2006 JEEP LIBERTY WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK INTERMITTENTLY. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS OF APPLYING SERVICE BRAKE IT COMES OUT SO FAR. DEALERSHIP WANTS $600 BUCKS TO REPLACE SHIFT LEVER TOWER AND SHIFT CABLE. OTHERS ON LINE TALK ABOUT SAME PROBLEM. DEALERSHIPS PLEAD IGNORANCE ON THE PROBLEM, BUT WILL GLADLY TAKE $600 TO REPLACE THE SHIFT LEVER TOWER AND ! *TR

VISIBILITY
THE WINDOW ON MY 07 JEEP LIBERTY STARTED MAKING NOISES WHEN IT WAS ROLLING DOWN AND UP, HOWEVER IT ONLY DID THAT ONCE AND IT STOPPED GOING DOWN OR UP ALTOGETHER. THE WINDOW FALLS DOWN ON ITS OWN WHILE DRIVING, SHUTTING THE DOOR, OR EVEN JUST SITTING THERE. IT FALLS DOWN ABOUT AN INCH AT FIRST AND GRADUALLY GOES DOWN ABOUT ANOTHER INCH. I CONTINUOUSLY HAVE TO PULL THE WINDOW UP MYSELF, JUST TO KEEP IT UP FOR THE SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. THE DEALERSHIP STATED IT WAS A REGULATOR, BUT I HAD TO GET A WHOLE NEW "UPGRADE" FOR MY YEAR OF THE CAR. I BELIEVE THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR ALL OF THESE PARTS, WHEN IT IS HAPPENING TO EVERYONE. I HAVE SEEN SO MANY COMMENTS AND COMPLAINTS. I PERSONALLY CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR IT AND DO NOT WANT TO EXPERIENCE THIS IN THE FUTURE EITHER. *TR

I LEFT WORK TODAY AND WALKED OUT TO MY CAR TO FIND MY BACK DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DOWN. WHEN I TRIED TO PUT IT UP, IT WOULDN'T GO. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM ON THE SAME VEHICLE AND THIS WILL BE THE SECOND TIME, ALMOST A YEAR TO THE DAY, THAT THIS WINDOW HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE REGULATOR WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED, AGAIN, AND THE COST WILL AGAIN BE OVER $300.00. EVEN AFTER THE REGULATOR IS REPLACED MY VEHICLE WILL NOT BE SAFE. THE COMPLETE RANDOMNESS OF THIS OCCURRENCE AND THE FACT THAT THIS IS THE SECOND TIME ON THE SAME WINDOW WITHIN A YEAR, LEAVES ME TO BELIEVE THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I CAN NO LONGER LEAVE ANYTHING OF VALUE IN MY CAR. I HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WHEN TRAVELING WITH MY DOGS. I WON'T BE ABLE TO TAKE CHILDREN IN MY CAR WITHOUT ANOTHER ADULT PRESENT. THE WINDOW FALLS COMPLETELY INTO THE DOOR LEAVING THE SPACE TOTALLY OPEN AND UNSAFE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM, IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

