2005 JEEP Liberty

Rear passenger window regulator broken. Window will not open or close

fuel overflow on filling at gas station. Gas Pump does not shut off when tank is full and fuel expells from the filler neck down the vehicle.

I am an ASE certified technician and have inspected the emissions/evap/venting of this vehicle and verified there are no problems.

The horn in the car started blaring. I thought it was the security system, but I feel it is the horn because even if I do not lock the car, the horn starts. Took it to several mechanics who state it is the TIPM and only dealers can work on it. I refuse to take it to the dealer as I have been given incorrect advise from them in the past. I\'ve read that numerous Jeep Liberty people have this same problem. The wires to the horn are turned off; otherwise, the car would be blaring 24/7 and the battery will die again. I cannot drive the car as is as it would be dangerous to be on the road without a working horn. What can I do???

Headed to our son\'s college graduation driving down I-75 south of Atlanta, GA and the rear passenger window just dropped into the door. Had to stop to borrow a coat hanger to get the window back up then buy duct tape to hold it in place. Was nearly late for the graduation ceremony. Will have to take time off from work to take the car in for repair.

“Salt Belt” State restrictions have excluded states that also use salt in regard to the the 2012 L27 recall for the Rear Control Arm due to rust and corrosion on Jeep Liberty. My control arm fractured due to excessive rust and corrosion and risked lives because Nebraska was excluded from the recall!

My lights, tail, plate, brake and brake on back window blow out ALOT, I have been pulled over by police twice for the same reason.
My fuel runs out when fueling cost money and causes safety hazzards because fuel is left on the ground and left on my jeep!

Fuel tank overflows (gushes gasoline everywhere) when filling the gas tank.

For the past 3 years I have not been able to fill my gas tank because the tank doesn’t register full and the gas keeps on coming. Even though I know it will overflow I sometimes don’t time it right and it gushes out. It makes me VERY angry and smelling like gas. I have told the dealer about it but they say nothing is wrong…. I can see something is wrong, not to mention wasteful, dangerous and expensive!

About 2 years ago the fuel tank all of a sudden started overflowing every time I try to fill up my tank. There is no automatic shut off. I can’t afford to get it fixed so my best solution has been to “guesstimate” how much fuel I can put in the car without it overflowing (which obviously results in never having a completely full tank). I have to deal with this 2x/week with every fuel fill up.

The gas tank leaks each time I try to fill it up, causing gas to spew out of the gas tank and onto the ground, back onto the gas pump, and all over the car.

Fuel overflows during fill ups, every time unless done manually.

Bought my Jeep new October 3, 2005, kept it regularly maintained at the dealership. On January 29, 2014 had to have the Jeep towed to the dealership, it lost all power while driving it. The service department ran a diagnostic test, which cost $69.50, only to find out the engine was blown.

Is anyone concerned about the recall over the exploding gas tanks? I have tried to get my jeep in to a dealership to have the hitch put on and Chrysler has told me that the parts are not in and they don’t know when they will be in. It could be up to a year. Meanwhile, my son is driving this vehicle at college. Chrysler said the chance of an accident is very remote. My thoughts are, “Do I want to take the gamble that my son won’t be rear ended in a crash?” Upon more research I found that Clarence Ditlow from the Center for Auto Safety said that the trailer hitch is a sham to quiet the public and is not effective in preventing explosions and fire in rear accidents.

body and frame: The front suspension control arm was rotted almost right through, mechanic said it never should have happened. Paid full price $645.15
recall on – The rear suspension lower control arms, made of cheap metal that can corrode break and cause accident. Probably the same metal I paid over $600 for the front but this is a recall will be serviced June 27, 2013
Transfer case had to be completely replaced, it cost me $160.03 and my warranty covered the rest. Warranty I paid for privately not through Chrysler.
Rear end was replaced twice and covered again mostly by my private warranty (Lubrico) I only have bills for $253.12 cannot find the other bill
I am also very concerned about the recall that is trying to be put through for my Liberty on the gas tank being behind the rear axle and causing fire or explosion on rear impact. I am not a mechanic and trust the auto makers with the safety of myself and my family, if I had ever have know there was an avoidable risk like this I never, ever would have bought this vehicle. I am extremely upset and believe if Chrysler had any decency they would recall these vehicles immediately.

Rear window regulators are faulty and result in windows “dropping” without being able to raise. Jeep will not admit to me that this is a problem, though every Liberty owner of ’04 through ’06 models has experienced this several times.

FUEL SPEWS OUT AT END OF FILL UP, FUEL SPEWED OUT BEFORE 1 GALLON AND RIGHT AFTER 1 GALLON, I NOW HAVE TO SLOWLY TRICKLE IT IN TO FILL OR RISK GETTING SPLASHED

My case is currently active with Chrysler but they are not returning any calls regarding my suspension involving the upper right and left control arms and sway bar links and bushings, etc. They did finally address the ball joint issue and replaced the lower ball joints as a recall. The estimated repair for the control arms and sway bar links is $1500. The replacement of the ball joints did not resolve the noise and safety concerns while driving. The Jeep is making winding and grinding noises on the front driver’s side. My case manager at Chrysler originally told me that they would be covered along with the ball joints but then stated that it was a miscommunication. I also had a window regulator repaired for $106 at the same time. They kept my car for several days while the dealer and Chrysler debated over the ball joint repair because it had already been performed once in 2006. It was finally decided that it would be done again as a repeat recall after much back and forth and I was without transportation during this time. Now that I have the Jeep back, it continues to make the same noises as before after I was told that the control arms and sway bar links would be included in the recall. I was told by my service rep at the dealer that this is not normal wear and tear but supposedly the service manager is telling Chrysler that it is. This seems highly unusual since I have not ever been off road in it and it has not been on salty roads since I’m in Florida. I would like for this to be resolved before it results in an accident since it seems like a simple repair and a safety concern that Chrysler is aware of due to similar complaints that did result in accidents. They should be replacing more than just the ball joints if the control arms and sway bar links are also failing. Any assistance with my case would be greatly appreciated. The last time that I tried to follow up with my case manager I was told that he did not work on Wednesdays but that someone would get back to me. I told them that if I did not hear back from them as promised that I would start filing complaints. Thank you, Monica Barronton

The fuel tank on my 2005 Liberty spews gas when the tank is full. Hundreds of Chrysler vehicles have this problem, and Chrysler should be responsible to fix it as a safety issue, warranty or not. They have offered to replace mine, if I pay a $500.00 copay, which I’ve rejected. They’ve been getting away with this for years.

VEHICLE LOCKS THE BRAKES. Vehicle started to lock the brakes immediately after purchase Sep 9, 2004. By Oct 15, 2004 dealer had attempted to repair vehicle 4 times wihtout luck when it locked the breaks, overheated the transmission, and brakes stopped working. Car has been in the shop since Oct 15, 2004. Chrysler refuses to repurchase vehicle.

The problems are so many stemming from one source being the vehicles computer system. In Nov of 05′, the vehicle’s engine began running rough while I was on the highway. The vehicle would then “Jerk” while I was at 65mph. It’s as if someone slams on your breaks during high speed. The vehicle ended up finally stalling out in Feb of 06′. While driving on the highway late at night, the vehicle turned itself off while I was driving at a high speed. The lights and radio were still on. I veered off of the highway as fast as I could to avoid being hit by a semi behind me.It reminded me of what a kill switch would do when engaged.The vehicle was in shop for 4 1/2 days. This scenerio repeated itslef many more times through the months along with: car alarm unexpectedly going off while I’m sitting at a traffic light, vehicle decelerating while I’m trying to accelerate, the air conditioner pulling itself away from the vehicle(the service technicians at Jeep were speechless when they had seen what had happened). When the vehicle would be driven into the dealer,not towed, the computers could never detect a problem unless the car would be towed in after it has stalled. I now know that the computer will reboot and temporarily fix the problem when I would turn it off and on. I can send copies of all invoices. The vehicle has been in the shop on and off since Feb 06′ until today Oct 17 2006 an estimated 65 business days, not including weekends. I just took my vehicle in today and left it in the shop again. It is a vicious cycle. I AM CURRENTLY PURSING THE MATTER LEGALLY.

The first incident happened in March 2005 about 60 miles east of El Paso, Tx. on I-10. The jeep had about 4000 miles on it. The second incident happened on 4/4/06 about 60 miles west of Tallahassee, FL also on I-10, and the jeep had about 18000 miles on it. Don\’t forget that the Jeep had been towed – before the first incident about 5500 miles and at the time of the second incident another 1500 miles so 8000 miles above the actual Jeep mileage. The front tires were both replaced in 3/05 and had been rotated to the rear at about 12000 miles so the front tire that blew was an older back tire – with the 18000 miles and 8000 towed miles.

Started engine on Monday, 1/28/08, heard clanking noise…took car to dealer and they said I need a new engine….oil sludge was the problem. I am now trying to prove oil changes and maintenance for warranty claim.

rear main seal replaced about 4500 miles. ERG twice replaced. too numerous to mention check engine light coming on for little things. transmission problems now. Jeep Forum list pages and pages of problems. Just like mine with build dates, trying to find a pattern of problems and when Jeep actually or if they do, know of the problems.

No power on the Diesel, 30 MPH maximum speed. Still not able to fix the problem.

CD will not eject. I would like to know if this system is still under warranty. Thank You.

2005 jeep liberty with a recall for the lower ball joints. customer states that she noticed the metal on the tires coming out. mechanic told her the ball joints were on too tight and threw the jeep out of alignment. *kb the consumer is seeking reimbursement for new tires, alignment, waste tire fee and labor. the consumer stated after the recall was performed someone should have noticed how badly the alignment was.*jb

The brake light doesn't work and the bulb has been replaced. apparently, since so many other people have reported the same problem in various forums; this is a known problem. it would seem that the contact overheats and melts into the plastic housing, causing a potential fire issue and resulting in no contact to make the light bulb work.

Front lower ball joint on right side has fell out twice, 8 months apart. both times the vehicle was in motion, going less the 20 mph. road conditions were dry, and on on regular paved road. i was driving straight on the road both times. the first time it broke, it cause my wheel to break and flatter my tire, second time it damaged my wheel but didn’t not bust through it. motor mounts have broke 2 times as week 1 week after repaired it broke the 2nd time. transmission mount has also broke.

The right front wheel/ tire separated from the suspension while driving. i was on the 5th floor of a parking garage. i was told this was directly caused by the lower ball joint failing. this was on a 2005 jeep liberty renegade. recall repairs previously performed on front lower ball joints on 04/09/2007. i no longer own this vehicle.

Like everyone else is reporting all of my upper and lower ball joints are bad on my 2005 liberty. with just over 125k miles i have been told that i have over $3,000 in repairs needed, front upper and lower ball joint, rear ball joints, front hub bearings and both front cv axles. this is the entire front suspension (rear lower ball joints were covered in a recall and were replaced after we had to have it towed in for breakage) . this is obvious a problem and jeep needs to do a recall and reimburse people for their expenses.

My front ball joint and control arm broke why driving down the road

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while driving various speeds, the vehicle stalled and lost power. the contact stated that the vehicle also lost power while idling. the dealer diagnosed that the throttle body was failing. the vin was not available. the failure mileage was 140,000.

I have called and contacted jeep hot line at 18774265337 but no luck. fuel overflows from filler after auto-shutoff of pump occurs. occurs every time fueling operations occurs regardless of fuel station. numerous complaints issue but no service bulletins or recalls. potential fire hazard.

To whom it may concern: i have a jeep liberty and i cannot drive it and i cannot get it fixed. it has been out of service for months. it was towed to my local mechanic. he tried to get a transmission several times but they were never the correct one. with the information provided by my mechanic and my research it appears jeep put the wrong transmission in my jeep liberty which explains why i cannot find one to match. jeep used the 42rle transmission from 2003-2013. the 42rle transmission has 4 connectors and a straight cross member. my transmission does not have 4 connectors and it does not have a straight cross member. therein lies the problem jeep put the wrong transmission in my jeep. also, jeep recommends putting a transmission cooler on the vehicle. why wasn't this done when it was first manufactured. the fact that the wrong transmission was used and they did not install a transmission cooler helps to explain why i have transmission problems. to me this is fraud. i did not receive what i paid for. i checked with a jeep dealer and the service manager said the 2005 jeep liberty did not come equipped with a transmission cooler. another jeep dealer provided me with a recommended list of parts to repair the problem sight unseen and it included a transmission cooler that was not installed originally. chrysler is offering a new lifetime powertrain warranty on 2006-2009 models that includes replacing powertrain components: engine, transmission and drive system including parts and labor or they will buy your vehicle back. these vehicles have the same components as the 2005 and for one year difference i receive nothing while others receive lifetime. that seems like discrimination to me. sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the driver side seat belt unlatched independently while the vehicle was in operation. the failure was persistent. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 98,000. the vin was not available.

Window regulator failing. two window regulators have failed so far. for the first time, the rear passenger window fell while the vehicle was stationary and i was closing it when a large snap was heard and it fell into the door. the second time, the rear driver window fell. i did not notice when it fell, but when i went to drive one morning it was halfway down. i thought i just forgot to roll it up, but apparently that one failed as well and got stuck halfway down. in both cases the car was stationary on a driveway, then a parking lot. luckily nothing was stolen or damaged inside. the first incident was on june 2016, the second time october 20 2016

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the front driver and passenger seat belts unbuckled independently. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the contact stated that the failure recurred on several occasions. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 110,000.

Lower front right ball joint snapped while i was driving. called jeep and they said it was recalled and replaced. i asked for a location and a service order and the would not give it to me. they keep telling me to take it to the jeep dealer which i cant because it is broke. these ball joints where recalled for breaking. now for a second time it broke and i cant get any proof that it was ever replaced

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while driving 21 mph, the contact heard an abnormal clunking noise and the steering failed without warning. the vehicle was towed to a local dealer (hill-kelly dodge, chrysler, jeep, ram located at 6171 pensacola blvd pensacola, fl 32505) where it was diagnosed that the lower ball joint and lower suspension needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure, but did not offer assistance. the failure mileage was 156,623.

Backed down driveway started on street and noticed i was turning one way and reared was going the other direction. immediately drove very slowly home. looked underneath and saw trailing arm partially snapped

When fueling vehicle as it finishes filling the gas tank it will spew gas out and over the side of the vehicle.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while turning into a driveway at approximately 2 mph, the rear control arm fractured in two without warning. the dealer was contacted (overland park dodge/jeep) and stated that there was no recall. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that there was no recall. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 130,000.

I have a 2005 jeep liberty, the back tailgate will not unlock and open up. i can unlock the window and it does lift up but the tailgate will not open.

