STRUCTURE:BODY, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WE RECEIVED THE NOTICE ABOUT THE GAS/FUEL TANK POTENTIAL TO CATCH FIRE, WE TOOK OUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER EXPLAINED THAT WE HAVE TOO MUCH CORROSION ON OUR VEHICLE TO BE REPAIRED. THE COST TO REPAIR EXCEEDS THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE, CURRENTLY WE ARE STILL DRIVING WITH A VEHICLE THAT MAY CATCH FIRE. WE CONTACTED CHRYSLER AS WE STILL ARE PAYING OFF THE VEHICLE, WE WHERE GIVEN THE RUN AROUND UNTIL FINALLY ONE ASSOCIATE TOLD US SIMPLY, THEY WILL NOT HELP YOU. PRIOR TO THIS RECALL NOTICE WE HAVE CONSTANTLY HAD ISSUES WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS AND THE GAS WOULD LEAK OUT IN LARGE QUANTITIES INSTEAD OF SHUTTING OFF. WE REPLACED THE OIL PAN RECENTLY AFTER IT RUSTED OUT, WE ARE ABOUT TO REPLACE TO TRANSMISSION FLUID PAN AS THAT IS ABOUT TO RUST OUT, THE TRANSMISSION LINES ARE ALSO RUSTING AND CORRODED. OUR JEEP MAY BE AN 05 BUT IT LOOKS AS IF ITS BRAND NEW ROLLING OFF THE LINE, WE TAKE CARE OF OUR VEHICLE. WE ARE INFORMED CONSUMERS AND KNOW THERE IS A RECALL FOR CHRYSLER FAILING TO FIX THE FUEL TANK EXPLOSION ISSUES, WHEN WE LOOKED UP THE VIN FOR OUR VEHICLE IT WAS NOT SHOWING THAT IT IS ONE OF THE ONE'S BEING RECALLED. OUR VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND WE SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. WE WANT TO KNOW IF OUR VEHICLE WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. WE STILL HAVE ALL THE PAPERWORK FROM VISITING THE DEALER. WHEN WE TOOK THE VEHICLE UP FOR THE RECALL, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US THAT JEEP HAS ISSUES WITH RUST TO BEGIN WITH AND THAT IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT HAS YET TO BE CORRECTED.

MY HEAT SHIELD CAME LOOSE AND DETACHED AT 110000 MILES WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS OBVIOUSLY RESTING ON MOVING PARTS UNDER MY VEHICLE. IT MADE A KLATTERING RATTLE AS THE VEHICLE SLOWED TO A STOP WHERE I COULD CHECK OUT THE PROBLEM. THE HEAT SHIELD READILY CAME OUT WHEN THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE WAS REMOVED TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO THE PART ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVIN ON SMOOTH OPEN HIGHWAY . THE CHILD IN THE BACK SEAT REQUESTED THE BACK WINDOW BE ROLLED UP . THIS DRIVER PROCEEDED TO DEPRESS BUTTON THAT CONTROLS THE OPERATION OF THE WINDOW IN THE BACK SEAT UP OR DOWN AND WHEN DOING SO THE WINDOW DID NOT CLOSE ALL THE WAY SHUT. THIS DRIVER STOPPED TO GET GAS AND TRIED THE SWITCH ONCE AGAIN . THE WINDOW WOULD STILL NOT CLOSE ALL THE WAY . WHEN WINDOW WAS TOUCHED AT THE TOP , IT FELT LOOSE AND EASILY SLID DOWN INTO THE DOOR AND NO LONGER WORKED TO CLOSE AT ALL. DIAGNOSIS WAS MADE AT A PROFESSIONAL DEALER QUOTING $300 CLAIMING THAT THE REGULATORY SWITCH WAS BROKEN .UPON CALLING CHRYSLER WITH COMPLAINT , MY RESPONSE WAS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS AT MY EXPENSE BECAUSE A- THE VEHICLE IS OLDER AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS PROBLEM . I STRONGLY DISAGREE THAT THE AGE AND NUMBER OF OWNERS OF A VEHICLE WARRANTS DENIAL OF RECALL AND REPLACE OR THE REGULATORY SWITCH .THIS IS A CONTINUAL PROBLEM AND HUNDREDS OF OTHER PERSONS HAVE COMPLAINED THE SAME PROBLEM. CHRYSLER USED CHEAP PARTS MEANT TO BREAK WITH NO REGARD FOR ITS CUSTOMERS WHATSOEVER. IN MY CASE CHILDREN WERE IN THE VEHICLE BACK SEAT AND THIS PROBLEM DOES IMPOSE A SAFETY RISK TO CHILDREN AS WELL AS FINANCIAL BURDEN ON THE CUSTOMER. CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY HAVE REMADE REGULATORY SWITCH AND MOTOR BETTER BUILT ONY WANT CUSTOMERS TO BUY IT . REGULATORY SWITCH SHOULD BE RECALLED AND RE INSTALLED JUST LIKE THE HITCH WAS , TS IS NO DIFFERENT A CHILD IS PUT AT RISK !

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
2010 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED 4X4 BEGAN TO INTERMITTENTLY START AND NOT HAVE HEADLIGHTS, SOMETIMES THE LIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON AT ALL, OTHER TIMES ONLY THE PARKING LIGHTS WOULD WORK, AND OTHER TIMES ONLY THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD WORK. IT WAS TAKEN TO BOTH A JEEP DEALER AS WELL AS A LOCAL GARAGE AND NO ONE COULD FIND AN ISSUE. THEY TRIED REPLACING THE SWITCH BUT THIS DID NOT HELP EITHER. EVENTUALLY, THE ISSUE GOT WORSE AND THE LIGHTS HAVE NOW SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT ON HIGHWAYS, LOCAL ROADS, ECT. AND HAS BECOME UNSAFE TO DRIVE. JEEP STILL CLAIMS TO NEVER HAVE SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS HOWEVER MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS EXISTS ONLINE FOR SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, A LOCAL GARAGE TOLD ME ABOUT THE TIPM ISSUES AND EVEN UPON SUGGESTING THE REPLACEMENT OF THIS PART, JEEP INSISTED THIS COULDN'T BE THE ISSUE. NOW THE LIGHTS ARE REALLY ACTING UP, SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING, FLASHING FREQUENTLY, ONLY PARKING LIGHTS WORK SOMETIMES, SOMETIMES ONLY ONE LIGHT WORKS, AND OTHER ISSUES ARE BEGINNING (STARTING RANDOMLY, HORN / ALARM RANDOMLY GOING OFF,ECT) JEEP STILL REFUSING THAT THIS IS THE ISSUE AND WANTS TO REPLACE / REPAIR OTHER THINGS FIRST. CURRENTLY LOOKING INTO REPLACEMENT TIPM PERSONALLY, AS AT THIS POINT, THE JEEP LIBERTY IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT.
