STRUCTURE:BODY, VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
REAR WINDOW FELL INTO DOOR WHILE DRIVING. WINDOW REGULATORS FAIL RANDOMLY AND JEEP IS NOT OFFERING A SOLUTION. THIS IS THE 5TH FAILURE OF THE WINDOWS ON MY 2007 JEEP. ALL WINDOWS HAVE FAILED AND BEEN REPLACED, NOW THE REPLACEMENTS ARE FAILING. *TR

WHILE USING THE PASSENGER SIDE BACK POWER WINDOW OPERATOR TO CLOSE THE WINDOW THERE WAS A CLICK AND THE WINDOW BEGAN TO SLOWLY SINK BACK INTO THE DOOR. THE CAR WAS PARKED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THIS IS MY SECOND WINDOW REGULATOR TO GO BAD. THE DRIVER'S SIDE BACK WINDOW REGULATOR HAS ALSO GONE BAD. IT WAS SCHEDULED FOR REPAIR. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EVERYTIME I FILL THE GAS TANK, IT DOES NOT SHUT OFF WHEN THE FUEL REACHES THE NOZZLE. THE GAS SHOOTS OUT AND RUNS DOWN THE CAR. IT HAS GOT ON MY CLOTHES AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I HOPE YOU CAN GET THE PROBLEM ADDRESSED SOON. *TR

I OWN A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT, WITH NO WARRANTY. A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE REAR, DRIVER SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR AND MOTOR WENT BAD AND I HAD TO REPLACE THIS OUT OF POCKET. WHAT IS MORE FRUSTRATING IS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY DRIVER FRONT WIDOW NOW. SINCE MY LAST REPAIR, LARRY H. MILLER JEEP IN SANDY UTAH HAS INFLATED THE PRICE OF THE PART. THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF THE NEED OF THIS FAULTY PART AND ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CUSTOMERS. I NOW HAVE NO WINDOW (IT IS CRACKED INSIDE MY DOOR AND I AM NOT IN FINANCIAL POSITION TO REPLACE IT). IT IS APPROXIMATELY 30 DEGREES IN MY STATE RIGHT NOW, THIS IS ALMOST UNBEARABLE. I HAVE ALSO OWNED A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY PRIOR TO THIS AND THE REAR DRIVER WINDOW REGULATOR AND MOTOR ALSO WENT OUT. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THIS AT MY COST. THIS MAKES THREE TIMES FOR THE SAME PART! I AM ASKING FOR A RECALL AND FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THIS AT NO ADDITIONAL COST TO ME. I FEEL IT IS ALREADY UNFAIR THAT THEY PROVIDE A BAD PART, BUT EVEN WORSE THAT THEY INFLATED THE PRICE PART RECENTLY AND ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CONSUMERS. THIS IS ALSO UNSAFE, I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH A GARBAGE BAG TO MY WINDOW WHICH BLOCKS MY LINE OF SIGHT, BUT IS THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP DRY IN THIS FALL/WINTER WEATHER. PLEASE HELP ME, I AM AT A LOSS RIGHT NOW AND THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. THE DEALERSHIP'S NUMBER FOR WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IS: (866) 653 3505. THANK YOU AGAIN. THANK YOU *TR

