COURSE OF HAVING OTHER PAID REPAIR WORK DONE.MY AFTER MARKET HITCH PASSED INSPECTION,SO NO OEM HITCH WAS INSTALLED. I MAILED IN THE ORIGINAL RECEIPT FOR THE AFTER-MARKET HITCH TO JEEP AS INSTRUCTED ON THE RECALL POSTCARD FOR REIMBURSEMENT BUT RECEIVED A PHONE CALL TODAY STATING THAT JEEP WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME FOR THE AFTERMARKET HITCH BECAUSE IT IS NOT AN OEM PART. I THEN REQUESTED TO HAVE AN OEM HITCH PUT ON IN PLACE OF THE ONE I PREVIOUSLY HAD INSTALLED BUT THEY REFUSE. THIS RECALL PROCESS HAS BEEN MISHANDLED BY JEEP ALL AROUND, START TO FINISH, AND NEEDS TO BE BETTER MONITORED BY NTSB OR OTHER APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATION RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPELLING AUTOMAKERS' COMPLIANCE WITH RECALLS. IF I HAD KNOWN JEEP WOULD APPROVE MY AFTER MARKET HITCH FOR RECALL PURPOSES BUT NOT REIMBURSE ME, I WOULD HAVE REMOVED MY AFTERMARKET HITCH TO SELL AND REQUIRED JEEP TO INSTALL AN OEM HITCH AT THEIR EXPENSE. IT MAKES NO SENSE TO SAY THAT JEEP'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE RECALL IS MET BY THE HITCH I PAID TO INSTALL, BUT THEN REFUSE TO REIMBURSE ME, WHEN I COULD HAVE REQUIRED THEM TO INSTALL AN OEM HITCH AT THEIR EXPENSE HAD I REMOVED MY HITCH PRIOR TO INSPECTION. JEEP/CHRYSLER IS GETTING AWAY WITH SOMETHING THEY SHOULD NOT. IF A HITCH SATISFIES RECALL REQUIREMENTS AND WAS PAID FOR BY THE CAR OWNER, THEN IT SHOULD QUALIFY FOR REIMBURSEMENT. DEEPLY WRONG FOR CONSUMERS. *TR

Summary

MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY WAS PARKED OVER NIGHT AND WHEN I STARTED TO DRIVE AWAY I FELT THE CAR RESISTING. AFTER AN INSPECTION I REALIZED THAT MY FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS TIPPED INWARD .HAD A WRECKER TAKE IT TO MY AUTO DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE UPPER CONTROL ARMS. HAD TO REPLACE THESE AND HAVE AN ALIGNMENT. I ONLY HAVE 52658 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. I AM THE ONLY OWNER AND HAVE MAINTAINED IT VERY WELL. I DO NOT DO OFF ROAD DRIVING . THE ONLY THING IS THAT IT IS EXPOSED TO A LOT OF SALT. I FEEL THE RECALL ON THE REAR SUSPENSION #91164 SHOULD ALSO COVER THE FRONT. HAD I BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.I HAVE REPORTED THIS INCIDENT TO DAIMLER CHRYSLER. *TR

Summary

I OWN A STOCK 2007 JEEP LIBERTY WITH THE 3.7L V6 AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. WHILE DRIVING HOME THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY ON A BUSY FIVE LANE 50 MPH ROAD. AS I COASTED INTO A DRIVEWAY I SAW HEAVY DARK BLACK SMOKE POURING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. AS I OPENED THE HOOD THERE WAS 5-6 INCH FLAMES ON MOST OF THE STOCK WIRING UNDER THE HOOD. THE POSITIVE CABLE THAT RUNS UNDER THE ENGINE RUBBED UNDER THE ENGINE UNTIL IT SHORTED ON THE GROUNDED ENGINE BLOCK SHORTING OUT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SHOWED UP AND PUT OUT THE FIRE AND CUT THE NEGATIVE CABLE TO STOP THE OUTBREAK OF ANOTHER FIRE. ALL OF THE CABLES ARE NOW MELTED AND BURNED TOGETHER. THE REPAIR ESTIMATE IS CLOSE TO $5000 WITHOUT FIXING WHAT ACTUALLY CAUSED THE PROBLEM, JUST FIXING THE MELTED WIRES. THE FIRE WAS STARTED BY STOCK WIRES ON A STOCK VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PARKWAY BEFORE WE BOUGHT IT AND WENT THROUGH COMPLETELY "FIXING ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING THAT WAS WRONG OR BAD WITH THE VEHICLE." THEY CLEARLY MISSED THIS MAJOR PROBLEM THAT COULD HAVE KILLED TWO TEENAGERS. I HAVE ALREADY CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY TOLD ME THIS WAS NOT THEIR FAULT. I BELIEVE IT IS, AND I WANT TO FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE IT DOES KILL SOMEONE. I AM OPEN TO PHONE CALLS, I AM OPEN TO EMAILS ANYONE YOU WANT TO CONTACT ME WOULD BE PERFECT. I CAN MEET YOU AT THE DEALERSHIP OR ANYWHERE YOU PLEASE. I WILL TRAVEL, TELL ME WHAT ACTIONS NEED TO BE DONE AND THEY WILL BE DONE. THERE IS A LOT MORE OF INFORMATION THAT CAN BE OBTAINED AND WILL BE AVAILABLE ON DEMAND. *TR

Summary

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS JEEP WROTE THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A TRAILER HITCH TO ENHANCE SAFETY FROM REAR END COLLISIONS, TO PREVENT THE GAS TANK FROM BLOWING UP. WHEN I TOOL THE LIBERTY IN FOR THE RECALL, ALL THEY PUT ON WAS THE HOLDER FOR THE BALL HITCH. THEY DID NOT PUT ON THE TRAILER HITCH ITSELF. THEY PROVIDED A POORLY COPIED LETTER WHICH INCLUDED THIS PARAGRAPH: "DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TOW WITH THE CAMPAIGN-INSTALLED TRAILER HITCH ASSEMBLY. YOUR VEHICLE WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A CHRYSLER OEM TRAILER TOW PACKAGE AND THIS CAMPAIGN-HITCH ASSEMBLY DOES NOT INCLUDE THE NECESSARY WIRING HARNESSES AND/OR OTHER HEAVY DUTY COMPONENTS FOR TOWING." I BELIEVE THIS IS A SLAP IN THE FACE BY CHRYSLER TO ITS CUSTOMERS AND THE NHTSB, SAYING, "YOU CAN MAKE ME DO X, AND WE WILL AGREE, BUT THEN WE WON'T DO X, WE'LL DO X MINUS A AND B". IF IT ISN'T STRONG ENOUGH FOR A SIMPLE TOW, HOW IS IT GOING TO PROTECT ME IN A COLLISION? AND HOW IS PROMISING A TRAILER HITCH, BUT INSTALLING ONLY THE WEAKEST PART OF A TRAILER HITCH, COMPLY WITH THEIR EARLIER WRITTEN PROMISES? I HAVE VOICED THESE CONCERNS TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND TO THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE MANAGING THE RECALL, AND THEY HAVE BEEN DISMISSIVE OF MY QUESTIONS...UPDATED 11/17/14 *BF *TR *JS

Summary

WINDOW MOTOR/LIFT HAS BROKEN ON 3 WINDOWS OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS: DRIVER, PASSENGER AND THE MOST RECENT (YESTERDAY) IS THE REAR DRIVER. TWO DIFFERENT REPAIR PLACES HAVE ADVISED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP LIBERTY, AND THE PART WAS A DESIGN FLAW. THE LAST ONE REPLACED WAS JUST UNDER $400. THE QUOTE I RECEIVED TO FIX THE DRIVER REAR WAS $494. MORE IMPORTANT IS THE FACT THAT REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PART ISN'T A FIX, SIMPLY A DELAY UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN AS THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE ALL DEFECTIVE AS WELL. ASKING THAT CHRYSLER FIND A TRUE SOLUTION AND IF NOT REPLACE/RECALL THE PART, AT LEAST OFFER A SUBSTANTIAL REIMBURSEMENT IN A TIMELY FASHION. THANK YOU *TR

Summary

I JUST WENT INTO THE DEALER FOR RECALL N46. (INSTALL TRAILER HITCH DUE TO POSSIBLE GAS TANK FIRE) IN THE RECALL LETTER CHRYSLER CALLS IT AN OEM TRAILER HITCH. AFTER THE WORK IS DONE I TRY TO FIND OUT THE RATING CLASS OF THE HITCH, BUT NO ONE KNOWS. I CALL CHRYSLER RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER AND I AM TOLD THAT IT IS A FRAME REINFORCEMENT AND NOT A TRAILER HITCH. IT CAN NOT BE USED FOR TOWING ANYTHING. ALTHOUGH IT HAS THE LOOK OF A TRAILER HITCH. BECAUSE IT IS BEING CALLED A TRAILER HITCH AND IT LOOKS LIKE ONE I AM CONCERNED FOR THE FOLLOWING: *NEITHER CHRYSLER NOR THE DEALER ARE INFORMING THE CUSTOMER, WHAT ABOUT THE CUSTOMER THAT JUST RUNS OUT AND BUYS A TONGUE AND BALL AND STARTS USING IT TO TOW? *RECALL STATES THAT IF YOU HAVE A NON OEM HITCH IT WILL BE INSPECTED AND IF IT HAS PUNCTURES OR SHARP EDGES IT WILL BE REPLACED WITH THE NEW OEM HITCH. NOW YOU HAVE A PERSON WHO HAD A FUNCTIONAL TRAILER HITCH FOR YEARS AND REPLACING IT WITH A NON FUNCTIONING "TRAILER HITCH" AND NOT TELLING THEM. IF I HAD A WORKING TRAILER HITCH FOR YEARS THAT I USE REGULARLY AND YOU REPLACED IT WITH A NON FUNCTIONING ONE I WOULD BE REALLY TICKED OFF. BECAUSE OF THE EXAMPLES LISTED ABOVE (AND THERE ARE OTHERS) I BELIEVE THIS RECALL COULD CAUSE MORE PROBLEMS, DAMAGES,ETC THAN THE PROBLEM WITH THE GAS TANKS TO BEGIN WITH. *THEY NEED TO STOP CALLING IT A TRAILER HITCH. *EVERY CUSTOMER HAVING TO HAVE THIS DONE NEEDS TO BE INFORMED THAT IT IS NOT A REAL TRAILER HITCH AND THEY CAN NOT TOW WITH IT. *THE CHRYSLER RECALL NOTICE ALSO STATES "CHRYSLER RECOMMENDS YOU REMOVE THE BALL AND BALL MOUNT WHENEVER YOUR VEHICLE IS NOT ACTUALLY IN USE OF TOWING". THAT IS ALSO MISLEADING (GIVING IMPRESSION THAT IT IS A TRAILER HITCH) AND WHY IS IT EVEN IN THERE AT ALL. *TR

CHRYSLER INSTALLED A TOW HITCH A PART OF RECALL N46, BUT ARE ADVISING OWNERS THAT THE TOW HITCH DOES NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT STRENGTH FOR ANY TOWING. IF IT IS NOT STURDY ENOUGH FOR TOWING, HOW CAN IT BE STURDY ENOUGH TO PROTECT THE GAS TANK? IS IT NOW A PROJECTILE TO PUNCTURE THE TANK? IS CHRYSLER INSTALLING SUB-STANDARD HITCHES, WHICH FUTURE OWNERS MAY USE? CHRYSLER WHEN CONTACTED INDICATED A WARNING STICKER NOT TO TOW IS INCLUDED, HOWEVER, THE STICKER READS "CHRYSLER RECOMMENDS YOU REMOVE THE BALL & BALL MOUNT WHENEVER YOUR VEHICLE IS NOT ACTUALLY IN USE OF TOWING" ALSO NO WIRING IS INSTALLED WITH HITCH WHICH MAY LEAD SOME TO TOW WITHOUT PROPER LIGHTS.

ALL 4 OF MY WINDOWS HAVE FALLEN IN TO THE DOOR. EACH HAPPENED AT A DIFFERENT TIME. TWO WHILE I WAS DRIVING 75MPH DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND COULD NOT PULL OVER. THE COST TO REPAIR THE DEFECTIVE WINDOW MOTOR IS $450 EACH! APPARENTLY THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND YEAR. I HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE. I HAVE TEMPORARILY HELD THE WINDOWS UP WITH ZIP TIES. I AM VERY WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS. NONE OF MY WINDOWS ROLL DOWN NOW! I HAVE BEEN IN A ROLL OVER ACCIDENT (IN A DIFFERENT VEHICLE) WHERE IT WAS NECESSARY FOR ME AND THE PASSENGER TO CRAWL OUT OF THE WINDOW TO EXIT THE CAR. THERE WOULD BE NO WAY FOR ME TO ESCAPE IF MY DOORS WERE DAMAGED. WHAT IS JEEP DOING ABOUT THIS OBVIOUS DEFECT? *TR

Summary

PASSENGER WINDOW FELL INTO DOOR WHEN PASSENGER EXITED VEHICLE AND CLOSED DOOR. CAR WAS NOT TURNED ON AT THE TIME. CAR IS AT JEEP DEALERSHIP IN BATAVIA, OH FOR REPAIR. THIS IS THE 7TH TIME I HAVE HAD A WINDOW REGULATOR/ LIFT PLATE FAIL. SEVENTH!! CHRYSLER ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY IN 2010 FOR SELECT MODELS OF JEEP LIBERTY VEHICLES THAT EXPIRED IN MARCH 2014. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER. MY WINDOW ISSUES HAVE NOT BEEN RESOLVED! I AM EXHAUSTED FROM NOT ONLY FIGHTING WITH CHRYSLER ABOUT THESE DEFECTIVE PARTS, BUT ALSO FROM THE INCONVENIENCE OF HAVING THESE WINDOWS FAIL. I HAVE DRIVEN FOR HOURS IN THE RAIN WITH A WINDOW OPEN AND I HAVE DRIVEN FOR HOURS AT SUBZERO TEMPS ON AN EXPRESSWAY IN A BLIZZARD WITH A WINDOW OPEN. AND I HAVE HAD TO DRIVE AROUND WITH PLASTIC TAPED TO MY WINDOW (LOOKS HORRENDOUS) AND RISK HAVING PERSONAL AFFECTS STOLEN DUE TO MY INABILITY TO SECURE MY VEHICLE. I EXPECT TIRES AND BRAKES TO WEAR AND HOSE AND BELTS TO FAIL OVER TIME. I DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR A VEHICLE THAT HAS FAULTY WINDOWS!! THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ISSUED AND ALL THESE WINDOWS FIXED CORRECTLY INSTEAD OF MAKING OWNERS SPEND THOUSANDS IN REPAIR BILLS FIXING THE SAME [XXX] WINDOWS OVER AND OVER WITH MORE DEFECTIVE PARTS. *TR INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

