SEATS, VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
WINDOW REGULATORS ON MY JEEP LIBERTY REPEATEDLY FAILING. I'VE HAD TO HAVE THE REGULATORS REPAIRED FIVE TIMES ON A 2007 VEHICLE. WINDOWS FALL DOWN WHILE DRIVING IN THE VEHICLE AND WON'T ROLL BACK UP. I'VE CONTACTED LOCAL DEALERS AND THEY ARE ALSO FRUSTRATED AND SAID JEEP WON'T RECALL THE VEHICLES AND CREATE A PERMANENT FIX. I ALSO CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORPORATION AND THEY WERE NOT HELPFUL TO ME -- THEY SHIFTED FOCUS TO THE DEALER. ALSO, LIKE THE OTHER POST, MY CAR HAD WATER ON THE SEAT AND IT CREATED A PERMANENT BROWN STAIN. IT WAS BOTTLED WATER. THE SEATS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE STAIN RESISTANT AND THEY ARE NOT. CHRYSLER IS NOT STANDING BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS, THE SEATS AND THE WINDOW REGULATORS ARE DEFECTIVE! *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
2007 JEEP LIBERTY WITH SEVERAL TRANSMISSION ISSUES. CONSUMER STATES CHRYSLER NEVER GAVE A RESPONSE TO HIS LETTER AND WANTS THE LIFETIME WARRANTY EXTENDED SINCE CHRYSLER CHANGED IT 4 MONTHS AFTER HE PURCHASED VEHICLE AND A REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION. *NJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER REPROGRAMMED THE ECU SEVERAL TIMES, REPLACED THE TORQUE CONVERTER TWICE, REPLACED THE PUMP, REPLACED THE VALVE BODY, CLEANED DEBRIS OUT OF THE PUMP, SERVICED THE CLUTCH, BUT THE TRANSMISSION STILL MADE A HORRIBLE NOISE PERIODICALLY. SINCE THE LAST ATTEMPT TO FIX THE PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE HAD A POOR THROTTLE RESPONSE. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED IT WOULDN'T CREEP INTO GEAR LIKE A NORMAL AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION; INSTEAD IT NEEDED SIGNIFICANT THROTTLE APPLICATION TO GET MOVING, THEN IT LUNGED. *JB

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
RE: 2007 JEEP LIBERTY - SENT YOU A CERTIFIED LETTER ON AUGUST 16. POST OFFICE SHOWS IT WAS DELIVERED ON AUGUST 20. NEVER RECEIVED THE RETURNED RECEIPT. WAS MAILED TO 400 - 7TH STREET IN WASHINGTON, DC. WAS THIS LETTER RECEIVED? HOW LONG IS THE PROCESSING BEFORE WE RECEIVE ANY RESPONSE? SHOULD I MAIL IT AGAIN TO 1200 NEW JERSEY AVENUE SE? PROBLEM: WITH THE DRIVER'S FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE VEHICLE IS STOPPING, THE ENGINE RACES AND THE CAR LURCHES FORWARD. IT REQUIRES BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE FOR THE CAR TO STOP. IT HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE 4 TIMES AND THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT LOCATE THE PROBLEM. THE LETTER IS MORE DETAILED, 3 PAGES IN LENGTH. I WILL BE HAPPY TO RE-SEND IT IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT. LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION IN THIS MATTER. *TR

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS, SEATS
2007 JEEP LIBERTY ALL MOTORS IN THE WINDOWS ARE FAULTY. HAVE CONDUCTED RESEARCH IN ONLINE FORUMS AND HAVE CONCLUDED THAT MOST CONSUMERS OF 2001-2007 JEEP LIBERTY'S ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES WITH POWER WINDOW FAILURE. MOST ISSUES ARE FIXED DURING WARRANTY, AND CONTINUE TO OCCUR UNTIL LONG AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRES. ALSO** THE SEATS ON 2003-2007 JEEP LIBERTY'S ARE REPORTED AS BEING STAIN RESISTANT. SOMETHING WITHIN THE SEAT FABRIC CAUSES THE SEATS TO STAIN WITH A BROWNISH COLOR AFTER ANY LIQUID SUBSTANCE HITS THEM. HAVE RAN A TEST ON MY OWN VEHICLE WITH FILTERED TAP WATER AND BROWN STAIN STILL CONTINUED TO APPEAR. ADDRESSED DAIMLER CHRYSLER ABOUT ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS "BAD RAIN IN MY AREA". I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT EVERY STATE IN THIS COUNTRY HAS BAD RAIN PROBLEMS AND IN ANY CASE RAIN SHOULD NOT CAUSE A STAIN ON THE UPHOLSTERY OF A 20,000+ DOLLAR VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT A LAWSUIT SHOULD BE FILED AGAINST DAIMLER CHRYSLER DEMANDING A RECALL ON ALL SEATS AND POWER WINDOWS WITH A FIX TO THE SOLUTION OR SHOULD HAVE TO REIMBURSE EVERY SINGLE CUSTOMER ALL THE MONEY THEY HAVE SPENT OVER THE YEARS TRYING TO FIX THESE RE-OCCURRING ISSUES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP. SINCERELY, SGT NATHAN COSSEY UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS *TR

