THE FUEL TANK HAS A CHANCE OF EXPERIENCING A FUEL LEAK DURINGCERTAIN TYPES OF REAR END COLLISIONS. THIS COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.

FUEL OVERFLOW AT GAS PUMP. INLET CHECK VALVE. FUEL SPILLS ALL OUT OF FILLER OPENING.

THE CLUTCH IGNITION, POWER SWITCH OF MY TRUCK KEEPS STALLS. THE VEHICLE DON'T START, WHEN THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS PUSHED DOWN. ALSO THE ENGINE CRANK AND START WITHOUT THE CLUTCH PEDAL BEING PUSHED DOWN CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO UNEXPECTEDLY LURCH. I WAS NOTIFIED BY A DEALER AFTER INSPECTION THAT SAID PROBLEM IS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM, THAT WAS ON RECALL. HOWEVER SAID MY VEHICLE VIN# COULD NOT BE LOCATED WITH THE RECALL. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER ON 1-800-992-1997, AND WAS TOLD I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. I WILL HIGHLY APPRECIATE YOUR IMMEDIATE INTERVENTION.

NOTICED THAT THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE FELT LOOSE. THERE HAD BEEN A LOUD METAL SCRAPING NOISE WHILE DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH ABOUT A MONTH EARLIER, HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED BUT NOTHING WAS FOUND. TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR NEW FRONT TIRES AND AN ALIGNMENT AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE LOWER BALL JOINT HAS A LOT OF PLAY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BALL JOINTS BUT WHEN I CONTACTED CHRYSLER I WAS TOLD THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. THE RECALL L27 INCLUDES MY STATE THAT THE VEHICLE IS REGISTERED IN BUT IT WAS BOUGHT IN VIRGINIA, WHICH IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE HAS 120,000 MILES ON IT.

DUE TO A MANUFACTURING ERROR OF A TIRE, I HAD A BLOWOUT ON THE INTERSTATE THAT ENDED UP TOTALING MY CAR. THE TREAD COMPLETELY SPLIT FROM THE TIRE WHILE DRIVING AT 70 MPH. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT ANY COLLISIONS OR DAMAGE TO MYSELF OR OTHERS. THE BLOWOUT RIPPED OFF PIECES OF THE FRONT BUMPER, SOME SIDING OF THE CAR, AND CAUSED HUGE COSMETIC DAMAGE IN ADDITION TO WRECKING THE FRAME AND CAUSING SOME INTERNAL DAMAGE, INCLUDING A LEAK OF WIPER FLUID. MY CAR WAS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY (WITH 60,000 MILES) AND THE TIRE WAS A GOODYEAR WRANGLER ST TIRE WITH DOT # M671 EKER. (THERE WAS NO SET OF NUMBERS FOLLOWING THE EKER AS ON MOST TIRES, JUST A BLANK SPACE.)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, A LOUD AND SUDDEN BANGING NOISE OCCURRED DUE TO THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW SUDDENLY COMING OFF TRACK AND FALLING INTO THE DOOR PANEL. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS ON BOTH PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS AND THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. EACH TIME THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WESTBURY JEEP/CHRYSLER LOCATED IN WESTBURY, NY WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WINDOW REGULATORS FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE FRONT LOWER BALL JOINT DELAMINATED FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE WITHOUT WARNING. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING AND CRASHED INTO A CONCRETE WALL. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LAKESHORE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT (LOCATED AT 330 E HOWZE BEACH RD, SLIDELL, LA 70461 (985) 641-9595). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

I FOUND ONLINE THAT THERE'S A RECALL ON LOWER BALL JOINTS THAT GET CORRODED AND STOP WORKING PROPERLY, THAT CAN CAUSE A BREAK OF THE ITEM AND LOOSE THE STEERING WHILE DRIVING. WELL IT'S ALREADY CORRODED AND NO WHEEL ALIGNMENT CAN BE DONE WITHOUT REPLACING BOTH JOINTS.ALREADY CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY DENIED ANY RECALL ON BALL JOINTS. I DECIDED TO STOP DRIVING THE CAR BECAUSE IT'S GETTING HARD TO DRIVE. WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL YOU CAN FEEL THE JOINT MAKING A METAL TO METAL SOUND, WHILE STOPPING AND WHEN STARTING TO MOVE

