2006 Jeep Liberty Complaint Log

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 80 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. UNEXPECTEDLY, THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW GLASS BEGAN TO FALL INSIDE THE DOOR PANEL. THE DRIVER IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO SECURE THE GLASS WITH A HEAVY DUTY ADHESIVE. THE AUTHORIZED DEALER STATED THAT THE WINDOW REGULATOR WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND WOULD COST $450 TO REPAIR. THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR SO THE CONTACT SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT TO SECURE THE WINDOW GLASS IN THE INTERIM. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE UNAVAILABLE.

THE CONSUMER WAS DRIVING WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED TO 65 MPH. NO AMOUNT OF PUSHING ON THE BRAKES MADE THE CAR STOP.

I PURCHASED 4 GOODYEAR TIRES IN OCT 2006,I HAVE A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT,I HAVE LESS THAN 15,000 MILES ON THESE TIRES,I WAS TOLD BY THE GOODYEAR STORE MANAGER THAT THESE TIRES ARE PREMATURELY WEARING, I ASK WHAT COULD BE DONE TO SATISFY THIS AND WAS TOLD IN A LETTER BY GOODYEAR THAT I WOULD HAVE TO BRING IN THE JEEP AND ALL 4 TIRES WOULD HAVE TO BE REMOVED FROM THE JEEP AND BE SENT TO GOODYEAR FOR FURTHER EVALUATION, I ASKED HOW AM I GOING TO GET MY JEEP HOME AND I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE TIRES, I EXPLAINED THAT I AM A DISABLED VETERAN AND I COULDN'T AFFORD TO JUST PICK UP AND BUY 4 NEW TIRES, I AM ONLY ASKING FOR REPLACEMENT TIRES. *TR

THE WINDOW DON'T WORK AND WE HAVE TO TAPE THEM SHUT BECAUSE WE CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX THEM WILL THIS BE A RECALL. *TR

2006 JEEP LIBERTY WINDOW FELL DOWN WITHOUT HAVING ANY REASON. I HAVE READ ON THIS WEBSITE THAT AN INVESTIGATION DOES NOT NEED A SPECIFIC NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS TO START. I AM JUST WONDERING WHY A PART THAT COST FROM 350-600 TO REPLACE AND HAS A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS DOES NOT HAVE AN INVESTIGATION. THIS TO ME SEEMS LIKE A ONE WAY FOR THE CHRYSLER DEALER DECIDED TO START TO MAKE MONEY. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD ALL FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS REPLACED IN THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE IS DOWN AGAIN. WHEN WILL THE MANUFACTURE OR SAFERCAR GOING TO STEP TO THE PLATE AND DO WHAT THEY SAY THEY WILL DO? *TR

THE POWER WINDOWS IN MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY HAVE A DESIGN DEFECT. THE ORIGINAL DESIGN INCLUDES A PLASTIC PART WHICH BREAKS AND ALLOWS THE WINDOW TO FALL DOWN INTO THE DOOR. MY DRIVER-SIDE PASSENGER WINDOW HAS BEEN HELD UP WITH TAPE FOR THE PAST 12 MONTHS. I RECENTLY HAD TO PAY $250 TO HAVE THE DRIVER'S-SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR REPLACED. RESEARCHING ONLINE I HAVE SEEN INCIDENTS WHERE OWNERS HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE SAME WINDOW REPLACED TWO OR THREE TIMES AT $300-$500 PER INCIDENT.MOPAR BODY SERVICE BULLETIN 23-008-09 AND 23-014-08 DETAIL THE ISSUE AND CHRYSLER'S CORRECTION. PLEASE LET ME KNOW ([XXX]) IF THIS IS SUBJECT TO A NHTSA SAFETY RECALL OR OF I SHOULD START A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT TO CORRECT THIS DEFECT. THERE IS AN AFTERMARKET KIT WHICH REPLACES THE FAULTY PLASTIC PART WITH A STEEL PART AT HTTP://WWW.STEIGERPERFORMANCE.COM. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WOULD WARM UP, THE VEHICLE MADE A CLINGING SOUND THAT APPEARED TO ORIGINATE FROM THE BLOWER. WITHIN THREE DAYS, THE SOUND WORSENED AND THE STEERING BECAME STIFF. THE VEHICLE WOULD VEER TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT AND WAS SEVERELY OUT OF ALIGNMENT. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT BOTH OF THE WHEEL BEARINGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT IT WAS VERY UNCOMMON FOR BOTH WHEEL BEARINGS TO BECOME DEFECTIVE. IT WAS ASSUMED THAT THE WHEEL BEARINGS WERE ORIGINALLY DEFECTIVE. THE WHEEL BEARINGS WERE REPLACED BY THE DEALER, BUT SHE BELIEVES THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 70,000.

