2007 Jeep Liberty Complaint Log

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ATTEMPTING TO MERGE OFF THE HIGHWAY, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED BACK INJURIES, WHIPLASH, AND OTHER UNKNOWN INJURIES. THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED BACK INJURIES AND WHIPLASH. BOTH OCCUPANTS REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE, A FIRE ERUPTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FLAMES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. YEARS AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V252000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, STRUCTURE). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. ...UPDATED 10/20/15 *BF *CN

EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GASOLINE IT SPITS BACK A PINT OR MORE DOWN THE SIDE OF THE BODY WHEN THE AUTO SHUTOFF TRIPS. I SEE THIS AS A SAFETY HAZARD, A WASTE OF EXPENSIVE FUEL, AND DAMAGING TO THE ENVIRONMENT. *TR

DEFECTIVE REGULATORS ON 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. DEALER WANTS $600 TO FIX A KNOWN DEFECT. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY REAR WINDOW FELL DOWN INTO DOOR SPONTANEOUSLY AS WE ARE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH CHILDREN IN THE REAR SEATS. DEFECTIVE WINDOW MECHANISM. *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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE PARKED, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WHEN SHE HEARD A LOUD GRINDING NOISE AND THE WINDOW WOULD NOT CLOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS. THE TECHNICIANS REPLACED THE WINDOW REGULATOR UNDER A GOODWILL CLAIM. AFTER THE REPAIR, THE SAME FAILURE OCCURRED ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A MANUFACTURER'S RECALL FOR THE WINDOW LIFT PLATE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND ADVISED THAT THE RECALL DID NOT COVER THE WINDOW REGULATOR. THE RECALL DID NOT SPECIFY WHICH WINDOW WOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

MY COMPLAINT RELATES TO MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE POWER WINDOWS. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 3 DIFFERENT WINDOWS SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW ALMOST 3 NEWS AGO. THE POWER WINDOWS FAIL TO WORK AND THE WINDOW DROPS DOWN INTO THE DOOR. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE WINDOW REGULATORS BREAK AND WINDOWS FALL DOWN AND CAN'T BE RAISED. IT APPEARS THE REGULATORS NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $500 PER WINDOW. *TR

PURCHASED 07 JEEP LIBERTY 4/10 ON 6/10 THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR DUE TO A BROKEN WINDOW LIFT OR REGULATOR. ON 3/12 THE PASS SIDE WINDOW FELL HALF WAY DOWN DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEM. ITS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE PARTS AS SO MANY VEHICLES HAVE HAD THE SAME THE SAME PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL YEARS YET CHRYSLER JEEP STILL WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL. *TR

3RD INCIDENT IN 6MO, WINDOW FALLS OFF TRACK INTO DOOR AND HAS TO BE REPLACED, COST OVER $500 TO FIX, NOT COVERED BY JEEP? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE BELIEVED THE FAILURE TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT BECAUSE ALL FOUR REGULATORS FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 103,000 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. UPDATED 11/29/11 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE DAY SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, EVEN BEFORE SHE DROVE OFF THE LOT, THE WINDOW FELL DOWN. THE DEALER GAVE THE CONSUMER A LOANER VEHICLE, WHILE THEY FIXED HERS AND FOUR DAYS LATER WHEN SHE RETURNED TO PICK UP HER VEHICLE, THE REAR WINDOW HAD FALLEN DOWN. A FEW WEEKS LATER, THE DRIVER'S WINDOW FAILED AGAIN. THE CONSUMER STATED ONLY ONE WINDOW WORKS. UPDATED 12/07/11

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

I HAVE NOW HAD 3 OF MY WINDOWS FALL DOWN INTO THE DOORS RESULTING IN EXTREMELY COSTLY REPAIRS IN MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. UPON READING MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS I SEE CHRYSLER IS QUITE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. IT IS VERY SCARY WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND IT HAPPENS. I AM VERY THANKFUL THIS DID NOT CAUSE A SEVERE MISHAP, BUT THE POTENTIAL IS THERE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START UNTIL AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE BATTERY AND BATTERY CONNECTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000. UPDATED 08/27/14*LJ UPDATED 09/3/2014 *JS

