ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, WHEELS, SERVICE BRAKES
ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE THE ABS SYSTEM ON THE JEEP TURNS ON AND MY CAR COMES TO A STOP. I AM UNABLE TO MOVE THE CAR AND I HAVE HAD IT TOWED TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP TO BE LOOKED AT. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THEIR SHOP 4 TIMES FOR SERVICE. EACH TIME I AM TOLD THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED AND EACH TIME IT OCCURS AGAIN. THIS ISSUE IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS MY CAR LITERALLY IS UNABLE TO MOVE AND COMES TO A COMPLETE HALT. IT HAS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY , AT AN INTERSECTION, AND DRIVING UP HILL. THE DEALERSHIP IS UNSYMPATHETIC AND I AM UNAWARE AS HOW TO PROCEED. THANK YOU. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
ALL LIGHTS (INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR) GO OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THEY COME BACK ON, BUT IT'S PRETTY SCARY WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING AT NIGHT IN TRAFFIC AT 65 MPH. THE ISSUE IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT - ISN'T TEMPERATURE RELATED (HAPPENS IN WINTER AND SUMMER), CAN HAPPEN SOON AFTER STARTING VEHICLE OR AFTER 60 MINUTES OF DRIVING, IS NOT RELATED TO ROUGH ROAD SURFACE OR CROSSING A RAILROAD CROSSING. HAS BEEN TO JEEP DEALER TWICE - BOTH TIMES DEALER STATED THEY COULDN'T REPEAT THE ISSUE AND SENT THE CAR BACK WITHOUT FIXING IT. IF YOU GOOGLE - 2002 JEEP LIBERTY HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS THIS ISSUE COMES UP FREQUENTLY. YOU'D BE AMAZED. THIS VEHICLE IS DRIVEN DAILY BY MY DAUGHTER. IT HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY KIND OF AN ACCIDENT. ORIGINALLY, I JUST WANTED IT FIXED - IT SCARES MY DAUGHTER TO DRIVE IT. NOW IT'S SCARING ME. SHOULD THIS VEHICLE BE RECALLED? IT'S BEEN RECALLED FOR A REAR TRAILER HITCH AND HAS NEVER HAD A TRAILER HITCH. NOW, I WANT THE CAR MADE SAFE. CHECK THE WEBSITE, CONTACT JEEP - THIS IS A MORE COMMON PROBLEM THAN YOU MIGHT THINK. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EVERY SINGLE TIME WE FILL UP THE CAR (NO TOPPING OFF), THE GAS SHOOTS OUT OF THE TANK BACK AT US. WE BOUGHT THIS USED CAR FOR HOPING IT WOULD BE RELIABLE, BUT THIS IS A RECURRING DANGEROUS PROBLEM. WE LOWER THE FLOW OF FUEL FROM THE PUMP, BUT IT STILL HAPPENS. VERY DANGEROUS! WE HAVE HEAD THAT THE PLASTIC O RING SWELLS WITH GASOLINE THAT CONTAINS ETHANOL AND FAILS TO CUT THE BACK FLOW OFF. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS IS, ALL PUMPS IN OUR AREA CONTAIN AT LEAST 10% ETHANOL. WHAT GOOD IS A CAR IF YOU CAN'T DRIVE IT?! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IT STARTED A WITH WHEN I GOT OUT OF JEEP AND PUSH BUTTON TO LOCK THE VEHICLE IT WOULDN'T LOCK AND THE HORN WOULD NOT BEEP LIKE IT DOES WHEN IT LOCKS SO I HAD TO LOCK IT MANUALLY. WHEN I GOT OUT OF STORE AND GOT BACK INTO JEEP IT WORKED AND IT ONLY HAPPENS AFTER THE CAR HAS WARMED UP IS WHAT IT SEEMS LIKE, THEN I WAS PULLING INTO A TURNING LANE AND SLOWING DOWN AND HEARD A HORN BEEP LOUD JUST TO REALIZE THAT IT WAS MY JEEP THAT BEEPED AND I NEVER PRESSED THE HORN AT ALL. THEN TODAY I GET INTO CAR AND SIT IN SEAT AND USE THE POWER SEAT BUTTON TO ADJUST THE DRIVER SEAT AND DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH THE STEERING WHEEL AND DIDN'T PUT THE KEY IN IGNITION EITHER AND MY FLASHERS STARTED FLASHING BUT, THEN CUT RIGHT OFF. WHEN I GOT WHERE I WAS GOING AND PARKED MY JEEP IT HAPPENED AGAIN THE FLASHERS STARTED TO FLASH AND THEN STOPPED. WHEN I WALKED UP TO THE JEEP WITHOUT PRESSING ANY BUTTONS MY CAR UNLOCKED ON ITS OWN AND THE LIGHTS CAME ON. SOMETIMES MY RADIO TAKES ABOUT 10 SECONDS OR SO BEFORE IT STARTS TO WORK. WINDSHIELD WIPER DOESN'T WANT TO BLOW OUT ANY FLUID SAYS IT NEEDS A MOTOR. HAVE A SLIDER ROOF AND NOTICED THAT IT HAS LEAKED PREVIOUSLY CAUSE I CAN SEE RAIN MARKS AROUND THE EDGES OF THE SLIDER AND WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD I CAN HEAR WIND FROM COMING THE ROOF SO ITS NOT SEALING LIKE IT SHOULD. I CAN HAVE THE HEAT ON BUT, LATER IN THE DAY WHEN IT GETS HOT I WILL TURN ON THE AC AND THE AC DOESN'T WANT TO BLOW OUT COLD AIR AND I FIDDLE WITH THE SWITCHES FOR A BIT, I CAN FINALLY GET IT TO COME ON. I JUST BOUGHT IT LAST JANUARY SO I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD IT A YEAR YET AND ALWAYS TAKE IT IN FOR SERVICING PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE SEEN RECALLS FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME JEEP BUT, YOUR SITE TELLS ME NO OPEN RECALLS SO HOW DO I KNOW IF MINE HAS BEEN REPAIRED? *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
AS I WAS LEAVING WORK, I STARTED UP MY JEEP AND THE FLASHERS STARTED FLASHING BY THEMSELVES. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES OF TURNING THE JEEP ON AND OFF, TURNING THE HAZARD SWITCH ON AND OFF, IT FINALLY STOPPED. A FEW WEEKS LATER, FOR THE 5TH TIME, MY JEEP REFUSED TO START AFTER A STOP AT THE LOCAL PHARMACY. THE HORN HAS NOT WORKED FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW, AND RIGHT BEFORE IT DIED, IT WOULD HONK RANDOMLY WHETHER THE JEEP WAS PARKED, KEY IN THE IGNITION OR NOT. IT HAS ALSO STALLED A FEW TIMES ON THE FREEWAY. DEALER HAS RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT OF THE TIPM AND SAYS THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE
THE SWING GATE FAILS TO OPEN, THE WINDOW WILL POP UP BUT THE GATE WILL NOT RELEASE AT ALL. THE SWING GATE ONLY ALLOWS FOR A KEYLESS ENTRY. WOULD THIS FALL UNDER RECALL NO.D09? I HAVE READ THAT MANY OTHER JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS ONLINE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE, WHEN I TRIED TO RESEARCHING FOR A FIX. PERIODICALLY PRIOR TO THIS GATE WOULD POP UP ON DASH DISPLAY.THERE IS CONCERN THAT MOTOR CONTROLLING THIS MAY MALFUNCTION AND COME OPEN ON IT'S OWN. *TR
