FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER
I HAVE A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED WITH APPROXIMATELY 88,000 MILES ON IT. RECENTLY I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE A PROBLEM WHERE THE FUEL PUMP NOZZLE DOES NOT SHUT ITSELF OFF AUTOMATICALLY WHEN MY FUEL TANK IS FULL. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL PUMP AT THE STATION, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED AT MULTIPLE STATIONS AND EVERY TIME I PUMP FUEL. I'VE JUST BEEN TRYING TO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION AND STOP THE FUEL FLOW BEFORE MY TANK GETS FULL. THIS OVERFLOWING FUEL IS GOING TO DAMAGE THE PAINT ON MY VEHICLE AND IS A FIRE HAZARD AT THE GAS STATION, NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT THE FUEL HAS SPEWED ONTO MY SHOES AND CLOTHING ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE PROGRESSING NOW, AS YESTERDAY WHEN I WENT TO GET FUEL, THE NOZZLE SPEWED IMMEDIATELY UPON BEGINNING TO PUMP (AND THE TANK WAS NEARLY EMPTY AS MY FUEL LEVEL INDICATOR HAD JUST GONE OFF). THE ONLY WAY I COULD GET FUEL INTO MY TANK WAS TO MANUALLY CONTROL THE FLOW WITH THE NOZZLE SO THAT IT WENT INTO THE TANK VERY SLOWLY. I HAVE CONTACTED MY JEEP DEALERSHIP AND HAVE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT LATER THIS WEEK. I'VE READ ABOUT A LOT OF OTHERS WITH THIS ISSUE, AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY WILL NEED TO REPLACE MY FUEL TANK. *TR

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 40 MPH. WAS NOT ROLLING UP OR DOWN THE POWER WINDOWS, WHEN THE BACK WINDOW SUDDENLY FELL FROM BEING CLOSED TO HALF OPEN. IT WOULD NOT ROLL BACK UP. IT WAS STARTLING AND DISTRACTED MY DRIVING MOMENTARILY. FAULTY REGULATORS WERE THE CAUSE OF PREVIOUS FAILURES AND THE BROKEN GLASS AND I EXPECT THE SAME DETERMINATION WILL BE MADE WHEN I BRING IT TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP LATER THIS WEEK FOR REPAIR. THE MOST RECENT (NOV. 29, 2010) FAILURE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BACK WINDOW WAS THE SECOND TIME THIS OCCURRED ON THIS PARTICULARLY WINDOW. PREVIOUS REPAIRS INVOLVED WINDOW AND REGULATOR REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A MASSIVE PROBLEM WITH JEEP LIBERTY SUVS AND A REAL SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN IN MY OPINION. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY 2005 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED 4WD OVERFLOWS ITS FUEL TANK EVERY TIME IT IS REFUELED. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT, AND THIS PROBLEM HAS APPEARED CONSISTENTLY EACH OF THE LAST 5 TIMES I HAVE REFUELED. THE FUEL WILL CONTINUE TO FILL AND THEN OVERFLOW THE TANK UNLESS MANUALLY STOPPED. THE PROBLEM OCCURS REGARDLESS OF WHERE THE FUELING OCCURS; ANY FUEL PUMP CAUSES THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM MUST LIE IN THE FUEL TANK SYSTEM OF THE VEHICLE ITSELF. *TR

THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW FELL OFF OF ITS TRACK AND FELL DOWN INSIDE THE DOOR, WHERE MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS SEATED, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN 65 MPH DOWN A MAJOR HIGHWAY, ON THE WAY TO VISIT FAMILY OUT OF STATE. I HAD A SIMILAR INCIDENT A YEAR AGO, BUT WITH THE DRIVERSIDE WINDOW. THIS WINDOW TRACK WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT THE GLASS HAD TO BE PAID OUT OF POCKET (BECAUSE OF A CHANGE DONE TO THE NEW TRACK). THE RECENT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REPAIRED. *TR
