FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS AND TANK IS FUEL THE NOZZLE STOPS AND THEN GAS BUBBLES OUT THE FUEL TANK AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I EVEN TRY GOING SLOW BUT AS SOON AND IT GETS FULL SOME FUEL COMES OUT. I TOOK THIS TO DON MILLER DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM SERVICE CENTER IN MADISON, WI AND THEY INFORMED THAT THE ROLLOVER VALVE IS NOT WORKING AND I WOULD NEED THE WHOLE FUEL TANK REPLACED. I KNOW FROM RESEARCH ONLINE THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE FACT THAT IN THE CHANCE OF A ROLLOVER THIS KEEPS FUELS FROM SPILLING OUT OF THE GAS TANK THAT MAY CAUSE A FIRE. I HAVE ALSO SEEN OTHER RECALLS FOR OTHER CHRYSLER MAKES AND MODELS INCLUDING OTHER JEEP MODELS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE AND WONDER IF THE JEEP LIBERTY'S SHOULD BE INCLUDED AS WELL. THANK YOU *TR

STRUCTURE
AS WE WERE DRIVING OUR CAR ON THE INTERSTATE, WE NOTICED THAT THE CLOSED SLIDING ROOF WAS BUCKLING ON BOTH THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE (RIGHT ABOVE THE HEADRESTS) AND WE COULD HEAR THIS WHISTLING SOUND AND FEEL AIR COMING FROM THE RAISED JUNCTION. WE SUBSEQUENTLY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH WE HAD PURCHASED THE NEW VEHICLE, BRUNSWICK AUTO, AND INQUIRED ABOUT ANY RECALLS ON THE SLIDING ROOF. WE WERE TOLD THAT THERE HAD BEEN NO RECALLS. WE LATER HAD THE ROOF EXAMINED AND WAS TOLD THAT NO PROBLEMS WERE FOUND. WE CONTINUED TO NOTICE THE SAME ISSUES. IN DECEMBER 2012, PRIOR TO OUR ORIGINAL WARRANTY EXPIRING (WE DID PURCHASE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AT THE TIME OF VEHICLE PURCHASE), WE TOOK THE CAR TO ADVENTURE JEEP OF WILLOUGHBY, OH TO HAVE THE ROOF RE-EXAMINED. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE SLIDING ROOF WAS MISALIGNED AND THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN CORRECTED. UPON DRIVING HOME, WE NOTICED THE PROBLEM HAD NOT BEEN CORRECTED AND REMAINED THE SAME. WE HAVE TEN MONTH OLD TWINS AND ARE TRAVELING FREQUENTLY TO VISIT FAMILY. WE ARE CONCERNED NOW THAT THE SLIDING ROOF MAY FLY OFF COMPLETELY WHEN WE ARE ON THE INTERSTATE. WE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE LOOKED AT TWICE BY "PROFESSIONALS". ANY ASSISTANCE AND ADVOCACY IS APPRECIATED. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN FILLING GAS TANK FUEL SPITS BACK OUT OF TANK ALL OVER BODY AND ME IF NOT STANDING AWAY FROM NOZZLE. THIS JUST STARTED HAPPENING JUST AS JEEP WARRANTY RAN OUT. DEALER WILL NOT FIX PROBLEM UNLESS I SPEND $700 FOR NEW TANK. I FEEL THIS A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT JEEP SHOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM AT NO CHARGE. I UNDERSTAND THERE ARE SAFETY BULLETINS OUT ON THIS PROBLEM ON SEVERAL MODELS OF JEEPS. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THIS IS THE SECOND COMPLAINT ON THIS VEHICLE FOR THE SAME ISSUE, IT HAS BECOME MORE OF A PROBLEM. I HAVE TO FILL THE GAS TANK EXTREMELY SLOWLY OR THE PUMP WILL SHUT OFF SOME TIMES GAS COME OUT. I CAN NOT FILL THE TANK UP COMPLETELY OR QUITE A LOT OF GAS WILL GUSH OUT ON THE GROUND OR ON ME IF I AM STANDING IN FRONT OF THE FILL PIPE. I NOTICE THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH MY WRANGLER SAME YEAR AS MY LIBERTY AND THE WRANGLER WAS RECALLED. I DO NOT UNDER STAND WHY THE LIBERTY WOULD NOT BE RECALLED. THIS COULD BECOME A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I CHECKED TO SEE IF IT WAS EVEN BEING INVESTIGATED AND IT IS NOT! WHY? *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
JEEP LIBERTY SPURTS FUEL WHEN FILLING UP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. AUTO SHUTOFF ON FUEL PUMP/NOZZLE SHUTS OFF THEN A LARGE QUANTITY OF FUEL SPURTS OUT OF TANK ALL OVER SIDE OF CAR AND GROUND. THIS IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL AND HUMAN SAFETY HAZARD. NOW WHEN FILLING UP, I STEP AWAY FROM THE CAR AND LET THE SPURTING FINISH. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP. ALSO HAPPENS WHEN I DON'T SET PUMP/NOZZLE TO AUTO SHUT OFF, BUT WHEN I DO THAT, I GET FUEL ALL OVER MY HANDS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
AFTER SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, I ATTEMPTED TO PULL OFF FROM THE STOP, THE ABS LIGHT AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE REAR BRAKES LOCKED UP. I WAS A MILE FROM HOME, I PUT THE VEHICLE IN FOUR WHEEL DRIVE IN ORDER TO GET IT TO MOVE. I DROVE ONE MILE TO MY HOME AND PARKED, I COULD SMELL THE BRAKES. I LET THE VEHICLE SIT FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR, TRIED TO DRIVE IT AND IT OPERATED AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. I DROVE THE VEHICLE AGAIN THE NEXT DAY WITH NO PROBLEMS. *TR