The electrical system fails from winter to summer causing miscellaneous information to the computer, the auto can overheat, it can also clear down and open failure of gasoline. the ball joints fail truly. it happened to me in three occasions when i circulated by the city when crossing on a street, while passing a tumble, and on a terrace street. the front brake system breaks causing brake liquid leaks this is caused by the warming of parts and dirt. i saw the stain in the soil when i park in my garage and check.

When fueling, the gas tank sensor fails and causes the gas pump to not automatically stop and gas overflows. luckily i was not standing too close when this happened. also,upon stopping and ignition is off the seatbelt on the drivers side does not retract after unlatching and when getting out of the car the seatbelt gets stuck in the door.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while the vehicle was parked at the contact's residence, a fuel leak was noticed. the failure recurred several other times. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic three times. the vehicle was not diagnosed and the contact did not know what the mechanic replaced. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred several times afterwards. the vehicle was taken to the dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. the dealer stated that there were no recalls for the failure. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 91,935.

Vehicle spun out on snowy road and slid off the road at a ~120° angle to direction of travel (left road facing right and backwards) at around 45mph. struck a signpost in the driver's door, then rolled over once down a ~30° embankment to land back on wheels. side air bags did not deploy. driver suffered fractured clavicle.

Heard a scraping noise when backing out of my driveway. shifted to drive to return to driveway and noise sounded louder. it sounded like a stick or something similar was dragging under the vehicle. i looked under and saw that a portion of the frame where the rear lower control link was attached had rusted and torn loose causing the rear axle to shift to the rear. this was at the passenger side, rear. the rear control links had previously been replaced under recall but no mention was made of any observed frame rust. i inspected the driver's side and saw that a failure is beginning there also. the vehicle is not driveable.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while the contact's ex-spouse was driving 40 mph, the vehicle became uncontrollable. the vehicle swerved to the left and right across the roadway. the contact was unable to control the vehicle, veered off the road, and crashed into a ditch. the air bags failed to deploy. the driver sustained bruises to the chest caused by the seat belt. the driver did not seek medical attention. a police report was not filed. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. upon inspecting the vehicle, the contact noticed that the lower a-arm on the front passenger suspension was fractured, including the lower shock tower. the vehicle was not repaired. the vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 06v288000 (suspension). the vehicle was repaired per the recall prior to the crash. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 153,480.

Window fell into door and is preventing the door from opening. broke window regulator like so many other people have complained about. my daughter was driving the car and said the window just fell. i have the window up with a wedge to keep it from falling again. luckily the window did not break.

Rear control arms rusted and one broke completely in two sending me into the oncoming lane. luckily i was on a city street with a low mph and i was traveling straight when it broke. chrysler tells me there is a recall but my vehicle is not from one of the states affected by the recall.

It's rusting under my jeep, the brakes and brake lines are rusting at an alarming rate and the undercarriage is rusting fast. i was driving when my rusty brake line broke. .i i am still paying for this jeep. and i heard of the gas tank having problems.

The windows fell into the door when roling down the drivers rear window. this is the 4th time this has happened and not just this window. i have replaced 3 window regulators and 2 windows. the plastic component holding the window in place has a tiny meatal clip to hold a ball joint to the window and its not strong enough to hold the window in place. for a vehicle designed for off roading i cant see how this is good. the last time this occured was during a rain storm and my 6 yr old got soaked when it fell. just glad the window didnt shatter this time. i almost lost control when this happened and had to find a place to pull over to help him.

Drive at 65 miles per hour on the freeway in california, a loud noise like something had fallen out of the bottom of the car. car became barely controllable. was able to veer to the side of the road with smoke spewing from the passenger front wheel. when tow truck arrived stated that the lower ball joint and control arm were terribly corroded and had snapped. a mechanic looking for parts mentioned that it had been previously recalled. a check of the vin indicated the problem had been noted for recall in 2006, this particular vin had been repaired in 2012. called chrysler, they said they could simply arrange for an appointment but that it would be up to the dealer to decide whether or not i would be charged for repairs. at this time trying to decide on next step.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while driving approximately 35 mph, the driver suddenly lost control of the vehicle. upon inspection, it was discovered that the rear suspension lower control arm fractured due to severe rusting and corrosion. the cause of the failure was not diagnosed. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. no assistance was offered. the contact was informed that the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 12v085000 (suspension). the contact stated that the vehicle experienced the same failure listed in the recall. the local dealer was not notified. the failure mileage was 110,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the vehicle veered severely while being operated. upon inspection, the contact found that the rear control arms were severely corroded. the autonation chrysler dodge dealer was contacted and referred the contact to nhtsa and the manufacturer. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and did not assist. the contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 12v085000 (suspension), but the vin was not included. the failure mileage was approximately 280,000.

Fuel spills from tank during fill up. i bought this car used and the paint is damaged from the previous spills that have occurred. it is evident this has been a long standing issue with this vehicle.

My gas overflow every time i fill up my tank. this has been happening for a few years and i contacted jeep and was told they would not do anything. this is a safety hazard and could cause a fire and something should be done i have spoken to several jeep owners with this model and they are having the same problem.

Every 2002-2007 jeep liberty has defective window regulators. when they break, they are replaced with another defective window regulator again and again. the dealers make $400 a pop to do this and chrysler thinks it is ok. they finally recalled 2006-2007 what about the rest? i missed the recall by one year and my window regulators just continue to break. it is discrimination. your car can be parked and you walk out and see the window down. you can be driving when it happens. your car is never secure. you can be rob or worse killed since anyone can get in when it is down. also, rain, snow, insects or animals can all enter your car but that is not a defect to chrysler. it is time for a recall.

Transmission failed which ruined the transfer case. jeep also recommends installing a transmission cooler. so, why is 2005 not covered? they tell me the parts are over $4,600 not including labor. if it was one year newer it would all be free. explain that to myself and the other owners. • q1: how do i know if i'm covered by the new chrysler lifetime powertrain warranty? • a1: you're covered if you're the first registered vehicle owner – retail or lease – in u.s., puerto rico and the virgin islands. this applies to 2009 model year vehicles. as well as 2006, 2007 and 2008 model year vehicles. • q2: what does the new powertrain limited warranty include? • a2: the chrysler lifetime powertrain warranty covers the cost of all parts and labor needed to repair covered powertrain components – engine, transmission and drive system – on most new chrysler, jeep and dodge vehicles. • q3: what powertrain parts and components are covered? • a3: gasoline engine, transmission and drive systems (fwd, awd, rwd or 4wd). • q6: why did chrysler change its warranty coverage? • a6: our confidence level in our vehicles is very high. our dealers are telling us that our products are the best quality they've seen in a very, very long time – maybe ever. so, we'd like to take this level of confidence and share it with you, our customers. this new powertrain warranty demonstrates our commitment to you as a chrysler, jeep or dodge customer and the confidence we have in our ability to produce quality, reliable and durable vehicles. we want you to feel that same confidence. is that why you fired the executive dealing with quality? • q15: what does 'lifetime' mean? • a15: lifetime means lifetime.

Nhtsa recall number 13v-252. chrysler/jeep has never contacted me in reference to this recall. which seems to be very serious since it appears passengers in my vehicle and myself could be killed due to this defect. another example of jeep not caring about their customers. once they get their money they don't know you. i am the only owner of the vehicle and i have not moved so there is no excuse for not contacting me. i am sure they will lie and say they did. if they had i would have had the work done since it involves life and death. all about the bottom line and not caring about people. i would prefer they send me the materials to repair the problem and i will have my mechanic take care of the issue. when i had jeep repair a defective window regulator now that door does not work. i want it done right so have them send me the parts needed to: 115 avenue c, sch. haven, pa 17972.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while driving approximately 60 mph, the rear driver side window fell into the door panel. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 66,000.

Parking/emergency brake does not hold the vehicle. brakes have been replaced and inspected in good condition. this model is equipped with an auto-adjusting system that does not auto adjust as stated in the service manual. vehicle has popped out of gear and coasted from its parking spot with parking brake fully applied. (see complaint 10897627 for manual transmission complaint). no recalls or service bulletin relating to this safety issue.

Vehicle abruptly disengages from 1st gear (6 speed manual transmission). occurs at any speed in first gear and is unpredictable. also has popped out of first gear after shutoff and stationary. no recalls or service bulletins relating to this issue.

Fuel overflows from filler after auto-shutoff of pump occurs. occurs every time fueling operations occurs regardless of fuel station. numerous complaints issue but no service bulletins or recalls. potential fire hazard.

Nhtsa recall number 13v-252. chrysler/jeep has never contacted me in reference to this recall. which seems to be very serious since it appears passengers in my vehicle and myself could be killed due to this defect. another example of jeep not caring about their customers. once they get their money they don't know you. i am the only owner of the vehicle and i have not moved so there is no excuse for not contacting me. i am sure they will lie and say they did. if they had i would have had the work done since it involves life and death. all about the bottom line and not caring about people.

The transmission is defective which in turn ruined the transfer case. i have another defective belt tensioner. last but not least i have two more broken window regulators. just check the internet there are articles all over about broken window regulators. i understand they only recalled 2006 and 2007 what about 2002-2005 which were bad first. on top of that they replace them with the same defective window regulators so they will break again and again. that way the dealers can continue to make money on you. the garage told me that the transmission in my car was used for one year on one model and i believe it because they have tried all over for a transmission and cannot get the right one. they have had three sent in and all three were wrong. this just confirms that the transmission was defective and they stop using it. plus a transmission should last far longer than 120,000 miles. i read all the time that today cars are good for 200,000 miles or more. this does not include the other defective parts on the jeep: belt tensioners, locks, roof rack, window regulators, horn, leaking windshield, rubber on roof rack, rubber on and around doors, upholstery stains even from water, master cylinder, replacing lights way to often as well as fuses, marks in the paint, fuel relay switch, and this list is by no means all inclusive it is just what i can remember off the top of my head. i have contacted chrysler over the years about window regulators and they don't care. your car is never secure when a window will drop without warning. it can occur while drive or even when you are not in the car. only one window in my car gets opened. windows not used break leaving you susceptible to theft and bodily harm. chrysler does not care about the transmission either. it is all greed. after being bailed out twice by the us taxpayers it is time they pay us back by being honest

Seat belts do not retract doors on the bottom are rusting out along with the window drains paint is bubbling on the side wells.this car is garage kept!we have read about it auto guide.com

My drivers side ball joint has broken while i was driving twice ! last time it caused body damage. i replaced it once and then a recall replaced it and now it broke again !

Manual transmission reverse pops out of gear. sunroof blew off and whipped behind into traffic while driving to work on highway 1 at 55mph.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while the vehicle was in motion, the horn sounded numerous times without warning and would not stop. an independent mechanic disconnected the horn. the contact was informed that the tipm was causing the failure. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 261,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. after placing fuel in the vehicle, fuel spilled out. the dealer diagnosed that the fuel tank needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 31,000.

My car had been driving fine when i was on my way to work this morning i felt a pop under the car and then my car lost power and now it won't go into gear.. but it still turns on.

After inspection from mechanics i was told my 2005 jeep liberty was having the same problems as the other 05 libertys im reference to the front lower ball joints where the defect is allowing moisture to get in damaging the ball joint and it’s cracking and rusted and bad needs to be replaced there is no recall for my vin when i put my vehicle into gear and start driving forward or reverse i get loud pops and. cracking noise also anytime i hit a bump and sometimes while driving on highway i was told the rate at which it’s deteriorating and how bad it is is excessive and needs for a safety concern

While trying to avoid a rear end collision at 30mph steering and break pedal got hard causing rollover where the airbags did not deploy not did the seatbelt restrain

My heated seat was on low and it has been getting extremely hot lately, well today it caught on fire. and about a month ago my ball joints all went out while driving.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while driving 40 mph, the driver heard an abnormal popping sound and lost control of the vehicle. the failure occurred without warning. the vehicle was able to be pulled over to the side of the road. the vehicle was taken to the contact's residence. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 12v085000 (suspension), but the vin was not included. the failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

My son noticed the rear drivers tire not feeling good as he traveled on i-80 outside of lincoln, ne. he started loosing control and eventually lost control, the car rolled several times and came to rest upside down. he was still buckled in the seat. after looking over the car, the rear tires were broken off the car. the lug nuts still attached to the tire. he thinks the drivers rear tire came off first and that was what started the car out of control. the other rear tire was also off after he came to rest so he is not sure when that came off during the crash. the car is a total loss. geico is investigating the car to see if they can determine what took place. this just happened on 12/16/2016.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while making a left turn into the driveway, another vehicle crashed into the contact's vehicle. the contact's vehicle turned 360 degrees. the air bags failed to deploy and the seat belts failed to restrain. the contact sustained a chest injury, and the passenger sustained an eye and tooth injury. medical attention was received. a police report was filed. the vehicle was towed to a tow lot. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 150,000. the vin was not available.

The manual transmission slips out of 1st gear. it's dangerous when trying to make a left turn, or merging into traffic, red lights uphill. it is unsafe for the car to drop out of gear and looses power when it is most important to get out of the way. this transmission issue leads to a lot of 'near misses' from drivers behind who expect to roll forward as normal or flowing traffic who don't expect a car to stop in front of them. mechanics say this is a known issue for this model. i took the car into the dealership when the problem first started, and while they know of the problem they were not able to fix it under the warranty (which at the time it was still under). in various jeep forums, i've seen other users complain of the same safety issue. at one point there was talk of a class action suit - but nothing happened. there is undoubtedly data around this. look at how many jeep accidents happen within a few seconds of starting (from a stop sign, light, up-hill, etc). i bet most accidents happen from behind, or from the side (while merging).