ON CROWDED CITY STREET APPLIED BRAKES AS SOMEONE WAS STARTING TO CROSS STREET IN A CROSSWALK. ENGINE STARTED TO REV UP AND CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I WENT THROUGH THE CROSSWALK AND MANAGED TO STOP SAFELY. TRIED A FEW SLOW SPEED STOPS, AND CAR SEEMED OKAY. THEN A FEW MINUTES LATER AT ANOTHER CROSSWALK APPLIED BRAKES. ENGINE REVVED UP. HAD BOTH FEET ON BRAKES. REAR BRAKES SEEMED TO FAIL. REAR TIRES STARTED TO BURN RUBBER WITH LOUD SQUEALING NOISE. I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT INTO PARK. ENGINE SLOWED DOWN AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE OFF AFTERWARDS. MADE IT HOME (9 MILES). DID A FEW SLOW STOPS ON THE WAY. BRAKES WORKED OKAY AND ENGINE DID NOT REV. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT ANY FURTHER DRIVING OF THIS VEHICLE. PEDESTRIAN LIVES DEFINITELY WERE IN DANGER.

WHEN FUELING, THE PUMP DOES NOT SHUT OFF. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED AS AN O-RING PROBLEM AND RECALLED IN LATER MODELS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V252000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, STRUCTURE). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (AL SERRA JEEP, CHRYSLER IN GRAND BLANC, MICHIGAN) WHO STATED THAT THE RECALL REPAIRS COULD NOT BE PERFORMED DUE TO EXCESSIVE CORROSION OF THE FRAME. THE DEALER REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 169,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, WHILE FUELING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL WOULD SPEW BACK OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FINDLAY CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM POST FALLS (550 N ALBERTA ST, POST FALLS, ID 83854, (208) 457-1900) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK AND FUEL FILLER NECK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE FUEL SPILLS EVERYTIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED ON FULL SPEED. *TR

I ALMOST WRECKED MY CAR WHEN THE RIGHT CONTROL BAR BROKE FROM CORROSION. MY LOCAL DEALERS REFUSED TO FIX MY VEHICLE IAW THE RECALL BECAUSE IT IS REGISTERED IN VIRGINIA. I LIVE IN VIRGINIA BUT WORK IN DC. I GOT IT TO THE SHOP AND REPLACED THE SUSPENSION MYSELF, TAKING 3 DAYS AND SPENDING MORE THAN $400. SAFETY RECALL L27 / NHTSA 12V-085 REAR SUSPENSION LOWER CONTROL ARMS IF YOUR DEALER FAILS OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT WITHOUT CHARGE AND WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME, YOU MAY SUBMIT A WRITTEN COMPLAINT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR, NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION, 1200 NEW JERSEY AVE., S.E., WASHINGTON, DC 20590, OR CALL THE TOLL-FREE VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), OR GO TO HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV.

BOTH REAR WINDOW MOTORS HAVE FAILED. THE WINDOWS SLIDE DOWN INTO THE DOORS STATIONARY, AND OR DRIVING.

THE DRIVER SIDE BALL JOINT HAS BROKEN 7 TIMES IN 1 YEAR AND HAS BEEN REPLACED. USING 4 DIFFERENT MECHANICS ASSUMING IT WAS THE MECHANIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED EACH TIME WHILE DRIVING. THE LAST MECHANIC PUT AN ADDITIONAL NUT AND HAS ASSUMED TO WORK. HE ALSO INDICATED THAT HE HAS REPAIRED OTHER JEEP LIBERTY'S WITH SAME PROBLEM IN ONE CASE HE WELDED IT ON, I HAVE SEEN 3 OTHERS IN MY SMALL TOWN THAT YOU CAN SEE THEY ALSO HAVE A DRIVER FENDER THAT IS DAMAGED AS MINE IS WHEN THE BALL JOINT BREAKS AND TIRES PUSHES WHEEL FENDER OFF. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM AND CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED IN A RECALL, IT ASKS FOR A DATE, WELL THE FIRST TIME WAS SPRING OF 2017 SINCE THEN IT HAS HAPPENED 6 ADDITONAL TIMES

