POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY
2003 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT (4X4) VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY BETWEEN 45-55 MPH. DEALERSHIP REPLACED REAR DRIVE SHAFT, WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS MY SECOND JEEP LIBERTY WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE FIRST WAS A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT (4X4) WITH A VIBRATION PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FRONT AND REAR DRIVES SHAFTS ON THIS VEHICLE, WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE WAS REPLACED BY CHRYSLER UNDER THE WISCONSIN LEMON LAW. MY CONCERN IS THAT THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE JEEP LIBERTY THAT CHRYSLER DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR.

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
I HAD A HEAD ON CRASH WITH A CEMENT DIVIDER ON DEC 24TH 2002. THE LIBERTY WAS A TOTAL LOSS AND I RECEIVED A HEAD, NECK AND BACK INJURY. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY EVEN THOUGH I WAS TRAVELING 65 MPH WHEN THE CRASH ACCORDED. CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED AND TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE AIRBAGS. THEY STATED THE THRESHOLD FOR THE SENSORS WERE NOT MET AND IF THEY HAD, I COULD HAVE BEEN HURT WORSE. THEY SAID AIRBAGS DEPLOY AT 200 MPH AND CAN CAUSE INJURIES WORSE THAN THE CRASH. *JB

WHEELS
STEEL WHEELS ON MY JEEP LIBERTY HAVE A LIPID GROVE THAT FILLS WITH ICE,SNOW,MUD AND SAND. THIS IS ESPECIALLY BAD WITH OFF ROAD USE. THIS CAUSES THE FRONT WHEEL BALANCE TO GO OUT AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO STEER AND HANDLE VERY ERRACTICALLY. IT MAY TAKE SEVERAL TRIES WITH A POWER HOSE TO CLEAR THE WHEELS. YOU CANNOT SEE BEHIND THE SPOKES TO SEE IF ALL IS CLEAR.*JB

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
2003 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED-HUMMING/VIBRATION ON RIGHT SIDE OF VEHICLE-EXTREMELY BAD IN THE MORNING BUT CAN BE HEARD THROUGHOUT THE DAY AS THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. CHRYSLER TECH IS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT IN SOME LIBERTYS BUT DOESN'T KNOW WHY IT OCCURS OR HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE INSTEAD CHOSEN TO CALL THIS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. OWNERS OF VEHICLES WITH THIS DEFECT MAY BE AT RISK SINCE CHRYSLER HAS NO IDEA WHAT IS CAUSING THE VIBRATION/HUMMING AND NO CURRENT FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. *NLM

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD
LAST WEEK I HAD 5 ROCK CHIPS REPAIRED IN MY WINDSHIELD. YESTERDAY I HEARD A LOUD PING AND SAW ANOTHER CHIP (FROM NO OBVIOUS SOURCE). THIS MORNING, I FOUND A LARGE CRACK ABOUT 16 INCHES LONG FROM YET ANOTHER CHIP I HADN'T EVEN NOTICED. I BELIEVE THE WINDSHIELD GLASS IS EXTREMELY BRITTLE AND/OR ANGLED IN SUCH A WAY AS TO CATCH ANY ROCKS THAT MAY HIT IT AND BREAK AND/OR CHIP WITH MINIMUM FORCE. *NLM
