WHEELS
STEEL WHEELS ON MY JEEP LIBERTY HAVE A LIPID GROVE THAT FILLS WITH ICE,SNOW,MUD AND SAND. THIS IS ESPECIALLY BAD WITH OFF ROAD USE. THIS CAUSES THE FRONT WHEEL BALANCE TO GO OUT AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO STEER AND HANDLE VERY ERRACTICALLY. IT MAY TAKE SEVERAL TRIES WITH A POWER HOSE TO CLEAR THE WHEELS. YOU CANNOT SEE BEHIND THE SPOKES TO SEE IF ALL IS CLEAR.*JB

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
2003 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED-HUMMING/VIBRATION ON RIGHT SIDE OF VEHICLE-EXTREMELY BAD IN THE MORNING BUT CAN BE HEARD THROUGHOUT THE DAY AS THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. CHRYSLER TECH IS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT IN SOME LIBERTYS BUT DOESN'T KNOW WHY IT OCCURS OR HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE INSTEAD CHOSEN TO CALL THIS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. OWNERS OF VEHICLES WITH THIS DEFECT MAY BE AT RISK SINCE CHRYSLER HAS NO IDEA WHAT IS CAUSING THE VIBRATION/HUMMING AND NO CURRENT FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. *NLM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE, SUSPENSION
SINCE PURCHASING IN SEPT 02 HAVE HAD VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE SIX TIMES FOR NUMEROUS CONCERNS, REPEATEDLY FOR A CLUNKING/GRINDING SOUND FROM THE PSGR SD FT, A SEVERE PULLING OF THE VEHICLE TO THE RIGHT, A VIBRATION WHEN DRIVING HWY SPEEDS, AND INTERMITTENT ENGINE MISSES. DEALERSHIP TWICE REPLACED THE FRONT END STRUT MOUNTS WHICH ELIMATED THE GRIND/CLUNK, BUT CANNOT ASCERTAIN THE PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE'S INSTABILITY (PULLING) ON THE ROAD NOR WITH THE ENGINE MISFIRES. AN ADJUSTMENT (OFF SPEC) TO THE ALIGNMENT WAS PERFORMED BY DEALERSHIP WHICH IN TURN CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO PULL TO THE LEFT AND ALSO ENCOURAGED MORE STEERING VIBRATION AND WORSENED MPG - AVG 13.21 MPG WHERE INITIALLY I GOT 18 -20 MPG. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THAT B/C ROADS ARE ANGLED FOR WATER RUNOFF, THIS LIKEWISE KEEPS MY VEHICLE FROM STAYING ON THE ROAD (!?) AM CURRENTLY BEGINNING TO EXPERIENCE A CLUNKING NOISE FROM REAR PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL AREA, BUT HAVE NOT YET BROUGHT IT TO DEALER'S ATTENTION.*JB