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
I PURCHASED A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED EDITION 4X4 ON MAY 26, 2012 FROM LOCAL DEALERSHIP. ON SEPTEMBER 16, 2012, I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND REAR PASSENGER WINDOW HAD SLID HALF WAY DOWN THROUGH THE NIGHT. DISCOVERED FROM INTERNET RESEARCH THAT PLASTIC PARTS ARE FAULTY AND KNOWN BY CHRYSLER FOR YEARS. YET NO RECALL MADE TO CORRECT THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM. REPLACING WITH SAME PLASTIC PARTS IS NO SOLUTION. MY CONCERN IS SAFETY AND SECURITY. WHY HAVE AN ALARM SYSTEM WHEN ANY OR ALL FOUR WINDOWS ARE PRONE TO FAILURE? STEEL REPLACEMENT PARTS CAN BE PURCHASED ONLINE INDEPENDENTLY, BUT AS A CONSUMER I FEEL CHRYSLER SHOULD BE OBLIGATED TO CORRECT THIS AT NO COST. THIS REQUIRES IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. WHY WAIT FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF A CHILD FALLING OUT OF A MOVING VEHICLE. THERE IS NO WARNING. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
WHEN GOING TO PUT THE DRIVERS WINDOW DOWN, I ACCIDENTALLY PUSHED THE SWITCH FOR THE BACK SEAT WINDOW BEHIND THE DRIVER'S SEAT. WHEN I HIT THE SWITCH IT MADE A FUNNY NOISE. SO, I LEFT THE WINDOW ALONE WITH PLANS TO GET IT FIXED. THE WINDOW WAS UP AT THIS POINT. I WENT TO WORK AND WHEN I RETURNED TO MY CAR AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE WINDOW WAS ALL THE WAY DOWN. I ATTEMPTED TO PUT IT UP USING THE SWITCH AND IT MADE THE SAME FUNNY NOISE. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ON OUR 2007 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT GASOLINE SPEWS OUT EVERYTIME WE FILL IT IF WE DO NOT SLOW THE FILLING UP WHEN WE THINK THE TANK MAY BECOMING NEAR FULL. SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU DO IT SPEWS OUT GASOLINE ONTO THE CAR AND THE PERSON FILLING IT. WE NEVER PUT IT ON AUTO TURN OFF WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK BECAUSE IT WILL SPEW OUT. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY GAS STATION IN SEVERAL STATES. THIS DANGEROUS TO THE PERSON FILLING THE TANK, TO THOSE AT THE GAS STATION, AND TO THE ENVIRONMENT. A SAFETY RECALL BY CHRYSLER JEEP OUGHT TO BE PUT IN MOTION SINCE MANY OTHERS HAVE POSTED THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

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

POWER TRAIN
I BACKED MY JEEP LIBERTY SPORT INTO A TURN AROUND AREA, NEEDED TO PUT IT IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE. I PUT IT IN 4 WHEEL HI, THEN PULLED FORWARD. ONCE I WAS OUT OF THE TURN AROUND AREA I PUT IT BACK IN 2 WHEEL DRIVE. AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING VERY SLUGGISH. I STOPPED TO MAKE SURE NOTHING WAS STUCK IN THE TIRES OR IN THE WHEEL WELLS. I CONTINUED DRIVING AND IT DID NOT WANT TO GO ABOVE 40 MILES AN HOUR. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES I HEARD A RATHER LOUD POPPING SOUND, FOLLOWED BY WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A CHAIN BEING DRAGGED UNDER THE VEHICLE. I STOPPED TO LOOK UNDER IT BUT DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING, SO I SLOWLY MADE MY WAY TOWARDS HOME. AFTER ANOTHER FEW MINUTES IT WAS BASICALLY UNDRIVABLE, SO I STOPPED AT A FRIENDS HOUSE AND GOT A RIDE HOME. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE MECHANICS THEY TOLD ME THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT HAD BROKEN IN HALF. I GOT THAT REPAIRED JUST TO BE TOLD THAT THE REAR PINION IS SHOT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN FINE UP TILL THAT POINT, AND I HAD USED 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON OTHER OCCASIONS. NOW FOR SOME REASON AFTER USING IT THIS TIME I HAD A $600 BILL TO REPLACE THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT AND WHAT I AM BEING TOLD IS AT LEAST ANOTHER $600 TO $900 BILL FOR THE REAR PINION. ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH THIS? *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
SINCE I BOUGHT THE JEEP LIBERTY 2007 HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. ALL THE OUTSIDE SMOKE ENTERS IN THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK IT TO THE CHRYSLER SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES BUT THEY SAID IT WAS FINE, BUT DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY. THIS INCONVENIENCE HAS AFFECTED US IN OUR HEALTH CAUSE EVERY AFTERNOON MY WIFE WHO DRIVES THE JEEP COME HOME WITH HEAD PAIN AND OUR DAUGHTER HAS ASTHMA AND THIS PROBLEM GET HER WORSE. LAST WEEK WE CALL TO THE CHRYSLER SERVICE AND EXPLAINED AGAIN WHAT WAS HAPPENING, THE MAN SAID THAT THEY NOTICE THAT THIS MODEL HAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT JUST AT THE SIDE OF THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM AND THERE WERE MORE PEOPLE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
