LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
JUNE 27TH WHILE MY WIFE AND I WERE RIDING DOWN RTE 18 SATURDAY AFTERNOON IN OUR 2002 JEEP LIBERTY THE HOOD CAME UNLATCHED FOR NO REASON. WE HAVE BEEN RIDING AROUND FOR A LONG TIME WITH NO PROBLEM. THEN OUT OF THE BLUE ALL OF A SUDDEN THIS HAPPENS. WE TOOK IT TO MEINKE TO SEE IF THEY COULD GET IT LATCHED TILL MONDAY JUNE , 29TH WHEN WE WERE SCHEDULE TO TAKE IT TOOK THE BODY SHOP FOR REPAIR. THEY DID GET IT LATCHED BUT SAID DON'T DRIVE ITGO ANYWHERE UNLESS YOU HAVE TO. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR 4 WAYS ON AND ONLY GO NO MORE THAN 35 MPH. ONE OF THE TECH'S WHO WORKS AT MEINEKE AS WELL AS THE PERSON AT THE REPAIR SHOP SAID BOTH THE SECURITY LATCH, AND THE MAIN LATCH SHOULD NOT HAVE GIVEN WAY AS WELL AS THE REP FROM GEICO SAYING THE SAME THING, ALSO THE MECHANIC WORKING ON THE JEEP SAYS THE SAME THE SAME THING BOTH THE SECURITY LATCH AND THE MAIN LATCH SHOULD HAVE HELD. I HAVE THREE PEOPLE SAYING THE SAME THING, I HOPE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE. I SPOKE TO DAIMLER CHRYSLER JEEP EXPLAINING TO THEM THE SITUATION AND I WASN'T HAPPY EXPLAINING I HAVE TO PUT OUT $500.00 OF MY POCKET BECAUSE OF THIS ACCIDENT, WHICH WE FEEL WAS NOT AN ACCIDENT. WE FEEL IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND WE SHOULD BE REIMBURSED BY DAIMLER CHRYSLER FOR THE DEDUCTIBLE WE PAID HAD TO POUR OUT OF OUR POCKET. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE JEEP AND IT DOES NOT MATTER IF OUR WARRANTY EXPIRED IN DECEMBER 2008. IT SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED UNDER WARRANTY OR NOT UNDER WARRANTY. BEING A SAFETY ISSUE ALL 2002 MODELS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED SO THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE AS WELL AS REIMBURSING US FOR THE MONEY WE HAD TO PAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM OURSELVES. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. CHECKED OIL WAS FULL. WE LIVE ABOUT 5 MILES AWAY SO GOT OFF INTERSTATE HEARD A FAINT NOISE UNDER THE HOOD WE PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND TURNED KEY OFF AND COASTED INTO A PARKING LOT. CHECKED OIL AND BELTS EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. TURNED THE KEY AND NOTHING HAPPENED. NO WARNINGS WHAT SO EVER. THE OIL PUMP WENT BAD AN SEIZED THE ENGINE. THIS IS MY TRANSPORTATION NOW I HAVE NOTHING TO DRIVE UNTIL I CAN AFFORD $7,000 PLUS FOR A NEW ENGINE. THIS WAS OUT OF WARRANTY BY LESS THEN 90 DAYS. HAVE ALMOST 90,000 MILES ON IT. I LOVE MY LIBERTY BUT WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP AGAIN. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN MAINTAINED AND WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE GOES OUT. *TR

SUSPENSION:FRONT, SUSPENSION
I HAD JUST BACKED OUT OF A PARKING SPACE IN A BUSY PARKING LOT, DROVE FORWARD ABOUT 20 FEET GOING NO MORE THAN 7-10 MPH, THEN MADE A LEFT - STILL WITHIN THE PARKING LOT. WHEN TURNING, I HEARD A GRINDING NOISE, THEN SUDDENLY, THE FRONT END OF MY 2002 JEEP LIBERTY RENEGADE COLLAPSED ONTO THE FRONT TIRE OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THE UPPER BALL JOINT OF THE VEHICLE HAD COMPLETELY SEPARATED, KNOCKING THE WHEEL OFF IN THE PROCESS. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED IN THE LATE AFTERNOON ON A SUNDAY (WHEN MECHANICS ARE NOT OPEN). AAA TOWED THE JEEP TO A LOCAL GARAGE NEARBY; HOWEVER, ON MONDAY MORNING, I CALLED CHRYSLER TO FILE A COMPLAINT ABOUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED. MY CALL WAS PICKED UP BY AN OVERSEAS CUSTOMER SERVICE REP. HE TOLD ME THAT IF I COULD HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO A CHRYSLER DEALER, THEY WOULD SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO ABOUT COVERING THE REPAIR, BUT TO CALL BACK AFTER THEY'D SPOKEN WITH THE DEALER. LATER THAT AFTERNOON, I CALLED BACK. LONG STORY SHORT, MY CALL WAS ESCALATED TO A GUY IN DETROIT, WHO AT FIRST SAID THAT THE CALL CENTER REP HAD NO BUSINESS SUGGESTING THAT MY REPAIR WOULD BE COVERED. WHEN I TOLD HIM I HAVE PHOTOS OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CAR, HE AUTHORIZED THE REPAIR. THE DEALER HAD TO REPLACE THE UPPER CONTROL ARM AND BALL JOINT, AND THE BRAKE LINE WHICH WAS SEVERED WHEN THE FRONT END COLLAPSED! I ASKED THE DEALER FOR THE DEFECTIVE PARTS. HE SAID CHRYSLER WOULD WANT THEM BECAUSE THEY WERE COVERING IT "UNDER WARRANTY." THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT AND SAFETY ISSUE - ONE OF MANY IN THE 2002 JEEP LIBERTY. I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I HAD PULLED OUT ONTO THE BUSY HIGHWAY! WHILE I WAS HAPPY THAT CHRYSLER COVERED THIS COST, THE CAR NEEDED FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS WHEN IT WAS RETURNED TO ME AS THE SUSPENSION FELT LOOSE AND THE VEHICLE WAS PULLING TO THE LEFT AND SHAKING. THE DEALER SAID THESE WERE ALL UNRELATED (?!), AND CHARGED ME FOR THOSE REPAIRS. *TR

STEERING
AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY SUBDIVISION I HEARD A LOUD "METAL ON METAL" GRINDING NOISE AND HAD A VERY DIFFICULT TIME STEERING MY 2002 JEEP LIBERTY. I CALLED AAA WHO SENT A TOW TRUCK DRIVER AND HAD MY CAR HAULED TO THE DEALER (CARDINAL DODGE IN LOUISVILLE, KY). THE UPPER BALL JOINT ON THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT BROKE. THIS CAR HAS ALREADY BEEN RECALLED TWICE BEFORE AND HAS BEEN TAKEN IN TO BE REPAIRED AS REQUIRED BY THE RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. THANKFULLY I HADN'T MADE IT TO THE EXPRESSWAY YET. I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT I DID NOT HAVE THIS HAPPEN TO ME AS I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH. I HAVE TWO YOUNG CHILDREN AND WE ALL COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED AS THEY ARE NORMALLY IN THE CAR WITH ME EVERY DAY AND IT JUST SO HAPPENED THAT THEY WERE NOT IN THE CAR YESTERDAY. IT HAPPENED RIGHT AFTER I ACCELERATED AFTER I HAD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND APPARENTLY THE POOR QUALITY OF THE CHRYSLER PARTS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED YET AGAIN. WE HAVE NOT BEEN HAPPY WITH THE CAR OR THE SERVICE ON THE CAR. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AS I DO NOT FEEL THE COST OF THE REPAIR OF THIS SUBSTANDARD VEHICLE SHOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND WHAT THEY MAKE. *TR

AIR BAGS
I WAS TRAVELING OFF NAVAL BAE KITSAP ON MY WAY HOME WHEN I REACHED A GREEN LIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION A GENTLEMAN WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN, HE HAD A YIELD SIGN BUT NO TURN SIGNAL, I WAS TRAVELING 40 MILES AN HOUR WHEN I IMPACTED HIS PASSENGER DOOR. HIS AIR BAG DEPLOYED, MINE DID NOT. I WAS DRIVING A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY. THE NEXT DAY I WAS READING ON A WEBSITE SAYING CHRYSLER WAS SUPPOSE TO IMPLEMENT A RECALL ON SEVERAL 2002 JEEP LIBERTY'S DUE TO WIRING ISSUES. I NEVER SAW A RECALL. I HAD SEVERAL BRUISES AND BUMPS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY, VISIBILITY:REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WITHOUT WARNING THE BODY CONTROL MODULE SHORTS OUT DRAINING THE BATTERY AND DAMAGING THE MULTI-CONTROL SWITCH ON THE STEERING COLUMN. CAUSING THE HEADLIGHTS, INTERIORLIGHTS, RUNNING LIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, FACTORY ELECTRIC DOOR LOCKS, AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS TO FAIL. THIS CAN CAUSE A FIRE RESULTING IN A TOTAL VEHICLE LOSS OR LOSS OF LIGHTING AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING CAUSING THE DRIVER TO LOOSE SIGHT OF THE ROAD. IN RAIN CONDITIONS LOSS OF WIPERS DURING DRIVING WOULD CAUSE LOSS OF VISIBILITY CREATING A DANGEROUS DRIVER ON THE ROAD. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I BOUGHT A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED EDITION JAN. 2008. AFTER ABOUT 7 MONTHS IT STARTED STALLING EVERYTIME I HIT THE BREAKS, OR TURNED A CORNER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE SPEEDOMETER QUIT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO FOUR MECHANICS AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. THEY HOOKED IT UP TO A COMPUTER AND SAID IT DOESN'T READ ANYTHING IS WRONG. I HAVE NEARLY BEEN REAR ENDED SEVERAL TIMES TURNING DUE TO IT STALLING. SOME DAYS IT WILL BE FINE AND THEN THE NEXT IT WILL STALL EVERYTIME I STOP OR TURN. IT SEEMS TO STALL MORE WHEN I AM TURNING. I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO TAKE IT TO GET FIXED SINCE NO ONE CAN DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT OR HAVE MY KIDS IN IT. I HAVE NOTICED ON WEBSITES THAT JEEP HAVE BEEN HAVING MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THIS ISSUE. I JUST WANT IT REPAIRED AND THERE SEEM TO BE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE ALTHOUGH JEEP IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED BEFORE THIS PROBLEM IS FIXED. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW THE PROBLEM AND HOW TO GET IT FIXED!! *TR

SUSPENSION:FRONT
FAILURE OF UPPER BALL JOINT LET SIDE ON 2-27-09, TWO DAYS AFTER THE LOWER BALL JOINT ON SAME SIDE WAS REPLACED AS PER RECALL. THE REPLACEMENT OF THE LOWER BALL JOINT WAS THE FOURTH SUCH REPLACEMENT. I INITIATED THE REPAIR TWO DAYS EARLIER AFTER THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO MAKE A GRINDING NOISE. THE LOWER BALL JOINT FAILED A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING IN REVERSE AT LOW SPEED WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE. THE FAILURE OF THE UPPER BALL JOINT HAPPENED ABOUT FIVE MINUTES AFTER TRAVELING AT 70 MPH DOWN AN INTERSTATE. AFTER EXITING THE FREEWAY, I PULLED THE JEEP INTO A PARKING LOT OF A CONVENIENCE TO CHECK DIRECTIONS AND THEN PULLED OUT AT LOW SPEED - LESS THAN 10 MPH. IT FAILED. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON DEC 8, 2008 I PICKED UP MY JEEP LIBERTY FROM MY MECHANIC, HE HAD REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION OIL PAN THAT RUSTED OUT AND DRAINED ALL THE TRANSMISSION OIL OUT. ON JANUARY 6, 2009 ON MY WAY TO WORK EARLY IN THE MORNING THE TRANSMISSION BLEW OUT TOTALLY, I WAS ABLE TO GET BACK HOME AND ONCE AGAIN THE MECHANIC HAS THE LIBERTY REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. I FEEL THE TRANSMISSION OIL PAN RUSTING OUT AND LEAKING CAUSED THE TRANSMISSION BLOWOUT A MONTH LATER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID COME ON IN DECEMBER AND I HAD AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE ENGINE LOOKED AT WHEN THE WHOLE PAN BLEW OUT. THE TRANSMISSION TOTALLY DROPPING IN JANUARY COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT IF I WERE DRIVING LATER, AND I FEEL THIS COULD CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS ON THE ROADWAYS ACROSS THE NATION. I HAVE COMPLAINED VIA THE WEBPAGE AT JEEP TO NO AVAIL, THIS SHOULD BE AT LEAST A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES. *TR