Summary

WHILE DRIVING TO MY DAUGHTER'S SCHOOL ON 08/08, I HEARD A LOUD POP WHILE TURNING ONTO A MAJOR SECONDARY ROAD. THE FRONT END ON PASSENGER SIDE DROPPED ON THE TIRE AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE (THE STEERING WHEEL GOT SHAKY AND WOBBLY) AND I WAS FIGHTING TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHICH ALMOST COST ME TO FLIP OVER. I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP IN THE MEDIUM. IN ACCESSING THE DAMAGE, MY FRONT TIRE IS PARTIALLY FLAT, MY FRONT END BUMPER IS LAYING HEAVILY ON THE WHEEL ON THE RIGHT SIDE WHICH IS CAUSING THE TRUCK TO LEAN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MY HOME WHERE THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER ASSESS THE BALL JOINT ON THE RIGHT SIDE HAD DISMANTLED. I'M AWARE THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS YEAR BUT FROM THE PREVIOUS YEARS, THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM EXPERIENCED BY OTHER JEEP DRIVERS. I IMPLORE YOU TO INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I ALMOST LOST MY LIFE ON YESTERDAY AND COULD HAD POSSIBLY HURT OTHERS IN THE PROCESS. I QUITE SURE CHRYSLER INC HAS BEEN RECEIVING COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS BUT HAS FAILED TO HELP CONSUMERS. BECAUSE OF THIS, I'M WITHOUT A VEHICLE AND HAVE TO FIND OTHER MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS BEFORE SOME ONE LOSES HIS OR HER LIFE BEHIND THIS DEFECT. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY - POWER WINDOW REGULATOR FAILURE: JUNE 3 - 2014 - THE RIGHT FRONT POWER WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED AND BECAME INOPERABLE. ON JULY 10, 2014, THE RIGHT REAR POWER WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED, AND THE WINDOW ROLLED DOWN ON ITS OWN WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THE WINDOW BECAME INOPERABLE AND COULD NOT BE ROLLED BACK UP. IN THE SERVICE TECH'S REPORT, THE WINDOW REGULATOR "CAME APART." CHRYSLER-JEEP HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THIS PART TO SEVEN YEARS FROM SERVICE DATE THROUGH MARCH 7, 2014 OR ONE MILLION MILES, WHICHEVER CAME FIRST. THEREFORE THEY REFUSE TO COVER THE REPAIR COST UNDER WARRANTY. I AM SENDING THIS REPORT BECAUSE I BELIEVE THESE TWO INCIDENTS HAVE IDENTIFIED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE. BECAUSE THE FAILURE CAUSES THE WINDOW TO ROLL DOWN ON ITS OWN AND BECOME INOPERABLE, IF IT DOES SO AT HIGHWAY SPEED OR IN INCLEMENT CONDITIONS THIS COULD PRESENT A SAFETY HAZARD. ALSO THE FACT THAT TWO DIFFERENT WINDOW REGULATORS ON THE SAME VEHICLE FAILED IN CONSECUTIVE MONTHS ROUGHLY ONE MONTH APART INDICATES TO ME THAT THERE MAY BE A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WITH THIS PART, AND ALL SUCH PARTS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. *JS

THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE (N46 / NHTSA 13V-252) SINCE AT LEAST JUNE OF 2013 WITH CHRYSLER AGREEING TO INSTALL A NEW PART TO CORRECT / PROTECT AGAINST THE PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT NO CORRECTIVE PART IS YET AVAILABLE AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE. WITHIN THE LAST 2 MONTHS I DID FINALLY RECEIVE A STANDARD LETTER FROM CHRYSLER NOTIFYING ME OF THIS "IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL" SAYING THEY WERE MAKING "ALL REASONABLE EFFORTS TO OBTAIN THE (CORRECTIVE) PARTS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE." THEY GAVE NO DATE AS TO WHEN THEY WOULD BE AVAILABLE. AGAIN ON 6/23/2014 I TOOK MY JEEP IN FOR SERVICE AND REQUESTED THEY MAKE THE PROMISED CORRECTION. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THEY COULD NOT, THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART, AND HAD NO IDEA WHEN THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO CORRECT MY VEHICLES PROBLEM. I FIND THIS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR NOW, AT LEAST, SINCE THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED AND MY VEHICLE STILL HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND CHRYSLER CANNOT EVEN TELL ME WHEN THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE THE REPAIR. *TR

MY JEEP LIBERTY HAS A SAFETY RECALL (N46/NHTSA 13V-252) RELATIVE TO THE FUEL TANK LEAKING. A NUMBER OF MONTHS AGO, I VISITED MY LOCAL DEALER, IN ORDER TO FIND OUT WHEN THE REPAIRS WOULD BE MADE.

TODAY I CALLED THE CHRYSLER RECALL CENTER, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO MAKE THE FIX. ISN'T THERE A TIME LIMIT FOR MAKING DEFECT REPAIRS? MY JEEP IS ALREADY 7 YEARS OLD. IF CHRYSLER WAITS ANOTHER 7 YEARS, I' M SURE THEY WILL NEED FEW IF ANY PARTS TO MAKE REPAIRS. I WANT MY JEEP REPAIRED, BEFORE IT GETS REAR ENDED, AND CATCHES FIRE WITH ME IN IT!!!!! *TR

Summary

I PURCHASED VEHICLE AUG 2008 WITH 7500 MILES ON IT. FROM THAT TIME TO CURRENT DATE, FUEL SPILLS OUT WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK FULL. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE, THE FIRST OF 3 OCCURRENCES OF THE REAR WINDOWS FALLING HAPPENED. THE DEALERSHIP REPAIRED THE FIRST ONE, THE SECOND ONE I HAD TO PAY $100 DEDUCTIBLE TO HAVE MY EXTENDED WARRANTY COVER THE COST TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP. NOW THE FIRST ONE IS BROKE AGAIN, COSTING ME ANOTHER $100 DEDUCTIBLE. IN ADDITION, IN THE PAST WEEK I HAVE SPENT OVER $600 TO REPLACE THE IGNITION SWITCH (VEHICLE WOULD ONLY START USING MY REMOTE START) AND PROBLEMS WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I HAD THE SPARK PLUGS AND COILS CHANGED, INJECTORS CLEANED, COMPRESSION CHECKED, INTAKE AND CARBON CLEANER RUN THROUGH ENGINE, AND COMPLETE OIL CHANGE. THIS DOESN'T INCLUDE THE $600 I SPENT TODAY FOR NEW TIRES ALSO SPENT $140 FOR A NEW BATTERY LAST YEAR. THE WINDOW SEAL STRIPS ON BOTH FRONT WINDOWS CONTINUE TO FALL OFF.. IT'S NOT OVER YET - VEHICLE IS IN THE SHOP NOW FOR THE ENGINE LIGHT. WHO KNOWS HOW MUCH IT WILL COST ME. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR NEGLIGENCE IN PUTTING VEHICLES LIKE THIS ON THE MARKET. I HOPE A SERIOUS INJURY OR FATALITY DOESN'T HAVE TO HAPPEN TO GET THEIR ATTENTION. I HAVEN'T EVEN ADDRESSED THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE I RECENTLY RECEIVED. VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 58,000 MILES ON IT. *TT

Summary

FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS, MY JEEP OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION. AS SOON AS THE TANK IS FULL, AND THE GAS NOZZLE CLICKS OFF, A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF GASOLINE COMES GUSHING OUT OF THE TANK. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH, AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM AMONG MANY CHRYSLER VEHICLE OWNERS. THIS IS NOT ONLY A SAFETY HAZARD, BUT CAUSES DAMAGE TO THE EXTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE, AND ISN'T GOOD ON THE ENVIRONMENT. I AM REALLY SURPRISED THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL OR TSB ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS IT IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. I HAVE TRIED SLOWING DOWN THE FLOW RATE ONCE I FEEL THE TANK IS NEARLY FULL, BUT THIS ONLY PREVENTS THE OVERFLOW A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THE TIME. *TR

UNLESS THE TRAILER HITCH IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT, IT APPEARS IT SHOULD NOT TAKE OVER A YEAR TO GET THIS SAFETY ISSUE FIXED.

Summary

THE ABS CONTROL MODULE ALERTS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ABS SYSTEM RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING. WE WERE TOLD THERE IS A RECALL F50, NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #06V49300, REGARDING THIS FROM OUR LOCAL MECHANIC. WE HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED ON 07/30/2012 AT A AUTHORIZED JEEP SERVICE CENTER DEALERSHIP REGARDING THIS PROBLEM, MODULE AND ASSOCIATED WIRING WERE REPLACED AT OUR COST. THIS DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. WE DIDN'T RESOLVE THE ISSUE ANY FURTHER UNTIL NOW, SINCE WE WERE NOT SATISFIED WITH OUR EXPERIENCE AT THIS SERVICE CENTER DEALERSHIP. TODAY WE CONTACTED ANOTHER LOCAL AUTHORIZED JEEP SERVICE CENTER DEALERSHIP AND THE DAIMLER CHRYSLER RECALL CENTER REGARDING THE N46 RECALL [GASOLINE STORAGE TANK ASSEMBLY/HITCH] AND THE PREVIOUS F50 RECALL. BOTH SAID THE F50 RECALL IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH FOR OUR VIN. HOWEVER, AFTER DOING SOME FURTHER INVESTIGATION ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE IT SEEMS THE F50 RECALL IS ASSIGNED TO 2007 JEEP LIBERTY 2WD ONLY. THEREFORE, IT APPEARS THAT THIS MAY BE THE REASON OUR VEHICLE IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE IS RECALL AND WE MUST NOW PAY OUT OF POCKET AGAIN TO FIX THIS MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. WE HAVE SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH AN AUTHORIZED JEEP SERVICE CENTER DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO REPROGRAM THE ABS ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT PER THE REMEDY ASSIGNED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #06V49300 AT OUR OWN EXPENSE. THE PURPOSE OF THIS COMPLAINT IS TO NOTIFY YOU THAT THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO ON THE 2007 JEEP LIBERTY 4X4WD AND IF YOU COULD PLEASE CORRECT/ADD 4X4WD VIN NUMBERS TO THIS RECURRING PROBLEM SO THAT POSSIBLY WE MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR REIMBURSEMENT FROM CHRYSLER.

Summary

IN 2010 I PURCHASED A USED 2007 JEEP LIBERTY FROM A DEALERSHIP. WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH OF THE PURCHASE THE MECHANISM INSIDE THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR BROKE CAUSING THE WINDOW TO DROP INTO THE DOOR RENDERING IT UNUSABLE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPAIRED THE MECHANISM FOR FREE. IN 2012 THE SAME MECHANISM IN THE SAME DOOR BROKE AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE BUT WAS FORCED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR MYSELF AS JEEP HAS NOT YET RECALLED THE MECHANISM. YESTERDAY, DECEMBER 21, 2013 THE MECHANISM BROKE AGAIN THIS TIME IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN BUT HAVE NOT YET SCHEDULED A TIME TO FIX THE UNIT. I DO NOT FEEL AS IF I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR AS IT IS AN ON-GOING ISSUE AND OBVIOUSLY A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. *TR

I HAD TO DRIVE 3 HOURS WITH THE BACK DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW DOWN. I HAD THIS WINDOW REPAIRED FOR THE SAME THING 2 YEARS AGO AND NOW AGAIN. JUST THIS YEAR IN APRIL I HAD TO SPEND MONEY TO FIX THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEMS. AND EACH TIME IT WAS THE REGULATOR AND ONLY ONCE DID JEEP REFUND ME MY MONEY. THE OTHER PROBLEMS IS THE GAS. WHEN THE JEEP IS FULL IT DOESN'T CUT OFF, THE GAS SPILLS ALL DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR REGARDLESS. *TR

Summary

I BOUGHT THE JEEP FROM A FRIEND LAST FALL AND THIS PROBLEM DIDN'T EXIST UNTIL ABOUT 4 MONTHS AFTER I HAD IT. I ALWAYS FILL MY TANK WHEN I STOP FOR FUEL AND THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, WHILE THE TANK WAS FILLING, I WASHED THE WINDOWS. WHEN IT WAS ALMOST FULL (I COULD TELL BY THE AMOUNT ON THE PUMP), I GRABBED THE NOZZLE AND GOT READY TO SQUEEZE THE LAST BIT IN BY HAND AFTER IT SHUT OFF. WELL, IT DIDN'T SHUT OFF AND GAS CAME POURING OUT, ALL OVER THE VEHICLE, SPLASHING MY CLOTHES AND SHOES! I THOUGHT IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE PUMP, SO I BROUGHT IT TO THE ATTENDANTS ATTENTION & WASHED THE SIDE OF THE JEEP OFF. NEXT TIME I WENT TO A DIFFERENT STATION & THE SAME THING HAPPENED, SO I DIDN'T 'SET' THE PUMP HANDLE ANYMORE....I HELD IT MYSELF AND PUT MY EAR CLOSE SO I COULD HEAR WHEN IT WAS ALMOST FULL. MOST OF THE TIME IT WORKED, BUT IT STILL CAME SPEWING OUT OTHER TIMES. THE OTHER NIGHT WHILE HAVING DINNER WITH FRIENDS, ONE OF THE GALS THAT WORKS AT DMV, WHO ALSO HAS A LIBERTY, TOLD ME ABOUT THE RECALLS ON MY MODEL JEEP. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND HE PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT THE ONE HAD ALREADY BEEN TAKEN CARE OF THE MONTH BEFORE I PICKED IT UP AND THE GAS TANK ISSUE DIDN'T APPLY TO MY MODEL! ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? I JUST FINISHED TELLING HIM THAT IT SPEWS GAS OUT EVERY TIME I FILL UP IF I'M NOT EXTREMELY CAREFUL WITH HOW FULL IT GETS! I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MUCH MONEY I'VE LOST FROM THIS ISSUE 'THAT DOESN'T APPLY TO MY MODEL'!!! NOT TO MENTION THE DAMAGE I'M SURE IT'S DOING TO THE FINISH (EVEN THOUGH I TRY TO GET IT ALL OFF)! NOT A HAPPY CAMPER AND DON'T KNOW THAT I'LL EVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP IF THIS IS THE WAY THEY HANDLE DANGEROUS ISSUES! *TR