UNCONTROLLED ACCELERATION. WHILE AT A FULL STOP AT A RED LIGHT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE ENGINE STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR STARTED JUMPING AS THE REAR TIRES 'BURNED RUBBER'. PRESSING HARDER ON THE BRAKE DID NOT HELP. I PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND THEN THE ENGINE WENT BACK TO IDLE. THIS IS THE THIRD INSTANCE OF THIS IN 5 YEARS (THE FIRST WAS APPROXIMATELY 1/16/09 IN NYC, THEN AGAIN ON 2/6/12 IN NM, AND THEN THIS ONE ON 10/20/14 IN NY. THE FIRST TIME I WAS AT A BUSY CROSSWALK BY A SCHOOL. THERE COULD HAVE BEEN MANY INJURIES. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS AT A FULL STOP, THE ENGINE AT IDLE AND MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STARTED ACCELERATING WILDLY. UPDATED 12/02/14. *JB

UNCONTROLLED ACCELERATION 2006 JEEP LIBERTY CRD. WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, ENGINE IDLING, FOOT ON THE BRAKE, MY ENGINE STARTED TO WILDLY ACCELERATE. I HELD THE BRAKE AS HARD AS I COULD AND THE REAR WHEELS STARTED SPINNING AND BURNING RUNNER AND THE ENTIRE CAR WAS 'JUMPING'. AFTER A FEW SECONDS OF THIS I PUT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. WHEN I RESTARTED IT MOMENTS LATER IT WAS FINE. I BROUGHT IT TO MY JEEP DEALER IN MT KISCO NY BUT THEY COULDN'T IND ANYTHING WRONG. IT HASN'T DONE IT AGAIN. THERE WAS NOTHING JAMMING THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR WAS AT A STOP AND IDLING WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STARTED RACING ON IT'S OWN. *TR

HELLO, I BOUGHT A 2006 JEEP CHEROKEE SPORT IN ROMANIA KJ / LE85 (THE LIBERTY 4X4 JEEP FOR EUROPE), FROM CASA AUTO ROMANIA: / 7 FEBRUARY 2007. MY TECHNICAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR, STILL IN WARRANTY (2 YEARS WARRANTY IN ROMANIA) ARE: -THE ESP/BAS WARNING LAMP COMES ON CONTINUOUSLY WITH ENGINE RUNNING, THE LIGHT REMAINS ON AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 30MPS. FIRST, THIS PROBLEM WAS RANDOMLY APPEARING, BUT NOW IT APPEARS EACH TIME I AM DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITH SPEEDS GREATER THAN 30 MILES/H . -2 TIMES MY ENGINE LOST POWER FOR NO REASON; -THE FUEL CONSUMPTION URBAN: CA 17 L / 100 KM; -THE FUEL CONSUMPTION EXTRA URBAN: CA 12 / /100 KM. MY CAR IS FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THE SERVICE IN THE LAST 6 WEEKS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM ? ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, THE PRIMARY SAFETY SYSTEM OF THIS VEHICLE. FIRST TIME, AFTER 3 WEEKS THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM. I BROUGHT IT BACK NEXT DAY WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. MY CAR IS STILL IN SERVICE. MY GREAT PROBLEM IS THAT MY AUTHORIZED DEALER IS UNABLE OR DON'T WANT TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS, WAITING TO EXPIRE THE WARRANTY OF MY CAR ? IN FEW DAYS. THEY DON?T WANT TO OFFER WARRANTY FOR THE PIECES THEY REPLACED, THEY SAY THE WARRANTY OF THIS PIECES REPLACED EXPIRES WITH THE WARRANTY OF THE CAR. I'M AFRAID THIS PROBLEM IS UNSOLVABLE FOR CHRYSLER LLC, AND MY CAR IS AN UNSAFE CAR. ALSO, I WANT YOU TO HELP ME WITH THE SERIAL NUMBER OF THE COMPONENTS OF MY CAR: WIND SCREEN, BATTERY, PISTONS,?. I FOUND THIS LINKS ON INTERNET WITH 2006 LIBERTY JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME UNSOLVABLE PROBLEM.

DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WENT OFF TRACK AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FIXED IT. NOW THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR WINDOW FALLS DOWN FOR NO APPARENT REASON. IT HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES DAILY I CAN NOT KEEP IT UP. THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW KEEPS GOING OFF TRACK. THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW SQUEAKS REAL BAD. *TR

THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED UP. GAS STATION PUMPS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY STOP WHEN FILLING THE TANK. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME AND AT EVERY GAS STATION. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR STARTING A FIRE. IT ALSO LEAKS FUEL INTO THE ENVIRONMENT. *TR

JEEP WINDOWS: JEEP CHANGED THE MOTOR/REGULATOR STYLE AND NOW YOU HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW WINDOW TO GET YOUR ELECTRIC WINDOWS TO WORK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THEY WILL NOT RECALL THE MOTORS OR REGULATORS. YOU CAN CALL ANY JEEP DEALER AND THEY WILL ADMIT THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS AND WANT THE CONSUMER TO PAY 1/2 THE COST FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY KNOW IS WRONG. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WITHIN SIX MONTHS, THE WINDOW REGULATORS THAT POWER THE WINDOWS FAILED. FOUR DIFFERENT REGULATORS HAD TO BE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, ALL OF THE WINDOWS ON THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE WARRANTY EXPIRES IN MARCH OF 2009 AND THE REGULATORS CONTINUE TO FAIL. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE REGULATORS FOR FREE DURING THE NEXT REPAIR AND THAT NO RECALL WAS AVAILABLE FOR THE WINDOWS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000.

2006 JEEP LIBERTY - GAS TANK FUELING ISSUE. WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GASOLINE AT THE SERVICE STATION THE FUEL PUMP WILL NOT SHUT-OFF AND GASOLINE OVERFLOWS FROM TANK. MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS TRIED, PROBLEM EXISTS AT ALL FUEL PUMPS. POTENTIAL PERSONAL INJURY OR FIRE HAZARD WITH GASOLINE OVERFLOWING FROM TANK. JEEP CHYRSLER DEALERSHIP CANNOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AFTER 5 VISITS TO DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGES PROBLEM AND HAS HAD JEEP CHYRSLER ENGINEERING HAS BEEN INVOLVED WITH NO RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. POTENTIAL PERSONAL INJURY OR FIRE HAZARD WITH GAS OVERFLOWING FROM TANK. FIRST REPORTED TO JEEP CHYRSLER IN DEC 2008 AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. DEALER HAS REPLACED GAS TANK 3 TIMES AND NEW GAS TANKS DO NOT FILL PROPERLY. JEEP CHRYSLER INDICATES THAT DESIGN CHANGE HAS OCCURRED ON REPLACEMENT TANKS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH 2006 VEHICLE. FAULTY GASOLINE TANK CURRENTLY INSTALLED ON VEHICLE. *TR

WANTED A SMOKE AND ROLLED DOWN THE REAR WINDOW A LITTLE BY MISTAKE. TRIED TO ROLL IT UP AND NOTHING. LOOK BACK AND THE WINDOW IS SITTING HALFWAY DOWN. PULLED OVER TO TRY AND GET THE WINDOW UP AND THE DOOR WONT OPEN. PIECE OF THE WINDOW ASSEMBLY IS INTERFERING WITH THE LOCK BECAUSE THE KIDS GOT IN THAT DOOR WHEN WE LEFT. DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. IT OPENS 1/2 INCH AND STICKS. *TR