FOR THE FOURTH TIME THE POWER WINDOW REGULATORS ON MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY HAVE BROKEN ONE BY ONE, THE VEHICLE'S WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED AND JEEP WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DEFECT. DURING WARRANTY PERIOD ALL REGULATORS WERE REPLACED ONE BY ONE AND NOW MY PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW IS BROKEN AGAIN AND I CAN HEAR THE OTHER WINDOWS THAT ARE ABOUT READY TO GIVE IN AGAIN. *TR

IN MAY OF 2010 THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED, WINDOW FELL TO BOTTOM OF DOOR. ABOUT A MONTH LATER THE FRONT DRIVERS REGULATOR FELL, THEN A WEEK LATER THE REAR DRIVER SIDE FAILED ON A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. HAVE CALLED AND LEFT MESSAGES FOR THE AREA SERVICE REP AND HAVE NEVER BEEN CALLED BACK. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY WINDOW JUST FALLS INTO THE DOOR FRAME. HAVE HAD 2 REGULATORS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY NOW A THIRD ONE JUST BROKE. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 31,000 MILES ON IT. THE DEALER ADVISED IT WOULD COST $520.00 TO REPAIR IT. APPARENTLY, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LEFT REAR WINDOW FELL AJAR AND WOULD NOT RETURN TO THE CLOSED POSITION. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR PANEL. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE WINDOWS WOULD BE REPLACED WITH A NEWLY DESIGNED WINDOW ISSUED BY THE MANUFACTURER AS A RESULT OF SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE OLDER DESIGN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 55,000. UPDATED 10/21/10. *LJ THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD HESITATE AROUND 35 MPH. UPDATED 10/25/10

MY WINDOW REGULATOR KEEPS BREAKING ALLOWING MY WINDOWS TO FALL INTO THE DOOR FRAME. I WILL BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HEAR A LOAD NOISE AND LOOK AND SEE THAT ONE OF MY WINDOWS HAS FALLEN AGAIN. MY YOUNG SON LIKES TO STICK HIS HAND OUT THE WINDOW WHEN IT FALLS AND IT WORRIES ME THAT HIS HAND COULD HIT SOMETHING OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY CAR 3 TIMES AND THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT IT WASN'T A SAFETY ISSUE. 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. NOW THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS WRONG FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND SOMETHING THE MANUFACTURER COULDN'T FIX WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. *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. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS WILL IT TAKE BEFORE THEY ISSUE A RECALL? [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

RANDOM EVENTS OF THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LAMP FLASHING AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LAMP ILLUMINATING. THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL TO A ROUGH IDLE OR LOSS OF POWER AND AN INABILITY TO ACCELERATE. ON OCCASION THE VEHICLE WOULD DIE AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THIS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 65 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON HOT SPRING DAYS. THE MANUFACTURE HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AFTER FIVE ATTEMPTS. *TR

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

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. I HAVE HAD 2 SEPARATE WINDOW REGULATORS FAIL ON 2 SEPARATE WINDOWS. THE 2ND TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY. THE WINDOW SLID DOWN AND SEEMED TO CAUSE ISSUES WITH THE DOOR. THE DOOR CAME PRATICALLY OPEN BUT MAINTAINED A CATCH ON THE DOOR HOOK. I HAD TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. LUCKILY THERE WAS NOT A WRECK. I WAS TOLD THERE HAVE BEEN ALOT OF COMPLAINTS WITH THIS REGULATOR PROBLEM BUT I HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED. THE WINDOW NOR THE DOOR WERE BEING USED AS NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THAT SEAT. *TR

