FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GAS, THE PUMP'S HANDLE WILL SUDDENLY AND FORCIBLY STOP (AS THOUGH THE TANK WERE FULL) AND GASOLINE WILL SPIT OUT OF THE FUEL OPENING, DESPITE THE FACT IT IS GALLONS AWAY FROM BEING FILLED TO FULL CAPACITY. THIS HAPPENS WITH EVERY DIFFERENT GAS STATION'S PUMP HANDLES, SO TO BE CLEAR, IT IS NOT AN ISSUE WITH THE PUMP OR HANDLE, OR THE INDIVIDUAL'S ABILITY TO PUMP GAS CORRECTLY; IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THE GAS LINE OF THIS VEHICLE AND THE INDICATOR OR REGULATOR OR WHATEVER PART IS DEFECTIVE. THIS IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WE HAD WITH OUR 2008 WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED, FOR WHICH A RECALL WAS ISSUED IN 2013 FOR A DEFECTIVE GAS LINE COLLAR. ONCE THE RECALL WAS REMEDIATED THE PROBLEM STOPPED. SO I CALLED JEEP TODAY TO DISCUSS WHY A RECALL HAD NOT BEEN ISSUED FOR OUR LIBERTY SINCE IT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. THE ANSWER I RECEIVED LED ME TO BELIEVE THAT NOT ENOUGH COMPLAINTS HAD BEEN RECEIVED BY YOUR OFFICE; SO I AM FILING A COMPLAINT WITH YOU TODAY SO THAT YOU CAN INVESTIGATE THE NEED FOR A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE ON THE JEEP LIBERTY MODEL. MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW OWNS THIS VEHICLE AND ALLOWS ME TO DRIVE IT, SO I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT TO BRING THIS ISSUE TO YOUR ATTENTION ON HER BEHALF, AND WHOSE INFORMATION APPEARS IN SECTION 3, BELOW. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS SERIOUS ISSUE. *TR

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND A TRUCK IN FRONT OF HER STOPPED QUICKLY CAUSING MY DAUGHTER TO SLAM ON BRAKES TO AVOID A COLLISION BUT ENDED UP REAR ENDING THE TRUCK. HER AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND HER JEEP HAD TO BE TOWED FROM THE SITE. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SINCE 4/28/14 AND WAS REPAIRED EXCEPT FOR THE CLOCK SPRING WHICH IS NECESSARY FOR THE NEW AIRBAG. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS PART IS NO LONGER PRODUCED OR MANUFACTURED BY ANY VENDOR IN THE COUNTRY. THEREFORE, OUR JEEP CANNOT BE RELEASED TO US WHICH HAS CAUSED A HARDSHIP ON OUR FAMILY AS WELL AS A HARDSHIP FOR THE SHOP MANAGER AS HE CANNOT BE PAID UNTIL THE CAR IS RELEASED. BECAUSE OF THIS I BELIEVE THAT ANYONE DRIVING A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY IN THE COUNTRY IS POSSIBLY AT RISK DUE TO THIS DEVICE NOT BEING READILY AVAILABLE IN THE PROPER SUPPLY CHANNELS. *TR

THE NHTSA SAFETY RECALL OF MY JEEP LIBERTY TO REPAIR A DEADLY DEFECT WITH THE PLACEMENT OF THE FUEL TANK HAS NOT YET BEEN REPAIRED BY CHRYSLER. THEY INFORMED ME OF THE RECALL IN DECEMBER, 2013, BUT THE DEALER (JIM RIEHL'S FRIENDLY CHRYSLER JEEP IN WARREN, MI) TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART YET. WHEN I CALLED THAT SAME ESTABLISHMENT ON MARCH 3, 2014 TO SCHEDULE THE IMPORTANT SAFETY REPAIR, I WAS GIVEN THE SAME RESPONSE - THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART IN STOCK YET. TODAY I JUST RECEIVED A MAILING FROM JIM RIEHL'S FRIENDLY JEEP IN WARREN MI WHICH STATES:"RECALL NOTICE. AS OF DECEMBER 12, 2013, THIS VEHICLE HAS THE FOLLOWING INCOMPLETE RECALLS/CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTICES: N46 (N46 / NHTSA 13V-252) PLEASE CONTACT US TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. RECALL/CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTICE REPAIRS WILL BE PERFORMED FREE." WHEN I CALLED RUSS IN SERVICE AT THAT SAME FRIENDLY JEEP TODAY, MAY 28, 2014 - - PART NOT YET IN STOCK. THE STATEMENT ABOUT THE RECALL REPAIR IS FRAUDULENT - THE MAILING CONTAINED TWO COUPONS FOR VEHICLE MAINTENANCE. WHEN WILL YOU STOP THIS FARCE AND FORCE CHRYSLER TO STOP ENDANGERING THEIR CUSTOMERS AND REPAIR THEIR DEADLY DEFECT? *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
CAR STARTS ACCEPTING GAS THEN YOU CAN HEAR IT GURGLE BACK UP WHILE IT SHUTS OFF THE PUMP. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW FAR IN OR OUT THE HOSE NOZZLE IS EITHER. IT IS TAKING FOREVER TO GET GAS INTO MY CAR MOST OF IT ENDS UP SPILLING OUT OVER THE TOP OF THE GAS DOOR. THIS IS UTTERLY RIDICULOUS AND FROM THE WEB I SEE I AM NOT THE FIRST PERSON DEALING WITH THIS ISSUES AND OF COURSE PAYING FOR THIS PROBLEM OUT OF MY OWN POCKET. *TR

POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION
KEY WILL NOT RELEASE FROM IGNITION ON STEERING COLUMN DUE TO RESTRICTED (DEGRADED RANGE OF MOTION FROM A SUBASSEMBLY WITH WEAKENED SPRING) MOVEMENT OF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK CABLE. VEHICLE CAN NOT BE PUT IN PARK (SHIFTER FREELY MOVES THROUGH P R N D 3 2) AND KEY WILL NOT MAKE THE LAST LITTLE TURN BEFORE RELEASE. SEEMS TO BE AN EXTREMELY COMMON OCCURRENCE AMONG OWNERS, BASED ON CURSORY ONLINE RESEARCH. REQUIRES REPLACEMENT OF ENTIRE CENTER CONSOLE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY WITH AN "UPGRADED/IMPROVED" MOPAR PART TO FIX THE KNOWN HIGH FAILURE SUBASSEMBLY (BUT NOT AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE SEPARATELY). INABILITY TO PLACE VEHICLE SECURELY IN PARK WOULD SEEM TO BE BIGGEST SAFETY ISSUE, NOT TO MENTION VEHICLE SECURITY COMPROMISED WITH KEY PERPETUALLY IN IGNITION. *JS ..UPDATED 02-10-15 *BF UPDATED 8/28/2017*CN

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I RECEIVED A RECALL N46/NHTSA 13V-252 IN JANUARY THAT SAID I WOULD NEED TO CONTACT MY DEALER IN ORDER TO GET THE FUEL TANK LEAKAGE ISSUE FIXED. I HAVE CALLED DEALERS REPEATEDLY AND THEY KEEP SAYING THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN FIVE MONTHS AND THAT IS TOO LONG TO WAIT. THE RECALL NOTICE STATED THAT IF THE DEALER FAILS TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT WIHIN A REASONABLE TIME, I MAY SUBMIT A WRITTEN COMPLAINT TO THIS WEBSITE. THAT IS WHAT I AM DOING NOW. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT FURTHER STEPS I NEED TO TAKE TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING THIS DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. *JS

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I PURCHASED A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY SUMMER OF 2013 AND THE FIRST TIME I FILLED IT UP, THE FUEL OVERFLOWED ONTO THE BACK FENDER AND ONTO THE GROUND. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS NUMEROUS TIMES WHEN ATTEMPTING TO FILL THE TANK FULLY. IT RESULTS IN A MESS AT BEST AND A FIRE HAZARD AT WORST. THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE, YET HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED FOR RESOLUTION. I WOULD SAY THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD AND RISK. PLEASE CONSIDER ACTION. *TR

SUSPENSION, WHEELS, STEERING
AS I HAD JUST EXITED THE FLORIDA'S TURNPIKE NORTH BOUND AT KENDALL DRIVE IN MIAMI AND ATTEMPTED TO ENTER THE TOWN AND COUNTRY MALL AT ABOUT 20 MPH, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE BALL JOINT OF MY 2006 CRD 4X4 JEEP LIBERTY CAME APART CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOCK THE FRONT WHEEL AS THE STEERING ARM WITH PART OF THE BALL JOINT ENTER AND LANDED INSIDE THE RIM AND THE TIRE, PERFORATING IT AND PREVENTING THE TIRE FROM TURNING CAUSING THE JEEP TO ALMOST BUCK LIKE A HORSE SENDING US HEAD FIRST TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. THANKFULLY, IT DID NOT HAPPEN 45 SECONDS EARLIER WHEN MY FAMILY AND I WERE ON THE EXPRESS WAY DRIVING 65 MPH...IT WOULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC! THIS EQUIPMENT/PART FAILURE IS KNOWN AS RECALL F-23 BY CHRYSLER/JEEP AND THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF IT!! I WAS NEVER AWARE OF SUCH RECALL !! CHRYSLER/JEEP, AFTER ONE MONTH AT THEIR DEALER CONTINUE TO REFUSE TO FIX THE COLLATERAL DAMAGE ON THE VEHICLE (RIM, ETC) CREATED BY THEIR DEFECTIVE PART!! USING AS AN EXCUSE THAT THE FACTORY WARRANTY IS OVER WHEN IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT. CHRYSLER SENT AN "INDEPENDENT" INSPECTOR TO VIEW THE VEHICLE. THIS "INDEPENDENT" INSPECTOR'S BILL IS PAID BY CHRYSLER. THIS EQUIPMENT FAILURE IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!! AND COULD BE FATAL!!! PLEASE HELP!! AT THIS TIME I ONLY WANT MY JEEP FIXED PROPERLY, AND THAT CHRYSLER HONORS THE TRADITIONAL JEEP QUALITY AND COMMITMENT TO THEIR CUSTOMERS!! A LETTER HAS BEEN SENT TO CHRYSLER CLAIMS AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM IN PERSON AND VIA TELEPHONE. NO RESULTS!! UPDATED 06/04/14