1. THERE ARE NOT EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE. 2. THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR. IT HAS BROKEN 3 TIMES IN TWO YEARS. THE CONSEQUENCE IS THAT DURING TIMES OF EXTREME HEAT OR COLD, THE WINDOW WILL STAY DOWN POSING A HEALTH RISK (IN COLD WEATHER-COLD RELATED ILLNESS AND IN HOT WEATHER-DEHYDRATION) AS WELL AS A SAFETY RISK (OUTSIDE DEBRIS ENTERING VEHICLE AT HIGH VELOCITIES) TO THE REAR PASSENGER. 3. THE REGULATOR HAS BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES: TWICE BY DEALERSHIP AND ONCE BY MYSELF. THE OLD PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE REFUELING GAS WILL OVERFLOW THE FILLER TUBE, SPLASHING ANYWHERE FROM A PINT TO A QUART OF FUEL ONTO THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS ON EVERY FILL UP. THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT IT IS TO GUESS WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS NEARLY FULL AND LISTEN FOR THE FUEL TO APPROACH THE TOP OF THE FILLER TUBE WITH THE FUEL FLOW FROM THE PUMP AS SLOW AS POSSIBLE. THE OTHER ALTERNATIVE IS TO NOT FILL THE TANK TO FULL, GUESSING ABOUT WHERE THE FUEL LEVEL IS BY PUTTING YOUR EAR CLOSE TO THE FILLER HOLE. IN EITHER CASE THERE IS STILL DANGER OF SPILLING FUEL ONTO THE GROUND AND ON THE VEHICLE ITSELF. THE OTHER SIDE EFFECT ARE HIGH LEVELS OF FUEL VAPOR SMELL INSIDE THE VEHICLE ITSELF. THIS SMELL PERSISTS FOR QUITE SOME TIME EVEN WITH THE WINDOWS IN THE DOWN POSITION. THIS HAPPENS EVERY FILL UP AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS. DOESN'T MATTER WHICH GAS STATION I GO TO. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
2005 JEEP CRD, FUEL HEATER POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. DESIGN ALLOWS FUEL FILTER HEAD TO MELT THEN AIR ENTERS THE DIESEL SYSTEM. ENGINE MAY STALL ON HIGHWAY DANGEROUS THING! MINES STALLED OUT AND BEEN TOWED COUPLE TIMES. CHRYSLER HAS BEEN POOR IN FIXING THIS PROBLEM. IF FUEL HEATER WAS TO CATCH FIRE FILTER HEAD AND ALL FUEL COULD BURN TO CRISP IN MINUTES. MAYBE MAKE CHRYLSER OFFER LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THESE RARE DIESELS. I CAN SEE HUGE LAWSUITS TOWARDS CHRYSLER IF SOMEONE WAS TO BE KILLED STALLING AND OR BURNING IN VEHICLE. *TR

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
I BOUGHT A 04 JEEP LIBERTY FOR MY SON. THE DRIVER'S WINDOW WENT OUT IMMEDIATELY AFTER BUYING IT. RESEARCH SHOWED THOUSANDS OF OCCURRENCES OF THIS HAPPENING TO PEOPLE EVERYWHERE. THE NYLON SUPPORT BRACKET IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO PERFORM ITS DESIGNED FUNCTION AND BREAKS OVER AND OVER AGAIN WITH NO RECALL FROM CHRYSLER. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND FOR THAT REASON CHRYSLER SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. CHRYSLER SEEMS TO BE JUST GETTING RICH OFF OF FIXING THEIR BADLY ENGINEERED WINDOW REGULATOR AT THE CONSUMERS EXPENSE. I AM SURE GLAD THE GOVERNMENT GAVE THEM BAIL OUT MONEY BUT WHEN WILL THEY ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR POOR DESIGN AND RECALL THIS WINDOW REGULATOR BRACKET. IN MY CASE, ONLY THE NYLON SUPPORT BRACKET THAT SUPPORTS THE WINDOW TO MOVE UP/DOWN THE TRACK IS BROKEN. THIS IS A SHAMEFUL WAY FOR A CAR MAKER TO HANDLE A PROBLEM THAT IS OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN FLAW. SOME AGENCY NEEDS TO FORCE CHRYSLER TO OWN UP TO THIS AND HELP THE CONSUMER GET WHAT HE PAID FOR - A VEHICLE WITH POWER WINDOWS THAT WORK AS DESIGNED. *TR

JEEP LIBERTY CRD. ENGINE WAS STALLING ON STARTUP. ODB CODE CAME ON AFTER A MONTH OF THIS "FUEL LEAK SEVERE". IT WAS LOOSING PRIME WHILE SITTING DUE TO AIR LEAKING IN. FOUND FUEL LEAK ON PRE-HEATER CONNECTOR TO FUEL WATER SEPARATOR HOUSING. FOUND SOME BURNT PLASTIC WHERE CONNECTOR WAS, CLEARLY IT GOT HOT/FIRE. I FOUND NUMEROUS INCIDENTS OF THIS ON-LINE. CONSIDERING THERE WERE REPORTEDLY LESS THEN 10,000 OF THESE BUILT, THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. *TR