WE ALL OWN CARS. MY CAR HAS THIS PROBLEM WHERE THE POWER WINDOWS SUDDENLY STOP WORKING. IN OTHER WORDS, I CAN LOWER MY WINDOW AND HAVE IT SUDDENLY DECIDE TO NOT COME BACK UP, LEAVING ME WITH A VEHICLE SUBJECT TO ALL KINDS OF THEFT. THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED THIRTEEN TIMES NOW ON MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY AND CHRYSLER EXPECTS ME TO PAY $475 FOR EACH REPAIR. I WANT CHRYLSER TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE FOR ME FREE OF CHARGE, ONLY BECAUSE THEY DID THE FIRST TWELVE TIMES. WITHOUT THIS SUPPORT, I AM IN A POSITION WHERE I CANNOT KEEP MY CAR AND CANNOT AFFORD A NEW ONE. DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO LOWER YOUR CAR WINDOW AND HAVE IT SUDDENLY NOT COME BACK UP? ESPECIALLY IN THE COLD OF WINTER? THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER GAVE ME EVERY EXCUSE THEY COULD FIND TO NOT HELP ME OUT. AND THEY ALSO TOLD ME I WAS BEING PRETENTIOUS. HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF THIS WAS HOW A CAR MANUFACTURER TREATED YOU? I COME FROM A FAMILY OF JEEP OWNERS AND CHRYSLER (THE MOTHER COMPANY) WOULD RATHER LOSE MY BUSINESS AND PERMIT ME TO TALK NEGATIVELY ABOUT THEM THEN STOP TO HELP ME. THEY EVEN ENCOURAGED ME TO HIT THE NET AND START SUBMITTING REVIEWS. THIS IS SORT OF CALLOUS NEGLIGENCE IS NOT WHAT ANY KIND OF CONSUMER SHOULD ENDURE. AT THIS POINT, WHAT REASON DO I HAVE TO PERFORM THE SERVICE? WHAT REASON DO I HAVE TO KEEP MY CAR? WHAT REASON DO I HAVE TO EVER SHOP WITH THEIR BRAND AGAIN?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 70 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY STOPPED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS AND THE LOWER CONTROL ARM HAD FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN: 06V288000 (SUSPENSION). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY, FOR NO APPARENT REASON, THE ESP, ABS, AND BRAKE LIGHTS ALL SARTED FLASHING AT ONCE. SINCE THEN, MY VEHICLE WOULD CONSTANTLY LOSE POWER AND STALL OUT WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE. DIAGNOSTIC CHECK INDICATED A DEFECTIVE SPEED SENSOR. IT WAS REPLACED, AND THE ISSUE CORRECTED ITSELF SOMEWHAT FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. HOWEVER...THE SAME EXACT ISSUE RETURNED. IT PROGRESSIVELY BECAME SO BAD I HAD TO REMOVE THE ABS FUSES IN ORDER TO EVEN DRIVE THE VEHICLE, THUS CREATING AN EQUALLY DANGROUS SITUATION. MY JEEP IS OUT OF WARRANTY, OF COURSE, AND I'VE READ TONS OF COMPLAINTS OF THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE, SO I AM BASICALLY (DANGEROUSLY) WAITING FOR A RECALL TO OCCUR.

GASOLINE WILL ALWAYS BLOW OUT OF THE FILLER WHEN FUELING. AT LEAST 1/4 CUP AND SOMETIMES A FULL CUP OF GASOLINE WILL BE EXPELLED AT EACH REFUELING. GASOLINE WILL BE SPRAYED ON HANDS, PANTS, SHOES, SIDE OF CAR AND ON THE GROUND. THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED OVER THE PAST YEAR.

MY JEEP WAS PART OF A RECALL IN 2012. THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WINDOW WOULDN'T GO UP OR DOWN. L-27 REAR CONTROL ARMS WERE REPLACED. 02-L2-71-82 REAR CONTROL ARMS AND CBFZL270AA ARM LOWER CONTROL. THE SAME THING HAPPED RECENTLY, BUT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR. CAN YOU HELP ME GET THE WINDOW FIXED AS PART OF THE RECALL IN 2012?

MY ANTI SKID, ABS, AND ESP LIGHTS ARE ON. THE CRUISE CONTROL IS NOT WORKING. ALSO, AT ABOUT 50 MPH, MY FRONT END ACTS UP. I AM TOLD THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE CLOCK SPRING.

BALL JOINTS BROKE ON DRIVERS SIDE.

WHEN FILLING CAR WITH GAS ON LEVELED SURFACES. THE CAR WILL BURP FUEL OUT THE FILLING NECK SPILLING OUT ON THE ROAD AND GRASS. SPOKE TO A LOCAL DODGE AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NO FIX FOR IT BUT IT IS AN ISSUE.