Another issue my jeep liberty renegade has, the vehicle will not go all the way into park position, and allow the ignition to be turned completely to the off position so the key can be removed. i have to push very hard on the gear shifter to get it to go into park, in order to remove the key. this could cause the vehicle not to be completely in the park position, or the vehicle to jump out of park and roll away, which could cause a serious accident, or fatal injury. when i do a search on active recalls for 2005 jeep i berry renegade, it shows one active for this issue, regarding transmission, and improper park anchor installation, which could cause the vehicle to not be in park and/or come out of park. however, when i search my vehicle vin it doesn’t show this recall active per my vin number. *tr

Bushing and body bushing on front of the vehicle, squeak very loudly anytime the vehicle is in motion, or when someone enters or exits the vehicle, the added weight to the vehicle, causes the vehicle to squeak from the front underside of the vehicle, every bump or ruff spot in the road, turning the steering wheel either direction, even the slightest causes very loud squeaking, the squeaking is present with simple rocking of the steering wheel. the steering feels tighter and simple turns require more body muscle use, when the vehicle is both in motion and stationary. the squeaking/rubbing is present, at all times, when even the slightest amount of movement or position changes from driver/passengers inside the vehicle. feels like the front of the vehicle is about to fall out, or that the friction from the rubbing or pieces in the front/ front suspension, is going to cause something to wear down and break, which could cause control of the vehicle to be lost, and could result in an accident, that could potentially be fatal. when i do a general search for recalls on my particular vehicle make and model, it shows 2 regarding the front suspension, and ball joints, however when i search recalls using my vehicles vin number, it shows “0 unrepaired recalls” but i have never had any recalls repaired on my vehicle, and the recalls that show active, fit the issues going on with my vehicle, and i’m not sure why my 2005 jeep liberty renegade, fits into the vehicles with the recall concerns present and active, but my vehicle doesn’t show and one that need to be repaired based on the active recalls. *tr

Purchased a 2005 jeep liberty in the state of wisconsin, a state that has excessive cold and icy weather, streets are heavily salted. the jeep i purchased has had several recalls, major was the rear end control arm, which the dealership repaired. 2005 jeep liberty also has major electrical problems which causes the engine cooling fan to short out. having it to be frequently replaced once a year. 2nd major problem is the front right control arm assembly front upper left and right. along with wheel hub assembly, both corrodes and can cause the steering to brake into, resulting in a lost of steering causing a major accident while driving. these major mechanical problems needs should be recalled, so they can be replaced or repaired. i've taken the jeep to different repairs shop and was told the jeeps are known for safety issues including electrical and control arm problems and to check for recalls. *tr

Every time i get gas, the liberty cannot tell when to stop the pump from pumping gas. gas ends up overflowing down the side of the car, on the ground and even sometimes on me. this is a dangerous situation.

Driver's seat belt comes unbuckled for no reason. the driver's side seat belt disengages periodically. there seems to be no pattern to the occurrences . it happens while driving and while the vehicle is stationary. i am very diligent in making sure the belt is secure because i am aware of the problem. but, it still disengages without being touched.

When i turn sharply both left and right the car stops, the wheels are hitting some bar under the vehicle.

Every time we put gas in our 2005 jeep liberty the pump doesn't stop and gas overflows onto the ground and onto the paint. this seems to be a common problem,

Every time we put gas in our 2005 jeep liberty the pump doesn't stop and gas overflows onto the ground and onto the paint. this seems to be a common problem, is there a recall or something that can be done?

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that while the vehicle was being driven, the vehicle was going all over the road and felt loose. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and was informed by the technician that the right control arm was rusted through and needed to be replaced. the technician informed the contact about nhtsa campaign number: 12v085000 (suspension). the contact stated that the recall was in the state of oh, and the vin was not included in the recall. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer and was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 205,400.

Rear power windows just fell to the bottom and they won't go up anymore

Front right spindle went bad very early in life of car, and bar linkage with it. expensive fix. please issue recall!!!!

Heater blower resistor keeps burning out. replaced multiple times. please issue recall!!!

I have a jeep liberty 2005 sport they have a recall about the corrosion on my car and they don't want to to fix it. i am really scared on driving like that.

Takata recall: while driving, especially uphill or at high speeds (such as the interstate) the vehicle will sputter and shake and lose horsepower (this especially happens during warm weather). when this happens, the odometer drops, and you cannot get the speed to increase, which is a terrifying experience when you're travelling on the interstate with cars going 70+ mph behind you and you have tractor trailers beside you. i've taken my jeep to 3+ garages to remedy the issue, and they're all left scratching their heads because the system has wiped every code that was thrown, and everything they try does not help matters - none of them know what to do aside from guessing and replacing parts. the last garage i went to researched the issue, as did i, and there are countless forums with these complaints about jeeps. furthermore, a lot go on to say they replaced this, that, and the other and the problem goes away for a small amount of time before starting up again, and they and their mechanics are also at a loss. this has been about 2 years of researching, garage work, and an inability to take the vehicle long distances or high speeds. one post i read even said it could be a serious fire hazard which is dangerous for those in the vehicle and those on the roadway.

I noticed when driving my 2005 jeep liberty, when i came to a stop or pulled off, i would hear a noise underneath the back of my car, sounding like a jarring sound , like something was loose..my car's steering wasn't as relaxed as it should have been when turning especially..this noise kept getting louder, i eventually had it towed to the shop because of this problem and a issue with the thermostat..to find out my rear drive shaft had popped.

Airbag light has been on since i brought the vehicle. i’m worried the airbag will go off while driving or while stable and cause injury

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the suspension warning indicator illuminated. the vehicle was serviced per nhtsa campaign number: 18v278000 (suspension) by arrigo dodge jeep chrysler (6500 okeechobee blvd, west palm beach, fl 33411, (561) 282-1545); however, the remedy failed to repair the vehicle. the contact mentioned that the air suspension warning indicator illuminated after the recall repair. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 122,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the rear driver's side suspension snapped and the contact lost control of the vehicle. the vehicle swerved to the other side of the road. the contact was able to regain control and drove home. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that new trailing arms needed to be installed. the vehicle was repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 151,000.

The front lower ball joints failed a second time and were replaced again per nhsta id # 06v-288 recall f23. the official mopar website says faq says that "q once the recall is completed, what is the warranty on the repair if the recalled component fails again? a if there is a subsequent failure, we will review the situation and if, in fact, it is for the same condition as the recall, fca us will repair the vehicle for free." i am being told by a fca case manager that there is a 2 year 24 month warranty on the parts installed as part of this safety recall. the mopar website faq makes no mention of this and i can not be told where to find this 2 year 24 month warraty. why isn't fca following their own policy stated to the public? why is fca being deceptive and inaccurate? how should this falsehood be addressed?

The driver's side seatbelt comes unlatched while driving at any speed. it has become unlatched at stop signs and red lights. it does not make a difference if the car is in motion or not, the seatbelt comes unlatched . this started happening a few months ago.

I have my brother's 2005 jeep liberty with less than 100,000 miles. it is a very important vehicle to me as he passed from cancer. to date i have filled the car 3x and every time i get a gas gusher coming out of the tank. the last time i was extra careful and still ended up getting gas all over the car and myself. now i try to estimate gallons so it doesn't spray out and i stand off to the side. 600.00 is a lot of money to spend for a new fuel neck replacement. obviously not everyone is reporting this as they are trying to fix it themselves. try googling this on the internet. this is not a safe situation, although gas on the outside dissipates quite quickly. one spark and the gas station could be toast. i am very leery of chrysler & dodge gas tanks, thankfully my magnum which started acting up had a lifetime warranty on the fuel tank, which dodge is not very quick to point out. my magnum just started dying after it was filled up, fixed now i hope. hoping you can come up with a re-call for these jeeps. very disappointed in the fueling up issues.

Rear control arm rusted

Here is the problem, will not schedule an appointment for the replacement rear lower control arms. this is a follow up complaint to the one i filed on 4-18-18, id# 11120806.on 1-4-19 i received a call from debbie of specialty parts about the original complaint. different from the first representative not knowing why the dealer wanted a inspection before ordering the control arms, debbie stated that was a corporate decision. ( you would think that having dealt with this recall in one form or another over the past seven years they could get this straight.) her reasoning was that fca had to inspect my vehicle and replace required parts before they could put on the new lower control arms. i asked what parts required inspection and she said my shocks .i told her those don't attach to the contro[ arm she then said that they would have to check my control arms and check the vin to verify i had not gone to a junk yard and replaced them myself. i asked her if she knew what the control arms were and she stated she was not a tech. she also told me that they do not tell their customers all they have to do to a vehicle in a recall. nhtsa, i would think if they state that they do not tell all that they do, they may not have told you all the issues either. there is no other way to interpret this conversation other than, "we need to inspect your vehicle and replace parts at your expense to minimize damage to our bottom line." i asked to speak to her supervisor and debbie state she did not have one, no one above her. i ended the call.i have received the second recall card. again it states to schedule your free repair. they will not do it. all i want from fca is what they stated they would do. replace both rear lower control arms. stop playing games.

On february 1, 2019 around 11:40pm, i was driving with my jeep's seat heater on. approximately 30 minutes later i smelled something burning. i reached around to feel my coat was extremely hot, so i grabbed a frozen bottle of water from my lunch bag and placed it between me and my seat. not thinking that my seat was catching fire. when i pulled into a parking lot i noticed a hole in my seat cover. i pulled seat cover off and saw the scorch marks on my seat. also a burn mark on back of coat. when i got home i checked my back and had a small burn mark.

The steering got hard and felt like the ball joint on the control arms lock up ; the door locks cycle continuously and now driver door, left rear passenger door and back tailgate will not open, horn will not blow, radio will not work, and interior lights won't work. the steering problems happen while driving on highways and when making turns of any kind the slightest movement of the steering wheel will car is moving makes erratic navigation in anything other than a straight path. the door locks cycle on and off while driving and also not moving and without the car being started and is as rest without key inserted in the ignition cylinder. i am fearful for my grand children to ride in the car with me and very concerned of a failure that may jeopardize their safety.

Front driveshaft is vibrating and in need of replacement.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while the vehicle was in motion, the driver's seat belt became unfastened. the seat belt warning indicator illuminated with a chime each time the failure occurred. the failure occurred more frequently over the past three months. the dealer was not contacted. the manufacturer was notified and had not issued any seat belt recalls. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 113,000.

While filling up the gas tank, the pump automatic shut off is triggered several times before the tank is full and as a result, gas ends up spewing back out of the tank runs down the side of the vehicle to the ground creating a potential fire hazard. it seems like the gas tank is unable to vent the air out quickly enough so the gas comes back out of the tank fill tube.

Ignition switch not turning when attempting to crank vehicle. i had recently drove my vehicle. prior to the incident my ignition switch made a louder noise when i attempted to turn over the vehicle. now it's not working at all.

While driving down the read all the lights inside and out blink on and off. then the speedometer quit and wont work now

U38 nhtsa recall # 18v-278 no dealer within 100 miles will honor the recall. said can't get parts or not available for scheduling or they didn't sell me the car. or they want to charge for the repair.

The nhtsa required jeep to issue a recall on fractured rear control arms that could cause reduced vehicle control and cause a crash. i have been trying since july 11 to schedule my vehicle for repair with friendship jeep in bristol, tn. they say they cannot get the parts because jeep is only allowing them to order 4-5 at a time and then they back order them. when i called the recall assistance center, they are saying mopar has them on national back order. it seems neither jeep or mopar care much about driver safety. how are consumers supposed to get their recalled vehicles repaired when parts aren't available?

This concerns recall u38?nhtsa 18v-278 that says fca will replace both rear lower control arms. does not seem to be that straight forward. the attached file is the email received from fca and my original questions posted to them. i do not have a copy, but i replied to fca email asking whose recall is it, fca or their dealers? they did not address why different dealers are giving different infomation. i also asked what is the dealer going to inspect as it appears that the arms are corroding from the inside out. according to the recall paper work, fca says the arms must be replaced. why should i be required to do two dealer visits because the dealer wants it that way. fca is not taking ownership of the recall and is allowing different dealers to treat customers in very different ways, which amounts to no one is hooering the recall as printed.

While turning left in a parking lot at a low rate of speed the passenger side lower ball joint failed and came apart. the wheel pivoted out from the vehicle dropping that corner to the ground. the vehicle was towed to my service provider and upon inspection the other ball joint was found to be crack and requiring replacement as well. this vehicle has had regular maintenance preformed by dealers over its life. the

My brake lights continue to have issues/not function, resulting in safety issues and tickets. this time the metal connectors in the brake light assembly have melted plastic around them, so it does not connect with the socket connectors and that means no brake lights. appears, based on the volume of youtube repair videos, that this is a common safety issue but when i looked at recalls and contacted jeep, it is not an item of concern. the brake lights dont work, that should be a concern.

My rear lower control arm has erosion from excessive salt, to where it is broken almost in half, and there is already a recall for this l27 how ever this is state specific and kansas isn't included in this. i am not sure why kansas is not included in this recall when we have snow and the roads are salted just as much as some of the other states included in the recall. i have taken it to a dealership for diagnosis and was told that they have repaired this on cars under the recall and what has happened to my car is exactly what has happened to cars they have repaired. for this not to be included is ridiculous and a safety hazardous, and could cause an accident while driving if this was to break completely.

Ball joints corrosion

When breaking on anything other than drive pavement all four tires lock up. i have gone through numerous intersections and stop signs and been lucky enough to not hit anyone. i now have to approach stop signs and lights that have any incline by pumping my breaks and coming to a crawl. this never happened with my 2003 and it didnt happen when i first bought the jeep. since i live in maine where winters are bad it is very troubling and stressful.

Jeep liberty window regulator bracket failure.i have had three window regulator bracket failures on my 2005 jeep liberty making the window inoperable. one of the failures was within 60 days or replacement. there is no point replacing the equipment if it breaks right away. it's a very bad design and going over a bump can cause he window to suddenly crash down, fortunately mine didn't break. how is this not a recall? i only have approximately 80,000 mile son my jeep.

A few weeks ago i had flat tire. when we used the jack that came with the vehicle it did not live it high enough to put the spare tire on. it lacked about 3 inches or so. if this had happened on the side of the road i would have in a bad situation. we put the flat back on and aired it up using a neighbors air compressor. i searched on the internet and learned that this problem with the jack is normal for the jeep liberty. it is a safety issue and should be dealt with. i have no photographic evidence, but would be glad to demonstrate to anyone who would want to check it. thankfully this all happened at my home. *tt

This vehicle was purchased new and has less than 140,000 miles. #1-it has corrosion on the outer body panels that is starting to go into the frame. the corrosion has caused numerous cuts, scrapes and damaged clothing as you get in and out of the vehicle. #2- i started smelling antifreeze but you couldn't see any leaks unless it was parked downhill so i took it to the shop for diagnosis. after several test they found it to be the head gasket. #3- i also have issues with the drivers side seat belt staying latched. you can be driving along and it will just release and it takes awhile to get it to latch back. #4-it wouldn't let me select the option to talk about the window regulators that just all of a sudden decide to work by themselves. i've had several people discuss these issues with me and i'd not seen any issues until lately, regardless of how significant anyone thinks these issues are i've worked in the auto industry long enough to know that the maker should stand behind their product regardless of the significance or age of vehicle.