I BOUGHT MY LIBERTY WHEN IT WAS A YEAR OLD FROM A DEALER. ONE MONTH LATER, THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR. IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, THE DEALER FIXED IT WITH NEW PARTS. A YEAR AGO IN JUNE 2012 THE REAR WINDOW DROPPED INTO THE DOOR. THE REAR WINDOWS ARE NEVER EVEN USED. I HAD TO PAY A MECHANIC TO RAISE IT UP AND HOLD IT UP WITH DUCK TAPE BECAUSE THE REGULATOR AND REPAIR IS GOING TO COST OVER $400.00!!THE WINDOW WOULD SLOWLY START TO DROP BEFORE IT FINALLY WENT INTO THE DOOR COMPLETELY WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND THE NOISE FROM THE OUTSIDE WAS SO LOUD I THOUGHT I WAS HAVING A FLAT TIRE AND HAD TO PULL OVER. NOT TO MENTION THE CONSTANT ATTENTION I HAD TO PAY TO MAKE SURE THE WINDOW WAS STILL BEING HELD UP WITH THE AWFUL LOOKING DUCT TAPE! SO ANGRY AND DISAPPOINTED WITH CHRYSLER. I READ ONLINE OF SO MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. I COULD NEVER RISK PUTTING A CHILD BACK THERE BECAUSE OF THIS RISKY PROBLEM.

Summary

SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED THE CAR USED FROM A DEALERSHIP, THERE HAVE BEEN TWO RECURRENT PROBLEMS WITH IT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS AND INDEPENDENT MECHANICS, AND NONE CAN FIX THESE TWO ISSUES: 1.) WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK AT THE GAS STATION, THE GAS DOESN'T "SHUT OFF" WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED. THE GAS SPILLS OUT OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR ALMOST EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK - IT DOES NOT MATTER THE GAS STATION. I WAS TOLD TO DEAL WITH IT. 2.) MY DRIVER SIDE FRONT WINDOW DOES NOT WORK - IT NEVER HAS. I CAN ROLL IT DOWN, BUT WHEN I TRY TO HAVE IT CLOSE IT COMES OUT OF TRACK AND GETS STUCK. I HAVE EVEN HAD IT IN UNDER WARRANTY TO DEALERSHIPS TWICE OR THREE TIMES (IN ADDITION TO TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS' REVIEWS) IN WHICH I WAS EVEN REIMBURSED FOR A FIX - THAT NEVER WORKED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY ALL OF THESE MECHANICS THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. PLEASE NOTE I AM ESTIMATING WHEN THIS STARTED, AS I CANNOT SEEM TO REMEMBER THE DATE OF PURCHASE - IT IS AROUND THE YEAR 2009. I DID BUY THE CAR USED, AND IT IS A 2007. I BOUGHT IT WITH APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES. IF NEEDED I CAN FIND PAPERWORK FOR THE EXACT DATE OF PURCHASE. *TR

Summary

THIS IS A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE FUEL ISSUE THAT I HAVE SEEN ON HERE ALREADY.WHEN I GO TO PUT FUEL INTO THE GAS TANK, IT WILL NOT STOP AT THE END AS IT'S FILLING UP. IT JUST OVERFLOWS. I WOULD SAY AT LEAST A FEW CUPS OF FUEL FLOWS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND DOWN INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE AND WHEEL WELL. I KNOW THAT AT SOME POINT IT WILL LEAD TO RUST/CORROSION AMONG MANY OTHER ISSUES. I REALLY WISH THIS COULD BE LOOKED AT AND POSSIBLY FIXED BY MANUFACTURER. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE THAT THERE ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, WITH NO HELP FROM THE MANUFACTURER. I ALSO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS AS OTHERS WITH THE WINDOWS. THE REGULATOR HAS A PIECE THAT BREAKS AND THEN THE WHOLE REGULATOR HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES ALREADY ON DIFFERENT WINDOWS. LASTLY, I JUST RECENTLY HAD AN ISSUE WHERE THE JEEP WOULDN'T START. THE CONSOLE LIGHTS AND GUAGES WORK FINE AND IT ACTED LIKE ALL WAS WELL, BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T TURN OVER WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED. THE RESULT WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH ACTUATOR PIN. IT HAS A PIECE THAT BREAKS OFF AND WHEN THAT HAPPENS, THE JEEP WONT BE ABLE START. IT ISN'T AN EASY FIX FOR SOMEONE WHO ISN'T MECHANICALLY CAPABLE. AGAIN, THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT HAS HAPPENED TO MANY PEOPLE AND HONESTLY THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I COULD COMPLAIN ABOUT MORE, BUT LET'S JUST LEAVE IT AT THAT. *TR

MANY PEOPLE HAVE SPENT ALOT OF MONEY TO KEEP THE WINDOWS WORKING PROPERLY. I SPENT OVER $700 JUST TO KEEP MY DRIVER DOOR WINDOW PROPER AND THIS IS FOR MANY FIXES. I DID NOT BUY THE CAR AT A JEEP DEALERSHIP, SO WHEN I GO IN THERE, THEY ARE NOT REAL INTERESTED IN HELPING ME. PLEASE MAKE THIS ISSUE A RECALL AND HELP PEOPLE TO GET THEIR WINDOWS TO WORK PROPERLY.

Summary

I OWN A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT, WITH NO WARRANTY. A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE REAR, DRIVER SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR AND MOTOR WENT BAD AND I HAD TO REPLACE THIS OUT OF POCKET. WHAT IS MORE FRUSTRATING IS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY DRIVER FRONT WIDOW NOW. SINCE MY LAST REPAIR, LARRY H. MILLER JEEP IN SANDY UTAH HAS INFLATED THE PRICE OF THE PART. THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF THE NEED OF THIS FAULTY PART AND ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CUSTOMERS. I NOW HAVE NO WINDOW (IT IS CRACKED INSIDE MY DOOR AND I AM NOT IN FINANCIAL POSITION TO REPLACE IT). IT IS APPROXIMATELY 30 DEGREES IN MY STATE RIGHT NOW, THIS IS ALMOST UNBEARABLE. I HAVE ALSO OWNED A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY PRIOR TO THIS AND THE REAR DRIVER WINDOW REGULATOR AND MOTOR ALSO WENT OUT. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THIS AT MY COST. THIS MAKES THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME PART! I AM ASKING FOR A RECALL AND FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THIS AT NO ADDITIONAL COST TO ME. I FEEL IT IS ALREADY UNFAIR THAT THEY PROVIDE A BAD PART, BUT EVEN WORSE THAT THEY INFLATED THE PRICE PART RECENTLY AND ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CONSUMERS. THIS IS ALSO UNSAFE, I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH A GARBAGE BAG TO MY WINDOW WHICH BLOCKS MY LINE OF SIGHT, BUT IS THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP DRY IN THIS FALL/WINTER WEATHER. PLEASE HELP ME, I AM AT A LOSS RIGHT NOW AND THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. THE DEALERSHIP'S NUMBER FOR WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IS: (866) 653 3505. THANK YOU AGAIN. THANK YOU *TR

Summary

I PURCHASED A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED EDITION 4X4 ON MAY 26, 2012 FROM LOCAL DEALERSHIP. ON SEPTEMBER 16, 2012, I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND REAR PASSENGER WINDOW HAD SLID HALF WAY DOWN THROUGH THE NIGHT. DISCOVERED FROM INTERNET RESEARCH THAT PLASTIC PARTS ARE FAULTY AND KNOWN BY CHRYSLER FOR YEARS. YET NO RECALL MADE TO CORRECT THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM. REPLACING WITH SAME PLASTIC PARTS IS NO SOLUTION. MY CONCERN IS SAFETY AND SECURITY. WHY HAVE AN ALARM SYSTEM WHEN ANY OR ALL FOUR WINDOWS ARE PRONE TO FAILURE? STEEL REPLACEMENT PARTS CAN BE PURCHASED ONLINE INDEPENDENTLY, BUT AS A CONSUMER I FEEL CHRYSLER SHOULD BE OBLIGATED TO CORRECT THIS AT NO COST. THIS REQUIRES IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. WHY WAIT FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF A CHILD FALLING OUT OF A MOVING VEHICLE. THERE IS NO WARNING. *TR

Summary

ON OUR 2007 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT GASOLINE SPEWS OUT EVERYTIME WE FILL IT IF WE DO NOT SLOW THE FILLING UP WHEN WE THINK THE TANK MAY BECOMING NEAR FULL. SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU DO IT SPEWS OUT GASOLINE ONTO THE CAR AND THE PERSON FILLING IT. WE NEVER PUT IT ON AUTO TURN OFF WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK BECAUSE IT WILL SPEW OUT. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GAS STATION IN SEVERAL STATES. THIS DANGEROUS TO THE PERSON FILLING THE TANK, TO THOSE AT THE GAS STATION, AND TO THE ENVIRONMENT. A SAFETY RECALL BY CHRYSLER JEEP OUGHT TO BE PUT IN MOTION SINCE MANY OTHERS HAVE POSTED THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

Summary

I BACKED MY JEEP LIBERTY SPORT INTO A TURN AROUND AREA, NEEDED TO PUT IT IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE. I PUT IT IN 4 WHEEL HI, THEN PULLED FORWARD. ONCE I WAS OUT OF THE TURN AROUND AREA I PUT IT BACK IN 2 WHEEL DRIVE. AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING VERY SLUGGISH. I STOPPED TO MAKE SURE NOTHING WAS STUCK IN THE TIRES OR IN THE WHEEL WELLS. I CONTINUED DRIVING AND IT DID NOT WANT TO GO ABOVE 40 MILES AN HOUR. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES I HEARD A RATHER LOUD POPPING SOUND, FOLLOWED BY WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A CHAIN BEING DRAGGED UNDER THE VEHICLE. I STOPPED TO LOOK UNDER IT BUT DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING, SO I SLOWLY MADE MY WAY TOWARDS HOME. AFTER ANOTHER FEW MINUTES IT WAS BASICALLY UNDRIVABLE, SO I STOPPED AT A FRIENDS HOUSE AND GOT A RIDE HOME. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE MECHANICS THEY TOLD ME THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT HAD BROKEN IN HALF. I GOT THAT REPAIRED JUST TO BE TOLD THAT THE REAR PINION IS SHOT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN FINE UP TILL THAT POINT, AND I HAD USED 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON OTHER OCCASIONS. NOW FOR SOME REASON AFTER USING IT THIS TIME I HAD A $600 BILL TO REPLACE THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT AND WHAT I AM BEING TOLD IS AT LEAST ANOTHER $600 TO $900 BILL FOR THE REAR PINION. ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH THIS? *TR

Summary

WHEN REFUELING OUR 2007 JEEP LIBERTY, FUEL OVERFLOWS AFTER FUEL PUMP AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF IS TRIGGERED. THIS OVERFLOW NOW OCCURS EVERY TIME VEHICLE IS REFUELED. NO ONE IS ATTEMPTING TO "TOP OFF" THE FUEL TANK. THE OVERFLOW CAUSES A QUANTITY OF FUEL, WHICH I ESTIMATE AT TWO TO FOUR CUPS, TO SPILL ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS FUEL OVERFLOW FLAW CREATES AN EXTREME FIRE HAZARD AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION RISK. THIS FLAW OCCURS IN THE WRANGLER MODEL OF CHRYSLER JEEP PRODUCTS ALSO, WHERE A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. THE SAME FLAW IS OCCURRING IN MANY THOUSANDS OF JEEP LIBERTY'S AS IS EVIDENT BY THE HUGE VOLUME OF OWNER STATEMENTS POSTED ON MANY WEBSITES. THIS WAS AN OCCASIONAL PROBLEM THAT HAS NOW BECOME CONSISTENT. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PREDICT AND WITHOUT A RECALL NOTICE, CONSUMERS ARE UNAWARE OF THIS HAZARD. THIS FLAW CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD FOR THE PERSON REFUELING THE VEHICLE AND ANYONE NEARBY (SPECIFICALLY MY CHILDREN WHO ARE OFTEN WITH ME WHEN FUELING OUR JEEP). THE FUEL SPILLED HAS CAUSED PROPERTY DAMAGE IN THE FORM OF RUINED CLOTHING AND SHOES, AND POSSIBLY DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AS FUEL RUNS DOWN THE SIDE INTO CREVICES AROUND THE REAR WHEEL AND AXLE. WHY WOULD THE MANUFACTURER COVER THIS FLAW UNDER WARRANTY FOR ONE MAKE AND MODEL, THE JEEP WRANGLER, AND NOT COVER THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM FOR ANOTHER MAKE AND MODEL, THE JEEP LIBERTY? IT'S THE SAME PROBLEM CREATED BY THE SAME MANUFACTURER. *TR

