FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
SINCE I HAVEN RECEIVED MY JEEP LIBERTY RENEGADE 2006 MODEL. MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE NOTICED THAT EVERYTIME WE WOULD FILL UP THE GAS TANK. THAT LOTS OF GAS WOULD POUR OUT ONTO THE CAR AND THE GROUND. WE HAVE DONE INTERNET RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND THAT LOTS OF JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. THERE ARE VIDEOS AND THOUSANDS OF COMMENTS IN REGARDS TO THIS ISSUE. I HAVE ALSO CONTACTED THE EPA,[XXX] AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND HAD CHRYSLER ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS ISSUE. HOWEVER MY VEHICLE YEAR FALLS OUT OF THE RECALL DATES LISTED. WE I SPOKE WITH THEM THEY SAID TO CONTACT YOU GUYS BECAUSE THERE IS NOT AS MANY OF MY VEHICLE YEARS TO EXPAND THE RECALL. I FEEL THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND NEED HELP WITH TRYING TO GET A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE YEAR. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO OUR LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER AND THEY WANT TO PAY FOR A BRAND NEW GAS TANK AT $500.00+ AND I DON'T FEEL THAT BECAUSE I OWN A 06 AND NOT AN 07 OR 08 THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS DEFECT. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER MAIN NUMBER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. WHEN IT SHOULD BE.

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
WHILE DRIVING THE 2006 JEEP LIBERTY ACROSS THE COUNTRY FROM PA TO TX THE 2ND BACK WINDOW FELL INTO THE DOOR WITH OUR DOG IN THE BACK, THIS COULD OF CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENED TO BOTH MY BACK WINDOWS, BOTH THESE ARE CHILD SAFETY WINDOWS, AND IF SOMEONE HAD A CHILD IN A CAR SEAT IN THESE JEEPS COULD HAVE HAD A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT WHEN THIS HAPPENED, WINTER MONTHS, STORMS ETC. PLEASE RECALL THESE HAZARDOUS WINDOW REGULATORS ON THE 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. I WAS TOLD BY THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, THE CHRYSLER COMPANY WILL PAY 1/2 FOR THE REPAIR,. I AM ASKING FOR AN IMMEDIATE RECALL AND REPLACEMENT FOR THE WINDOW REGULATORS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT. *TR

SUSPENSION
I MADE AN APPOINTMENT ON 23 MARCH 2013 WITH THE LOCAL WILLIAMSBURG, VA CHRYSLER TO HAVE THE REAR SUSPENSION LOWER CONTROL ARMS REPLACED ON 5 APRIL 2013. I DROPPED THE JEEP LIBERTY OFF ON 4 APRIL 2013. I RECEIVED A CALL AT 0815 FROM THE DEALERSHIP STATING THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART IN AND THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER IT AND IT COULD BE IN ON MONDAY 8 APRIL 2013. I HAD ALREADY TAKEN A DAY OFF FROM WORK TO GET THIS DONE. I WENT IN TO PICK UP THE JEEP AND SPOKE TO [XXX] AT THE WILLIAMSBURG, VA CHRYSLER/JEEP/DODGE/KIA DEALERSHIP AND WANTED TO KNOW WHY IT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART IN. HE STATED THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THAT PART IN STOCK AND THAT HE WOULD NOT ORDER THE PART UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED TO SEE IF IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WELL DUH! IF I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER STATING THAT THE PART NEEDS TO BE REPLACED THEN THE PART SHOULD BE ORDERED AND WAITING FOR ME. THE DEALERSHIP ALREADY HAS A BAD REPUTATION WITH LOCAL MECHANICS. DEFINITELY CALLING COPRATE TO REPORT THE POOR SERVICE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
I FIRST BOUGHT THE JEEP IN 2008 (USED). EVERYTHINE I WENT TO FILL THE TANK, ABOUT 1 CUP OF GAS WOULD SPILL OUT WHEN IT WAS FULL. I GOT USED TO THIS BUT NOW THE SERVICE LIGHT POPS ON AND THE GASCAP WARING APPEARS IN THE ODOMETER WINDOW. SPOKE TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT IT WOULD COST ABOUT $1200 TO GET IT REPLACED AT MY OWN EXPENSE. THE OTHER ISSE IS THAT I HAD TO REPLACE THREE (3) REGULATORS FOR MY REAR WINDOWS (2 ON THE DRIVER SIDE AND ONE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE) IF THERE HAVE BEEN OVER 300+ COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS, WHY HASN'T CHRYSLER RECALL THE VEHICLE TO TAKE CARE OF THESE PROBLEMS. *TR