Recall of control arms: purchased in november 2015. 1/22/16 in the evening, my 16 year old son had just gotten off the highway and was coming into town (at 25 mph thankfully), felt a jerk and heard a noise. pulled over immediately. bottom line, the control arms were rusted the whole way through...recall issue. i called them and they said they would pay for tow. i have tried relentlessly (sometimes nicely and sometimes not so nicely) to get them to pay for the 2 day rental that i had to pay for while the truck was in the shop. they said they wouldn't because it was outside their "parameters". i understand, buyer beware, check recalls etc before purchasing. they may or may not (typically not from what i am reading) provide you with acceptable customer service. the inconvenience is typical, that's life. but for me to have to pay out of pocket for their sub par equipment.....not acceptable. the local dealership was friendly and as helpful as they could be considering all they really needed to do was fix the recall item (i did have them repair another separate issue at my cost). they were quick to get it repaired. i dealt with aaron and thought he was professional and friendly. this could have caused injury or even death to my son, especially if he had been on the highway like had just a few minutes earlier. i have a hard time accepting that $100.00 is going to be the difference in good and bad customer service for them. this is their case # 28638056

Trying to get letter of compliance on an english jeep saying it meets us min. safety standard. i have called several numbers and keep being sent to another number. the car was built in onio but no one seems to know where to get this information. can you help me?

We received the notice about the gas/fuel tank potential to catch fire, we took our vehicle to the dealer. the dealer explained that we have too much corrosion on our vehicle to be repaired. the cost to repair exceeds the value of the vehicle, currently we are still driving with a vehicle that may catch fire. we contacted chrysler as we still are paying off the vehicle, we where given the run around until finally one associate told us simply, they will not help you. prior to this recall notice we have constantly had issues when filling up with gas and the gas would leak out in large quantities instead of shutting off. we replaced the oil pan recently after it rusted out, we are about to replace to transmission fluid pan as that is about to rust out, the transmission lines are also rusting and corroded. our jeep may be an 05 but it looks as if its brand new rolling off the line, we take care of our vehicle. we are informed consumers and know there is a recall for chrysler failing to fix the fuel tank explosion issues, when we looked up the vin for our vehicle it was not showing that it is one of the one's being recalled. our vehicle was not repaired and we should be included in this recall. we want to know if our vehicle will be included in the recall. we still have all the paperwork from visiting the dealer. when we took the vehicle up for the recall, the dealership told us that jeep has issues with rust to begin with and that it is a known issue that has yet to be corrected.

When shifting my jeep from 1st to 2nd it sometimes makes a grinding noise. i brought it to my mechanic today and he took it for a ride. he told me that he thinks it's a little ball inside the transmission that is covered with nylon, and a couple of forks make it move. he is going to try changing my transmission fluid to a synthetic brand in hopes that will slow down the wear on the nylon ball, but eventually i will need a new transmission. i asked him what will happen when the ball finally breaks, and he told me the vehicle will cease to move, rather i am driving it or not. he also told me that this problem is a known problem with jeeps. if this is a known problem with jeeps then why haven't they been recalled and/or fixed?

Driving on the interstate near fort worth the left rear window just fell down the door. it distracted me and i almost crashed into a guardrail because of the sudden pressure change in the car. i sorta panicked since the baby in the back seat began crying since the window was on her side in the back seat. after contacting several jeep owners, i have found out that this is a common problem with the windows on jeeps and it has already happened to the right side window last year. i used a zip tie to keep the window up. i saw a youtube vidio on how to do this. since the right side window has a zip tie holding it up i no longer use that window. i think that jeep should consider recalling this problem since eventually someone is going to get hurt because of this problem.

After driving my jeep for about 20 minutes it will start going in and out of limp mode then it will downshift hard to 3rd gear and will rev the engine until it is shut off and started again. i am no longer driving it and am debating on whether or not to fix it as i just dumped over $3000. for engine. this car seems to be a walking time bomb

Suspension issue. it appears that the front end to be coming loose. lots of noise such as grinding,etc. i stopped at garage and had them out it on a lift for inspection. the determination was that the front, left and right, upper and lower ball joints are defective. upon inspection by the mechanic, and by me visually, it appears to be premature wear. mechanic suspects a product defect, as do i. i checked nhtsa official site for recalls. multiple recalls for this suspension issue. seat belt driver's side latching mechanism between the seat and console sticks intermittently. sometimes it takes multiple efforts to disconnect the seal belt so that driver may exit the vehicle. dealer claims there are no recalls on this item and no warranty. current mileage on vehicle is 74,400 miles. electrical power window assemblies. all four assemblies have been replaced. during the first year of ownership (bought new in 2005) both left and right front window assemblies were replaced under warranty, since then all four assemblies (front driver and passenger sides, and rear driver side and passenger side have been replaced at the expense of the owner. this is a multiple occurring problem and in my estimation seems to be a product design and manufacturing problem.

Jeep liberty 2005 power windows failure. i have just scheduled, for the 3rd time, my window motor repair replacement. if this is a known issue, why isn't it being addressed? and it is apparently known as you may see in the links below: http://www.carcomplaints.com/jeep/liberty/2005/windows_windshield/power_window_regulator_failure.shtml this issue is no doubt problematic and has had numerous complaints. the above link is only one of many but represents several as you can see. my concern is on my model, i am now doing my third window and it should be noted as it is not coincidental. please address this through the appropriate channels.

On 6/5/2015, while on the freeway, the dashboard went crazy. engine and airbag lights flashed, fuel, temperature, and speed gauges went dead (zero), air conditioning stopped. i drove straight to the elk grove dealership's service department. they were unable to find what was wrong. unable to duplicate the problem and the computer memory did not showed them anything. they performed the 120k service instead. on 6/18/2015, while driving at 15mph it happened again. this time, i pulled to the side of the road and took a video of the dashboard, and again drove to the elk grove dealership. as of today, they have been unable to diagnose/find what is wrong. they know is a control module, but do not know which one. since other jeep models experiencing similar problems have been subject to recall, i want to know why not for the 2005 model. i fear for my safety and the safety of drivers around me should this control module kills the engine while i am on the freeway. i have been without transportation while the car is held hostage for observation. this module has a factory or design defect that needs to be corrected by jeep!

Jeep liberty 2005, less than 70000 miles. gas overflows upon filling up tank. at first thought, it was fuel pump. however, this happens at all stations every time it is to be filled up. therefore is my reasoning for my concern. search on line and found this is problematic; links below confirms this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whehmnkxoyk http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f176/have-fuel-spill-problems-like-many-us-submit-complaint-force-recall-974337/ there are many reports showing these same concerns. please address this through the proper channels. it needs to be corrected. thank you

I have had numerous issues with this vehicle. i have had to replace the cooling fan, three window motors, the alternator, head gaskets, the fuel pump sensor is broken, the oil sensor is broken, when i pump gas it spills out, the radiator, the electrical system on both the left and right side. the tail lights don't work properly and i have replaced both the lights and fuses as well as the sockets numerous times. these are just the things i can think of off the top of my head. i've spent thousands of dollars, literally, on this car. i feel like it's a death trap waiting to happen and can't wait until i am able to purchase something else, it won't be a jeep product. jeep doesn't care if you have numerous issues with their product. when i first started having issues i called the dealership i purchased from to talk to my salesman and i was asked what my mileage was. i was right around 48,000 miles, i was put off numerous times and told he would be who i would need to deal with. after i hit the 50,000 mark they informed me he had been murdered and i was not out of warranty. each passing day seems to bring new problems with this vehicle. i just thought someone should finally know. i'm also not counting the recalls in on my list of issues.

Fuel overflow when filling up, spills gas everywhere.

Every time my wife or i fill up the gas tank, gas sprays everywhere as the auto-shut-off does not work. the gas tank over-fills every single time and gas spews everywhere, getting on me, down the side of my jeep, and all over the ground. this is a major hazard and could ultimately end up in an explosion. to act as additional support, the fact that gas sprays everywhere is against the law that can be found on the stickers at every gas station gas pump for how to "operate" the gas pump and how to "fill-up" correctly. there needs to be a recall immediately as i know there are many other people who experience this same issue. also, the only reason why i stated the problem began at 147,000 miles is because that was the mileage on the vehicle when i purchased it used.

The driverside front window just fell down and i couldn't get it to roll back up

Vehicle was rolling backwards when brake was applied while sitting on a hill at a stop sign. jeep would not move forward when gas was applied it tried to roll backwards as if it were a manual transmission.

As i was pulling into a parking lot i suddenly heard a loud noise and noticed my back wheels acting strange. i thought it was a flat tire so i parked and checked my rear tires. everything looked fine so i got what i had come for then got back on the road. the noise and difficulty steering were still there though so i pulled over again and looked under the rear tires. the rear control arm on the drivers side has completely rusted through and broken. i couldn't believe a car with less than 70,000 miles on it could have a part completely rust through like that so i checked all the recalls on the liberty model. not surprisingly there was a recall due to excessive rust on the very part that had completely rusted out on my vehicle. i was never notified of this safety recall though because i don't live in one of the states where the recall was issued. the states where the recall was issued get snow in the winter and salt is usually used to clear the streets. that is why these states were in the recall. i live in nebraska though, a state that gets nearly as much snow as iowa, missouri, and minnesota (three states that were included in the recall) and yet if you live in my state you are not informed of the recall and you do not get the parts replaced. if i had not been pulling into a parking lot at the moment the rear control arm had rusted through and broken the incident could have been much worse. i could have been on the highway or a busy street and easily lost control of my vehicle. since my state was not included in the recall my safety (and the safety of other drivers) was put at risk and i will now be out $600.

This is a safety complaint on a 2005 jeep liberty complaint for the 3 recalls. ball joints, trailer hitch and control arms. on this day i brought my vehicle to transitowne in williamsville, ny for the recalls, i never received the ball joint recall previously. my vehicle was safe, no noise, no problems and was currently in mint condition mechanically and otherwise. i dropped it off thursday night 5/7/2015 to be worked on 7/8/2015. they called the morning of 7/8/2015 to say the vehicle was complete. as i drove home the wheel shakes and front end makes noise while braking and sounds loose. i immediately returned it, they were rude and after my obvious frustration finally decided to take a test drive. when sal, the service coordinator came back and actually admitted (with a witness) i was one in a million that received bad ball joints but that they don't have any more i would have to wait. i explained when braking something is rubbing, steering is shaky and makes a clunk noise from ball joints. they let me drive away with a vehicle that is unsafe. loose ball joints with any play in them can result in an accident. they offered no rental, no help and ignore me. i have my own business (sole) and cannot drive it, i don't trust it and it cannot be driven to kayaking. my entire weekend was ruined not to mention i cannot drive a noisy, dangerous vehicle. they did not replace the trailer hitch even though it's 10 years old (i put it on myself) did not come with the jeep, and it's welds are rusty and brittle, they did not care about that either. chrysler case # 26946712. i feel like nobody cares about my problem, it can't be legal for a dealership to send drivers home with vehicles that have loose ball joints and tell them it's safe, they have no idea where i go and drive with my vehicle, it's construction season and one pothole on the thruway could kill me.

Read stabilizer bar rusted in two while driving. rear end shifted to one side making driving impossible. if this happened at a faster speed it might have created a wreck. there are recalls for this problem but my jeep based on the vin number, is not apart of the recall. *tr

The radiator on this vehicle has been replaced times in the 8 years i have owned it. it has 7 recalls, the window on the passenger side is broken, the sensors in the engine have been replaced twice. the radiator is plastic and looks like something out of a bubble gum machine. it also has a plastic cooling fan, not metal, which also broke. i have put as much money in this vehicle as i paid for it. the brakes are horrid and go out constantly. i only have a 5 mile commute to work. the vehicle is serviced on a regular basis. it is a huge disappointment. i got this vehicle because we had owned several jeeps and liked them. this vehicle is always breaking down. the fan doesn't work on the heater except on high. the alternator has been replaced twice. the exhaust has been replaced twice. i would never buy a jeep product again after this. *tr

Both front seat belts continually unlatch by themselves. also, they are hard to get latched. the vehicle currently has less than 50,000 miles and had only approximately 25,000 when the seat belts first started malfunctioning, so they haven't been used that much. i called the dealership to complain but they said the seat belts will cost $60 each without installation. it's sad that such a prevalent and serious issue such as this isn't currently being recalled. maybe it'll take a few people being seriously injured for jeep (chrysler) to perform this recall...... but then again, they'll probably just say the person simply wasn't wearing their seat belt. *tr

When ever i fuel this vehicle up fuel spills out wither in an automatic shutoff mode (there's a lot that spills like this) or doing it manually as slowly as pump will allow. i am fearful of a fire or explosion during this process. i looked up on line and in some of the jeep forums this seems to a thing the 2005 jeep liberty does. on one of the forums http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f28/2005-liberty-spills-gas-1184293/ 03-20-2011, 02:08 pm the poster flyordie says "jeep has issued a silent recall on this problem. just so you all know. ***** and moan enough at the dealership and they will fix it on their dime." why is it silent? why don't they just issue the recall and save some one or their father or mother or kid fro being killed when its preventable? i chatted with an online rep from jeep a [xxx] and she gave me a complaint number [xxx]: the case number is [xxx] . this was at their live chat room on owner connect (mopar). at https://mopar.custhelp.com/app/mopar/chat_landing/first_name/[xxx]/last_name/broach/email/standho%40sbcglobal.net/request_source/8 i was told that no one would be contacting me from jeep, all complaints are handled internally. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

To whom it may concern, we have tried to have a recall ( n46/nhtsa 13v-252) scheduled and fixed numerous times with chrysler dealers in the area, only to get answers that they don't have the parts and that they can't complete the recall. in the meantime we have received several safety recalls regarding this matter. we don't know how we are going to have this fixed as it seems nobody want to do it. the car is in use every day and at times long drives on the interstate. please advise as soon as possible how to proceed. *tr

Just purchased the vehicle and could not get the key out of the ignition once i got home and parked the car. played with it for approx. 30 min. and then the key came out. drove the car a second time and parked the vehicle and could not get the key out. i went into the house and waited approx. 30 min. was then able to turn the ignition to click and line up and get the key out. the ignition does not allow you to make the final click once in park to get the key out of the ignition. i went online and seen that the internet was blown up with this problem especially in the 2005 jeep liberty as well as other jeeps. i think it is about time they make this a recall!!!! *tr

Greetings, i am writing to you today because i have received several safety recall notices for the same recall #n46/nhtsa 13v-252 beginning in 2013. i have had my name registered with two different dealerships for well over 18 months with no repair work done. i am asking for your assistance in having this issue remedied. i can be reached at [xxx] for any relevant information or communication. respectfully, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Every time i put fuel in my liberty, gas sprays everywhere. it does this every time i start fueling. it also does it when the tank is full. i lose a least 1/2 gallon every time i fill up. the dealership says nothing is wrong with it. if there's nothing wrong, how do i get covered in gas every time i put fuel in? it's very frustrating. i did get a recall n46 for the fuel tank, but their way of fixing it, is to put on a trailer hitch. that does nothing to fix the overflow issue. *tr

