ON MARCH 2015 DUE TO A RECALL M35 (ORC FILTER CIRCUIT) FOR AIRBAGS WAS INSTALLED ON MY VEHICLE. AFTER INSTALLATION MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON (MY JEEP NEVER, NEVER HAS ISSUES WITH AIRBAGS UNTIL THEY INSTALLED PART.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON 10/1/16 I WAS PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY TO PARK MY 2002 JEEP LIBERTY WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, CRASHING THROUGH MY GARAGE DOOR. WITH BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE HAND BRAKE APPLIED THE JEEP WOULD NOT STOP. IT SMASHED INTO MY WIFE'S CAR PARKED IN THE GARAGE, SLAMMING IT INTO THE GARAGE REFRIGERATOR. WITH BRAKES STILL APPLIED I ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL TO SHUT OFF ENGINE WHEN IT SLAMMED INTO REVERSE AND AT GREAT SPEED CAREENED OUT OF THE GARAGE AND DOWN THE STREET. AT NO TIME DID I FEEL I HAD CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. IT FINALLY STOPPED WHEN IT HIT SHRUBBERY AND SMALL BOULDERS. WHEN I START MY JEEP WHEN ENGINE COLD,THE RPM'S ARE HIGH AS THOUGH I PUSHED DOEN ON ACCELERATOR. ON 6-13-15 WHILE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WAITING FOR THE GREEN LIGHT (FOOT ON BRAKE)THE JEEP SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND SMASHED THE CAR IN FRONT OF US, CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE. THE INSURANCE CO HAS TOTALED MY WIFE'S CAR, WE HAVE A DAMAGED REFRIGERATOR, WE NEED A NEW GARAGE DOOR AND HAVE A JEEP LIBERTY THAT WE ARE NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE. I HAVE READ MANY, MANY IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE REGARDING 2002-2008 JEEP LIBERTY-I COULD HAVE WRITTEN THEIR STORIES-AND I HAVE LITTLE FAITH THAT I WILL EVER DRIVE MY JEEP AGAIN. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS AND INJURIES BEFORE CHRYSLER ADMITS THEY HAVE A PROBLEM? DIDN'T READ ABOUT ANY DEATHS SO I GUESS THERE'S YOUR ANSWER.

RH LOWER BALL JOINT BROKE TODAY. CAR IS IMMOBILE. THIS BALL JOINT WAS REPLACED ONE YEAR AGO, WHEN IT FIRST FAILED. THE LH ONE ALSO BROKE 6 MONTHS AGO. ALL 3 FAILURES WHERE IN PARKING LOTS. MY LIBERTY'S VIN IS NOT IN THE RECALL RANGE. JEEP REFUSES TO TALK TO ME. THEIR EXPLANATION ABOUT WATER ANT CORROSION IS NOT TECHNICALLY VALID. I AM AN AEROSPACE ENGINEER AND DEAL WITH THIS SORT OF THING ALL THE TIME. THE CAUSE IS CYCLIC LOADING OF THE TAPERED PIN, HIGH TENSION LOAD AND A STRESS RISER AT THE THREAD. REPLACING THE BALL JOINT ONLY PROVIDES MORE FAILURE OPPORTUNITIES. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE NUMBER OF DEATHS AND INJURIES THIS HAS CAUSED. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY, SERVICE BRAKES, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TWO CONCERNS - THE FIRST BEING SAFETY RELATED. THERE IS METAL GRINDING NOISE WHEN BRAKING. ALL SPEEDS - SLOW OR FAST, AND IN ALL "DRIVES", TWO WHEEL OR FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. NO MECHANICS I HAVE VISITED HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE IT. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE SPOKEN IN PERSON WITH SEVERAL AND READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THE SAME THING. SECONDLY, THREE OF MY WINDOWS HAVE NOW FAILED TO OPERATE. ALSO A WIDESPREAD JEEP LIBERTY ISSUE WITH A PIECE IN THE LIFTING MECHANISM. THE MOTORS ARE OPERATING JUST FINE, BUT THERE IS A PIECE INSIDE THE DOOR THAT BREAKS AND THE WINDOWS FAIL TO OPEN OR CLOSE THEREAFTER. SOMETIMES, A LIFTING MECHANISM SPRING-LOOKING PIECE GRINDS UPWARDS INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE WHEN THE "BROKEN" WINDOW MECHANISMS ARE ACCIDENTALLY ACTIVATED. ALSO CONCERNED THESE SPRING MECHANISMS COULD SNAP IN THE CABIN AND CAUSE EXTREME HARM.

THE HEAD RESTRAINT RECALL IN MY 2012 JEEP LIBERTY WILL NOT CORRECT THE WARNING LIGHT THAT SEEMS TO BE AN EPIDEMIC IN THIS MAKE AND MODEL. THIS ORC MODULE REPLACEMENT THAT WAS COVERED BY A RECALL IN THE 2011 MODEL IS STILL AN ISSUE IN THE 2012 BUT NOT COVERED BY RECALL. WHY DOES CHRYSLER STILL CONTINUE TO SELL VEHICLES WITH HUGE TIPM FAILURES? DISGUSTING.