CAR CAN NOT BE PLACED IN PARK AND HAVE IT STAY THERE, KEY WILL NOT COME OUT

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION 30 MPH. FRONT PASSENGER SIDE MADE A GRINDING NOISE AND ENTIRE VEHICLE SHOOK. LOST COMPLETE STEERING CONTROL AND CROSSED 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC BEFORE BRINGING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP. VEHICLE WAS IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE AND CROSSED OVER 3 LANES BEFORE STOPPING. LOCATION WAS ON A CITY STREET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BALL JOINT FRACTURED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BALL JOINT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V288000 (SUSPENSION). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 154,000.

RH LOWER BALL JOINT BROKE TODAY. CAR IS IMMOBILE. THIS BALL JOINT WAS REPLACED ONE YEAR AGO, WHEN IT FIRST FAILED. THE LH ONE ALSO BROKE 6 MONTHS AGO. ALL 3 FAILURES WHERE IN PARKING LOTS. MY LIBERTY'S VIN IS NOT IN THE RECALL RANGE. JEEP REFUSES TO TALK TO ME. THEIR EXPLANATION ABOUT WATER ANT CORROSION IS NOT TECHNICALLY VALID. I AM AN AEROSPACE ENGINEER AND DEAL WITH THIS SORT OF THING ALL THE TIME. THE CAUSE IS CYCLIC LOADING OF THE TAPERED PIN, HIGH TENSION LOAD AND A STRESS RISER AT THE THREAD. REPLACING THE BALL JOINT ONLY PROVIDES MORE FAILURE OPPORTUNITIES. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE NUMBER OF DEATHS AND INJURIES THIS HAS CAUSED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME CHRISTMAS MORNING AND A FEW MILES BEFORE I GOT HOME THE LOWER AND HIGHER BALL JOINTS SEPARATED FROM EACH OTHER. I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, THANKFULLY THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE ON THE ROAD WITH ME. I WAS HEADED STRAIGHT ON ROAD WHEN INCIDENT HAPPENED. VEHICLE BOUNCED MANY TIMES BEFORE COMING TO A STOP OFF THE ROAD. I WAS INFORMED LATER AFTER INCIDENT THAT THIS VEHICLE HAD A RECALL FOR WHAT I HAD JUST DESCRIBED ABOVE. VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT USED FROM DEALERSHIP AND HAVE NO RECORD OR INFO IF THIS RECALL BEING FIXED. *TR

I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVE WAY AND THE AND MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. MY BALL JOINT BROKE OFF AND MY TIRE FELL OFF MY CAR. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THE BALL JOINT HAD RUSTED WHICH CAUSED IT TO BREAK. HE INSPECTED THE OTHER FRONT WHEEL AND SAID IT IS IN THE SAME CONDITION AND IS READY TO BREAK. I TALKED TO CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID THEY HAD A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM WHICH WAS CALLED A F-23 BUT MY CAR WAS 23 DAYS OUTSIDE OF THIS RECALL DATE AND THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME. I LIFE IN FLORIDA, SO WHY ARE THESE BALL JOINTS RUSTING AWAY. THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY INSTEAD OF MY DRIVEWAY. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHER JEEP OWNERS. [XXX]. I WILL BE GETTING THE BAD PARTS FROM MY MECHANIC WHEN THE REPAIRS ARE COMPLETED. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I WAS SUFFOCATING UNTIL THE AIRBAG EXPLODED CAUSING CUTS TO MY HANDS HOLDING STEERING WHEEL. A CUT OR SLASH ABOVE MY LEFT BROW ABRAISIONS TO MY NOSE CUT ON FACE AND UPPER LIP BRUISED CHEST FOR 5-6 WEEKS OF PAIN & EXPLOSION BLEW OUT THE BACK OF A FRONT TOOTH CROWN & LOOSENED 3 OTHER FRONT TEETH AS WELL AS CRACKING MY BRIDGE TO THE UPPER RIGHT IF MY MOUTH! RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE 2 DAYS AGO REGARDING THE AIRBAG I WAS FURIOUS! NOBODY COULD UNDERSTAND HOW I SUFFERRED ALL THOSE INJURIES. MY INSURANCE DID NOT COVER MEDICAL. I WAS TOTALLY BED RIDDEN FOR THE FIRST 10 DAYS. I COULD BARELY BREATHE AND OR MOVE! I DID NOT GO TO EMERGENCY I COULDNT AFFORD TO PAY THE BILLS. I WILL HAVE DENTAL MARCH 2017. I HAVE BEEN ON STATE DISABILITY SINCE 2005 AND I'M FINANCIALLY LIMITED . THANK GOD MY SISTER AND NEIGHBORS HELPED ME THANK YOU REPECTFULLY ; AGNES CRAIG 3221 MATTERHORN WAY. CERES, CA. 95307.I ALMOST FORGOT MY LOWER RIGHT MOLAR HAD A PIN FROM ROOT CANAL AND THE ENTIRE CROWN SHATTERED AND FELL OUT OF M I COULD HAVE LOST MORE THAN BLOWN OUT TEETH CROWN & BRIDGE. CUTS AND TRAMA TO MY HANDS FACE ARMS IT WAS EXTREMELY TRAMATIZING. I LOOKED HORRIBLE 2 BLACK EYES CUTS ON FACE SCRAPE MARKS BUMPED BRUISED STILL CANT EAT NORMAL FOOD WITHOUT DISCOMFORT & PAIN. I SEE THE SCARS. I USE ALOT OF MAKE UP. IM DEPRESSED AND DRIVING IS NOT AS ENJOYABLE. IT WAS DARK RAINY AND DRIVING IN NARROW 2 WAY TRAFFIC SWERVED TO MISS A DOG OR COYOTE? THEN WENT OFF THE ROAD ROLLING DOWN A DITCH COMING TO A STOP BY A TREE. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 15 - 20 MPH. I AM 411 AND WAS AT FIRST PINNED AND SUFFOCATING MY CHEST WAS BADLY BRUISED FOR WEEKS HURTING EVEN TO BREATH I WAS LITERALLY BED RIDDEN AND OUT OF SIGHT FOR THE FIRST 10 DAYS. TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW INGIT SO CUT UP BANGED UP BRUISED.