WHEN CHANGING BRAKE PADS, I NOTICED A BUBBLE ON THE SIDE OF THE BRAKE LINE. ALL 4 BRAKE LINES WERE INVOLVED. THE BUBBLE WAS ON THE RUBBER PORTION OF THE LINE CLOSE TO THE CALIPER. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE LINES REPLACED. THEIR INSPECTION IDENTIFIED A FIFTH LINE WITH A RUPTURE ALSO. ALL WERE REPLACED. SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY COMPONENT I ASKED IF JEEP WAS REPLACING THE PARTS AND WAS INFORMED IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THEM OR MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS VEHICLE IS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY AND HAD 48,870 MILES AT THE TIME. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY 4X4. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT ACCIDENTALLY LOWERED THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW. SHE ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE WINDOW, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. SHE PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO PHYSICALLY PUSH THE WINDOW BACK UP; HOWEVER, THE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN IN COLD WEATHER WITH THE WINDOW DOWN AND THE CONTACT'S TODDLER IN THE BACK SEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A LOCAL MECHANIC AT HER RESIDENCE AND SHE WAS INFORMED THAT THE REGULATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED HER TO CALL THE SENIOR DEPARTMENT, BUT SHE RECEIVED NO ASSISTANCE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 46,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,975.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, I TRIED TO OPERATE FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT REAR WINDOWS AND THEY WOULD NOT ROLL UP OR DOWN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY REPAIRED BOTH. HOWEVER, SINCE THEN THERE HAVE BEEN 7 MORE INSTANCES ON ALL WINDOWS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. CURRENTLY, THE BACK PASSENGER WINDOW IS NOT OPERATING AND THE DEALER REFUSES TO REPAIR IT BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS A NEWLY OPENED DODGE, CHRYSLER, JEEP DEALER IN MY TOWN. THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE MANY PROBLEMS I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH THIS JEEP LIBERTY, INCLUDING THE PCM IS CURRENTLY NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY MAKING THE VEHICLE IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE. AT MY WIT'S END WITH THIS VEHICLE.

LIKE MANY JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS, I TOO HAVE A REAR DRIVER'S WINDOW THAT IS TAPED UP TO PREVENT IT FROM FALLING DOWN INTO THE DOOR. MY MILEAGE AT THE TIME 32,000. ESTIMATED COST $280.00. *TR

REPEATED WINDOW REGULATOR FAILURE. *TR

IGNITION SWITCH BINDS UP INTERMITTENTLY ALSO SHIFTER AND STEERING WHEEL DO NOT LOCK UP AND CAN MOVE SHIFTER FROM PARK WITHOUT PUSHING BRAKE. ADJUSTED SHIFT CABLE BUT DID NOT SOLVE PROBLEM. FOUND THAT SHIFTER AND CABLE ASSEMBLY WERE WORN. REMOVED AND REPLACED SHIFT INTERLOCK CABLE AND GEAR SHIFT ASSEMBLY. TEST OPERATION OK. *TR

THIS IS MY THIRD COMPLAINT FOR THE SAME ON -GOING PROBLEM. THE ABS/BAS, ESP LAMP WILL COME ON WHEN GOING 45-50 MPH OR MEDIUM ACCELERATION. AT VARIOUS TIME THE ENGINE WILL LOSE POWER. JEEP LIBERTY HAS BEEN TAKEN BACK THREE TIMES TO DEALER. THEY SAID THEY ARE UNABLE TO DUPILCATE PROBLEM AS THE PROBLEM MUST NE ACTIVE. THE CODES ARE PRESENT, BUT NOT ACTIVE. I'VE WRITTEN CHRYSLER/JEEP WITH NOT HELP OR ASSISTANCE. VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE WINDOW MOTOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE SINCE RECURRED ON TWO OCCASIONS; ON THE REAR DRIVER'S WINDOW AND THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER TO BE REPAIRED ON EACH OCCASION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