Summary

BEGINNING AT APPROXIMATELY 35,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE, FUEL WOULD SPIT-BACK IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FUEL NOZZLE SHUT OFF. THE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPIT BACK WAS SIGNIFICANT, DRENCHING THE LOWER HALF OF THE PERSON FUELING THE VEHICLE. AT FIRST, WE THOUGHT THIS MIGHT BE AN ISSUE WITH THE FUELING PUMP, BUT FOUND IT REPEATED ITSELF AT EVERY PUMP AND AT EVERY STATION WE UTILIZED. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO DEPEND ON RATE OF FUELING, AS EVEN ATTEMPTING TO FUEL SLOWLY RESULTS IN A DANGEROUS SPIT BACK OF FUEL AND POTENTIAL DRENCHING OF THE INDIVIDUAL. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THE DEALER AND A DEFECTIVE VALVE IN THE FUEL TANK WAS DIAGNOSED AS THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. INTERESTINGLY, AFTER REPORTING THE LABOR CHARGE OF $200 TO INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE, WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY HAVE SEEN A NUMBER OF JEEPS WITH THIS PROBLEM. ONE WOULD THINK COMMON PROBLEMS COULD BE FOUND WITHOUT THIS LEVEL OF LABOR. THE VALVE IN QUESTION CANNOT BE OBTAINED AS AN INDIVIDUAL UNIT AND THE ENTIRE FUEL TANK MUST BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF APPROXIMATELY $900. GIVEN THAT NUMEROUS OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES OF THIS YEAR, INCLUDING WRANGLER, DODGE DURANGO, LIBERTY, AND OTHER MODELS ACROSS THE CHRYSLER, DODGE, AND JEEP BRAND EXHIBIT THIS PROBLEM AND THAT LACKING SIGNIFICANT MOVING PARTS, ONE CANNOT JUSTIFY A FUEL TANK COMPONENT FAILURE AFTER 35,000 MILES, THIS ISSUE IS UNQUESTIONABLE A DESIGN FAILURE. GIVEN THE IMMEDIATE HAZARD OF FIRE, LONG TERM HEALTH RISKS, AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF REPEATED EVENTS OF FUEL SPIT BACK FROM THESE VEHICLES REQUIRES INTERVENTION. *TR

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ON DECEMBER 1 2011 AND ABOUT A MONTH OR A LITTLE MORE LATER (IN JANUARY) THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW STARTED MESSING UP (WHEN YOU ROLLED IT UP IT STARTED GOING UP CROOKED AND YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR HAND A STRAIGHTENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE ROLLING IT UP ALL THE WAY. ALSO, THE SWITCHES THAT ARE IN THE MIDDLE AREA BETWEEN THE SEATS, THE ONE FOR THE BACK DRIVER'S SIDE PASSENGER SIDE, QUIT WORKING ALL TOGETHER. TOWARD THE END OF FEBRUARY OR THE BEGINNING OF MARCH WE WERE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD ( GRANDSON WAS IN THE BACK LUCKILY ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE IN HIS CAR SEAT) AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE BACK PASSENGER WINDOW STARTED MALFUNCTIONING (WHEN YOU WENT TO ROLL IT UP THE MOTOR THAT ROLLS IT UP STARTED MAKING NOISE) AND THE WINDOW DROPPED AND SOMEHOW JAMMED THE DOOR COMPLETELY SHUT AND WE CANNOT OPEN IT. TODAY WHILE WE WERE OUT WE NOTICED THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW IS STARTING TO ACT UP. THAT'S THREE OUT OF 4 MESSING UP OR MESSED UP AND ONE HAS CAUSED US NOT TO BE ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR AT ALL. WE CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE ALL THIS FIXED ON OUR OWN AND IT IS NOT THAT OLD OF A VEHICLE AND THE MILEAGE IS NOT REALLY THAT HIGH AND IT IS STILL IN GOOD SHAPE OTHERWISE AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ FROM SOME OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS FILED ON HERE FOR THE 2007 JEEP LIBERTY THIS SEEMS TO BE A REPEATING ISSUE.

Summary

LEFT REAR WINDOW HAS FAILED 3 TIMES (9/5/08, 6/17/10, 10/16/11) AND ALL THREE TIMES THE REGULATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE RIGHT REAR WINDOW HAS FAILED ONCE (8/29/09) AND THE REGULATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. ALL 4 TIMES, THE CAR WAS PARKED AND I FOUND THE WINDOW DOWN AND WAS UNABLE TO GET IT BACK UP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE BACK AND USE THE WINDOW LOCK SO THEY ARE UNABLE TO OPEN THE WINDOW. HAVING AN UNRELIABLE WINDOW THAT CAN FALL DOWN AT ANY TIME IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR ANYONE WITH PASSENGERS IN THE BACK. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO CHRYSLER AND THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THE WINDOW LIFT PLATE BUT NOT THE REGULATOR. THERE IS A NEED FOR A PERMANENT FIX FOR THIS. I AM TIRED OF MY REGULAR TRIPS TO THE DEALER TO GET THIS FIXED. CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET THIS FIXED. *TR

WHILE WE WERE ON VACATION, WE WERE RIDING AROUND IN OUR CAR WITH THE WINDOWS PARTIALLY DOWN. WHILE WE WERE RIDING, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW FELL COMPLETELY INTO THE DOOR PANEL. WE STOPPED & WERE ABLE TO BORROW TOOLS TO GET THE WINDOW BACK UP. WE STUFFED THE WINDOWS WITH CARDBOARD TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. WHEN WE CAME HOME, MY BOYFRIEND OPENED THE DOOR PANEL AND PLACED A BLOCK OF WOOD IN IT BECAUSE THE WINDOWS KEPT FALLING DOWN! SOME TIME LATER, THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW DID THE SAME THING! IT TOO WOULD NOT STAY UP, SO HE INSTALLED A BLOCK OF WOOD IN THAT DOOR PANEL AS WELL. WE RESEARCHED REPLACEMENT PARTS (USED) AND HAVE BEEN TOLD OVER & OVER THAT THEY SIMPLY ARE NOT AVAILABLE. WHEN WE PRICED NEW PARTS, THEY ARE OUTRAGEOUS. THE CHEAP PLASTIC PIECES THAT HOLD THE WINDOW IN PLACE & LOCKED ARE OVER $100. I FIND THAT RIDICULOUS. WE HAVE FOUND THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND JEEP STILL HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. WE SIMPLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND. *TR

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL - LOOSE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, ROUGH IDLE AND SLOW POWER (JERKY STARTS WHEN OCCURS DURING CASUAL DRIVING). THIS HAS OCCURRED WHILE ON THE FREEWAY AND CAUSAL DRIVING ON THE CITY STREETS. WHEN THIS OCCURS ON THE FREEWAY, RPM'S GO ABOVE 3000 WHEN ONLY GOING 60...CAR SPUTTERS AND FEELS LIKE IT COULD JUST STOP, ENGINE RUNS HIGH AND IF YOU ACCELERATE, IT IS SLOW TO CATCH AND STARTS JERKING. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES EVEN AFTER BEING SEEN BY THE DEALER 6 TIMES AND SUPPOSEDLY "FIXED". I FEAR THAT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE OF THE JERKY ACCELERATION AND SLOW RESPONSE TO ACCELERATION IT IS POSSIBLE OTHER VEHICLES COULD BE FOLLOWING TOO CLOSE AND REAR END MY VEHICLE. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT. THROUGHOUT THE THREE YEARS I'VE OWNED THIS VEHICLE I HAVE HAD REPEATED PROBLEMS WITH THE POWER WINDOWS, INCLUDING WINDOWS THAT STOP WORKING OR JUST FALL INTO THE DOOR WITHOUT EVEN USING THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH. I HAVE AN EXTENDED LIFETIME WARRANTY AND HAVE HAD TO PAY $100 DEDUCTIBLE EVERYTIME I'VE TAKEN IT IN FOR THESE REPAIRS. THE CLAIM TO HAVE REPLACED THE FRONT WINDOWS AS THEY NOW HAVE A DIFFERENT "CONNECTOR" FOR THE POWER WINDOW UNIT. THE DRIVERS WINDOW GOES DOWN NORMALLY, BUT IS VERY SLOW TO COME UP AND SOMETIMES STOPS. I HAVE TO MANUALLY 'HELP' IT UP. THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW HAS WORKED FINE SINCE THE SAME REPAIR. THE REAR WINDOWS HAVE BOTH BEEN REPAIRED HOWEVER THE DRIVERSIDE PASSENGER WINDOW HAS NOW STARTED TO FALL ON ITS OWN. IT HAS NOT BEEN USED SINCE IT WAS LAST REPAIRED EXCEPT THE DAY OF THE REPAIR WHEN I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE IT WAS GOOD TO GO. I'VE LEARNED THAT THE PARTS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED ARE PLASTIC AND BREAK DOWN REGULARLY AND NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH METAL ONES. THESE PLASTIC PARTS ARE EASILY BROKEN AND THUS MAKE IT EASY TO BREAK INTO THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE USE OF A STEEL HOOK AND PRESSURE. JEEP NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY ADDRESS THIS. OF ALL THE VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS HAD A WINDOW ISSUE AND IT KEEPS HAPPENING! THIS HAS COST ME HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS AND THERE IS NO RELIEF IN SIGHT. HELP!!! *TR

Summary

JEEP LIBERTY WINDOW REGULATOR FAIL. THIS IS A REPEAT OCCURRENCE, ALL 4 WINDOWS WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AT 29,000 MILES AFTER 26 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP UNDER TSB 2300809 AT A COST TO CHRYSLER OF $1,332.40. NOW THE LATEST WINDOW FAIL HAPPENED DURING NON-USE, WHILE I WAS INSIDE MY WORK BUILDING. THIS WINDOW IS BARELY USED; I HARDLY CARRY PASSENGERS. IT HAS BEEN 23,000 MILES AND 17 MONTHS SINCE THE ENTIRELY NEW UNIT WAS PUT IN. * * I CAME OUT OF WORK, AND THE WINDOW HAD SLID DOWN INTO THE DOOR SOMETIME DURING THE DAY. ADDITIONALLY, I WAS UNABLE TO CLOSE THE DOOR AFTER I USED A PLASTIC BAG TO COVER THE WINDOW DUE TO THE WIRE CABLE BLOCKING THE DOOR LATCH * * THIS CAN LEAD TO INCREASED THEFT, DAMAGE FROM THE WEATHER, AS WELL AS TO PASSENGERS (SPECIFICALLY A BABY) IN THE BACKSEAT DURING FAIL. NO OPERATING WINDOWS AND DOORS STUCK OPEN ARE SAFETY CONCERNS. * * THE DEALER IS REFUSING TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT, JUST UNDER $400, EVEN AFTER STATING I WOULD CONTACT CHRYSLER, THE BBB AND LOCAL NEWS. THERE ARE COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF THESE CASES ONLINE, HEAVILY TARGETING THE 2007 LIBERTY AS WELL AS SOME EARLIER MODELS. THE LEVEL OF WIDESPREAD FAILURES AND AMOUNT OF TIME THIS HAS GONE ON WITHOUT A RECALL IS DISTURBING TO SAY THE LEAST. CURRENTLY THERE IS ALSO TSB 2303807 ABOUT THE ISSUE. I LOVE JEEPS, AND WE HAVE BOUGHT A CHEROKEE, WRANGLER, AND 2 LIBERTY'S. THIS LACK OF DOING THE RIGHT THING AND REPEATED FAILURE MAKES US LOOK TO A MORE RELIABLE (FOREIGN MADE) VEHICLE AS THE NEXT CHOICE. * * *IN SUMMARY, THE WINDOW REGULATOR STARTS TO FAIL, WINDOWS START TO SLIDE OFF TRACK OR JUST DROP INTO THE DOOR. WINDOWS ARE LEFT OPEN AND DOORS CANNOT BE SHUT. THIS DEMANDS A RECALL. *TR

Summary

REAR WINDOW OF JEEP 2007 LIBERTY COMES DOWN ON ITS OWN (EVERY TIME WE DRIVE THE CAR AND EVEN WHEN IT IS IN PARK). THE PROBLEM WAS REPAIRED AT A JEEP DEALER ONCE WHILE UNDER 3 YEAR/36,000 MILE WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AGAIN (SAME WINDOW) ONLY 1.5 YEARS AFTER THE FIX, YET THE DEALER SAYS IT'S NO LONGER UNDERWARRANTY. CLEARLY THIS IS A DEFECT WITH THE CAR AND THE ORIGINAL FIX SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE PERMANENT THAN 1.5 YEARS. IT HAPPENED DURING A HEAVY DOWNPOUR/RAIN STORM AND RESULTED DAMAGE TO ITEMS IN THE BACK SEAT. WE HAVE AN 11 MONTH OLD IN A CAR SEAT IN THE BACK AND CAN NO LONGER RIDE IN INCLEMENT WEATHER WITH THE BABY IN THE BACKSEAT UNTIL WE GET IT FIXED AGAIN. MY FEAR IS THIS WILL SIMPLY CONTINUE TO HAPPEN SINCE WE ALREADY TRIED TO HAVE THIS FIXED BY A 5 STAR CHRYSLER/JEEP DEALER. *TR

I OWN A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY AND HAVE A CONSISTENT PROBLEM WITH GAS PUMPS NOT SHUTTING OFF AT ANY OF THE STATIONS WHERE I HAVE PURCHASED GAS. THIS ISSUE STARTED A FEW MONTHS AGO AND AT FIRST I JUST ASSUMED IT WAS RELATED TO A PARTICULAR PUMP, BUT HAVE FOUND THAT IT OVERFLOWS NO MATTER WHERE I PURCHASE GAS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS DANGER AND CERTAINLY AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE ESPECIALLY WHEN SUCH EFFORTS ARE MADE TO EVEN CONTROL VAPOR EMISSIONS ON MODERN VEHICLES. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER BUT THEY SAID THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND THIS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE, BUT AM MORE ANXIOUS ABOUT THE SAFETY ISSUE THIS CAUSES. IT'S BAD ENOUGH TO RUIN CLOTHING, BUT I HATE TO THINK ABOUT OTHER WORSE SCENARIOS SUCH AS A FIRE OR HAVING GAS SPRAYED IN SOMEONE'S FACE. I BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD BE COVERED AS PART OF AN EMISSIONS AND CUSTOMER SAFETY RELATED SERVICE CAMPAIGN, BUT CHRYSLER DISAGREES WITH ME. *TR

I OWN A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. IN APRIL 2010, I HAD TO HAVE THE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR, MOTOR AND GLASS (NOTHING WRONG WITH THE GLASS) FOR THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND REAR REPLACED. OF COURSE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. I WAS TOLD THAT THE REGULATOR FAILED BUT I HAD TO HAVE ALL REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THAT THE DESIGN FOR THE 2007 REGULATOR WAS CHANGED AND THAT IS WHY I HAD TO HAVE ALL REPLACED AT A COST OF $425.00 EACH. NOW THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW JUST DROPPED DOWN INTO THE DOOR WITHOUT WARNING (AUG 25,2010). I ASSUME THAT I WILL HAVE TO HAVE THE REGULATOR, MOTOR AND GLASS (AGAIN NOTHING WRONG WITH THE GLASS) REPLACED AT ANOTHER $425.00. I AM JUST WAITING FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE GLASS TO FALL INTO THE DOOR AND HAVE TO REPLACE THAT ALSO. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. SOME HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE REGULATORS REPLACED THREE OR FOUR TIMES. YET THERE IS NO RECALL. THIS IS A DISGRACE. IT IS TOTALLY UNFAIR FOR THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES TO HAVE TO CONTINUE TO SHELL OUT THIS KIND OF MONEY OVER AND OVER AGAIN WHEN THERE IS CLEARLY A DESIGN FLAW.