WINDOW CARRIER ON REAR PASSENGER WINDOW JEEP LIBERTY FAILED WHILE IN A CAR WASH. THIS RESULTED IN WINDOW FALLING IN ITS TRACK WITH THE CONSEQUENT IMPACT OF BABY IN CAR SEAT EXPOSED TO SOAP, LIQUID, AND ASSOCIATED PERILS OF BRUSHES AND POISONS. THIS IS SECOND IDENTICAL FAILURE OF POWER WINDOW REGULATOR ON MY VEHICLE AND IS VERY VERY COMMON AS REPORTED IN MANY INTERNET FORUMS. VEHICLE IS 2007 JEEP LIBERTY WITH ONLY 8500 MILES ON IT AND THE REAR WINDOWS ARE VERY INFREQUENTLY USED OR OPENED - MAYBE 20 TIMES IN THE ENTIRE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE WHICH I HAVE HAD SINCE NEW!! CLEARLY THE ISSUE IS THAT THE SCREW DRIVE WORM IN THE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR IS MADE OF NYLON AND NOT STEEL. I HAVE NOW TEMPORARILY FIXED ONE SIDE WINDOW WITH A DESIGN OF MY OWN INCORPORATING A STEEL SPRING WINDING AND WANT CHRYSLER TO SUPPLY ME WITH FOUR NEW REGULATORS SO THAT I CAN MODIFY ALL WINDOWS TO AN ACCEPTABLE SAFE STANDARD. *TR

POWER WINDOWS FAILURE ON JEEP LIBERTY 2007. REAR WINDOWS HAVE FAILED MORE THAN 6-7 TIMES OVER LAST 60000KMS . AND IT KEEPS HAPPENING. REAR WINDOWS ARE RARELY USED .THE WINDOW JUST SLIDS DOWN AND EXPOSES THE CAR TO THIEFS. ONCE THE WINDOW FAILS, A CABLE IN THE WINDOW ASSEMBLY JAMS THE DOOR LOCKING SYSTEM AND CANNOT SECURELY CLOSE THE DOORS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDOWS FAILED TO ROLL UP AND ROLL DOWN AS DESIGNED. THE CONTACT HAD THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW REPLACED AT YOUNGBLOOD AUTO GROUP (3410 S CAMPBELL AVE, SPRINGFIELD, MO 65807, (417) 882-3838) HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE FRONT AND REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE WINDOWS ALSO EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE. THE CONTACT USED AN OBJECT TO KEEP WINDOWS IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WAS DEACTIVATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

WINDOWS WILL BECOME STUCK IN THE DOWN POSITION. I HAVE HAVE THE FRONT 2 WINDOWS FIXED ALREADY, THE DRIVER SIDE TWICE AND THE PASSENGER SIDE ONCE. NOW, THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW HAS BECOME STUCK DOWN. I HEAR THE MOTOR TURNING IN THE DOOR, BUT IT WILL NOT COME BACK UP. MY CHILD (3 YEARS OLD) SITS IN THAT SEAT AND SO IT IS EVEN MORE CONCERNING TO ME.

LEFT REAR WINDOW FAILURE UP OR DOWN; DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW STILL WORKS BUT CATCHES. IT APPEARS THAT SOMEONE DIDN'T DO THEIR JOB IN QUALITY CONTROL IN MAKING THE EQUIPMENT THAT REGULATES THE WINDOWS. WHICH MAKES ONE WONDER IF THERE AREN'T OTHER PARTS NOT UP TO STANDARD. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO REPLACE AT THEIR COST. *TR

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

ALL FOUR OF MY WINDOWS HAVE FAILED IN MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE DRIVER'S DOOR FAILED 3/8/10 AND WAS REPAIRED ON 3/10/10 FOR $439.69. SINCE THEN THE OTHER 3 HAVE NOW FAILED, RIGHT SIDE REAR PASSENGER JULY 18, 2010; LEFT SIDE REAR PASSENGER SEPTEMBER 21, 2010 AND NOW THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW TODAY, OCTOBER 13, 2010. I AM THE ONLY PERSON IN THE VEHICLE 95% OF THE TIME. RARELY DO I HAVE PASSENGERS GETTING IN AND OUT OF MY CAR, SO THE AMOUNT OF TIME THESE DOORS ARE OPENED AND CLOSED ON A REGULAR BASIS IS VERY LOW. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW IN FEBRUARY OF 2007 AND THESE SHOULD NOT BE FAILING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW GLASS SLID INSIDE THE DOOR WITHOUT ASSISTANCE. THE WINDOW WAS MANUALLY MOVED TO AN UPWARD POSITION AND SECURED WITH TAPE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE PART WAS ORDERED FOR THE REPAIR. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERED THE REGULATOR. THE REAR WINDOW WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SERVICE WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,300.