AFTER MINIMAL USE OF THE REAR WINDOWS ON MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY I HAVE HAD 3 FAILURES. I BOUGHT THE JEEP IN JANUARY 2007 AND HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTIL AUGUST 2008. AT THAT POINT I HAD THE DRIVERS REAR WINDOW REPAIRED DUE TO THE INADEQUATE WINDOW MECHANISM. IN JULY 2008 THE PASSENGER REAR WINDOW WENT DOWN FOR THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE REPAIRS WERE BEING COMPLETED WITH A HIGHER QUALITY SYSTEM SO THAT IT WOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE. IN AUGUST 2008 THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW BROKE AGAIN. AT THIS POINT I HAVE HAD TO LEAVE WORK 3 TIMES TO GET REPAIRS ON MY WINDOWS. THE DEALERSHIP THIS TIME TOLD ME THAT JEEP IS NOT PROVIDING A BETTER SOLUTION TO FIXING THE WINDOWS. WHEN I CALLED AND TOLD THEM THE ISSUE WITH THE WINDOW THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY ASKED IF IT WAS A LIBERTY. APPARENTLY THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THAT THEY SEE SEVERAL TIME DAILY. MY QUESTION IS WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUE FROM JEEP IF THERE IS SUCH A HIGH VOLUME IN REPAIRS. ALTHOUGH MISSING WORK EVERY FEW MONTHS TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT A HUGE INCONVENIENCE I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE SAME REPAIRS AFTER THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR

I HAD TO GET TWO WINDOW REGULATORS REPLACED IN MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. THE JEEP HAS 19,000 MILES ON IT WHEN THE FIRST WAS REPLACED. ANOTHER WAS DONE AT 30,000. I AM NOW AT 32,000 AND THE ONE THE WAS REPLACED AT 19,000 IS BAD AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP IS QUICK TO REPLACE THE REGULATORS, AND I'VE BEEN TOLD DIRECTLY FRONT HE DEALERSHIP THAT THESE ARE A COMMON PROBLEM. MY WARRANTY RUNS OUT IN 3,000 MILES AND THEN IT WILL COST ME 79 FOR THE PART, PLUS THE LABOR OF HAVING IT INSTALLED EVERYTIME ONE GOES BAD. THE JEEP BRAND SHOULD BE LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE INSTEAD OF SIMPLY REPLACING THEM WHEN THEY GO BAD. TYPICALLY WHEN THEY STOP WORKING, THE WINDOW WILL EITHER FALL, OR GET STUCK DOWN. IT IS AN INCONVENIENCE TO KEEP HAVING TO RETURN TOT HE DEALER EVER COUPLE OF MONTHS TO KEEP MY WINDOWS WORKING PROPERLY. *TR

EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I PURCHASED A NEW 2007 JEEP LIBERTY AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT COME FROM THE FACTORY WITH A TRAILER HITCH OR WIRING HARNESS. ON JUNE 14, I HAD THE DEALER INSTALL THE CHRYSLER RECOMMENDED HARNESS. THE HARNESS THEY INSTALLED IS THE ONE CHRYSLER SUPPLIES AND REQUIRES FOR VEHICLES WITH AN OVERHEAD CONSOLE, WHICH MY VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH. IT IS A SEVEN-WAY HARNESS, SPECIFIED AS MOPAR PART NUMBER 82207248. AFTER THE HARNESS WAS INSTALLED BY THE DEALER, I NOTICED THAT THE RUNNING LIGHTS ON MY TRAILER WERE NOT WORKING. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER WHO TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO FIX IT, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL, EVEN WITH ADVICE GIVEN BY THE CHRYSLER TECHNICAL HOTLINE. WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER'S HOTLINE TO SEE IF IT WAS POSSIBLE TO FIX, THEY TOLD ME THEY PROVIDED THE DEALER WITH THE INFORMATION TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WAS NOT THEIR PROBLEM, BUT THE DEALER'S. THEY SUGGESTED I TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALER. IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THAT TWO CHRYSLER DEALERS WERE UNABLE TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM ALREADY, SUGGESTING THAT I GO TO YET ANOTHER DEALER WAS VERY POOR ADVICE. THE SERVICE I RECEIVED FROM BOTH DEALERS WAS EXCELLENT, HOWEVER, THE CHRYSLER HOTLINE PERSONNEL WERE VERY RUDE TO ME, HAD NO CONCERN IN REGARD TO CORRECTING THE PROBLEM, AND PLACED BLAME ON THE DEALERS. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THIS HARNESS WILL NOT WORK AS REQUIRED FOR THE 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. ALTHOUGH THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS WORK, THE RUNNING LIGHTS ON THE TRAILER DO NOT. I REQUEST THAT ALL 2007 LIBERTIES THAT HAVE THE DEALER INSTALLED TRAILER PACKAGE WITH THE MOPAR HARNESS NUMBER 82207248 BE RECALLED AND FIXED. THIS PROBLEM IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND ONE FOR WHICH CHRYSLER NEEDS TO FIND A FIX, RATHER THAN CONTINUING TO PLACE BLAME ON THE DEALERS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
WE HAVE A NEW 2007 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED, PURCHASED LAST MARCH. IMMEDIATELY WE NOTICED THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WAS INACCURATE AND ALWAYS READING FAST. THIS WAS NOTICEABLY EVIDENT AS WE PASSED THROUGH SAFETY AND SCHOOL ZONES THAT SHOW THE CAR SPEED ON THE ROADSIDE. I HAD THE DEALER CHECK IT OUT AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEMS. SO WE STARTED MEASURING USING ROADSIDE MILEAGE MARKERS AND A TIMER. WE FOUND THAT AT 60 MILES/HOUR IT TOOK 315 SECONDS TO GO 5 MILES. THAT'S 5% @ 60 MPH OR 3 MPH. WE ALSO FOUND THAT IT WAS ALSO OFF BY 3 MPH AT ALL OTHER SPEEDS TOO, SO AT 30 MPH THAT TURNED OUT TO BE 10%. THAT'S UNACCEPTABLE ! HOWEVER CHRYSLER SAYS THAT'S ACCEPTABLE AND IN FACT POINTS OUT IN A PRINTED REPLY THAT THE GOVERNMENT ALLOWS THAT DEGREE OF ACCURACY NOW ASSUMING MY AVERAGE SPEED IS ABOUT 45 MPH, 3 MPH IS A 7.5% INACCURACY. I ALSO PURCHASED A LONG TERM WARRANTY AGREEMENT FROM CHRYSLER AND I WILL BE SHORT CHANGED ON THAT BY 7.5% ALSO AND THAT'S FRAUD! ALL I WANT IS FOR THE CHRYSLER TO FIX THE ALGORITHM THAT COMPUTES THE SPEED AND ODOMETER READING. THE ONLY VARIABLE THE DEALER CAN ADJUST IS THE TIRE SIZE. DOES THE GOVERNMENT SAFETY STANDARDS ALLOW FOR 7.5% INACCURACY? *TR

SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER BALL JOINT
I WAS DRIVING ALONG IN MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY AT 34 M.P.H. WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A HORRIBLE NOISE AND THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY CAR FELL TO THE GROUND. I TRIED TO STEER SAFELY OFF THE ROAD AND FOUND THE CAR ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER AND I WAS HEADING INTO ON-COMING TRAFFIC. I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED AND I HAD TWO PASSENGERS IN MY CAR WHO WITNESSED THE SUDDEN FAILURE OF MY BRAND NEW 8 MONTH OLD CAR! IT APPEARS THAT MY LOWER RIGHT BALL JOINT FELL OUT AND BROKE MY CAR TO THE POINT MY TIRE CAME OFF MY RIM AS MY RIM BROKE WHEN THE CAR FELL TO THE GROUND. THERE IS SO MUCH FRONT END DAMAGE THAT MY CAR IS NOW TOTALED AND I AM OUT A NEW VEHICLE. THE LOCAL DEALER WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM AS THEY SAY THE 2007 WAS NOT PART OF THE MASSIVE RECALL ON OTHER LIBERTY'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I'VE ASKED MY INSURANCE COMPANY FOR AN INVESTIGATION AND I'VE E-MAILED THE JEEP CORPORATION WITH THE SAME REQUEST, BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE GETS HURT OR WORSE! SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP UP HERE AND INVESTIGATE THESE CARS, THEY ARE NOT SAFE AND NOW I'M LEFT WITH NO CAR AND TRYING TO SETTLE WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I'M JUST GLAD THAT I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY, AS MY CAR IS TOTALED FROM 34 M.P.H., I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD I BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY. I'M ALSO THANKFUL MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT IN THE CAR AT THE TIME - PLEASE HELP GET THESE CARS OFF THE ROAD!! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHEN THE DRIVER APPROACHED A STOP SIGN, SHE NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE BRAKES THEN COMPLETELY FAILED AND THE VEHICLE FELT AS IF IT WERE ACCELERATING, CAUSING HER TO CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL ABLE TO BE DRIVEN, BUT THE BRAKES BARELY WORK. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE RECALL NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 9,000.