I went to start my jeep and it caught on fire under the hood. also, it sometimes doesn't start, when it does and i'm driving, it stalls in the middle of traffic. this happens when i'm in the middle of making a left turn and i'm afraid i'm going to get hit! it mostly happens when it's raining or a lot of moisture in the air. it pulls and hesitates while i'm driving as well. my insurance paid for the damage when i had the fire, but i'm now learning that it's a big issue with jeeps. i have 3 children and i'm afraid for their safety. i can't afford a new vehicle. *tr

After making a left turn, i heard a pop, as i gained speed the vehicle wandered to the right side of the road and difficult to control. i was just a few blocks from my home was able to make it back home very slowly. once i parked my jeep in the garage i was able to look it over carefully and found the driver side rear lower control arm rusted thru. the passenger side rear control arm was also very rusty and appeared to be ready to break. i was able to trailer the jeep to overland park kansas jeep dealer to replace both rear lower control arms. i live in kansas and work in kansas city, missouri. the dealer informed me the recall on this part did not apply to kansas. i do have a photo of the rust and broken rear control arm. *tr

Right rear lower control arm broke while i was driving, causing me to lose control of the vehicle because the rear passenger wheel went under the fender causing me to almost hit an oncoming vehicle head-on. upon investigation, i realized that the rear lower control arms on this vehicle had been recalled in april 2012 in the "salt belt" states due to rust. although i live in kentucky, which i am told is not the salt belt, it is still obvious that these defective parts were used on my vehicle which was purchased new in 2005 and had no previous owners. a mechanic has also verified that the right lower control arm broke due to rust and that the left lower control arm is rusted. and although i have been a repeat customer having also purchased a 2009 dodge journey new and a 2012 dodge ram new, the company has refused to replace these obviously documented defective parts. i have recently contemplated purchasing a new jeep laredo; however, i am done with jeep, dodge and chrysler products and intend to go with ford, gm and/or chevrolet in the future. *tr

On saturday september 27th while driving my vehicle i noticed a rumble noise while climbing a modest hill. an inspection of the vehicle revealed that the rear axle had moved forward several inches and the driver rear wheel had moved into a position where it was contacting the inner fender which caused the noise. further investigating the cause lead me to notice that the lower control arm had failed due to corrosion which allowed axle to move forward. i have contacted chrysler by registered letter regarding this issue but i have received no response. *tr

I was sent a recall notice for my 2005 jeep liberty (n46 recall). after a long wait being told there were no parts available i finally got it into a dealer who told me they were unable to install the trailer hitch because of rust and that chrysler states that it is a level 5 corrosion so they were unable to fix the problem. i find this very disturbing since there have been so many accidents with the gas tank exploding and burning the whole car on impacts, rollovers, etc. i feel very unsafe to drive this vehicle at this point and still feel that the dealer should be able to do something to fix this problem... ...updated08/20/15 *bf *tr updated 9/25/2017*cn

At approx 8:00 on the morning of 2/16/15 my 2005 jeep liberty, 3.8l v-6 with automatic transmission began to accelerate out of control while braking for a stop sign. the engine was cold, i had just started it and the temperature was in the mid to upper 50s. i was traveling about 27 mph, and began to slow for the stop. at about 10-15 mph, i noticed the car was no longer slowing down. it seemed as though the brakes stopped working. at the same time, the engine briefly revved on its own. this made the car accelerate. i could not stop at the stop sign and the car accelerated into 50 mph cross traffic. i made a hard right turn to bring the car next to the curb, allowing room for traffic to go by. at the same time, i put the transmission into neutral and that allowed the car to stop. i then put the car into park and revved the engine. it seemed to respond normally at that point (engine would return to idle immediately after taking my foot off the gas). after shifting between part to drive, then reverse, etc. several times, it still seemed to work normally so i continued to work with no further problems. it seemed as though while coming to a stop, the transmission did not down shift or disengage. as the engine rpms were reduced below idle due to the car slowing, the computer control system tried to bring the engine speed back up, causing it to accelerate. a couple of facts - the car has approx. 159,800 miles on the odometer. i purchased it used a few months ago and have put 13,000 miles on it. when i purchased it i had it examined by a mechanic and had all the hoses, belts, etc. replaced. i've had the oil changed at about 5,000 mile intervals. i drive with one foot only, i don't use separate feet for the gas and the brake. the floor mat was not moved before or after this incident, and is not close to the gas pedal. check engine light did not come on. *tr

My son took his 2005 jeep liberty in for the recall where they are supposed to install a trailer hitch to prevent the gas tank from rupturing during a rear end collision. they told him his frame had too much rust on it and that they could not put on the hitch. it is a ny car and he now lives in arkansas. it is in normal condition for a 10 year old car driven year around in upstate ny. i am sure that they have not see as much rust on vehicles in arkansas so i think they are antsy about any rust at all. or, they are looking for any excuse not to do the repair. the amount of rust just speaks to the original design/manufacturing quality if anything. it been over 2.5 years since the recall was first announced and over a year to the point that they had enough hitches. he's been trying to get in for repair the last 6 months. i'm sure 3 years ago there was less rust on the frame but it has taken this long to get it in. is jeep off the hook because of rust? shouldn't jeep be required to fix the problem on all vehicles that are still on the road? shouldn't they have another fix in place for jeeps that can't accept the "hitch" fix? it appears from what i have read that jeep purposely delayed the recall so there were fewer vehicles left on the road and now they get to make the call when there is too much rust. how am i supposed to feel that my son is safe if jeep is allowed to say "pass" on repairing his vehicle. who allowed jeep to decide if a vehicle gets the fix or not. why was jeep allowed to have a fix that can't work on all vehicles still on the road? i have read there have been additional jeep fires and deaths just in the last 6 months and jeep still has the ability to refuse to fix some vehicles. how is jeep being held responsible for these deaths? what options does he have? please let me know what steps i need to take to have his jeep fixed correctly......updated 05/14/15 *bf *tr

Typically, when refueling, upon reaching the full level with the fuel pump nozzle in the auto shutoff position the pump nozzle will shut off but gasoline will continue to flow and spew out of the fill tube, down the side of the car, onto the ground and onto me. i've learned to manually stop adding fuel prior to the full level to avoid the risks this situation presents. on 11/22/2014 with the fuel tank nearly empty i attempted to refuel with fuel nozzle in auto position for the initial fill period. after adding approximately 2 gallons gasoline began spewing out. to stop the flow i had to grab the nozzle and disengage the lever manually and in the process soaked my hand, arm and lower leg with gasoline. i attempted to begin refueling again with an identical out come. i moved to a different pump station and twice attempted to fill by manually operating the nozzle lever. gasoline poured and spewed out both times. after having added just 5 gallons total i stopped attempting to add fuel. i am now in the process of finding service/repair before driving the vehicle again as i don't believe it is safe to add fuel in current condition. *tr

In a clear sunny day i was entering the freeway when i heard a big bang on my lower end front of my jeep liberty. there was nothing in the road that could have damaged it. the road was clear of any debris. after a couple of years taking it in into my jeep dealership they could find nothing wrong with it. finally not third but forth was a charm when they told me the lower front arms and bushing needed replacing. i have heard from many jeep owners that they have had the same problems i want to know why these parts have not been recalled. *tr

My girlfriend of 21 years, went into the doctor and when she came out her jeep liberty would start and then stall. she said there was clunking noise from the engine. i get there and call aaa and have it towed to a plus transmission and auto repair in brighton michigan. they said the rocker arm came lose from the adjuster and that should fix the problem. not so, turns out it was a broken valve seat also that had dropped down into the cylinder causing catastrophic engine failure. we are left with the expense of replacing the engine at a cost to us of $5600.00. this is a known problem with the chrysler 3.7 v6 engine. it happens just after the warranty expires. with todays technology i believe that engine should have had lasted up to 200000 miles. since we cant afford a new car this is the only way we can go. however, i believe chrysler should help with the expense of this. never will i buy from chrysler again. *tr

I had turned into the parking lot and the lower ball joint on the passenger side had broke. i had this taken care of by a non jeep dealer due to short on funds to have it done by a jeep dealer, at the time this happened did not know jeep would have covered the cost of the repairs since this issue was a recall issue that had been fix back in 2007. this jeep i had purchased used in dec 2013. i had called jeep corp to check on recalls after i had first purchased. found things were fixed but was not told there was a 10 year warranty on that work that was done back in 2007 by the previous owner. if i would have know that at the time i had this issue again on july 26 2014 i would have taken it to the jeep dealer, but because i did not have a lot of money i had it fixed by another auto repair service. i would like to be reimbursed for the cost at 534.40 i had to pay in july 2014 for issues with the same that were recalled and fixed back in 2007. i had called today to find out what i could do and was told nothing now since i had it fixed by a non jeep dealer. i really think it should be reimbursed do to the fact i had to have this fixed after it was recall and fixed by a jeep dealer and it still broke. i have the receipt for the repairs that were done july 2014. *tr

Every single time we fill up the car (no topping off), the gas shoots out of the tank back at us. we bought this used car for hoping it would be reliable, but this is a recurring dangerous problem. we lower the flow of fuel from the pump, but it still happens. very dangerous! we have head that the plastic o ring swells with gasoline that contains ethanol and fails to cut the back flow off. the problem with this is, all pumps in our area contain at least 10% ethanol. what good is a car if you can't drive it?! *tr

Received notice on n46 recall that hitch was available to install to take care of gas tank issue. called local dealer lochmandy motors of elkhart indiana to set up date and time. i was told it was a class 2 hitch with a 2" receiver. i said i was removing my old hitch that was getting rusty . he said he had to order part and i will have to make the appointment when it came in. it came in and i made the appointment for install and again questioned the rating and received the same answer. i stopped in 3 days before my appointment to take a look at the hitch and i was shown the hitch and was told it is not meant to be used to tow. i questioned this and was told he knows i tow and and long as i do not try to tow as big as a house like some people do, then i should be fine. i was again told it was a class 2 and we both mentioned we see the 2" receiver. on day of install i called chrysler main office directly to find out the ratings and they said "no" it not meant to be used to tow and it is just structural. she said the dealer knows this and they have a tag they place on the hitch after install stating this and i must sign off on this. at the time i looked at the hitch at the dealer before install he said there is no tag and 1 will placed on it after install. i called lochmandy motors right back and told them to remove it from my jeep. the public and nhtsa are being mislead by chrysler and the dealer and some one is going to get hurt trying to tow with this unit. how many people with disregard the label or have it removed and then the next owner pays the price. chrysler knows this will happen. i will again have to spend money for an aftermarket part to fix a chrysler fatal death issue. *tr

Over the past 12 months, i have received three (3) separate notices for vehicle recall, notification code n46. each time i have called my dealer and each time my dealer has told me they do not have any of the parts to accomplish the repair on the recall. they also tell me they have no idea when they will get the parts in. if my vehicle is subject to a recall, i have been driving an unsafe vehicle for quite some time. the dealer shows no sense of caring if i get the vehicle fixed or not. they open themselves up to a lawsuit if something should happen. i think the nhtsa should fine chrysler and the dealer as neither care about getting my jeep fixed. can you please help me get this thing fixed? my dealer's phone number in athens, ga is [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

I am a fleet manager with the colorado department of transportation. we possess several of these recalled vehicles. the recall states that the fuel tank is vulnerable to fuel leakage in the event of a rear end collision. chrysler's fix is to install a trailer hitch to serve as additional structural reinforcement. i received three recall notices some months ago. those notices stated that at that time, chrysler did not have sufficient parts to effect the repairs, but that they would contact us when the parts were in stock. we heard nothing from chrysler, when i received notices for 15 more vehicles. i contacted cherry creek dodge and was told that they had 5 hitches in stock. when my staff dropped off a vehicle for repair, they were told we would have to take them to colorado chrysler going forward. i called colorado chrysler to see if they had parts. i was told they did not, and they did not expect to see any until the end of october. they said they were not permitted to order any, and that they were limited to an automatic replenishment of 5 hitches per month. needless to say, this is ridiculous. these vehicles have a safety issue, and the chrysler dealers are dragging their feet on repairing them. meanwhile, i have employees driving unsafe vehicles. i suspect that since the newest vehicles affected by this recall are 7 years old, they are being cynical and betting that most of these vehicles will be off the road soon, so if they can drag out the process it will save them money. this is completely unacceptable! *tr

My 2005 jeep liberty driver side seat belt randomly unlatches, sometimes up to 3 times in 20 minutes as of this week. the problem began one week in july 2014 out of nowhere. i called chrysler at 1-888-992-1997, spoke with a woman named [xxx], gave her my vin number, and asked if they would replace the seatbelt given the 2002 recall of jeep liberty seat belts due to the same problem. she said they would not. she advised me to fix it on my own, and to save my receipts in case one day jeep does to decide to recall my years seat belts. i use my jeep liberty 2005 to drive my two children under three. their car seats rely on the jeep liberty 2005 seat belt as well. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Seat belt complaint after arriving for an appointment, i was unable to exit my 2005 jeep liberty renegade because the driver's seat belt latch would not release. it took several minutes to get it to do so. later, when we were shopping, my husband could not get the latch to engage as we attempted to leave. the red push portion of the release latch would not function. the red push portion of the latch was depressed, and it would not disengage for several minutes. we were stuck in the parking lot while we struggled with this issue. either way, this is a dangerous issue. in an emergency, will i become trapped and unable to escape? to be safe, we must be restrained, but it appears this seat belt is not doing its job. my husband took our 2005 jeep liberty renegade to the dealership, and they merely told him these things wear out. really? my 19-year-old honda's seat belts are still just fine! things like this should never "wear out" on a vehicle. huge safety issue! to make matters worse, the part will take at least 10 days to arrive, and we will be charged to replace it. this seems very wrong! *tr

An ongoing problem with the fuel gauge is that whenever i fill up i can drive about 20 miles (more or less) and then all of a sudden the engine light and gas light come on and the fuel gauge goes all the way to empty. which can be pretty scary the first time you see it happen and you're going 75 mph on the interstate. the second problem is the suspension. any time i turn the steering wheel it creaks. riding over even barely bumpy roads causes my car to creak and groan. it shakes horribly when driving between 50-55 or even idling but gets better when i take my foot off the gas, apply the brakes, or go at higher speeds. *tr

When you go to fill the gas tank , it overflows constantly , you cannot just stick the nozzle in and let it fill normally, you have to let it go very slowly and even then it will try to overflow. i believe this is a safety hazard. i always have gas spilled out on the pavement and on me most of the time. after researching and reading online forums, i have noticed this is a common problem and that there is a lot of frustration in trying to get someone to listen to our complaints and actually having a solution to this problem. i have also written to chrysler and haven't had any response. took it jeep to the dealership from which we purchased it , they said it wasn't under warranty and said to research online to fix the problem. had i known of this problem when we purchased the car, i would not have purchased it. *tr