WINDOWS HAVE FAILED IN A RAIN STORM ON DRIVER'S SIDE AND WAS DIFFICULT TO SEE TO DRIVE SAFELY.

REAR WINDOW FELL DOWN AND DOES NOT STAY UP, USED A DEVICE TO KEEP FROM FALLING DOWN, 1 WEEK LATER THE OTHER ONE FELL DOWN. TOOK TO REPAIR SHOP AND WAS TOLD THE REGULATOR WAS BAD ON BOTH WINDOWS AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH THE WINDOW ALSO. THE REASON FOR THIS IS BECAUSE THE REGULATORS WERE REDESIGNED AND IT WILL COST OVER $800 TO REPAIR AND WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. NO OLD PARTS ARE AVAILABLE HAVE TO PUT IN NEW PARTS. THE CONSEQUENCES OF NOT REPAIRING ARE THE WINDOW CAN COME DOWN AND SOMEONE CAN GET IN YOUR CAR, THE OTHER SOLUTION IS TO HAVE IT FIXED SO IT CANNOT FALL DOWN UNTIL YOU GET THE MONEY TO REPLACE IT. *TR

I PURCHASED A JEEP LIBERTY IN 2007, WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE I HAD TO GO TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THE WINDOWS FIXED BECAUSE THEY WOULD FALL DOWN THE DOOR AND OFF THE TRACK. THIS HAS NOW OCCURRED EVERY 3 MONTHS BUT ALL DIFFERENT WINDOWS IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE ASKED BEFORE WHY THEY KEEP NEEDING TO BE REPLACED AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE MOTOR FOR THE WINDOWS IS A CHEAP PLASTIC PART THAT DOESN'T HOLD UP WELL. IT HAS COME TO THE POINT WHERE I NOW HAVE TO KEEP PIECES OD WOOD IN MY GLOVE COMPARTMENT SO IF THE WINDOW FALLS DOWN I CAN STICK THE WOOD IN THE WINDOW AND HOLD THE WINDOW UP. *TR

WINDOW REGULATORS ARE NO GOOD WE HAVE 70,000 MILES ON OUR 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. WE ALREADY HAD ONE REPLACED AND NOW THE BACK WINDOWS FAIL DOWN AND NO WAY TO GET THEM UP. WE WENT TODAY AND GOT THEM FIXED NEW REGULATORS AND NEW WINDOWS AT A COST OF $527.00. YOU CANT GET THE OLD REGULATORS BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THEM .YOU HAVE TO BUY THE NEW ONES AND THE NEW WINDOWS TO FIT THEM. THERE HAS BEEN LOTS OF COMPLAINTS AND I THINK IT SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THEM.THEY ARE A PIECE OF JUNK.WE HARDLY EVER USED OUR BACK WINDOWS CAUSE IF YOU LET THEM DOWN GOING DOWN THE ROAD THE VIBRATION IS NOT BEARABLE. WE WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER JEEP EVER. WE ALSO WAS SITTING IN THE CAR ONE DAY AND THE BACK PASSENGER WINDOW EXPLODED,WE CALLED THE POLICE CAUSE WE THOUGHT WE HAD BEEN SHOT AT BUT WE FOUND OUT IT WAS PRESSURE FROM THE WINDOW REGULATOR LUCKY OUR INSURANCE PAID FOR THAT CAUSE THE DEALER WOULD NOT. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY TWO-WHEELED DRIVE. LEFT REAR ELECTRIC WINDOW HAD TO BE REPLACED WHEN WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED ON MAY 20, 2010, WITH ONLY 29,794 MILES ON THE CAR. WINDOW WENT DOWN INTO LEFT REAR DOOR, BEHIND DRIVER, AND BECAME TOTALLY INOPERABLE. DEALER-SHAVER AUTOMOTIVE GROUP IN THOUSAND OAKS, CA, CHANGED REGULATOR AND GLASS AND CHARGED US AN EXORBITANT $482.60. DID NOT EVEN HONOR DISCOUNT COUPON FOR $50 OFF OF SERVICE. POINT IS, THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN DEFECT BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS, AND CHRYSLER SHOULD PAY FOR IT. IN ADDITION THE REPLACEMENT REGULATORS SHOULD BE DIFFERENT OR BE REDESIGNED TO BE MORE ROBUST, BECAUSE IT MAKES NO SENSE TO REPLACE WITH THE SAME REGULATORS THAT MIGHT EVENTUALLY FAIL AGAIN, AS SEEMS TO BE THE CASE WITH OTHER COMPLAINANTS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE FAILURES WITH THE SAME OR DIFFERENT WINDOWS. *TR

WE BOUGHT OUR 2007 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED IN NOVEMBER 2007, IN THE FIRST 6 MONTHS WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE WINDOWS FIXED 3 TIMES AS THEY KEPT FALLING OFF THE TRACKS. FIRST IT WAS THE PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW, SECOND WAS THE DRIVERS WINDOW, AND THE THIRD TIME WAS BOTH REAR WINDOWS. ON ALL 3 OCCASIONS WE TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICING OF THE WINDOWS, THE WINDOW MOTORS WERE REPLACED AND THE TRACKS WERE EITHER CLEANED OR REPLACED. I NOTIFIED JEEP OF THE TROUBLES I WAS HAVING WITH THE WINDOWS REGARDLESS OF THE REPAIRS ALREADY DONE AND WAS ADVISED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON SUCH ISSUES AS IT DID NOT IMPOSE A SAFETY THREAT. ON ONE SUCH INCIDENT WHEN ONE OF THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOWS FELL OFF IT'S TRACK, MY 3 MONTH OLD SON WAS SITTING IN HIS CAR SEAT NEXT TO THE WINDOW, NORMALLY THIS MAY NOT HAVE IMPOSED ANY SAFETY THREAT TO HIM EXCEPT THAT WE HAPPENED TO BE TRAVELING AT A TIME WHEN THERE WAS A HUGE EXTREMELY WINDY MONSOON STORM IN PROCESS...I BEG TO DIFFER THAT THIS DID NOT IMPOSE A POSSIBLY EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SAFETY SITUATION FOR MY 3 MONTH OLD BABY AS HE WAS PELTED BY HEAVY RAIN AND WIND UNTIL I COULD REACH A DESTINATION TO GET HIM TO SAFETY. JEEP NEEDS TO TAKE OWNERSHIP AND ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THEIR POOR WORKMANSHIP AND DESIGN OF THE WINDOW STRUCTURES IN JEEP LIBERTY AND ANY OTHER JEEP VEHICLES THAT HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE! *TR

I THINK WHEN I AM HAVING TO LOOK AROUND AND SEE WHERE NOISES ARE COMING FROM AND HAVING TO MONITOR MY SON NON STOP SO HE DOESN'T PUT HIS HAND OUT THE WINDOW, I AM DEFINITELY NOT FOCUSED ON MY DRIVING. THIS IS A FAIRLY NEW CAR, NO WARRANTY, BUT THE PROBLEM STARTED UNDER WARRANTY, AND CONTINUES.

THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW DOES NOT GO UP OR DOWN ANY LONGER. THOUGHT IT WAS JUST SIMPLY THE WINDOW BEING OFF THE TRACK. AFTER BRINGING IT IN TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WAS TOLD IT IS THE WINDOW REGULATOR THAT IS THE PROBLEM. AFTER DOING SOME SIMPLE ONLINE SEARCHES THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM IT APPEARS WITH 2006 OR LATER JEEP LIBERTY'S. THERE ARE THOUSANDS THAT HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE, AND THE PART IS EXPENSIVE. IT ALSO IS VERY UNSAFE AS IF YOU LEAVE A PET IN THE CAR, AND THE WINDOW JUST GOES DOWN BY ITSELF, THAT CAN BE A MAJOR PROBLEM. A EVEN BIGGER PROBLEM CAN BE IF YOU HAVE A CHILD IN THE CAR, AND THE WINDOW JUST GOES DOWN. PLUS OBVIOUSLY IF IT RAINS/ SNOWS, OR THEFT WITH WINDOW BEING OPENED. CHRYSLER WAS MADE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM NUMEROUS TIMES, AND THEY DO NOT ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX. NOW I HAVE TO SPEND 300.00 DOLLARS OUT OF POCKET TO HAVE FIXED, WHEN THERE IS A OBVIOUS DEFECT. IM ACTUALLY LUCKY FROM WHAT I READ AS IT IS ONLY MY FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, AND IN MOST CASES IT HAPPENS MANY MORE TIMES OVER THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE ON OUR 2007 JEEP LIBERTY AND NOW THE WINDOW WILL NOT STAY UP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE OPEN WINDOW ALLOWS FOR INCLEMENT WEATHER TO ENTER THE VEHICLE THUS DISTRACTING THE DRIVER FROM THE FOCUS OF DRIVING. THIS ALSO PRESENTS VANDALISM AND THEFT ISSUES. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS $300+ TO REPLACE NOT JUST THE PART BUT THE ENTIRE WINDOW ASSEMBLY INCLUDING GLASS, TO SAY NOTHING OF THE LABOR COSTS. I HAVE READ IN SEVERAL PLACES OF HUNDREDS OF OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS AND HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OF THIS COMPONENT. *TR

07 JEEP LIBERTY REAR DRIVER'S SIDE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED. WINDOW HAS FALLEN INTO THE DOOR. PLASTIC COMPONENTS HAVE A HIGH RATE OF FAILURE. RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET REVEALS THAT THIS FAILURE HAPPENS OFTEN ON THIS VEHICLE. LOSS OF THE WINDOW CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL DANGER IN CASE OF ACCIDENT OR INCLEMENT WEATHER. PERSONAL SAFETY IS ALSO COMPROMISED WHEN YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO KEEP THE WINDOWS UP. LOSS OF CONTENTS OF THE VEHICLE IS POSSIBLE IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN WHILE THE LIBERTY IS LEFT UNATTENDED. MY "FIX" WAS TO WIRE THE WINDOW SHUT. AFTERMARKET PARTS ARE AVAILBLE ON EBAY AND OTHER INTERNET STORES. JEEP'S FIX IS TO REPLACE THE WINDOW AND THE REGULATOR WITH PARTS FROM THE PREVIOUS MODEL LIBERTY'S PARTS BIN(A BETTER MADE DESIGN). JEEP NEEDS TO RECALL THIS AND MAKE THE REPAIR AT THEIR EXPENSE. *CN

THE WINDOW REGULATORS ON ALL FOUR WINDOWS KEEP FAILING AND CAUSE THE CABLE TO EXIT OUT OF THE LOCKING MECHANISM. THIS IN TURN GIVES THE DOOR THE APPEARANCE OF BEING CLOSED. THE DOOR CAN SWING OPEN AND CAUSE THE PASSENGER TO FLY OUT. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPEN MY CHILD WAS IN THE BACK SEAT WITH THE PROPER RESTRAINTS BUT JUST SEEING THE DOOR OPEN SCARED THE YOU KNOW WHAT OUT OF ME. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME I WAS STILL COVERED SO THEY CHANGED THE REGULATOR ON ALL FOUR WINDOWS AND SAID ALL WAS FINE. A YEAR LATER THE SAME WINDOW DID THE SAME THING SO AGAIN I WENT TO THE DEALER BUT THIS TIME THE STORY WAS DIFFERENT. NOT ONLY WAS MY REGULATOR BAD BUT MY WINDOW ALSO HAD TO BE REPLACED. I WAS GIVEN A TOTAL OF ABOUT $500.00 TO REPAIR THE WINDOW AGAIN AND I ASKED WHY I HAD TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS REPAIRED ONE YEAR BEFORE. THEY SAID THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS ISSUE HAD HAPPEN AND UNFORTUNATELY THEIR WAS NO RECALL. I SAID IT WAS NOT RIGHT TO HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS BY ALL STANDARDS SHOULD BE A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RECALL.WHY DO WE WAIT FOR A ACCIDENT OR EVEN WORSE DEATH TO HAPPEN BEFORE SOME THING IS DONE. THE JOB WAS DONE AND I WAS SURPRISED WHEN I WAS ONLY CHARGED $100. I WOULD HAVE PAID ANY PRICE FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. PLEASE DON'T WAIT FOR A TRAGEDY TO HAPPEN BEFORE A RECALL IS IN EFFECT.

