WHEELS
DRIVING WITH MY WIFE ON I-95 NORTH IN CONNECTICUT EARLY SATURDAY MORNING, OUR RIGHT REAR TIRE INSTANTLY LOST AIR PRESSURE. I SAW THE LOW AIR WARNING LIGHT GO ON FIRST, THEN IMMEDIATELY FELT THE VEHICLE WOBBLE TO THE POINT WHERE I COULD BARELY CONTROL IT. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GET IT TO THE RIGHT SIDE SHOULDER WHERE I CHANGED THE TIRE. I NOTICED THAT THE ENTIRE VALVE WAS MISSING FROM THE RIM. I DID NOT NOTICE ANY NAILS OR OTHER PENETRATIONS OF THE TIRE ITSELF. HAD IT BEEN ONE OF THE FRONT TIRES, I MIGHT HAVE LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR. WHEN WE GOT TO A TIRE STORE TO HAVE THE BAD TIRE CHECKED OUT, THE MECHANIC & THE OWNER SAID WE HAD DEFECTIVE AIR PRESSURE SENSOR VALVES AND THAT WE ESSENTIALLY EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT. THE MECHANIC SHOWED US THE OTHER VALVES AND THEY WERE ALL CRACKED AS WELL. WE HAD THEM ALL REPLACED AND HAD TO BUY A NEW TIRE AS WELL. THE CRACKS IN THE SENSOR VALVES WERE OBVIOUS. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY MATTER THAT COULD CAUSE FATALITIES IF THEY HAVE NOT OCCURED ALREADY.

I STARTED MY JEEP LIBERTY AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED GOING WHEN THE SWITCH WAS IN THE OFF POSITION. I TURNED ON MY HEADLIGHTS AND THEY STOPPED. WHEN I GOT HOME I TOOK DISCONNECTED THE NEG WIRE ON THE BATTERY TO RESET THE COMPUTER IN JEEP AND I HOOKED IT BACK UP AFTER 20 MINS AND WHERE THE MILEAGE IS SHOWN IT SAID ERROR.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ESP/BAS, ABS AND SKIDDING VEHICLE ICON LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER! THE CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE WE HAD ON OUR 2007 JEEP WRANGLER, WHICH I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE NHTSA, WHICH ISSUED A RECALL ON OUR JEEP. THE CLOCK SPRING MODULE, LOCATED UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL, CONTROLS, THE ABS, ESP/BAS, CRUISE CONTROL, HORN, AND AIR BAG! THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED, LIKE MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER WAS!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHEN DRIVERS DOOR WAS OPENED, VEHICLE HORN, WIPERS BOTH FRONT AND REAR ALL BEGAN TO OPERATE AND I WAS UNABLE TO START AND MAINTAIN THE ENGINE RUNNING, IT WAS NECESSARY TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TERMINAL IN ORDER TO STOP EVERYTHING. A MONTH LATER, I WAS IN TOWN AND IT DID THE SAME THING. IN APRIL WHILE COMING TO A STOP SIGN THE VEHICLE STOPPED RUNNING AND THE HORN, WIPERS AND LIGHTS ALL BEGAN OPERATING. I WAS ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT STOPPED. THE BATTERY HAD TO BE DISCONNECTED IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE TO RUN. THE NEXT AFTERNOON, IT DID IT AGAIN HOWEVER DISCONNECTING AND RECONNECTING THE BATTERY DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I HAD TO LEAVE THE BATTERY DISCONNECTED ALL NIGHT IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO RESET.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
1ST INCIDENT OCCURRED IN MARCH 2013. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN A 25MPH ZONE. SUDDENLY, THE HORN STARTED BEEPING, WINDSHIELD WIPERS (FRONT AND REAR) WERE GOING, WASHER FLUID WAS POURING OUT, POWER DOOR LOCKS WHERE GOING ON AND OFF. HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE WITH THE FLUID SPRAYING OUT AT FULL SPEED. I TURN THE CAR OFF AND REMOVED KEY FROM THE IGNITION AND THIS CONTINUED TO GO ON FOR 5 MINUTES. BROUGHT THE CAR TO MANFREDI DEALERSHIP. THEY REPLACED THE TIPM MODULE WHICH WAS VERY COSTLY. A YEAR AND 1/2 LATER ON MAY 18, 2015, I EXPERIENCED THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THERE IS DEFINITELY A MAJOR FLAW WITH THIS PART. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN THIS OCCURS ON A HIGHWAY/TURNPIKE DOING THE SPEED LIMIT. THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY. I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY FOR YET ANOTHER TIPM. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY EXPLAINED IT'S ONLY A 1 YEAR/12 MONTHS GUARANTEE, BUT THIS PART SHOULD LAST AT LEAST 5 YEARS. REALLY???

STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS:UNDERBODY SHIELDS, SUSPENSION
AS I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT I SUDDENLY HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND NOTICED MY BACK WHEELS ACTING STRANGE. I THOUGHT IT WAS A FLAT TIRE SO I PARKED AND CHECKED MY REAR TIRES. EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE SO I GOT WHAT I HAD COME FOR THEN GOT BACK ON THE ROAD. THE NOISE AND DIFFICULTY STEERING WERE STILL THERE THOUGH SO I PULLED OVER AGAIN AND LOOKED UNDER THE REAR TIRES. THE REAR CONTROL ARM ON THE DRIVERS SIDE HAS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKEN. I COULDN'T BELIEVE A CAR WITH LESS THAN 70,000 MILES ON IT COULD HAVE A PART COMPLETELY RUST THROUGH LIKE THAT SO I CHECKED ALL THE RECALLS ON THE LIBERTY MODEL. NOT SURPRISINGLY THERE WAS A RECALL DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUST ON THE VERY PART THAT HAD COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT ON MY VEHICLE. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THIS SAFETY RECALL THOUGH BECAUSE I DON'T LIVE IN ONE OF THE STATES WHERE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. THE STATES WHERE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED GET SNOW IN THE WINTER AND SALT IS USUALLY USED TO CLEAR THE STREETS. THAT IS WHY THESE STATES WERE IN THE RECALL. I LIVE IN NEBRASKA THOUGH, A STATE THAT GETS NEARLY AS MUCH SNOW AS IOWA, MISSOURI, AND MINNESOTA (THREE STATES THAT WERE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL) AND YET IF YOU LIVE IN MY STATE YOU ARE NOT INFORMED OF THE RECALL AND YOU DO NOT GET THE PARTS REPLACED. IF I HAD NOT BEEN PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT AT THE MOMENT THE REAR CONTROL ARM HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKEN THE INCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE. I COULD HAVE BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY OR A BUSY STREET AND EASILY LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. SINCE MY STATE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL MY SAFETY (AND THE SAFETY OF OTHER DRIVERS) WAS PUT AT RISK AND I WILL NOW BE OUT $600. *TR