I was at a full stop at a red light, and when the light turned green, made a right hand turn. during the turn i heard a loud thud from the rear passenger's side wheel area, and the back end of the car shimmied a little bit. i pulled into a shopping center about a 1/8 mile away, parked my vehicle, and got out to inspect the area i heard the noise come from. my lower control arm had almost completely snapped. i decided to inspect the driver's side rear lower control arm, which was cracking as well. i decided to look up any recalls on my make, model and year, as i take very good care of my vehicle and found this odd. turns out there is a recall for the lower control arms, the "l27" recall. i was not made aware of this by chrysler. i contacted their customer service, and was told that it would be towed to the nearest dealership for inspection; also, if i requested that my vehicle be taken to a different dealership, there would be an additional fee. it was brought to the dealership, and it was confirmed to be the recall. i asked if there were any other recalls, and i was told by the sales rep that there is another recall, this one concerning the fuel tank, which chrysler would install a free trailer hitch for to protect it from rear end collisions. the rep then informs me "but we don't have those parts, no one really has them, so we aren't doing anything about that right now". hits me for a $4,400 quote for other things they found wrong. i had my car there for a week, and i had to pay for my rental car. i was told by chrysler that it is up to the dealership to offer help with that, which this one doesn't. i told them that i should not have to pay $350 extra to cover a rental because of a recall that is their brand's fault and responsibility to repair. i am lucky i wasn't on a highway. both chrysler and dealership refuse to pay for rental car. *tr

According to nhtsa, this vehicle is subject to a voluntary recall (n46/nhtsa 13v-252) that was to commence in july 2013. i received a letter confirming this from the manufacturer over two months ago that said i would be notified when the part to correct the problem was available. i have contacted chrysler twice and no one can say when the part will be available. since the part to correct the problem was a factory and/or dealer installed option when this car was built, and since there are many manufacturers with similar parts, i can only conclude that the unreasonable delay appears to be intentional. the longer chrysler waits, the fewer jeeps will need to be repaired. of course, each day without repair presents a safety risk that also decreases the value of my vehicle. *tr

My 17 year old daughter drives this car. i have a huge problem with this vehicle having a recall and parts not being available to fix it. also this vehicle has a broken window regulator on the rear passenger door. from what i have been able to find there are thousands of people who have had to replace this part multiple times. i think this should not be the responsibility of the consumer. something is obviously not working if this has to be replaced multiple times. *tr

A year ago, my fuel tank started to intermittently overflow a huge puddle of gas at the filling station when i filled up. now it happens every time i fuel up. i took to the dealer saturday and they said its a common problem among cherokees, but not libertys and there is no recall for either vehicle. the problem is a valve clog in the fuel tank. the fix is an $1800 new fuel tank. that's not going to happen! this seems to be a dangerous problem given all the fires at gas stations recently. every time i fill up i leave a large puddle of gas on the ground, all over my car and have to ride with the windows rolled down for first half hour after filling. only affordable fix is to not fill, but that's next to impossible to gauge. seems like you should look into this jeep-wide (and i think chrysler-wide) problem. *tr

I recently purchased a 2005 jeep liberty and have found that it does not stop when full when i add gas. i've had to refill the car about 5 times since i've had the vehicle and it overflows every single time, splashing on the ground and onto me, creating dangerous puddles and a fire hazard to everyone around. it doesn't automatically shut off like all other cars do but completely bypasses the safety shut off like it should when its nearing full. i've researched this online and there are hundreds of other jeep owners who have this exact problem but there is no official recall from jeep about it. it not only affects jeep liberty but wranglers and tj and appears to happen from 2003 models and up. *tr

I was driving home after picking up my kids from school and noticed that my back end was swaying slightly. i thought it might be from a wet road surface but then noticed a crack and groan when i drove up my curb on to my driveway. i got out and looked under the vehicle and noticed that my passenger side lower control arm was completely rusted through and my rear axle was slightly skewed with the passenger tire slid forward in the wheel well. i noticed that chrysler had a recall for this very problem (safety recall l27/nhtsa 12v-085 rear suspension lower control arms) but mine was not covered because i don't live in a 'salt belt' state. i live in omaha, ne and our roads are salted every winter. i believe this is directly associated with the previous recall and would like chrysler to replace my lower control arms. *tr

Two years ago my jeep started making metallic grinding sounds and violently shaking uncontrollably. i looked under my car at the front drive shaft to see it breaking apart from the inside out. i notified chrysler and after a long conversation they agreed to fix it admitting it was a faulty part. yesterday the noises and shaking came back with the newly replaced front drive shaft. chrysler admits its a unfair situation but refuses to replace there faulty part once again. this will cause a accident as it will happen unexpectedly. thank you for taking my complaint.

Key will not come out of ignition while in "park" because the shift button will not retract automatically as designed (shift-interlock system broken). i must manually retract the shift button while in "park" to remove the key. i must also manually retract the shift button while in "drive" so that the shifter cannot accidentally be bumped out of gear by accident. *tr

I put the gas pump on automatic and went inside to get a receipt when i came back the pump had stopped and there was gas all over the side of my jeep and on the ground!*jb

I am writing regarding the recent recall of all jeep liberty's. despite what it says here, chrysler has told me they will not inspect nor install a trailer hitch on my 2005 liberty which is clearly part of the recall. did they just lie and say they would do this to avoid legal action? please investigate this.: nhtsa statement on chrysler announcement regarding action on 1993-2004 jeep grand cherokees and 2002-2007 jeep liberty's based on nhtsa?s preliminary analysis, as outlined in its recall request letter, chrysler has voluntarily agreed to conduct a safety recall of model year 2002-2007 liberty and 1993-1998 jeep grand cherokee vehicles. on vehicles in the recall that are not equipped with a tow hitch, chrysler will install a chrysler designed tow hitch free of charge, provided the condition of the vehicle can support proper installation. on vehicles in the recall that are equipped with an after market tow hitch, chrysler will assess whether the hitch and surrounding areas show evidence of sharp edges or other puncture risks. if so, chrysler will replace the tow hitch with a chrysler designed tow hitch free of charge, provided the condition of the vehicle can support proper installation. on vehicles already equipped with a chrysler designed tow hitch, chrysler will inspect the area around the tow hitch installation, and if any installation issues are identified, they will be repaired free of charge. *jb

Rear taillights have had to be replaced at least 10 times since i purchased this vehicle in 2007.i am constantly being pulled over and every mechanic is telling me that its a jeep issue but i haven't seen any recalls!!!! they say its a ground wiring problem that jeeps have...please look into this!!! *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that whenever refueling, fuel would spew from the filler neck valve. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who advised to dispense 15 gallons of fuel and no more in order to avoid the overflow. in addition, the fuel tank valve sensor was replaced. the failure recurred after the repair was performed. the dealer and manufacturer were notified, who both informed the contact that there was not a remedy to correct the problem. the approximate failure mileage was 75,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the rear of the vehicle continuously swayed from side to side making it nearly impossible to control the vehicle. the contact mentioned that the failure recurred intermittently. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the rear control arm and bushings needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 70,000 and the current mileage was 177,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty with coradonvan wild trac tour lht 225/75/r16 (n/a) tires. the contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, the rear driver's side tire blew. the contact stated that the tread became completely separated. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the tire was replaced. the technician stated that the failure was caused by low tire pressure although the contact did not agree. the dot and vin were unavailable. the approximate failure mileage was 3,000. the vehicle failure mileage was 126,000. *tr

When it rain water is entering the vehicle on the driver side. i have also noticed that the water is running along the outlets plugs of the vehicle. i have checked the vehicle and there is no sign of where the water is entering. i heard that there was a recall for this condition on other models, but didn't include jeep. *tr

Air bag light and seat belt light will not go off even though the seatbelts are fastened. all fuses ok. *tr

When i fuel up my 2005 jeep liberty there is no auto stop for gas fill up. if i try to fill tank all the way up the gas will squirt back at me, covering my vehicle, my clothing and my skin, seems very dangerous to drive after covered in gas. iv only owned the jeep a few months and this has happened many times, im very afraid to "top off" my tank and therefore my mpg is terrible, seems many people also have this issue, why has this not been a recall, seems to be a manufacture problem, with gas prices these days and all the wasted gas due to this problem its also an expensive issue as well as dangerous. *tr

While fueling up and it is full the automatic pump does not shut off till it over flows a little, it does it every time you go the pump. and you lose like a quarter of a gallon of gas out of it. *tr

Hi there, i am taking my jeep liberty for a recall on the rear suspension lower control arms to my local chrysler dealer tomorrow june 27, 2013. apparently the recall was made because the control arms are made out of a material that can corrode and break without warning causing a crash. i find this interesting because on june 26, 2012 almost a year ago to the day, i had the jeep in for a replacement of the transfer case and the mechanic replaced my front control arm noting that he had never seen such a thing, it was rotted almost completely through and those almost always outlast any vehicle they are on. i paid $549.00 to have that replaced and i would think it was the same cheap metal as the rear control arms...why wouldn't it be? anyways, i would like to be reimbursed for the repair of their cheap parts. i am also very concerned about the pending recall on the gas tank placement of my liberty which can cause a fire or explosion. i am not a mechanic and trust auto companies to keep my safety and that of my family to be paramount. if i had of known that there was a potential danger to our lives that could have been avoided i would never, ever have purchased this vehicle. i might also mention that besides the front driveshaft, the rear control arms, the transfer case replacement, i have also had the rear end redone twice now. i have the original bills for all of this work. if chrysler had any decency at all they would recall these vehicles without question. i am in ontario, canada and your sheet does not allow me to choose this option so state and zip will be incorrect. *tr

2005 jeep liberty. consumer writes in regards to vehicle fuel tank issues. *smd the consumer stated the vehicle was spilling gas, every time she filled the tank. the consumer was informed chrysler was aware of the problem and the warranty had been extended. however, upon further investigation, it was discovered that only the 2006 and 2007 were covered. the dealer then informed the consumer the cost of the repair was $1500 for the fuel tank, plus labor and any incidental charges.

While refueling the vehicle for the first time after just purchasing it, fuel gushed out of the tank after the pumped had clicked off. the pump did not overfill the tank. fuel splashed out onto the side of the vehicle and on the ground. luckily, i was not directly beside the vehicle or fuel would have splashed on me. i thought this was a fault of the pump until i happened to see a video on utube of other people experiencing the exact problem. this is a design issue with this vehicle and needs to be corrected by the manufacturer. *tr

I went to allen samuels about the gas tank and i did not get the hitch i needed. the advisor [xxx] said i needed a request from chrysler. help information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Car hit me from behind. my check engine light is on says the fuel evaporation system. *tr

When filling the fuel tank, the pump does not automatically turn off. resulting in fuel spraying all over operator, jeep, and pavement. i have read many other similar complaints, is chrysler going to step-up and recall this potentially dangerous problem before someone is seriously injured? *tr

On multiple occasions since buying the vehicle from a dealer in 2011, while filling up the gas tank the gas has not automatically shut off at the full point causing gas to flow onto the rear quarter panel, and on my hands and jeans. on multiple occasions i have had my daughter in the vehicle who is still in a car seat and must be picked up and helped in and out of the vehicle. cannot leave my daughter in the vehicle to wash fuel off my hands, and had to help her with gas on me. this has been reported many times and yet nothing has been done. before even leaving the parking lot with new vehicle dealer took vehicle and filled up gas tank, i was never notified of overflow issues at the dealership, or when the dealer returned with the vehicle. i now slow the gas pump down to avoid the overflow but it still does it just not to the point of spraying upward towards my face. *tr

I've been made aware of the possible recall regarding the fuel tanks - and i always have a gas odor in my car. it is usually much stronger after i fill my tank but i always have a gas odor. also i have the passenger back window down like many other owners. *tr

The vehicle consistently spills fuel upon filling the tank. automatic shutoffs at gas stations do not prevent this from happening. it has happened at different gas stations in different states, so i do not believe it is caused by the gas station pumping system. some spills have been up to 0.5 gallons. in my opinion this presents a severe fire hazard. *tr

Filling up the fuel tank, the automatic fuel dispenser does not stop allowing fuel to spurt out. i lose about 1/4 -1/2 gallon every time. i slow fill to help alleviate, but it doesn't always work. consistent fuel spills on the pavement and side of vehicle. also gas smell inside vehicle after filling up. *tr

2005 jeep liberty diesel. fuel/water separator leaks fuel through the heater electrical lines. known fire hazard that jeep/chrysler has not recalled. raw fuel runs out the live electrical heater lines. engine was stalling on startup. odbii code came on after a month of this "fuel leak severe". it was loosing prime while sitting due to air leaking in. found fuel leak on pre-heater connector to fuel water separator housing. found some burnt and melted plastic where connector was. i found numerous incidents of this on-line. i found a plethora of info on this and there weren't many of these vehicles sold. it seems like a serious issue. chrysler obviously knows about their mistake, when i called them they were able to sell me a new separator with an updated fuel heater connection, fixing the known issue. with new separator, no issues. should be recall. stalling out on highway speeds and losing power. could have been a serious accident. chrysler techs couldn't fix the issue when i brought it in for repair and i spent over a $1000 on other repairs they thought were causing the issue before i found the info online about the separator issue and we found the melted heater connections. *tr

Power window has failed and allowed the glass to fall inside the door on three different windows. this has happened on my gasoline 2005 liberty on three occasions beginning in 2010 and on my diesel 2005 liberty, once in 2011. *tr

Stopped at a stop light with foot on the brake when vehicle suddenly accelerated forward hitting a vehicle in the front causing a crash. no other known instance before this and no injuries. *tr

Over time, the automatic shutoff on fuel pumps at gas stations began to not shut off until after a significant amount of fuel had spilled out (up to a half gallon). at first, i thought it may be the design of different pumps, so i experimented with different stations. i found that no matter what style pump or station i am at, this continues to occur. i have had to resort to estimating how much gasoline i need based on my gage prior to turning the vehicle off. another option is to underestimate and never really have a full tank. i have found that severely slowing the pump down toward the end of what i think is the amount of gasoline i need for a full tank will usually (but not always) get the pump to shut off in time prior to overflowing. although i have gotten better at estimating, there are still times that gasoline overflows. aside from a fire hazard on the vehicle and on the ground at the pump, the gasoline can cause body damage over time. this has nothing to do with attempting to "top off" the tank after the pump shuts off. there is no top off room with this vehicle. i have had other vehicles that could take an extra gallon or more after the automatic shutoff, but this one does not. after looking at several forums and other online posts, i discovered that there are many other owners who have experienced this problem. i contacted chrysler, left my information with them to be processed, and was told i'd be called back. they called back and left a voicemail saying that they would not be taking any action to fix it and that i could call back if i had any questions. i called back and could not get the agent that worked on my claim to call me back. *tr

When i fill the gas tank, i get a back splash of gas once the tank is full. cannot use the automatic shut off on the gas pump. i have to estimate as close as i can how much gas i can put into tank. if i over estimate, gas back splashes out and spills out onto pavement, onto me and vehicle. very concerned about safety of gas tank and the risk of gas igniting. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that she received notification of nhtsa campaign id number 06v288000 (suspension: front lower ball joints) and took the vehicle to the dealer for recall repairs. the dealer refused to perform the recall service because the driver and passenger side upper ball joints were corroded. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure was reported to the manufacturer, but the manufacturer refused to provide any financial assistance for additional repairs outside of the recall. the failure and current mileage was 83,000.

