ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
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

TRAILER HITCHES
THERE WAS NOT AN ACCIDENT. I'M JUST HAVING A VERY HARD (IMPOSSIBLE) TIME GETTING ANY JEEP DEALER TO PERFORM THE SAFETY RECALL N46 (INSTALLING TRAILER HITCH ON THE BACK OF JEEP TO PREVENT FIRES/EXPLOSIONS IN A COLLISION). EVERY JEEP DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME THE PARTS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. *TR

SUSPENSION
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

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY
WE JUST HAD THE TRAILER HITCH RECALL INSTALLED ON THIS JEEP LIBERTY. HOW COULD CHRYSLER'S TRAILER HITCH INSTALLATION BE APPROVED AS A PROTECTION FOR THE GAS TANK. ONLY THE RECEIVER STICKS DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TANK. THE TRAILER HITCH DOES NOT HAVE A REINFORCEMENT BAR BOLTING TO THE FRAME WELL IN FRONT OF THE TANK TO AVOID AN INCIDENT THAT COULD CAUSE TANK RUPTURE. THIS FIX IS TOTALLY INADEQUATE TO AVOID TANK RUPTURE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT NOTICE AND WILL NOT START RIGHT AWAY LEAVE SET FOR A 1/2 HOUR OR SO AND IT STARTS BACK UP BUT HORN BLOWS WIPERS COME ON AND DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK AUTOMATICALLY THIS COULD BE A REAL PROBLEM IF IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO SHUTTING OFF ON THE FREEWAY AND I CAN NOT EXIT THE VEHICLE.I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM IS IN THE (TIPM) AND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS BUT THERE IS NO RECALL. THIS IN MY OPINION IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE ESC OFF CAME ON AND THE JEEP DRIVING STRANGE . IT IS JERKING WHEN YOU ARE COMING TO A STOP. ALTHOUGH YOU ARE DRIVING IN 2ND IT IS FLASHING 4WDL. THE ESC OFF IS FLASHING. IT IS SCARY DRIVING WHEN THIS IS HAPPENING . ALSO SINCE I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW IN 2012 , I HAD TO PAY FOR THE BRAKE LIGHT TO BE CHANGE FIVE TIMES ALREADY. I THINK THESE JEEPS HAVE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. *TR