THIS IS MY SECOND TIME IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. MY LAST COMPLAINT WAS THE ABS/BAS, ESP LAMP COMING ON. MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 1-1/2 WEEKS. THE DEALER SAYS THE CODES ARE STORED, BUT THEY MUST BE ACTIVE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. THE DAY AFTER PICKING UP MY JEEP LIBERTY, I WAS DRIVING ON THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY AT 45-50 MPH, THE SAME LAMPS CAME ON. NOW I AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 24,888. I RECENTLY WROTE TO CHRYSLER TO COMPLAIN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDOW REGULATOR BECAME INOPERABLE AND THE WINDOWS COULD NOT BE CLOSED. THE FAILURE WAS RECURRING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN VERIFIED THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE REGULATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDOW REGULATORS CONTINUOUSLY FAIL, CAUSING THE WINDOWS TO FALL INTO THE DOOR PANEL ABNORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALER THE FIRST THREE TIMES OF THE FAILURE AND WAS REPAIRED UNDER THE CONTACTS WARRANTY. MOST RECENTLY, THE WINDOW REGULATORS FAILED AGAIN AND THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING A RETURN CALL FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO DETERMINE IF THEY WOULD ASSIST WITH THE CONTINUAL FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000. UPDATED 01/13/11*LJ THE VEHICLE HAS SINCE BEEN SOLD. UPDATED 01/27/11

ABS/BAS, ESP AND TRACTION CONTROL CONTINUES TO COME ON. THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND THE DEALER IS VERY COOPERATIVE. THEY CONTINUE TO WORK WITH CHRYSLER AND JEEP, BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME BACK TO THE DEALER. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 24,000 MILES. *TR

TWO WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY, THE REAR LEFT WINDOW DROPPED AND COULD NOT BE ROLLED UP OR DOWN. IT WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. THE NEXT TIME IT WAS THE RIGHT REAR WINDOW AND IT COST $429.26. THREE WEEKS LATER THE REAR LEFT WINDOW DROPPED AGAIN. THIS TIME WE CONTACTED JEEP/CHRYSLER AND WERE TOLD THAT ALTHOUGH THE WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM HAD BEEN EXTENDED FOR THE 2006 JEEP LIBERTY THAT MINE WAS NOT INCLUDED BECAUSE IT WAS BUILT IN OCTOBER/2005. THE AGENT SAID NOTHING COULD BE DONE AND THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE TO TALK TO - IT WAS A FINAL DECISION. I CALLED BACK AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PREVIOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE AGENT DIDN'T FOLLOW PROCEDURE AND WAS "STUNNED" AT THE WAY I WAS TREATED AND I WAS THEN ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER AND A CASE MANAGER. THERE HAVE NOW BEEN 14 PHONE CALLS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN RESOLVED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. SMALL CHILDREN RIDE IN THE BACK SEAT THAT COULD GET OUT OF SAFETY RESTRAINTS AND BE IN DANGER. THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE LOCKED UP AND SECURED AND IT'S SCARY TO HAVE TO GET INSIDE AN UNSECURED VEHICLE AT NIGHT. THE INTERIOR IS BEING DESTROYED BY CONSTANTLY BEING RAINED AND SNOWED UPON IN A REGION OF THE COUNTRY THAT HAS MORE COLD AND WET WEATHER THAN ANYTHING ELSE. JEEP REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, NO STANDARD POLICY BEING FOLLOWED BY JEEP TO GET THIS MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT FIXED, AND NO RECALL FOR A PROBLEM THAT HAPPENS OVER AND OVER AGAIN ON THE SAME VEHICLE. IF JEEP WILL NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM WITH THEIR PRODUCT, THEN CONSUMERS SHOULD UNITE A FILE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT BECAUSE THE WAY JEEP IS HANDLING THIS IS JUST PLAIN WRONG. *TR

WHILE I WAS AWAY FROM MY JEEP, THE RIGHT REAR WINDOW ROLLED DOWN AND BROKE -- AGAIN. THAT WAS THE 6TH TIME THIS OCCURRED IN THIS VEHICLE TO THESE WINDOWS. NOT MORE THAN 10 MINUTE LATER, THE LEFT REAR WINDOW BROKE, EXACTLY AS THEY ALL HAVE DONE. SO, THIS IS THE 7TH TIME EACH OF 4 WINDOW MECHANISMS IN THIS JEEP HAVE FAILED. *TR