As i was driving down the road my window just dropped into the door. i was driving my foster dog to adoptions. when i pulled over to see what happened he jumped out if the open window. since then the only window that works is the driver side. apparently this is an issue with the liberty. i thank god a child was not in the seat when the window went down. i have informed jeep but they do not care. *tr

My jeep liberty 2005 has always since new splashed gas back from tank when filling up. i didn't know others had this problem until i read this complaint page. it did it new and has continued to splash back alot of gas onto the body of the car and on the pavement in front of gas tanks when filling up tank at any location. i tend to try to stop filling before full to stop this problem. with so many complaints you should require this problem be repaired. this is dangerous for me and others at the station if just one person comes by smoking. please acknowledge that this is my formal complaint in case there is ever a death or situation that this become fatal. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that while driving approximately 3 mph in the driveway, the brake pedal was depressed. the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated without and then crashed into the side of a brick house and two other parked vehicles. the driver sustained a minor injury to the shoulder. a police report was filed of the incident. the vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the defect. the approximate failure mileage was 83,696.

We had this jeep from day one. when you fill the tank it worked great until about 2 years ago. now when you fill the thank at the very end of fueling it will kick gas all over the out side of the car and if you are standing near it you will be covered. i have had it looked at and they say it is the tank and that i will need a new gas tank. this is a manufacturer defect and i think it should be replaced by jeep.

I had to have two window regulators repaired. since then i have had to have all the window regulators repaired some of them multiple times for a total of eight. currently i have 2 more that need to be replaced. i had customer care at chrysler discount the repair of two of them through a complaint procedure at jeep in july 2011. they refuse to help any more because of the previous repair work provided. *tr

When filling the gas tank the fuel spews out and does not automatically shut off. this happens at different gas stations and started happening at approximately 50,000 miles. *tr

When filling the gas tank, the fuel spews out of the tank instead of the pump shutting off. this happens at all filling stations and different types of fueling nozzles. the side of the car and my shoes and pants were covered in gas. the gas station bay was also covered in gas. this is extremely dangerous. since the fuel pump warns about "re-entering a car" or "using a cell phone" around a gas pump; how dangerous is driving with clothing covered in gas, side of the car covered in gas and how dangerous is leaving a gas puddle at the station? chrysler apparently is replacing some tanks or putting in an "extension" valve on some cars, but mine is not under their warranty. this is not only a fire hazard, but a health issue as well! *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the window regulators had failed in every window. the contact stated that the regulators had to be replaced eight times. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer and the dealer replaced the window regulator but the failure recurred. the contact called the manufacturer regarding the regulator. the manufacturer stated there was nothing they could do regarding the regulator. the contact stated that the passenger rear window failed to close. the failure mileage was 75,000.

Passenger side seat belt will not retrack back and passengers cannot wear it........i bought this vehicle on 8/2012 with 90,000 miles on it! its a safety issue and dealers want alot of money to fix it..........i read on jeep forumscomplaints that many of these vehicles have had this issue........... please tell me i can get it fixed asap without costing any money ...........its a safety hazard! thank you kindly. *tr ## vin failed ##

The rear passenger side window regulator broke due to wear of a plastic component. the window slides down completely and causes the car to be open to the elements/thieves. the rear driver side window regulator had the same issue the previous year. *tr

It started backing fuel out of the filler tube almost everytime as the fuel tank approached a full level. at first it started intermittently but lately, it does every time which results in a fuel spill on the ground, down the side of the vehicle, and on me, if i'm not paying attention. it seems dangerous. the same thing happened on my 07 chrysler aspen and chrysler answered the problem with a recall and extended warranty on that item. it has worked perfectly since then. i've talked to the dealer and they don't seem to know the answer...even though it seems likely to me that it is the same problem as the chrysler (maybe the same system as the chrysler). if they seemed more positive about the repair, i would pay to have it fixed. *tr

When filling the gas tank, the automatic pump shutoff does not work causing the gasoline to shoot out and all over the car and myself. this does not happen at just one gas station, but at all of them and has occurred repeatedly since buying the car last august. *tr

Failure of steering column rod to actuate ignition sense switch caused vehicle no start and driver stranded. rod goes between key cylinder and ignition switch. key can still be turned, but if ignition switch does not actuate engine does not start. there are no dealer serviceable components in steering column. this leads to the entire steering column needing replacement for the failure of a 3mm aluminum cast rod. dealer estimate of $1200 for repair. pictures are available. *tr

Every time i fill the gas tank, if i leave the gas pump auto fill lever on then gas will spew out instead of the gas lever stopping. at first, i thought it was the lever malfunctioning, but after having the same problem recur at different gas stations and pumps, i knew it was my vehicle. i have not had it inspected but have found a similar problem exists with others owning the same vehicle model. this is obviously not safe when gas pours out onto the vehicle, ground, and operator, as well as a malfunction that costs extra money. i have learned not to pump a full tank of gas into the tank and thus avoid the problem, but i am concerned this problem could cause decreased gas mileage or other issues within the fueling system. *tr

The check engine light appeared, and i had the code run which stated the problem being the torque clutch converter (tcc) solenoid circuit. upon researching possible solutions and cost for repair, i noticed many others with this model vehicle had the same problem appear. since no recalls were available, i had the tcc replaced at the recommendation of my research and the opinion of the local shop who said the problem was not electrical. at this point, the new tcc has been replaced for approximately two months and the check engine light has not reappeared. however, ever since the light originally came on, i have noticed the acceleration and idle have been very strange. while the vehicle does not stall, it does make odd noises when 1) driving at speeds around 1-30 mph, 2) driving at low speeds up an incline, and 3) when moving in reverse initially. *tr

Whenever i fill up at the gas station, the gas pours out of the filler neck before the pump stops. it happens every time i fill up, no matter what station i go to. i now have to stop short of filling all the way, otherwise the gas spills all over the side of the truck and the fumes get into the inside of the cabin. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that when refueling the vehicle, fuel spilled out of the filler neck valve. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis. the technician stated that the fuel tank would have to be replaced. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 105,000. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the vehicle would suddenly accelerate when driving at any speed. the failure was experienced numerous times. the vehicle was taken to the dealer to have a diagnostic performed. the failure was located at the accelerator pedal, which failed due to corrosion. the accelerator pedal was replaced however, the failure was not corrected. the manufacturer was not made a ware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 20,000 and the current mileage was 72,428.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that while driving 20 mph, the front driver's side ball joint malfunctioned, making the vehicle difficult to steer. the contact was able to move to the side of the road and the vehicle was towed to a local mechanic. the mechanic stated that the malfunction was caused by rusted ball joints. the mechanic replaced both front ball joints. an authorized dealer was contacted and advised that the vehicle was previously repaired under the nhtsa campaign id number: 06v288000 (suspension). the failure mileage was 130,000.

The vehicle was being filled with fuel from a standard fuel pump equipped with an automatic shutoff sensor. when the fuel tank became full, the sensor was not triggered, resulting in fuel spraying from the fuel tank, covering the side panel of the vehicle, the ground, as well as the person fueling the vehicle. this issue has been recurring 100% of the time when the vehicle is filled using an automatic shutoff pump. different gas stations have been used with the same results. this is obviously a safety hazard considering that the person filling the tank and the car are becoming soaked in fuel, and an environmental issue due to the amount of fuel being spilled onto the ground. *tr

Defective window regulators. everyone knows about them. just type in 2005 jeep liberty window regulator and see all the hits. the window regulators are bad on all jeep libertys from 2002-2007. i have sent information before but it seems no one cares until someone dies. i have contacted the dealer, chrysler, bbb, the state attorney general and several tv stations. i have also told several federal government agencies including nhtsa but again no one cares about the american citizen. the ones who pay the bills. when it fails the window slides down without any warning so your car becomes unsafe and you are unable to lock it or secure the car. the glass can slide down in the door or break in the door. then you take it to the dealer and he charges you $400 to fix a known defective. chrysler and the dealers love it. you make money when you sell a car with a defect and then charge the person everytime the defect fails. it is a win win for chrysler and its dealers. the public is getting the shaft. imagine not going certain places because you are afraid your car is not safe to take there or not going over night because of your car. how about i stop at a red light and a guys gets in my back seat with a knife or a gun and kills me due to my broken window regulator. the window falls down and the rain stains the seats another issue the seats stain even from water. not to mention the other issues i have had the belt tensior, the horn, the roof rack, the parking brake, the master cylinder, window regulators, window regulators, the list goes on and on. i see there are over 60 complaints about it on your website so when can i expect something to be done. when will there be a recall on window regulators on jeep liberty's? maybe we need someone to go postal at a dealership to get attention. not me. there is a known defect and with tons of evidence so fix it. *tr

All 2005 jeep liberty's have defective window regulators that break even when the window is not used. chrysler knows about it but does not care. they sell a car with a defective product and when it breaks they have the dealer replace the defective part with another defective part and charge you $400. it is fraud plain and simple. when the window drops down without warning the glass can break and injure someone. items can be tossed into the car such as stones or debris from other drivers. people can enter your car and attack you or kill you since the car cannot be locked. you cannot leave items in your car because it is never secure. when the window falls air rushes into your car if you are driving along with rain, snow and sleet which makes it difficult to drive depending on what window it is. it stains the seats. i have contacted other gov.'t agencies and some tv stations. if nothing is done i will contact other tv stations until something is done. *tr

Jeep liberty's from 2002-2007 all have defective window regulators. chrysler knew this yet continued to knowingly use these defective window regulators. why not, after they break chrysler gets to sell the dealership another defective window regulator and the dealership marks it up and then installs it for $400. it is a great scam. almost a little ponzi scheme. please look on the internet you will find numerous complaints about this problem. the window falls down at any time without warning. it can fall down while driving which is very startling to all of a sudden hear air rushing in the car behind you. it can fall down when the car is stopped at a stop sign or parked in front of your house. no matter when it happens it renders you car totally unsecured. anyone can enter your car since the window will now no longer stay up. any items in your car are now there for the taking by any thieves. that is the good news, the bad news is that your car is unsecured and you can be attack or killed at any time. someone can enter your car and hide behind your seat or if you stop and they see the window down they can just enter it and you cannot stop them. the lighter side is rain or snow coming it and staining your seats beyond repair. another problem with the jeep is that even condensation stains the seats and you can't get them out. this does not even include some of the other issues: belt tensioner, ball joints, roof rack, master cylinder, emergency brake shoes (which i believe were recalled and i paid for), horn stuck on, electrical issues, leaking windshield, fuel relay switch,scratches in the paint, power door locks on rear door, weatherstrip, lights and not getting everything i was promised from the dealer. this vehicle has limited my travel. you cannot even go anywhere without wondering what will happen to your car when you get back. please recall it. *tr

Gas tank "burps" out gas all over the side of my car and onto the ground as soon as the gas pump clicks off. has landed on my feet a few times. it's dangerous and there should be a recall. i've seen so many people with the same issues. not acceptable. it's a safety issue and it's happening to thousands of jeep drivers. *tr

I was parked and preparing to leave work when my window dropped down into the door. i see that a recall was done on this same issue for my vehicle, but not my year.. i have a 2005 and they are only covering this issue for 2006 forward... why.. if it is an issue with this model, than shouldn't the other years be covered as well? *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that while parked, the rear driver's side window collapsed into the door panel. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. the technician advised that the window regulator and glass would have to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred twice. the vehicle was not further repaired. the vin was not available. the approximate failure mileage was 30,000.

This is the second incident on the same vehicle with the right front wheel falling off due to the five studs being sheared off. first incident was @ 104104mi and second at 152212mi. all mileage is highway mileage on the 4x4. no of-road rough treatment. *tr

Increasingly, gas pump auto shut offs fail. at this point, 100% of the time, the gas pump auto shutoff fails, spilling several ounces of fuel on to the vehicle side and the ground beneath it. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle made loud whining noises. the vehicle had not been diagnosed. the manufacturer was notified but stated there were no recalls for the vin. the contact did extensive research on the internet and determined that the failure was the power steering pump. the contact also stated that the windows in the vehicle randomly open independently. the vehicle had not been repaired. the failure and current mileage was 31,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the vehicle could not be started and the steering wheel was locked in place. the vehicle was later towed to the dealer where they advised her that the steering column needed to be replaced due to the ignition rod being fractured. the vehicle was repaired for the steering column. the failure recurred six months later. the manufacturer was contacted and offered no assistance. the failure mileage was unknown. the current mileage was unknown.

