FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:DELIVERY
THE REASON I'M WRITING IS BECAUSE I READ IN A JEEP LIBERTY DIESEL 2005/2006 FORUM THAT FUEL LEAKS HAVE BEEN COMMON. ON JULY 07, 07, I PARKED THE JEEP, SHUT OFF ENGINE, AND WALKED INSIDE MY HOUSE. AFTER 10 MINUTESS, I SAW SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER HOOD AND DROPS OF FLAMES COMING FROM UNDER THE JEEP. THE FIRE DEPT. WAS CALLED TO PUT OUT THE FIRE, WHICH BURNED THE ENTIRE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE.*AK

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
WHILE DOING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE I NOTICED DIESEL FUEL LEAKING OUT OF THE FUEL HEATER CONNECTOR LOCATED IN THE FUEL FILTER HOUSING. I PULLED THE CONNECTOR OFF AND FOUND IT PARTIALLY DAMAGED BY EXCESS HEAT AT THE CONNECTOR TERMINAL AND WET WITH FUEL. I LEFT THE CONNECTOR DISCONNECTED FROM THE HOUSING UNTIL I HAD THE DEALER REPLACE THE FILTER HOUSING ASSEMBLY UNDER WARRANTY. THE BURNED/DAMAGED CONNECTOR WAS NOT REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP WHEN THE HOUSING WAS REPLACED. I DON'T HAVE THE OLD HOUSING, BUT I COULD TAKE A PICTURE OF THE DAMAGED CONNECTOR/TERMINAL THAT WAS STILL ON THE VEHICLE. ALSO, I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS EXCESS AIR IN THE FILTER HOUSING BEFORE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE HOUSING. AFTER THE HOUSING WAS REPLACED THERE WAS STILL EXCESS AIR, BUT NOT NEARLY AS MUCH AS BEFORE. WHILE THE CONNECTOR WAS OFF, AND I WAS WAITING FOR THE REPLACEMENT PART THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START 2 SEPARATE TIMES BECAUSE AIR WAS ENTERING THROUGH THE CONNECTOR. I HAD TO PUMP THE PRIMER THAT WAS INSTALLED ON THE FILTER HOUSING TO GET THE VEHICLE STARTED BOTH TIMES.*AK

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON 2006 JEEP LIBERTY RENEGADE ACTIVATES FOR NO APPARENT REASON, CAUSING VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER/CHOKE OUT/STUMBLE ON ACCELERATION. PROBLEM OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY UP TO 3 OR 4 TIMES A WEEK. TENDED TO HAPPEN OFTEN WHEN GOING AROUND CORNERS IN 1ST OR 2ND GEAR, AND SOMETIMES WHEN JUST GOING STRAIGHT. SOMETIMES THE LIGHT WILL FLASH WHILE THE LOSS OF POWER OCCURED, BUT SOMETIMES NOT.. WHEN THIS OCCURRED PAVEMENT WAS DRY AND THERE WERE NO ABRUPT MANUEVERS NO REASON FOR THIS SYSTEM TO ACTIVATE. THIS WAS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. PURCHASED VEHICLE NEW FROM DEALER IN NOVEMBER '06. DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED PROBLEM IN MARCH '07 , CLAIMING THEY WERE WAITING FOR A SOFTWARE UPDATE FROM CHRYSLER. IN JUNE '07 I RETURNED TO THE DEALER AND ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM AGAIN, AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE NO TSBS, NO CODES, AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM . THEY DID NOT ACKNOWLEDGE"THE PROBLEM THIS TIME. THEY ACKNOWLEDGED IT IN WRITING ON MY SERVICE RECEIPT IN MARCH). EVEN ON THE WAY HOME FROM THE DEALER TODAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN I EXITED AN OFF RAMP FROM THE HIGHWAY. *AK