ENGINE
VEHICLE STARTED EXHIBITING A CYL #3 MISFIRE SHOWING CODE P0303 AND ALL THE SIGNS INCLUDED IN TSB 09-007-06. WAS ALSO DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER AND HAVING DEFECTIVE CYLINDER VALVES AND VALVE LOCKS. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY REFUSE TO ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE A SERVICE BULLETIN OUT ABOUT IT. THIS ISSUE IS CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO PRODUCE MORE EMISSIONS AND WASTE MORE GAS WHILE IT RUNS INCORRECTLY ALSO CAUSING PREMATURE DAMAGE TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. ANY HELP THE NHTSA CAN PROVIDE TO HELP RECTIFY THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREAT HELP AS JEEP WANTS TO HIDE FROM ALL OF THERE DEFECTIVE PARTS BEHIND NEW OWNER FIAT. *TR

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
WHILE DRIVING A PASSENGER ON THE REAR LEFT SIDE OF MY CAR ATTEMPTED TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW. WE THEN HEARD A POP AND THE WINDOW WAS HALF WAY DOWN AND BEGAN TO FALL. WE WERE ABLE TO KEEP THE WINDOW FROM FALLING INTO THE DOOR. THE MOTOR CONTINUED TO SOUND AS IF IT WAS WORKING BUT WOULD NOT ALLOW THE WINDOW TO GO UP OR DOWN. APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS LATER THE REAR RIGHT SIDE WINDOW WAS BEING ROLLED DOWN AND WE AGAIN HEARD A POPPING SOUND AND THE WINDOW AGAIN WOULD NOT ROLL UP OR DOWN. AFTER RESEARCH IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE AND DUE TO HAVING TWO OUT OF FOUR WINDOWS ON MY CAR ALONE EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM IT SEEMS VERY STRANGE TO ME THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED AS A RECALL AND IS COSTING OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES OVER $400 PER WINDOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR THE RISK OF SOMEONE BREAKING IN TO A VEHICLE AND ALSO THE RISK OF THE WINDOW FALLING AND BREAKING PUTTING ANYONE IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE VEHICLE AT RISK OF INJURY, INCLUDING MY DAUGHTER. *TR

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DROPPED - IT'S THE WINDOW REGULATOR - AGAIN. HAVE REPLACED THE OTHER WINDOW PLATES AND REGULATORS IN THIS CAR 4 TIMES! REALLY SCARY WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING AND THE WINDOW SUDDENLY DROPS! ESPECIALLY NICE WHEN IT'S POURING OUT! PREVIOUSLY WAS REIMBURSED BY CHRYSLER FOR REPAIRS, BUT NOW THEY'VE 'CHANGED THEIR POLICY' (REALLY????). THIS WILL COST ME $375 AT MY OWN SHOP AS OPPOSED TO $508 AT THE JEEP DEALERSHIP. I WOULDN'T CARE IF IT WAS TWICE THE PRICE, I'M NOT GIVING JEEP A DIME! THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ITEM, THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES. *TR

2006 JEEP LIBERTY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE WINDOW PARTS INSTALLED IN VEHICLE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE WINDOW HAS BEEN REPLACED FIVE TIMES WITHIN THE LAST FOUR MONTHS, IN ADDITION, TO THE PREVIOUS 11-12 REPLACEMENTS IN 2007. THE CONSUMER STATED USING THE SAME DEFECTIVE PARTS WAS NOT GOING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. ALSO, WHEN THE WINDOWS WERE DOWN, THERE WAS A THUMPING AND WIND NOISE, THAT WAS UNBEARABLE. THE CONSUMER STATED THINGS WERE STOLEN OUT OF HIS VEHICLE, BECAUSE THE WINDOWS WOULD NOT GO UP. ALSO THERE WAS A NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE AND THE DOORS WOULD VIBRATE WHEN THE WINDOWS WERE DOWN.

THE 2006 JEEP LIBERTY SPILLS FUEL WHEN FILLING AT A GAS STATION. THE STATION PUMP SHUTS OFF AND THEN A FEW CUPS OF FUEL OVERFLOWS ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. IF IT IS WINDY, YOU WILL GET FUEL EVERYWHERE. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT GAS STATION YOU GO TO OR HOW FAST YOU FILL UP. YOUR ONLY OPTION IS TO STOP THE PUMP BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL. *TR