Was stopped at a red light waiting to turn left. when the stop light turned green i attempted to proceed with the vehicle. initially when i depressed the accelerator nothing happened. after about 15 seconds the vehicle lurched dramatically forward into opposing traffic. we were very lucky that the oncoming cars were able to swerve to avoid the vehicle. i took it in to a repair facility and the inspection showed that it was a transmission failure.the vehicle has been previously repaired on 5 separate occasions for similar transmission problems. in speaking with the mechanic performing the repair he indicated that chrysler had severe problems with the 42rle transmissions. i'm filing this complaint as i am very concerned that manufacturer has been allowed to produce a vehicle with an inherent defect that creates a severe safety impairment. *tr

Upon normally fueling vehicle, gas will expel from fill tube when tank is near full. this causes a serious and potentially dangerous outflow of gasoline onto pump operator, vehicle and pavement. gasoline has already damaged paint finish on vehicle. estimated environmental hazard of 1 pint per fill-up or approximately 100 pints per year. dealer charged $105 to test for condition and it was determined that fuel system spillage is caused by defective filler tube and vapor tube. repair cost estimated at $640 parts and labor. vehicle manufacturer must be responsible for defective vehicle system and not vehicle owner. this is not a maintenance item, nor was it caused by mis-use. this vehicle defect has serious safety and environmental concerns and this condition has been noted, campaigned and recalled previously on many other chrysler vehicles. request that vehicle oem pay to replace defective parts to avoid any further contamination to the environment, avoid further vehicle damage and eliminate on-going risks to persons. *tr

Just like many other jeep liberties, fuel spews out, when i am filling the tank up. it does not matter which station, or brand that i use. the pump shuts of, followed by about 1/4 to 1/2 gallon of fuel coming back out. this is dangerous to the environment, the body of the vehicle, and to me. i had the problem diagnosed at a local chrysler dealership as the vehicle needing a new fuel tank. i contacted chrysler this morning, and they said since there isn't a recall, they would not do anything to help me out. since this is obviously a manufacturing defect, since so many people have the exact same problem, chrysler should be fixing this problem, at their expense! i should not have to pay to fix chrysler's mistakes. *tr

Jeep will not start, dealer claims is a broken steel piece in the ignition in the steering column. the car has not had a accident or any other damage. contacted jeep corporate and they refuse any help due to mileage and age dealer cost for repair will be approx $700.00 for used. need to replace the whole steering column. a new one will be approc $1300.00 and the part is not available and they have no estimated time of getting new part. they quoted it could months. this will be third time in less than 3 years the car is in the dealer for not starting. each time it is a different repair. the steering column is not damaged. *tr

Every time i fill up my gas tank, it overflows. i put on the lock and then it pumps until it overflows. gas then drips down the side of my car and onto the ground, creating a fire hazard. once this happens, i then can smell the gas fumes inside my car as well. *tr

I can't put more than $1 worth of gas in at a time. fuel continues to back up onto me and the ground. very harmful to my family and the environment. upon doing some research it seems to be a major problem that shows up here and on many websites. jeep has already put out a service bulletin, but there needs to be a recall. *tr

Along with many others, my 2005 jeep liberty overflows with fuel about 80% of the time when i go to fill it. i have to fill it halfway and then slowly top it off the rest of the way or risk an overflow of up to a liter of fuel all over the side of the jeep and onto the ground. it does not matter whether i am holding the pump handle or if i set it to automatically shut off. this is at the least a very messy and environmental pollution, and at worst it is a very dangerous fire and explosion hazard. this is also adding to the cost of ownership as i lose an extra dollar or so of gas almost every time i fill up. i realize this may be an expensive fix, but chrysler / gm need to determine how to fix this problem before people get hurt. please investigate this problem! thank you for your time. *tr

On a rainy morning on 11/13/2012 while merging onto the interstate my jeep liberty went into a skid and i lost control of the vehicle and hit the roadside barrier. the front and back bumpers were damaged. the problem was not the skid but that the steering wheel locked in place and could not be steered to help control the truck. this had happened at least twice before when the truck went into a skid. my husband had asked our local service dealer about it and he said that this was part of the jeep suspension and was not a defect in the vehicle operation. based on that inquiry, i thought the first time this happened, that maybe it was just a fluke. however, now i am not so sure. i do not believe that the steering column on a vehicle should locked in place and not allow the vehicle to be controlled. additionally, i have been waiting eight months for my local jeep dealer to get the part for the latest safety recall, l27/nhtsa 12v-085 rear suspension lower control arms. we checked last month and the service department stated that we were still number two on the list and when they got the repair part we would get the repair part. we have been told since may 2012 that we were number two on the repair list. i need answers on why my steering wheel does this or i need to get rid of this vehicle because if this happens again i might have very different results than the past two times. *tr

First the drivers rear regulator failed, causing the window to fall and break inside the door. i replaced both the window and the regulator. six months later the passenger rear regulator failed and the window dropped in the door. this time it did not break the glass. just a month after the warranty on the driver rear expired, it failed again. now i have no working back windows. the service manager at the local dealership acknowledged this as an issue but stated there is no recall. he recommended that i take it up with chrysler. they claim it the problem exists but not with this year. they told me because i did not buy it new nor use the dealership for my service they would not help. with the glass breaking this is more than an inconvenience, it is dangerous. chrysler knows this is an issue and is ripping people off by charging them over $400.00 to replace these with parts that will fail again. *tr

Gasoline spills out of jeep when being filled. the gas handle stops automatically and then gas pours out. i have to have the attendant pour the litter on the spill. often times it gets on me. this happens overtime i fill up regardless of what station! i am upset to see that this is a problem for many other owners. this should've a recall. *tr

Three out of four windows- loose and disconnected from window assembly. possible dangers from tossed/flailing glass. one would think chrysler would be concerned with this safety issue with inferior parts and post recalls on defective window regulators and assist their clients for repairs of these part in order to avoid a possible disastrous situation.

When pumping gas i can only put in less than a gallon at a time or it will all spit back out of the tank. i have been to 3 mechanics and they all said its a common problem with jeep liberty's and they need to replace the tank... think i'll wait and see if chrysler does the right thing and recalls the problem seeing how hundreds of other owners have the same problem. *tr

The plastic bushing in the transfer case shifter cable broke and the transfer case could not be shifted (4wd, neutral, 2wd). ours got stuck in 2wd so we able to drive it. this could happen without warning and apparently often does. this is a problem if the unit gets stuck in neutral the vehicle could not be moved out of the way of oncoming objects or if 4wd is needed it may not be able to be shifted into 4wd. apparently this same plastic bushing is at both ends of the shifter cable and is used in most other 4wd jeeps. the problem is common enough that at lest one after market company is marketing a redesigned shifter cable that does not use the plastic bushings. *tr

I wanted to include my vehicle incident in regards to the complaints on the jeep suv fires. i thought it was necessary to include my entry, because unlike other incidents mentioned in the investigation, my vehicle spontaneously caught fire while i was driving it and was not the result of impact from a crash. it was a friday evening and i was traveling home on the highway during rush hour traveling with the flow of traffic at about 65 mph. all of the sudden, and without warning, my vehicle started losing speed at a rapid pace. thankfully, i was in the first lane and was able to pull immediately into the breakdown lane. all of my dashboard lights came on and while i was leaning over to inspect what could possibly be the problem, the hood of the vehicle suddenly burst into flames. i exited the vehicle swiftly and luckily a tow truck driver who had saw the smoke immediately called 911. the car was engulfed in flames in less then 5 minutes. had i not been able to exit the vehicle or had children restrained in the back seat, there could have been serious injuries or possibly a fatality. i reported the incident to chrysler after going through my insurance. there response was a polite letter telling me they were sorry for the incident, but were not responsible. the vehicle was less than 2 years old at the time and serviced regularly. the finding of the fire dept.'s inspection was inconclusive, but i was told in confidence that it seemed more than likely it was a faulty issue with the vehicle. after the incident, i took multiple photos of the interior and exterior of the jeep, which included under the hood since we suspected the engine was at fault. if they are useful to your ongoing investigation, please feel free to contact me so that i can email them along. thank you. *tr

When filling up my jeep for the first time (i had just bought it the previous day), the pump kicked off, and before i had time to put my hand on the pump handle, gas came spewing back out at me. about 1 - 2 gallons came out. i ended up getting gas all over my shoes and the bottom of my pants, and all over the side of my vehicle and the tire. *js

When going to the gas pump to get fuel and placing it on automatic, when full the pump shuts off and then it "burps" back at me. spilling gasoline on me and everything around me. it is also ruining the paint on my vehicle, spilling all over it every time this happens. i have owned the jeep since 2006 and it just started doing it about four months ago. my tech said it must be a faulty fuel tank filler neck. it was replaced at the cost of $443.50. and that did not solve the problem. he thought someone had tried to steal my gas and damaged it. it still burps every time i fill it up. i consider this very dangerous, besides being a nuisance and damaging other things. i have checked this out on the internet and find that this is happening to several others who are owners of jeep liberty's. there is a demo on you tube . *jb

When filling the fuel tank, as the fuel level nears the fuel tank capacity the gasoline splashes out of the filler neck and spreads down the side of the jeep liberty and forms a large puddle on the pavement of the gas station. this large puddle of gas could cause a fire/explosion if ignited, thereby killing the occupant of this jeep liberty and other customers at the gas station. in addition to this if the large puddle of gasoline is not ignited, after about 10 minutes the spilled fuel has all evaporated into the atmosphere causing pollution to our atmosphere. i am concerned that i am violating epa emission laws. *tt

This is the fourth time that i have had a window regulator problem. the second time on the same window. i have heard that it is caused from overuse but the only window regulator that has not yet needed to be replaced is my driver window which is the one i use the most! this obviously has nothing to do with it. it is simply a faulty part that they do not feel is significant enough to find a permanent solution for. i fear that it will happen when i am on vacation or something and a storm will ruin my car without my knowing or my car will be "broken" into or even stolen. i know there are many other people with the same issues happening multiple times but not everyone knows to report it. i hope that enough people complaining about the same faulty part will make them do something about it. *tr

My jeep recently was unable to start the engine. it was fine just the night before with no indication of a problem, but in the morning i turned the key and all i got was a click at the relay; the starter never engaged and the engine would not turn over. after much diagnosis it was discovered the problem was due to the end breaking off of a small metal cylinder which rotates to engage the starter; the cylinder is located on the left underside of the steering column. i was informed by the mechanic that the cylinder, nor the housing containing the cylinder, is sold as a separate part... i was forced to replace the entire steering column assembly to the tune of $300 (the labor was another $200, and a new ignition cylinder an additional $30), to fix this one small part that probably cost about $5 to make. in my research online, i found that this is a common, well-known problem with jeeps, with many people complaining on forums about the same issue. the only action i knew to take was to file a complaint here to hopefully initiate a recall of this part so that it either a) is replaced with a part made of better material so as to stop so many from breaking, and b) stops leaving people stranded with a non-working vehicle with no warning whatsoever. *js

Several months ago, started having difficulty fueling vehicle. fuel splashes back up out of tank. nozzle continually shuts off because gas overflows. occurs at all pumps-not just high pressure. this happens during entire fill process, even when filling an empty tank. requires hand holding nozle and filling at extremely slow rate. even at very slow rate, must repeatedly stop all flow every few seconds or pump nozle will automatically shut off due to gas overflow. takes extreme amount of time to fill entire tank and never sure it is full due to nozle shut-off continually being activated with back up of gas. research on internet shows ongoing problem with other jeeps as well. *tr

Bought liberty new in 2005. on 03-26-08, left rear window regulator broke for no reason. repair not covered under warranty-cost $325.00. other owners had same complaint, buy per jeep, no recall. on 12-16-09, right front window regulator broke and window dropped into door panel. still no recall. per service advisor jeep now using a different "fix"" and replaced regulator should not have same problem. repair cost $381.00. on 11-03-10, left rear window regulator (previously replaced in 03-08) broke again. window had not even been used dozen times since previously replaced. filed complaint with jeep. also researched and saw many jeep owners having same repetitive problem. was advised by chrysler customer assistance center that it was a vendor issue and no recall in effect. after battle with chrysler, they finally agreed to reimburse me 100% for 3rd window and the cost of the 2 prior repairs minus $100.00 deductible. they reimbursed me $606.00. *tr

When filling the car with gas it does not stop it pops out and if you are in the way will go all over you on the ground and the car. plus you are paying for gas that is not in your car. *tr

While driving to my workplace, i noticed my jeep swaying on the road, which i first attributed to icy road conditions. however, when i stopped the vehicle i saw that my rear control arms were severely rusted, with the left rear arm almost sheared through with rust. i was able to nurse the jeep liberty two miles to a safe parking place with my flashers on and driving about 10 mph. thankfully i was on back country roads and not driving at higher speeds! who knows what might have occurred if i had been driving at highway speeds? hopefully, i can be compensated by chrysler corporation for the cost of my repairs and towing. i find it unfathomable that such critical components would rust through on a vehicle with 70,000 miles. *tr

When refueling the vehicle, gas splashes or spits back out of the gas tank prior to the gas station pump turning off. the amount of gas that splashes or spits out of the tank varies but occurs 100% of the time at all gas stations. the slashed volume appears to be a few ounces up to a quart and has splashed back up to a distance of 24". the gas usually splashes on the vehicle itself and on the ground and will splash on the operator if he/she is close enough to the tank or holding the pump. the gas has splashed/spit back on me a few times. the failure occurs regardless of the pumping speed - it occurs with the pump on the top notch (fast), the bottom notch (slow), anywhere in between and also if you fill it manually without the notches. the vehicle is never "topped off'." *tr

The windows have fallen into my door well because, as i'm told by jeep service advisors, because of defective plastic clips installed on their window assemblies. this has been an ongoing problem since i've owned this jeep and i consider it to be a safety issue because i live in the heart of carjackings, thefts, & crime in general, and cannot lock my car because i have no windows. (i am also elderly, female & consider myself to more vulnerable to crime chrysler has agreed to reimburse me, but then re-engaged, and would rather have a "cat fight" than to step up plate & pay for the problem they have created for the consumer! many jeep owners, like myself have had their window fall more than 10 times @ $400.00 per fix = $4,000 x 10 million sold (approx.) = $40,000,000. staggering and intentional profits when the have created intentional defects to pass on to the consumer! chrysler has bullied me and their greed has caused me much stress and unnecessary expense due to the fact that i am on limited income and cannot sustain this expense. i will never own another jeep simply because of chrysler's apathy, lack of fairness to the foundation who built their lousy corp - the americans! they are aware this problem is widespread, but chose to treat each case as isolated, and in most cases will not pay. bail them out and we get ripped off in return! *tr

I was traveling 70 mph on the freeway when i very slightly let off the accelerator as i came over a bridge. at that point, part of the jeep wanted to go straight and the other part wanted to go off the road. it truly felt like the jeep was going to roll. i slowed down and managed to keep it going straight until i could safely pull off the freeway. had it towed to my dealer who informed me that the left rear lateral arm connecting axle to the frame rusted through and became disconnected. they also said that the right lateral arm is close to rusting though as well. although the lateral arms were on backorder from chrysler, the dealer managed to find one from another dealer and replaced the left arm. we agreed to order the right lateral arm and replace it before it too becomes disconnected. *tr

Was driving about 35 mph during rush hour when i heard a loud noise, followed by a grinding noise from the rear of the vehicle. noise went away and i picked up speed returning to about 35 when vehicle lost all control of back tires. fishtailed as if i was slipping on an ice patch. was able to pull over without hitting anything but was very close to the car in the left lane. mechanic told me the right trailer arm was completely rusted through and snapped. left trailer arm also showed signs of corrosion and is very weak. was about 2 miles from getting on the highway during rush hour. could have been much caused an accident. *tr

Right rear lower control arm rotted out and fractured. vehicle becomes almost impossible to control. upon inspection, the left lower control arm was so thin a screwdriver could be pushed through the metal with little effort. the control arm was visibly sound to naked eye but rotted from inside out. *tr