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, THERE IS ALMOST ALWAYS OVERFLOW THAT SPILLS OUT OF THE NOZZLE ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE PAVEMENT. I WOULD ESTIMATE THIS HAPPENS ABOUT 80% OF THE TIME I FILL UP.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY 2006. EVERY TIME I PUT FUEL IN IT, IT OVERFLOWS. IT IS NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUTTING.OFF THEREFORE SPILLING OVER AND GETTING ALL OVER THE CAR OR ME. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I TRIED FILLING UP AT A FEW DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND IT IS THE SAMERTHNG. ON THE INTERNET IT IS SHOWING MANY PEOPLE HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THIS WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL? I AM AFRAID SOMEONE WILL THROW A CIGARETTE OUT THEIR WINDOW AND I WILL BLOW UP. I WIPE IT.UP EACH TIME.

JEEP WINDOW REGULATOR ON REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR SUDDENLY FAILED FOR NO OBVIOUS REASON. WINDOW JUST FELL INSIDE THE DOOR WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED AND THE ENTIRE SYSTEM MUST BE REPLACED.

JSS

WHEN FILLING THE TANK WITH FUEL, THE PUMP DOES NOT SHUT OFF, AND THE FUEL FILLER TUBE BELCHES FUEL ONTO THE SIDE OF THE TRUCK AND THE GROUND. THIS CAUSES A FIRE SAFETY ISSUE, THE FUEL DAMAGES PAINT AND PLASTICS ON THE VEHICLE, IT IS WASTEFUL, AND IS HAZARDOUS TO THE ENVIRONMENT.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. A CO WORKER TOLD ME MY TAIL LIGHT WAS OUT AND THE NEXT DAY I LOOKED AT IT AND TRIED TO REPLACE THE BULB BUT THE BULB WAS MELTED AND BROKEN INSIDE THE LENS. THE BULB WAS MELTED TO A PIECE OF PLASTIC INSIDE...TO SOME TYPE OF FIN. THIS IS THE DRIVER SIDE TAIL LIGHT. I ALSO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY EARLIER THIS YEAR. I REPLACED THE BULB 3 TIMES BEFORE I FIGURED OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. NOW THE SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURED WITH THE DRIVER SIDE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THE BULB MELTED TO THAT FIN INSIDE THE ASSEMBLY AND COULD NOT BE REMOVED TO REPLACE THE BULB. I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY AGAIN, WHICH IS VERY EXPENSIVE AT $130 EACH PLUS THE BULBS. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE...OR A WRECK SINCE MY BRAKE LIGHTS DID NOT WORK UNTIL THIS TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY WAS SPECIAL ORDERED AND RELACED, WHICH TOOK A COUPLE OF DAYS TO RECEIVE. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS LIKE A DEFECT.