WHEN I PARKED MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN THE KEY AND PULL IT OUT OF THE IGNITION, THE KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT. IT WOULD GO NO FURTHER THAN THE LOCK POSITION. IT APPEARS THAT THE SHIFTING CABLE THAT READS WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK AND ENABLES ONE TO REMOVE THE KEY HAD FAILED AND WAS NOT READING THAT MY CAR WAS ACTUALLY IN PARK. I HAD TO PRESS THE CABLE DOWN IN ORDER TO REMOVE MY KEY. I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH FOR THE PROBLEM AND IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE 2004-2006 JEEP LIBERTY. NOW MY SHIFTER DOES NOT STOP BETWEEN GEARS, IT SIMPLY SLIDES THROUGH THEM WITHOUT HAVING TO PRESS THE BUTTON THAT WOULD NORMALLY LOCK THEM IN PLACE. I CAN SHIFT FROM REVERSE TO PARK WITHOUT PRESSING THE BREAK AND WITHOUT PUSHING THE BUTTON. IN ORDER TO PULL MY KEY OUT I HAVE TO TAKE THE COVER OFF AND PRESS DOWN ON THE CABLE. NOW THAT I NOTICED IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH OTHER JEEP LIBERTY'S, I THINK A RECALL IS IN ORDER. *TR

2006 JEEP LIBERTY WINDOW REGULATOR WENT BAD. ON AUGUST 20, 2008, I NOTICED THAT MY REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WAS DOWN A BIT. TRIED TO POWER IT UP, BUT IT WOULD GO. EVENTUALLY SLID DOWN INTO DOOR. I DID SOME INTERNET RESEARCH AND FOUND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAD TO HAVE REGULATORS REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY CRD. THE EGR FAILED AT 17K MILES. IT WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. IT FAILED AGAIN AT 52K MILES, I PAID FOR THAT REPLACEMENT. NOW THE ENGINE IS PLUGGED WITH CARBON FROM THE EGR SYSTEM. EACH TIME THERE IS A FAILURE OF THE EGR, IT WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE ENGINE TO SUDDENLY "LOOSE POWER" AND RUN AS IF IN A "LIMP" MODE EVEN THOUGHT THE OBD DIAGNOSTICS FAIL TO ACKNOWLEDGE SUCH. THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE THAT CHRYSLER WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE. IT CAUSES AIR POLLUTION AND A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE ABILITY TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE NORMALLY IS GREATLY HINDERED WITHOUT WARNING. CONSUMER IS ASKED TO PAY $2,300.00 FOR A TEMPORARY REPAIR FOR THE FACTORY'S POOR DESIGN. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR FRACTURED, WHICH CAUSED THE CABLES TO SNAP AND THE WINDOW TO FAIL. SHE CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE FRONT WINDOW REGULATORS WERE IN THE PROCESS OF FAILING. THE REPAIR WOULD COST $329 FOR EACH WINDOW AND ASSOCIATED PARTS. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS COMMON FOR THIS YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL VEHICLE. AS OF MARCH 12, 2009, THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT WOULD NOT ASSUME LIABILITY FOR THE REPAIRS DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING OUTSIDE OF THE FACTORY WARRANTY. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

THERE IS A SLIGHT FUEL SYSTEM LEAK THAT ALLOWS AN AIR POCKET TO BUILD IN THE FUEL FILTER HOUSING. WHEN THIS AIR POCKET GETS DRAWN INTO THE INJECTOR PUMP, THE ENGINE BEGINS RUNNING BADLY, CAUSING IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER. THIS HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES, THE FIRST TIME THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, SO THERE WAS NO POINT IN RETURNING TO WASTE MY TIME AFTER THAT. I KNOW HOW TO TEMPORARILY FIX THE PROBLEM NOW THAT I HAVE READ SO MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING, AS NOTED IN THE LOST INTERNET FORUM. THE LATEST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED AT 65 MPH PASSING ON THE FREEWAY, AND I NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT TRYING TO MANEUVER OFF THE ROAD WHEN I LOST POWER. *TR