2007 JEEP LIBERTY 4X4 PURCHASED JUNE 2009 WITH 15K MILES (PROGRAM VEHICLE). OCTOBER 2009 THE DRIVERS SIDE POWER WINDOW FAILED WHEN DOWN SELECTED. DEALERSHIP REPLACED REGULATOR UNDER MFGR WARRANTY. MARCH 2010 DAUGHTER AND BOYFRIEND WERE CRUISING AT 65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THE LEFT REAR WINDOW FAILED AND PARTIALLY FELL INTO THE DOOR. THEY MANAGED TO PULL THE WINDOW INTO THE CLOSED POSITION; BUT THEN HAD GREAT DIFFICULTY GETTING THE LEFT REAR DOOR TO LATCH SHUT. EVIDENTLY SOME COMPONENT OF THE WINDOW REGULATOR SYSTEM WAS INTERFERRING WITH THE LATCH MENCAHISM. LUCKILY THEY WERE ABLE TO GET THE DOOR CLOSED TO FINISH THE DRIVE HOME (60+ MILES). DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARDS INCLUDE STARTLED DRIVER WHEN WINDOW FALLS, DOORS THAT CAN BE JAMMED EITHER IN CLOSED OR OPEN POSITION, AND OF COURSE SECURITY. MFGR CHARGES CUSTOMER FOR KNOWN DEFECTIVE DESIGN/ENGINEERING PARTS REPLACEMENT (IE: REDESIGNED REGULATOR & GLESS). MFRG NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. PROBLEM WARRENTS A RECALL. *TR

AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS OF USE, THE POWER WINDOWS STOP WORKING AND THE WINDOW EVENTUALLY FALLS INTO THE DOOR FRAME. THIS HAPPENS EVERY 6 TO 8 MONTHS DEPENDING ON HOW MANY TIMES THE WINDOW IS PUT UP OR DOWN. THIS RESULTS IN A 700 DOLLAR REPAIR BILL, AND HAS OCCURRED ON ALL 4 WINDOWS SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE 3 YEAR WINDOW WHERE WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE. THE WINDOW REGULATORS, MOTORS, AND WINDOW ITSELF HAVE BEEN REPAIRED SEVERAL TIMES, AND THEY CONTINUE TO FAIL TO KEEP THE WINDOW UP. *TR

Summary

I HAVE HAD TWO OF THE FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS FAIL ON OUR JEEP LIBERTY, WHAT WAS PURCHASED NEW, AT THE END OF 2007. THIS FAILURE CAUSES THE WINDOW TO FALL DOWN, INTO THE DOOR AND HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A DESIGN FLAW, ENOUGH THAT JEEP HAS COMPLETELY RE-DESIGNED THE REGULATOR AND WINDOW. I HAD THE FIRST FAIL AT 36,600 MILES, LAST JUNE (JUST PASSED WARRANTY) AND THE SECOND FAILED IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR. LOOSING A WINDOW ON THE FREEWAY IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE- AND NOT TO MENTION HOW YOUR FAMILIES EARS FEEL AFTERWARDS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE DESIGN OF THIS WINDOW REGULATOR, FOUND ON CARCOMPLAINTS.COM, AND HOPE THAT IT CAN AFFORD YOUR OFFICES ATTENTION. *TR

Summary

NO PROBLEMS WERE EXPERIENCED PRIOR TO JAN 31ST, AT WHICH POINT MY REAR DRIVERSIDE TIRE BLEW OUT, THROUGH A TEAR IN THE SIDEWALL. IT APPEARED THROUGH SLASH MARKS, WHICH I FIRST I THOUGHT WAS VANDALISM. AFTER CLOSER INSPECTION OF ALL THE OTHER TIRES, I HAVE FOUND THE SAME MARKS, AND IN THE DRIVERSIDE FRONT TIRE, A GAP THAT IS ABOUT TO BLOW OUT AS WELL. WHEN I REALIZED IT WAS LIKELY A DEFECTIVE SET OF TIRES, I CALLED GOODYEAR. THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE THE CAR INTO A DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE DEALER CONFIRMED IT WAS A SET OF DEFECTIVE TIRES. THEN THEY TOLD ME BECAUSE I HAD GOOD USE UP TO THAT POINT, THAT I DON'T GET TO HAVE FULL-PRICE REPLACEMENT, BUT ONLY PARTIAL CREDIT. THE TIRES HAVE BEEN PERFECTLY MAINTAINED, AND WOULD LAST ME AT LEAST ANOTHER 3-4 YEARS BECAUSE OF MY LIGHT-DRIVING HABITS, AND I DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCE TO REPLACE ALL MY TIRES, NOR CAN I CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE CAR IN THIS CONDITION, IT IS UNSAFE! *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY WINDOW REGULATORS CONTINUALLY FAILING. MY PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR. THE DEALER REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. NOW THE DRIVERS WINDOW WONT ROLL UP NORMALLY. IT GETS CROOKED IN THE TRACK WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ROLL IT UP. I HAVE TO PULL THE WINDOW UP WITH MY HAND WHILE PRESSING THE BUTTON AT THE SAME TIME. THE PASSENGER WINDOW HAS GOTTEN SLOW TO ROLL UP AGAIN. IT CAN TAKE 30 SECONDS TO ROLL UP AND YOU CAN HERE THE STRAIN ON ITS MOTOR. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS LOAD PUT ON THE REG MOTOR WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE A FIRE SINCE IT IS PUT UNDER SUCH A TREMENDOUS STRAIN TO RAISE THE WINDOW. THE MECHANIC THAT REPLACED THE PASSENGER WINDOW REG. SAID THAT ALL JEEP LIBERTY WINDOW REGULATORS WILL FAIL DUE TO BAD DESIGN. HE REPLACES THEM ALL THE TIME (JOKINGLY HIS PARTNERS CALL HIM THE JEEP WINDOW MAN! ) HE ALSO STATED " YOU ARE LUCKY BECAUSE ALOT OF WINDOW REGS THAT FAIL CAUSE THE WINDOW TO SUDDENLY DROP OFF THE TRACK AND FALL DOWN INTO THE DOOR AND USUALLY SHATTER. A CO-WORKER OF MINE HAD THIS HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY. WINDOW WAS UP AND SUDDENLY DROPPED DOWN AND SHATTERED INSIDE THE DOOR SCARING HIM TO DEATH. THIS WIDE SPREAD COMPLAINT BY MOST JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS HAD GONE IGNORED BY JEEP AND THEY ARE PROFITING LARGELY FROM IT. WITH THE AVERAGE FIX COSTING AROUND $400 PER WINDOW AND MOST OWNERS ARE REPLACING MULTIPLE WINDOWS, REGULATORS, THIS IS ALONG THE SAME LINES AS THE CURRENT TOYOTA RECALLS GOING ON. ALL TRYING TO MAKE CHEAP PARTS AND REAP THE BENEFITS OF INCREASED PARTS SALES. I AM AFRAID TO ROLL DOWN ANY OF MY WINDOWS AND THIS COULD BE DEADLY IF A FIRE WERE TO OCCUR. CHECK ON THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS WITH THIS ISSUE AND YOU WILL FIND ENOUGH COMPLAINTS TO FORCE A RECALL. CUSTOMERS ARE SPENDING TREMENDOUS AMOUNTS OF MONEY TO REPLACE PARTS THAT JEEP JUST DOESN'T WANT TO FIX BECAUSE THE PROFIT IS TO HIGH. PLEASE HELP US!!!!!!!

MY REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW FELL DOWN A FEW MONTHS AGO, I HAD THAT REPLACED WITH THE NEW AND IMPROVED REGULATOR AND WINDOW. THEN YESTERDAY THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE FELL DOWN, THE WINDOW HAS NOT BEEN IN USE BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER FOR SOME TIME. I CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THEY GAVE ME A QUOTE OF OVER $500. IN THIS ECONOMY I DO NOT HAVE THE EXTRA MONEY TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED SO RIGHT NOW IT IS JIMMIED UP AND MY HUSBAND PUT A PIECE OF PLASTIC IN THERE SO IT DOES NOT FALL DOWN UNTIL WE HAVE THE EXTRA MONEY TO GET IT REPAIRED. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL JEEP DEALERSHIPS AND THEY HAVE ALL TOLD ME THE SAME THING, THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES SO IF THE JEEP DEALER KNOWS THIS AND CHRYSLER KNOWS THIS WHY IS THERE NOT AND EFFECTIVE RECALL ON THIS. ONE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THERE USE TO BE A RECALL ON THIS BUT SINCE HAVE DISMISSED IT. I BELIEVE THAT THE CHRYSLER FOUNDATION NEEDS TO PAY FOR THIS AND ALL REPAIRS FOR THE FAULTY WINDOW REGULATOR AND THE NEW GLASS THEY NEED TO INSTALL. WE ALREADY PAY FOR THE VEHICLE ITSELF WHY SHOULD WE THE CONSUMERS PAY FOR FAULTY MATERIAL WHEN THIS IS ONGOING? *TR

I PURCHASED A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY IN 2008. IN OCTOBER 2009, THE WINDOW REGULATOR (THE CONTROL MECHANISM THAT ALLOWS MY WINDOW TO GO UP OR DOWN) ON MY REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW BROKE. I HAD IT DIAGNOSED BY THE CAR DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM WHO WIRED THE BASE OF THE WINDOW TO THE DOOR FRAME TEMPORARILY TO PROTECT THE INTERIOR FROM THE ELEMENTS. MY WARRANTY EXPIRED BECAUSE I WAS OVER ON THE MILEAGE. I TOOK IT TO CHARLIES IN AUGUSTA, MAINE WHO STATED IT IS NOT ON RECALL, THEREFORE I WOULD BE REQUIRED TO HAVE THEM DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM FOR A FEE BEFORE THEY WOULD FIX IT. THEN THE REPAIR WOULD COST APPROXIMATELY $300. THEN IN DECEMBER, 2009 THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE. AGAIN, THE CAR DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM WIRED THE BASE OF THE WINDOW TO THE DOOR FRAME, AS IT WAS SNOWING OUTSIDE, TO PROTECT THE INTERIOR FROM THE ELEMENTS. I SPOKE WITH AN EMPLOYEE AT NEWCASTLE CHRYSLER WHO STATED THEY HAVE REDESIGNED THE REGULATOR AND WINDOW BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEM AND NOT ONLY THE REGULATOR, BUT THE GLASS WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AS WELL AT A COST OF $357. I AM TOLD I CANNOT INSPECT MY VEHICLE, BECAUSE OF THE FRONT WINDOW NOT OPERATING PROPERLY, THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I CONSIDER THE REAR WINDOW TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL. IF A CHILD WERE IN A CHILD SEAT IN THE BACK SEAT AND THE WINDOW DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY, IT COULD BECOME HAZARDOUS. THEREFORE, I AM REQUESTING THIS BE INVESTIGATED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND AM LOOKING FORWARD TO RECEIVING A REPLY. YOU CAN CONTACT ME OR BY MAIL AT SUSAN BOURGET. *TR

DRIVER'S WINDOW BEGAN TO SLIDE ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASE IN DEC. 2008. BACK PASSENGER WINDOW STUCK ABOUT 2 INCHES DOWN AND THEN SUDDENLY CAME CRASHING DOWN WHILE I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE. IT NEARLY SCARED ME TO DEATH! THE BACK WINDOW IS IN THE DOOR. WE TRY TO KEEP THE WINDOW COVERED AND ARE NOT CURRENTLY DRIVING THE VEHICLE BECAUSE WE CAN'T AFFORD THE REPAIR RIGHT NOW. OCCASIONALLY THE WIND PULLS THE PROTECTIVE COVERING OFF, AND WE HAVE RAIN STAINS ON THE SEATS AS A RESULT. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THEY NO LONGER MAKE THIS REGULATOR BECAUSE IT IS FAULTY, SO THE GLASS HAVE TO BE REPLACED ALSO WITH THE NEW REGULATOR AT A COST OF ABOUT $500 PER WINDOW. THIS IS CRAZY FOR THE CONSUMER TO HAVE TO PAY FOR A FAULTY PRODUCT. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP, BUT THEY DO NOT SEEM CONCERNED.

2007 JEEP LIBERTY - THE MANUFACTURER REDESIGNED THE WINDOW REGULATOR, KNOWING FULL WELL IT WAS FAULTY. I AM NOW BEING TOLD BY LIBERTY OWNERS & LOCAL AUTO MECHANICS THAT THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT WITH THIS JEEP. WHEN I WENT TO REORDER THE ROTARY I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD NO OTHER OPTION BUT TO ORDER THE NEWLY REDESIGNED VERSION AND THAT VERSION REQUIRED A WINDOW REPLACEMENT & A LABEL THAT INDICATED THE WINDOW & REGULATOR HAD BEEN REPLACED. THE TOTAL COST IS $423.00. I AM A SINGLE GIRL ON A TIGHT BUDGET AND I BOUGHT THIS JEEP 3 MONTHS AGO, NOT REALIZING THAT ALL OF MY REGULATORS WOULD BREAK. TO DATE, MY DRIVER REGULATOR AND MY LEFT PASSENGER SIDE REGULATOR HAVE BROKE. I'M LOOKING AT $846.00 TO FIX THIS AND I BELIEVE THIS MANUFACTURER SHOULD HAVE RECALLED THIS PART. I AM GOING TO FILE A LAW SUIT AS WELL. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO REPLACE THESE WINDOWS; SO I'VE BEEN DUCT TAPING THEM SHUT. THE DUCT TAPE ONLY LASTS FOR A WEEK, SO IN BETWEEN, I FIND MYSELF TRYING TO HOLD THE WINDOW UP WHILE I'M DRIVING, SO IT DOESN'T FALL AND SMASH INSIDE THE PANEL, UNTIL I CAN GET TO MY HOME AND PUT NEW TAPE ON IT. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT THE MANUFACTURER KNOWS THE GLASS WILL SHATTER, THAT'S WHY YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE WINDOW AND YET NO RECALL?

I HAVE HEARD OF SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT OWN JEEP LIBERTY'S AND THEY HAVE ALSO HAD WINDOW REGULATOR PROBLEMS.