SHIFTER MOVES FREELY BETWEEN PARK-REVERSE-NEUTRAL-DRIVE-2ND-1ST GEARS. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON AND OFF; AND WITH OR WITHOUT A KEY IN THE IGNITION. IF THE SHIFTER IS BUMPED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE CAN BE THROWN INTO REVERSE AND/OR PARK. WHEN I CONTACTED THE JEEP DEALER IN SPRINGFIELD MISSOURI, I WAS TOLD THAT JEEP HAS SINCE REDESIGNED THE SHIFTER CONTROL AND THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED. COST FOR THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLE IS APPROXIMATELY $480 PLUS LABOR. IF THE PROBLEM IS SO APPARENT THAT IT CAN BE FOUND THOUSANDS OF TIMES USING GOOGLE, AND IF THE MANUFACTURER HAS SINCE REDESIGNED THE ENTIRE SHIFTER CONTROL SYSTEM; THEN ONE WOULD THINK THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE ISSUED A RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL BANGING NOISE UNDER THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT LOWER BALL JOINTS FAILED AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V288000 (SUSPENSION). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000. UPDATED 11/01/16*LJ

THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURE AS LISTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V288000 (SUSPENSION); HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.

SINCE I BROUGHT THE CAR IN 2008 AT TIMES THE INTERIOR DASH LIGHT AND HEAD LIGHTS FLICKER ALSO THE AIR BAG LIGHT ALL THE SUDDEN STAYS ON. I HAVE INTERMEDIATE NO START AT THIS TIME SO I CAN'T REALLY USE THE CAR. I BELIEVE THIS MIGHT BE AN ELECTRONIC ISSUE.

I OWN A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY MADE FOR EXPORT. I LIVE IN MEXICO. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN MEXICO. I HAVE READ ABOUT THE RECALL FOR THIS MODEL YEAR BECAUSE OF THE FUEL TANK PROBLEMS. I NEED THE NAME AND ADDRESS OF A JEEP DEALER IN GUADALAJARA, MEXICO WHERE THEY CAN PUT THE TRAILER HITCH ON AT NO COST FOR PARTS AND LABOR. MY E-MAIL IS: [XXX] I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE ME. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH TO 70 MPH, THE ENGINE OF THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY, WITHOUT WARNING, WITH THE LOSS OF ALL STEERING OR CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. ON TWO OTHER OCCASIONS, THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY, WITHOUT WARNING, WITH THE LOSS OF ANY STEERING OR CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE, AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY AND ENTERING CITY TRAFFIC. THAT IS A TOTAL OF FOUR ENGINE SHUT DOWNS OR STALLS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. WE JUST BOUGHT THE VEHICLE, AND THIS IS NERVE-WRECKING AND DANGEROUS TO SAY THE LEAST. THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN AFTER DRIVING LONG DISTANCES, AND HAS HAPPENED FROM DRIVING DISTANCES OF APPROXIMATELY 90 MILES TO 160 MILES. IF YOU WAIT APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR, THE VEHICLE WILL THEN START UP AGAIN AND RUN. BUT IT WILL STALL AGAIN WITH COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER. OTHERS ON THE INTERNET HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM WITH JEEP 3.7 AND 4.7 POWERTECH JEEP MOTORS. OUR JEEP IS A 3.7 MOTOR. THIS APPEARS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM AS JEEP EXPERIENCED WITH JEEP COMMANDER AND JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE MODELS, WHICH WERE RECALLED. THIS SITUATION CAN OBVIOUSLY BE LIFE THREATENING. CHRYSLER JEEP SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PUT LIFE TREATING VEHICLES ON THE MARKET AND THESE JEEPS MUST BE RECALLED. WE ASK FOR YOUR HELP IN THIS MATTER BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED.

YESTERDAY, THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW SLID INTO DOOR, WILL NOT COME UP. CAN HEAR REGULATOR BUT WINDOW IS STUCK IN DOOR. VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, ALL WINDOWS WERE UP, AND ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATER THE WINDOW HAD DISAPPEARED INTO THE DOOR. I CALLED CHRYSLER BUT THE VIN IS NOT PART OF CHRYSLER'S NOTICE TO OWNER'S IN 2010 REGARDING FAULTY WINDOW REGULATORS.