HAVE HAD 5 WINDOW REGULATORS TO BREAK ALLOWING WINDOW TO FALL INSIDE DOOR.THE LAST ONE WAS DURING BAD WEATHER NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. *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

I HAVE OWNED THIS JEEP FOR LESS THAN A YEAR AND HAVE HAD 3 WINDOW REGULATORS BREAK IN THAT TIME. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD ONE REPLACED AT THE LOCAL DEALER AT THE COST OF @ $600. IT HAPPENS WHEN ROLLING THE WINDOW UP OR DOWN THE CABLE BREAKS AWAY FROM THE PLASTIC PIECE ON THE WINDOW. *TR

TWO PREVIOUS REAR WINDOW FAILURES AND A THIRD THURSDAY FEB. 04 , 2010 . I HAVE NOT CONTACTED THE DEALER FOR THIS LATEST FAILURE , I AM OUT OF WARRANTY AND THIS IS A EXPENSIVE FIX . PARK MY VECHICLE IN FRONT OF MY HOME ALL WINDOWS UP , MY WIFE COMES HOME AND INFORMS ME MY RIGHT REAR WINDOW IS ALL THE DOWN . WINDOW WOULD NOT RIGHT IT SELF WHEN ENGAGED THE ENGINE AND THE WINDOW UP CONTROL . *CN

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

FOR THE 3RD TIME, THE WINDOW OF MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY HAS STOPPED WORKING AND IS DROPPING INTO THE DOOR! IN FACT, AT THIS MOMENT, THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND REAR WINDOWS ARE DROPPING INTO THE DOOR AND THE MOTOR WILL NOT WORK. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED TO MY DRIVER SIDE FRONT WINDOW, THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. NOW IT IS NOT AND I AM MAD!!!!! CHRYSLER JEEP NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM, FIX ALL WINDOWS ONCE AND FOR ALL SO WE HAVE PEACE OF MIND WHILE WE DRIVE! *TR

POWER WINDOW REGULATORS KEEP BREAKING---VERY COSTLY REPAIR ONCE WARRANTY EXPIRES! WINDOWS FALL DOWN AND CANNOT BE RAISED WITHOUT SERVICE. THIS IS THE FOURTH INCIDENT. MANY OWNERS ARE IN NEED OF A PERMANENT FIX. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR

WE HAVE A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY AND THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IN 2 YEARS THAT WE WILL HAVE TO HAVE A WINDOW REGULATOR REPLACED. MY WIFE AND I CAME BACK TO THE CAR AND FOUND THE WINDOW DOWN ABOUT 3" WHEN WE TRIED TO ROLL IT BACK UP NOTHING HAPPENED. WE ATTEMPTED TO TAKE IT IN AROUND THE END OF OCTOBER BECAUSE IT WAS MAKING A GRINDING NOISE, BUT THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE TIME TO FIX IT THAT DAY. NOW OUR WARRANTY IS EXPIRED AND WE WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR. I FEEL JEEP NEEDS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND RECALL THESE REGULATORS. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY DRIVER'S WINDOW BINDS AND WON'T CLOSE. DEALER SAID WINDOW NEEDS A NEW REGULATOR AND HE HAD TO REPLACE A FEW A MONTH ON THIS MODEL CAR. *TR

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

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 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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL SPILLED TO THE GROUND WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS NOT FILLED TO CAPACITY TO PREVENT THE FUEL FROM SPILLING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATED FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW IN FRONT MADE A LOUD NOISE AND WENT DOWN WHEN ROLLING DOWN POWER WINDOW. THEN ONE BY ONE EACH OF MY TRUCKS WINDOW DID THE SAME THING. NONE OF THE WINDOWS WILL ROLL BACK UP. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP SHE WAS AWARE TOLD ME THIS HAPPENS TO ALL OF THOSE TYPES OF VEHICLES AND WHEN I REPLACE THEM MORE THAN LIKELY IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. TO FIX THE REGULATORS IN ALL FOUR WINDOWS WILL BE 350-500 PER WINDOW TO REPAIR. THE REGULATOR FROM WHAT I UNDERSTOOD IS A SMALL PLASTIC PIECE IN THESE SPECIFIC TRUCKS THAT BREAK ALL THE TIME.