1. I PURCHASED MY JEEP LIBERTY CRD NEW IN SEP 2006. I NOTICED COMING HOME FROM WORK TODAY THAT IT SOUNDED LIKE THE REAR WINDOW DRIVER SIDE WAS SLIGHTLY OPEN SO I TRIED TO CLOSE IT AND HEARD A GRATING NOISE SO I STOPPED PUSHING THE BUTTON. DROVE HOME. GOT OUT AND LOOKED. SAW IT WAS DOWN ABOUT AN INCH. TRIED TO RAISE IT. SAME NOISE. USED MY HANDS AND PUSHED IT UP. KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG. GOT THE HUSBAND. HE PULLED OFF THE PANEL... WE SAW THE ORANGE REGULATOR CORD WAS NOT ATTACHED. THEN DISCOVERED IT WAS NOT SCREWED IN TO THE MOTOR ON THE OTHER END. BROKEN PLASTIC. ODOMETER READING 36150. PRICELESS. 2. THIS IS THE FIRST I HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM. I LIVE IN COLORADO AND NO ONE EVEN SITS IN THE REAR SEAT. YES IT GETS HOT. BUT I HAD A 1994 FORD EXPLORE WITH OVER 200K THAT I SIGNED OVER TO MY DAUGHTER WHEN SHE GRADUATED AND THE WINDOWS NEVER DIED.... 3. APPEARS SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AT 36150 I WILL NEED TO CONTACT THE DEALER AND PAY $375 TO REPLACE THE REGULATOR THAT IS WELL DOCUMENTED AS NONFUNCTIONAL. *TR

THE POWER WINDOW FAIL THE GLASS GOING DOWN WHEN YOU TRY TO UP AND THEY REPAIR ABOUT 4 TIMES IN DIFFERENT DOORS THE LAST INCIDENT WAS JULY 15,2008. *TR

THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IN 5 YEARS THAT THE DS REAR WINDOW REGULATOR HAS FAILED CAUSING THE WINDOW TO SLIDE DOWN THE TRACK. THE LASTEST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT 60 MPH. THE WINDOW WAS NOT BEING OPERATED AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. *TR

THE WINDOW REGULATORS IN MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY HAVE BROKEN AND FALLEN DOWN 10 DIFFERENT TIMES IN THE PAST 4 YEARS THAT I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST 9 TIMES WERE BOTHERSOME AND ABOUT 450.00 EACH TO GET FIXED BUT THIS LAST ONE IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE A 10 WEEK OLD BABY AND THE WINDOW DECIDED TO FALL DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF A STORM AND I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE INTERSTATE TO PULL THE WINDOW BACK UP TO STOP THE FLOOD OF RAIN THAT WAS FALLING ON MY (AT THE TIME) 8 WEEK OLD BABY. MY BABY WAS SCREAMING HIS HEAD OFF AS I AM SURE THAT MUCH RAIN COMING IN THE WIDE OPENED WINDOW AT 50-60 (WAS DRIVING SLOWER DUE TO LOW VISIBILITY IN STORM) MILES AN HOUR DID NOT FEEL GOOD. I HAD TO FIND THE RIGHT TIME TO PULL OFF THE ROAD THEN CLIMB IN BACK, UNDO CAR SEAT, SLIDE IT OVER AND DUCT TAPE THE WINDOW. I WAS ALONE AND THEN HAD TO REATTACH THE CAR SEAT TO THE BASE AND DRY OFF MY INFANT. I AM THANKFUL THAT NO ONE HIT US WHILE I WAS PARKED ON THE INTERSTATE IN A RAINSTORM WITH MY CHILD NOT BUCKLED IN TO THE CAR. I WAS IN A PANIC TRYING TO FIX THIS. NOW JEEP IS REFUSING TO FIX THIS FREE OF CHARGE DUE TO LACK OF RECALL. PLEASE MAKE THEM RECALL THIS DEFECTIVE PART SO THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. I LIVE IN MOBILE, AL AND IT IS SCORCHING HOT AND I CAN'T BE DRIVING HIM AROUND WITH THE WINDOW DOWN. ALSO, IT DOESN'T STAY UP FOR MORE THAN A DAY WITH THE DUCT TAPE BECAUSE OF THE HEAT MELTING THE GLUE ON THE TAPE. IT'S JUST DANGEROUS. *TR
