VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
LEFT REAR WINDOW HAS FAILED 3 TIMES (9/5/08, 6/17/10, 10/16/11) AND ALL THREE TIMES THE REGULATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE RIGHT REAR WINDOW HAS FAILED ONCE (8/29/09) AND THE REGULATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. ALL 4 TIMES, THE CAR WAS PARKED AND I FOUND THE WINDOW DOWN AND WAS UNABLE TO GET IT BACK UP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE BACK AND USE THE WINDOW LOCK SO THEY ARE UNABLE TO OPEN THE WINDOW. HAVING AN UNRELIABLE WINDOW THAT CAN FALL DOWN AT ANY TIME IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR ANYONE WITH PASSENGERS IN THE BACK. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO CHRYSLER AND THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THE WINDOW LIFT PLATE BUT NOT THE REGULATOR. THERE IS A NEED FOR A PERMANENT FIX FOR THIS. I AM TIRED OF MY REGULAR TRIPS TO THE DEALER TO GET THIS FIXED. CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET THIS FIXED. *TR

2007 JEEP LIBERTY WINDOW REGULATOR I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THEM AT LEAST 6 TIMES AND THE LAST TIME I HAD THE PROBLEM THE WINDOW FELL IN TO THE DOOR AND ALMOST KNOCKING MY CHILD IN THE FACE WITH BROKEN GLASS I HAVE HEARD MORE THAN JUST MINE DOING THIS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS NOT SAFE WHEN YOU HAVE CHILDREN OR MY SELF BECAUSE IT DID THIS WHILE I WAS DRIVING I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE IT SO MANY TIMES THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THIS ANYMORE AND I CAN NOT TRADE IN BECAUSE I CANT AFFORD A NEW HIGHER CAR PAYMENT B/C THE VALUE OF THE CARS HAS DROPPED BECAUSE OF THE WINDOW REGULATOR. *KB

THIS COST ME OVER $1,000.00. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
WHILE WE WERE ON VACATION, WE WERE RIDING AROUND IN OUR CAR WITH THE WINDOWS PARTIALLY DOWN. WHILE WE WERE RIDING, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW FELL COMPLETELY INTO THE DOOR PANEL. WE STOPPED & WERE ABLE TO BORROW TOOLS TO GET THE WINDOW BACK UP. WE STUFFED THE WINDOWS WITH CARDBOARD TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. WHEN WE CAME HOME, MY BOYFRIEND OPENED THE DOOR PANEL AND PLACED A BLOCK OF WOOD IN IT BECAUSE THE WINDOWS KEPT FALLING DOWN! SOME TIME LATER, THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW DID THE SAME THING! IT TOO WOULD NOT STAY UP, SO HE INSTALLED A BLOCK OF WOOD IN THAT DOOR PANEL AS WELL. WE RESEARCHED REPLACEMENT PARTS (USED) AND HAVE BEEN TOLD OVER & OVER THAT THEY SIMPLY ARE NOT AVAILABLE. WHEN WE PRICED NEW PARTS, THEY ARE OUTRAGEOUS. THE CHEAP PLASTIC PIECES THAT HOLD THE WINDOW IN PLACE & LOCKED ARE OVER $100. I FIND THAT RIDICULOUS. WE HAVE FOUND THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND JEEP STILL HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. WE SIMPLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, STEERING
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT WAS ENTERING A PARKING SPACE WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY ADVISED HIM THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAD FAILED AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED FOR THE FUEL PUMP. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY OFFERED A REIMBURSEMENT. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS AND ATTEMPTING A TURN, THE STEERING WOULD BECOME HARD TO MANEUVER. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER INSPECTED BY A DEALER AND THEY ADVISED HER THAT THE RACK AND PINION AND THE POWER STEERING PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED FOR THE PUMP ALONE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 38,000. UPDATED 06/16/11 *BF UPDATED 2/03/2012 *LN *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
EVERY TIME I FILL MY TANK THE PUMP WILL STOP AND ABOUT A HALF GALLON OF GAS COMES GUSHING OUT OF THE TANK SPILLING ON ME, THE CAR AND THE GROUND. I AM NOT TOPPING OFF. THE PUMP STOPS AND WHAT SEEMS TO BE EXTRA GAS LITERALLY EXPLODES OUT OF THE TANK.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL - LOOSE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE, ROUGH IDLE AND SLOW POWER (JERKY STARTS WHEN OCCURS DURING CASUAL DRIVING). THIS HAS OCCURRED WHILE ON THE FREEWAY AND CAUSAL DRIVING ON THE CITY STREETS. WHEN THIS OCCURS ON THE FREEWAY, RPM'S GO ABOVE 3000 WHEN ONLY GOING 60...CAR SPUTTERS AND FEELS LIKE IT COULD JUST STOP, ENGINE RUNS HIGH AND IF YOU ACCELERATE, IT IS SLOW TO CATCH AND STARTS JERKING. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES EVEN AFTER BEING SEEN BY THE DEALER 6 TIMES AND SUPPOSEDLY "FIXED". I FEAR THAT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE OF THE JERKY ACCELERATION AND SLOW RESPONSE TO ACCELERATION IT IS POSSIBLE OTHER VEHICLES COULD BE FOLLOWING TOO CLOSE AND REAR END MY VEHICLE. *TR