MY CAR WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT AND THE NEXT MORNING, MY DRIVER SIDE FRONT WINDOW WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN EVEN THOUGH I HAD LEFT IT UP. 2 DAYS LATER, AFTER I FINISHED WORK, I WENT TO MY CAR IN THE PARKING LOT AND MY REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN AND WOULDN'T ROLL BACK UP( AGAIN, I HAD LEFT IT IN THE UP POSITION) THESE ARE POWER WINDOWS. APPARENTLY THE WINDOW REGULATORS MALFUNCTIONED AND BROKE EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE UNDER NO STRESS.( I ALMOST NEVER USE MY REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW). AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, THIS PROBLEM IS APPARENTLY PREVALENT FOR 2007 JEEP LIBERTY'S. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS MALFUNCTION IS THAT IT LEFT THE VALUABLES IN MY CAR UNSECURED AND I WAS LUCKY THAT THEY WERE STILL THERE WHEN I GOT TO MY CAR. THE MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM IS THAT IF THE WINDOWS DROP WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, IT COULD STARTLE A DRIVER AND MAKE THEM THINK THEY WERE HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE OR OBJECT CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AS IT TRULY IS RAMPANT FOR MOST JEEP LIBERTY 2007 OWNERS. THANK YOU. *TR

RIGHT REAR PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE ON ITS OWN AND HAD TO BE TAPED UP FOR 6 WEEKS WHILE A REPLACEMENT PART, THAT WAS ON BACK ORDER, FINALLY ARRIVED. FOUR MONTHS LATER THE RIGHT FRONT WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE ON ITS OWN. NO ONE WAS IN THE SUV WHEN IT LET THE WINDOW DROP OPEN. THE PART FOR THIS WINDOW TOOK ONLY FIVE DAYS TO REACH THE DEALERSHIP AND THE VERY DAY THAT IT WAS REPLACED THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WINDOW REGULATOR LET THE WINDOW DROP AND I COULD NOT GET IT TO COME BACK UP. FINALLY USED A PAIR OF NEEDLENOSE PLIERS TO GET HOLD OF IT AND THEN TAPE IT UP. OF COURSE, THE DEALERSHIP DOES NOT HAVE THIS PART IN STOCK. THIS IS SIMPLY A JOKE AND THE FACT THAT JEEP HAS NOT HAD A RECALL ON THESE WINDOW REGULATORS SHOULD BE A CRIME. THE VEHICLE IS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED THAT HAD A STICKER PRICE OF $25,000.

THIS COULD BE HAZARDOUS IF IT HAPPENED DURING A STORM OR IN OTHER SITUATIONS WHERE SAFETY DEMANDS THE WINDOW REMAIN CLOSED. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED, WE WERE JUST DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. NO ONE WAS TOUCHING THE WINDOW CONTROLS AND SUDDENLY THE WINDOW BEGAN TO DROP SLOWLY. THE TIME BEFORE, THE WINDOW DROPPED SUDDENLY AND QUICKLY. AGAIN, NO ONE WAS OPERATING THE CONTROLS AT THAT TIME. *TR

Summary

I OWN A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. IN FEB 2008 MY LEFT REAR WINDOW COLLAPSED INTO THE PANEL. AS IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY IT WAS REPAIRED, OR I THOUGHT IT WAS. IN AUG 2009 MY RIGHT REAR WINDOW COLLAPSED INTO THE PANEL, ONCE AGAIN IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS REPAIRED. IN OCT 2009 MY LEFT REAR WINDOW COLLAPSED AGAIN. NOW THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH LIBERTY'S AND BECAUSE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY NOW I WAS TOLD I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. IT IS DOCUMENTED ON SEVERAL CONSUMER ADVOCATES REPORTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEMS. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IF THERE WERE CHILDREN IN THESE VEHICLES I AM AFRAID OF POSSIBLE INJURIES. I DO NOT FEEL IT IS FAIR THAT WE THE PUBLIC SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR JEEP'S RECURRING PROBLEMS. I FEEL A TOTAL RECALL AND PROPER REPLACEMENT OF THE REGULATORS AND WINDOW ITSELF AS PRESCRIBED BY THE CHRYSLER ENGINEERS. *TR

Summary

JEEP LIBERTY, 2007 - REAR WINDOWS FALL INTO DOOR PANEL WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED. MY CHILDREN SIT IN THE BACK SEAT OF MY VEHICLE WHEN MOVING AND MY DAUGHTER HAD HER FINGERS PULLED INTO THE WINDOW POCKET. ANOTHER TIME THE WEATHER WAS COLD WITH HARD RAIN AND THE WINDOW JUST DROPPED, I'M IN TRAFFIC, I WAS DISTRACTED BY INCIDENT AND IT TOOK SEVERAL MINUTES TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY AND COVER THE OPEN WINDOW AREA WITH A BLANKET AND AGAIN THERE WERE CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT. THE DEFECTIVE REGULATOR ON THE JEEP LIBERTY AND OTHER JEEPS HAS BEEN REPORTED NUMEROUS TIMES BY CONSUMERS WHO HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE EQUIPMENT IN THE SAME VEHICLE 4 OR MORE TIMES. CHRYSLER/JEEP REFUSES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WHICH RESULTS IN THE WINDOW GLASS FALLING INTO THE DOOR, LEAVING WINDOWS OPEN WHILE CHILDREN OR ANIMALS ARE IN THE VEHICLE AND LEAVES THE VEHICLE VULNERABLE IF LOCKED AND PARKED ANYWHERE. THIS FAILURE ACCURS IN OVER 75 % OF THE JEEP VEHICLES AND ONCE THE PART IS REPLACED CAN FAIL AGAIN WITHIN A MONTH. THIS IS NOT JUST AN EXPENSIVE INCONVENIENCE IT DOES EFFECT THE SAFETY OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE VEHICLE WHEN MOVING AND WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED AND LOCKED. *TR

MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT A WINDOW IS SORT OF A SAFETY NET FROM THE OUTSIDE WORLD. WELL THIS IS THE FIFTH (5TH) TIME THAT MY WINDOW REGULATOR HAS FAILED ON ALL DOORS, AND THE CAR IS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY WITH 37K MILES ON IT. ON THREE (3) OF THE OCCASIONS, THE DOORS WERE STUCK SHUT, DUE TO SOME CABLE BEING LOOSE. I HAD TO GO TO THE DEALER AND HAVE THE DOORS TAKEN OFF AND REPAIRED, AND PUT BACK ON. AND THAT IS WHEN I BEGAN THINKING, WHAT IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT, AND THE WINDOW REGULATOR'S CABLE SNAPPED LOCKING THE DOOR. WOULD I BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR, MOST LIKELY NOT. *TR

I PURCHASED MY JEEP 2 YEARS AGO. OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS, I HAVE BEEN NOTICING I CAN HARDLY STOP WITH CAR. I BROUGHT MY JEEP TO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. MY VEHICLE AT JUST UNDER 19,000 MILES ON IT HAD TO HAVE ALL COMPLETE BRAKES AND ROTORS REPLACED INCLUDING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE PADS ON IT AND NONE OF IT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. ROTORS ARE ONLY COVERED FOR ONE YEAR OR 12,000 MILES. SO THEY ARE THINKING THE BRAKES AND ROTORS ARE ONLY SAFE FOR ONE YEAR ON BRAND NEW VEHICLES. MY ROTORS AT 19,000 MILES WERE ALMOST FALLING OUT OF MY TWO YEAR OLD VEHICLE, THEY WERE COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A HUGE ACCIDENT. THIS JUST DOESN'T SOUND RIGHT AT ALL, HOWEVER CHRYSLER WOULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT, SORRY ABOUT MY LUCK BASICALLY. IS THERE A BASIC WARRANTY THAT DEALER'S HAVE TO FOLLOW TO KEEP THE CONSUMER AND THOSE AROUND THE CONSUMER SAFE? OR IS IT THE NORM NOWADAYS TO NOT ONLY PAY FOR A BRAND NEW VEHICLE, BUT HAVE TO SPEND $1,200 A YEAR IN NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR? *TR

TWICE IT HAPPENED DURING THE NORMAL COURSE OF USING THE POWER WINDOW FEATURE TO LOWER THE WINDOW, BUT ONCE IT HAPPENED WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD. MECHANICS HAVE REPLACED THE REGULATOR ON ALL 3 OCCASIONS, STATING THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THEY'VE SEEN WITH THESE VEHICLES. MY CONCERN IS THAT WHEN TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AND HAVING THE WINDOW SUDDENLY DROP, THERE'S THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DRIVER TO BE SURPRISED BY THE MOVEMENT, AS WELL AS ITEMS FLYING INTO OR OUT OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

I COULD MANUALLY PUSH IT UP BUT IT WOULD FALL AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING. THE WINDOW MAY HAVE BEEN UP AND DOWN A DOZEN TIMES IN TOTAL BEFORE FAILING.

MY WINDOW REGULATORS IN MY 07 JEEP LIBERTY HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED 2 TIMES IN A 3 MONTHS PERIOD AND MY JEEP IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. I WAS DRIVING IN TOWN AND IT WAS RAINING. I HAD JUST LEFT A DRIVETHRU WINDOW OF A FAST FOOD PLACE AND HAD 2 FRIENDS IN THE BACK SEAT. AFTER WE LEFT THE DRIVE THROUGH AND WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY REAR WINDOW JUST FELL AFTER IT WAS ROLLED AND MY FRIEND GOT HER FOOD, AND HE WINDOW WAS UNABLE TO BE ROLLED UP. MY FRIEND WAS GETTING WET AND I WAS SO DISTRACTED BY THE WHOLE THING I ALMOST WRECKED. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. THE DEALER FIXES IT AND IT CONTINUES TO NEED YET ANOTHER REPAIR BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO EFFECTIVELY FIX THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS IN THE DESIGN OF THE WINDOW REGULATOR AND IT WILL ONLY BE A TEMPORARY FIX AND WILL BREAK YET AGAIN AND NEED ANOTHER REPAIR UNTIL A NEW BETTER DESIGN IS PROVIDED. THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND THE WINDOW REGULATORS NEED TO BE UPDATED WITH A BETTER DESIGN. A VEHICLE CAN GET STOLEN BECAUSE THE WINDOW IS MALFUCTIONING AND WON'T ROLL UP.ALL SORTS OF OTHER HORRIBLE THINGS CAN HAPPEN TOO. CHILDREN OR INFANTS CAN HAVE TOO MUCH BLOW AIR IN THEIR FACE AND SUFFOCATE BECAUSE THE WINDOW IS BROKEN. I DON'T FEEL CHRYSLER SHOULD WAIT AROUND FOR A TRAGEDY TO HAPPEN BEFORE THEY RECALL THE JEEP LIBERTY'S AND FIX THESE WINDOW PROBLEMS. *TR

THE FRONT DRIVER WINDOW GOES UP CROOKED AND HAS TO BE LET DOWN AND UP SEVERAL TIMES TO MAKE IT GO UP CORRECTLY. THE POWER WINDOWS ON MY JEEP LIBERTY MADE A POP WHEN GOING UP AND THE WINDOW FAILED TO SHUT (BACK PASSENGER); I HAD TO MANUALLY LODGE IT UP. A FEW HOURS LATER THE RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DID THE SAME THING; HOWEVER, IT ALSO MADE THE DOOR UN-OPERABLE LOCKING MY CHILD IN WHICH REQUIRED HIM TO GO OUT THE OTHER DOOR. IF THERE HAD BEEN A WRECK MY CHILD COULD HAVE BEEN TRAPPED INSIDE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM STATING THE REGULATORS AND MOTORS NEEDED REPLACING. I ASKED THEM WHAT CAUSED THE DOOR TO LOCK AND THEY SAID THE CABLE PULLEY WHICH CONTROLS THE WINDOWS WRAPPED AROUND THE LOCKING MECHANISM AND FROZE THE DOOR. WELL A FEW MONTHS HAVE PASSED AND THE WINDOWS ARE ONCE AGAIN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS TO FIX THESE ITEMS THOUGH THEY HAD PREVIOUSLY WORKED ON THEM. I HAVE RELOCATED FROM GA TO VA AND WOULD NOT HAVE THE SAME DEALER. WHEN THESE WINDOWS FALL WHILE DRIVING IT STARTLES YOU TO THE POINT OF PANIC BECAUSE THE REAR WINDOWS MAKES A FUNNY SOUND WHEN DOWN (THE WAY THE AIR CURRENT HITS THE CAR); WHICH CAN BE QUITE DISTRACTING. I HOPE YOU WILL DEAL WITH THIS PROBLEM SO IT DOESN'T CAUSE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THOSE NOT EXPECTING IT. ANOTHER PROBLEM WHEN DRIVING IF YOU HIT THE GAS IT SOUNDS LIKE THE BACK END SLIPS AND WILL NOT GO OR WILL JUST JERK AND SLIP ON THE ROADWAY. *TR

Summary

2007 JEEP LIBERTY ALL MOTORS IN THE WINDOWS ARE FAULTY. HAVE CONDUCTED RESEARCH IN ONLINE FORUMS AND HAVE CONCLUDED THAT MOST CONSUMERS OF 2001-2007 JEEP LIBERTY'S ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES WITH POWER WINDOW FAILURE. MOST ISSUES ARE FIXED DURING WARRANTY, AND CONTINUE TO OCCUR UNTIL LONG AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRES. ALSO** THE SEATS ON 2003-2007 JEEP LIBERTY'S ARE REPORTED AS BEING STAIN RESISTANT. SOMETHING WITHIN THE SEAT FABRIC CAUSES THE SEATS TO STAIN WITH A BROWNISH COLOR AFTER ANY LIQUID SUBSTANCE HITS THEM. HAVE RAN A TEST ON MY OWN VEHICLE WITH FILTERED TAP WATER AND BROWN STAIN STILL CONTINUED TO APPEAR. ADDRESSED DAIMLER CHRYSLER ABOUT ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS "BAD RAIN IN MY AREA". I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT EVERY STATE IN THIS COUNTRY HAS BAD RAIN PROBLEMS AND IN ANY CASE RAIN SHOULD NOT CAUSE A STAIN ON THE UPHOLSTERY OF A 20,000+ DOLLAR VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT A LAWSUIT SHOULD BE FILED AGAINST DAIMLER CHRYSLER DEMANDING A RECALL ON ALL SEATS AND POWER WINDOWS WITH A FIX TO THE SOLUTION OR SHOULD HAVE TO REIMBURSE EVERY SINGLE CUSTOMER ALL THE MONEY THEY HAVE SPENT OVER THE YEARS TRYING TO FIX THESE RE-OCCURRING ISSUES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP. SINCERELY, SGT NATHAN COSSEY UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS *TR

Summary

AFTER MINIMAL USE OF THE REAR WINDOWS ON MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY I HAVE HAD 3 FAILURES. I BOUGHT THE JEEP IN JANUARY 2007 AND HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTIL AUGUST 2008. AT THAT POINT I HAD THE DRIVERS REAR WINDOW REPAIRED DUE TO THE INADEQUATE WINDOW MECHANISM. IN JULY 2008 THE PASSENGER REAR WINDOW WENT DOWN FOR THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE REPAIRS WERE BEING COMPLETED WITH A HIGHER QUALITY SYSTEM SO THAT IT WOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE. IN AUGUST 2008 THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW BROKE AGAIN. AT THIS POINT I HAVE HAD TO LEAVE WORK 3 TIMES TO GET REPAIRS ON MY WINDOWS. THE DEALERSHIP THIS TIME TOLD ME THAT JEEP IS NOT PROVIDING A BETTER SOLUTION TO FIXING THE WINDOWS. WHEN I CALLED AND TOLD THEM THE ISSUE WITH THE WINDOW THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY ASKED IF IT WAS A LIBERTY. APPARENTLY THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT THEY SEE SEVERAL TIME DAILY. MY QUESTION IS WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUE FROM JEEP IF THERE IS SUCH A HIGH VOLUME IN REPAIRS. ALTHOUGH MISSING WORK EVERY FEW MONTHS TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT A HUGE INCONVENIENCE I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE SAME REPAIRS AFTER THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR

I HAD TO GET TWO WINDOW REGULATORS REPLACED IN MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE JEEP HAS 19,000 MILES ON IT WHEN THE FIRST WAS REPLACED. ANOTHER WAS DONE AT 30,000. I AM NOW AT 32,000 AND THE ONE THE WAS REPLACED AT 19,000 IS BAD AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP IS QUICK TO REPLACE THE REGULATORS, AND I'VE BEEN TOLD DIRECTLY FRONT HE DEALERSHIP THAT THESE ARE A COMMON PROBLEM. MY WARRANTY RUNS OUT IN 3,000 MILES AND THEN IT WILL COST ME 79 FOR THE PART, PLUS THE LABOR OF HAVING IT INSTALLED EVERYTIME ONE GOES BAD. THE JEEP BRAND SHOULD BE LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE INSTEAD OF SIMPLY REPLACING THEM WHEN THEY GO BAD. TYPICALLY WHEN THEY STOP WORKING, THE WINDOW WILL EITHER FALL, OR GET STUCK DOWN. IT IS AN INCONVENIENCE TO KEEP HAVING TO RETURN TOT HE DEALER EVER COUPLE OF MONTHS TO KEEP MY WINDOWS WORKING PROPERLY. *TR

Summary

I PURCHASED A NEW 2007 JEEP LIBERTY AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT COME FROM THE FACTORY WITH A TRAILER HITCH OR WIRING HARNESS. ON JUNE 14, I HAD THE DEALER INSTALL THE CHRYSLER RECOMMENDED HARNESS. THE HARNESS THEY INSTALLED IS THE ONE CHRYSLER SUPPLIES AND REQUIRES FOR VEHICLES WITH AN OVERHEAD CONSOLE, WHICH MY VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH. IT IS A SEVEN-WAY HARNESS, SPECIFIED AS MOPAR PART NUMBER 82207248. AFTER THE HARNESS WAS INSTALLED BY THE DEALER, I NOTICED THAT THE RUNNING LIGHTS ON MY TRAILER WERE NOT WORKING. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER WHO TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO FIX IT, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL, EVEN WITH ADVICE GIVEN BY THE CHRYSLER TECHNICAL HOTLINE. WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER'S HOTLINE TO SEE IF IT WAS POSSIBLE TO FIX, THEY TOLD ME THEY PROVIDED THE DEALER WITH THE INFORMATION TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WAS NOT THEIR PROBLEM, BUT THE DEALER'S. THEY SUGGESTED I TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALER. IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT TWO CHRYSLER DEALERS WERE UNABLE TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM ALREADY, SUGGESTING THAT I GO TO YET ANOTHER DEALER WAS VERY POOR ADVICE. THE SERVICE I RECEIVED FROM BOTH DEALERS WAS EXCELLENT, HOWEVER, THE CHRYSLER HOTLINE PERSONNEL WERE VERY RUDE TO ME, HAD NO CONCERN IN REGARD TO CORRECTING THE PROBLEM, AND PLACED BLAME ON THE DEALERS. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THIS HARNESS WILL NOT WORK AS REQUIRED FOR THE 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. ALTHOUGH THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS WORK, THE RUNNING LIGHTS ON THE TRAILER DO NOT. I REQUEST THAT ALL 2007 LIBERTIES THAT HAVE THE DEALER INSTALLED TRAILER PACKAGE WITH THE MOPAR HARNESS NUMBER 82207248 BE RECALLED AND FIXED. THIS PROBLEM IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND ONE FOR WHICH CHRYSLER NEEDS TO FIND A FIX, RATHER THAN CONTINUING TO PLACE BLAME ON THE DEALERS. *TR

Summary

WE HAVE A NEW 2007 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED, PURCHASED LAST MARCH. IMMEDIATELY WE NOTICED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WAS INACCURATE AND ALWAYS READING FAST. THIS WAS NOTICEABLY EVIDENT AS WE PASSED THROUGH SAFETY AND SCHOOL ZONES THAT SHOW THE CAR SPEED ON THE ROADSIDE. I HAD THE DEALER CHECK IT OUT AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEMS. SO WE STARTED MEASURING USING ROADSIDE MILEAGE MARKERS AND A TIMER. WE FOUND THAT AT 60 MILES/HOUR IT TOOK 315 SECONDS TO GO 5 MILES. THAT'S 5% @ 60 MPH OR 3 MPH. WE ALSO FOUND THAT IT WAS ALSO OFF BY 3 MPH AT ALL OTHER SPEEDS TOO, SO AT 30 MPH THAT TURNED OUT TO BE 10%. THAT'S UNACCEPTABLE ! HOWEVER CHRYSLER SAYS THAT'S ACCEPTABLE AND IN FACT POINTS OUT IN A PRINTED REPLY THAT THE GOVERNMENT ALLOWS THAT DEGREE OF ACCURACY NOW ASSUMING MY AVERAGE SPEED IS ABOUT 45 MPH, 3 MPH IS A 7.5% INACCURACY. I ALSO PURCHASED A LONG TERM WARRANTY AGREEMENT FROM CHRYSLER AND I WILL BE SHORT CHANGED ON THAT BY 7.5% ALSO AND THAT'S FRAUD! ALL I WANT IS FOR THE CHRYSLER TO FIX THE ALGORITHM THAT COMPUTES THE SPEED AND ODOMETER READING. THE ONLY VARIABLE THE DEALER CAN ADJUST IS THE TIRE SIZE. DOES THE GOVERNMENT SAFETY STANDARDS ALLOW FOR 7.5% INACCURACY? *TR

I WAS DRIVING ALONG IN MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY AT 34 M.P.H. WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A HORRIBLE NOISE AND THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY CAR FELL TO THE GROUND. I TRIED TO STEER SAFELY OFF THE ROAD AND FOUND THE CAR ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER AND I WAS HEADING INTO ON-COMING TRAFFIC. I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED AND I HAD TWO PASSENGERS IN MY CAR WHO WITNESSED THE SUDDEN FAILURE OF MY BRAND NEW 8 MONTH OLD CAR! IT APPEARS THAT MY LOWER RIGHT BALL JOINT FELL OUT AND BROKE MY CAR TO THE POINT MY TIRE CAME OFF MY RIM AS MY RIM BROKE WHEN THE CAR FELL TO THE GROUND. THERE IS SO MUCH FRONT END DAMAGE THAT MY CAR IS NOW TOTALED AND I AM OUT A NEW VEHICLE. THE LOCAL DEALER WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM AS THEY SAY THE 2007 WAS NOT PART OF THE MASSIVE RECALL ON OTHER LIBERTY'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I'VE ASKED MY INSURANCE COMPANY FOR AN INVESTIGATION AND I'VE E-MAILED THE JEEP CORPORATION WITH THE SAME REQUEST, BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE GETS HURT OR WORSE! SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP UP HERE AND INVESTIGATE THESE CARS, THEY ARE NOT SAFE AND NOW I'M LEFT WITH NO CAR AND TRYING TO SETTLE WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I'M JUST GLAD THAT I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY, AS MY CAR IS TOTALED FROM 34 M.P.H., I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD I BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY. I'M ALSO THANKFUL MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT IN THE CAR AT THE TIME - PLEASE HELP GET THESE CARS OFF THE ROAD!! *TR

AFTER THIS OCCURRED MANY TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. UNKNOWN PARTS WERE REPLACED AND THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. NOW AT 7000 MILES FROM NEW THE PROBLEM HAS REOCCURRED. FROM READING BLOGS ON THE WEB THIS IS A LONGSTANDING PROBLEM THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO CORRECT PERMANENTLY! THE NECESSITY TO CARRY ON WITH ONE'S DAY MEANS THAT THE KEY WILL BE LEFT IN THE IGNITION WITH THE CAR UNATTENDED WITH ALL THE SAFETY IMPLICATIONS THAT IMPLIES; THEFT, CHILDREN,ETC.

MY SON COULD LOST CONTROL AND COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED IF HE WAS TRAVELING AT A HIGHWAY SPEED IN A 2003 JEEP LIBERTY WHEN THE UPPER BALL JOINT SUSPENSION FAILED ON HIS VEHICLE. AFTER A RECENT RECALL AND REPLACEMENT OF THE LOWER BALL JOINTS OF MY SON'S 2003 JEEP LIBERTY, THE UPPER BALL JOINT WHICH IS OF SIMILAR DESIGN AND MANUFACTURER BROKE WHILE DRIVING AT 25 MPH ON LOCAL ROAD ON PASSENGER SIDE CAUSING WHEEL TO DETACH. PER WEBSITE POSTINGS JOINT IS SEALED AND THUS CANNOT BE MAINTAINED OR LUBRICATED. A CHRYSLER REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT IT STANDS BEHIND ITS PARTS PRODUCTS BUT REFUSES TO ADDRESS $900 REPAIR OR TOWING AS IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO RECALL OR WARRANTY. VEHICLE WAS NOT USED FOR OFF-ROADING OR AGGRESSIVE DRIVING. I HAVE KEPT THE PARTS. AM THANKFUL THAT SON IS OK BUT HAVE RECEIVED NO SATISFACTION FROM CHRYSLER OR DEALER WHERE VEHICLE HAS BEEN MAINTAINED. OWNERS SHOULD BE NOTIFIED SO THAT THEY CAN HAVE THEIR VEHICLES INSPECTED TO AVERT THIS SAME FAILURE ALTHOUGH RECENT INSPECTION OF LOWER BALL JOINTS THAT WERE SUBJECT TO RECALL DID NOT PREVENT THE UPPER BALL JOINT FAILURE IN OUR CASE. *TR

THE WATER STAINS ON THE SEATS HAVE BROUGHT DOWN THE VALUE OF THE CAR. I WAS TOLD HOW TO CLEAN THEM, AND EVEN HAD A DEALER CLEAN THEM FOR ME. AND NOW THEY ARE WORSE THEN EVER. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT, BUT THAT CANNOT BE AT ALL TRUE. THE CAR IS 4 MONTHS OLD, AND ON THE INSIDE LOOKS 10 YEARS OLD. WATER DOES NOT STAIN OR RATHER NEVER IN ANY OF MY OTHER CARS. IT DOES NOT TAKE A GENIUS TO FIGURE THIS OUT. THE COMPANY IS IN MAJOR DENIAL ABOUT THIS. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON OTHER WEBSITES AND HAVE DISCOVERED NUMEROUS LETTERS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. SO, IF THIS IS NOT A DEFECT, THEN WHAT IS IT? A FLUKE? I HARDLY THINK SO.

I PURCHASED A NEW 2007 JEEP LIBERTY ON MARCH 19, 2007 IT HAD UNDER 20 MILES ON IT. AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP THE JEEP OVERHEATED ABOUT 15 MILES LATER. I PULLED OVER, POPPED THE HOOD, AND SAW THAT THE COOLANT OVERFLOW TANK WAS BONE DRY. IT TOOK ABOUT 1 GALLON OF COOLANT TO FILL THE TANK. WITHIN MINUTES OF FILLING THE TANK I HEARD A GURGLING NOISE WHEN I WOULD MAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN. I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME, SINCE IT WAS LATE AT NIGHT AND PARKED IT. THE FOLLOWING MORNING I POPPED THE HOOD AND NOTICED THAT THE COOLANT LEVEL HAD DROPPED. THIS CONTINUED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY AND THE FOLLOWING DAY. TWO DAYS AFTER I PURCHASED THE JEEP, ON MARCH 21, 2007, I BROUGHT THE JEEP BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. UPON INSPECTION THEY FOUND COOLANT IN THE ENGINE. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND HAD A SERIOUS PROBLEM. THEY TOOK THE ENGINE APART, AND FOUND NOT ONLY A BLOWN HEAD GASKET, BUT ALSO A DEFECTIVE ENGINE BLOCK. THEY WERE IN THE PROCESS OF REPLACING THE ENTIRE ENGINE. THE ORIGINAL ENGINE WAS SEVERELY DEFECTIVE AND COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. DAIMLER CHRYSLER WILL NOT EXTEND MY WARRANTY OR OFFER ANY SATISFACTORY CUSTOMER SERVICE REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. IN FACT, THEY WON'T EVEN DISCUSS IT WITH ME. THEY TOLD ME TO TALK TO THE DEALERSHIP. WHO ADVISED ME TO TALK TO CHRYSLER CORPORATION. I PUT A TOTAL OF 90 MILES ON A NEW VEHICLE IN 2 DAYS, AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE IT IN A WEEK DUE TO A FAILED ENGINE.*AK

Summary

MY JEEP LIBERTY SPORT CRD HAS 16000 MILES ON IT, AND SINCE NEW IT HAS HAD A SHUDDER OR STUMBLE FROM 50 TO 60 MPH. IT HAS HAD REPAIRS TO FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT IT STILL REMAIN TO THIS DAY. THIS PROBLEM CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO LOOSE CONTROL IN THE WINTER CONDITIONS IN MY AREA. WHICH CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO END UP IN THE DITCH. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE IF THERE WAS TRAFFIC AT THE TIME. *JB
