FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
GAS SPEWS DRAMATICALLY OUT OF THE GAS TANK WHEN FILLING. A FRIEND OF MINE HAS THE SAME VEHICLE AND HIS DOES THE SAME THING. WE CANNOT FILL OUR TANKS FULL, REGARDLESS OF THE FILLING STATION. WE ESTIMATE THAT 1-2 CUPS OF GASOLINE SPEW OUT ONTO THE SIDE OF THE JEEP. IT SPEWS FAR ENOUGH TO SATURATE CLOTHING OF THE PERSON FILLING UP THE TANK. MY WIFE'S HAIRDRESSER REPORTS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HER 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. *CN

AUTOMATIC WINDOWS KEEP COMING OUT OF THEIR TRACK. HAVE HAD THREE OF THE FOUR WINDOWS FIXED AND THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED. HAD THE SAME WINDOWS REPLACED WITH A SYSTEM INVOLVING REPLACING THE WHOLE WINDOW AND THE DEFECTED PART INSIDE OF THE DOOR. TWO OF THE THREE WINDOWS WERE FIXED FOR THE SECOND TIME OUT OF WARRANTY BUT NOW CHRYSLER IS STATING I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE AFTER MARKET TINT AND THEY WILL REIMBURSE ME PART OF THE PRICE BUT CANNOT SAY HOW MUCH UNTIL AFTER I REPLACE THE WINDOW TINT. *TR

JEEP WINDOWS: JEEP CHANGED THE MOTOR/REGULATOR STYLE AND NOW YOU HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW WINDOW TO GET YOUR ELECTRIC WINDOWS TO WORK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THEY WILL NOT RECALL THE MOTORS OR REGULATORS. YOU CAN CALL ANY JEEP DEALER AND THEY WILL ADMIT THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS AND WANT THE CONSUMER TO PAY 1/2 THE COST FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY KNOW IS WRONG. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY AND I HAVE REPLACED ALL 4 WINDOW REGULATORS/MOTORS. THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY ARE A PROBLEM WITH THE LIBERATES AND ARE KNOWN TO REPEATEDLY BREAK WITH NORMAL USE. THE FIRST TIME THEY BROKE WAS ONLY ONE YEAR AND 6,000 MILES. THE SECOND TIME WAS SIX MONTHS LATER ON A ROAD TRIP. I HAD TO GET THEM REPAIRED OUT OF STATE. AFTER THREE YEARS AND HAVING THEM ALL REPLACED, THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WAS STILL HANGING AND WAS REPAIRED AGAIN. NOW AT THE PRESENT TIME 1/27/2010 AND 19,000 MILES THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW COMPONENTS ARE BROKEN AGAIN AND WILL NEED TO BE TAKED IN FOR ANOTHER REPAIR. THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED. THIS HAS CAUSED A GREAT AMOUNT OF ECONOMIC STRESS FOR MYSELF AND MANY OTHER JEEP OWNERS WHO ARE FORCED TO KEEP HANDING OVER MONEY TO JEEP FOR A PART THAT THEY KNOW IS DEFECTIVE.*CW

WE HAVE HAD THIS 2006 JEEP LIBERTY FOR JUST OVER A YEAR NOW AND HAS BEEN OK UNTIL NOW. THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATOR TOOK A $%!@. TOOK APART MYSELF AND FOUND A BROKEN PLASTIC PIECE THAT CONNECTS TO THE DRIVE CABLE. THOUGHT I COULD FIND THIS SMALL PLASTIC PART AT THE DEALER AND THEY SAID I HAD TO BY THE WHOLE REGULATOR ASSEMBLY FOR $244. EVEN BETTER, WHILE I WAS IN LINE THERE WAS A LADY IN LINE FOR THE SAME REASON. THAT'S WHEN I FOUND ALL KINDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME REASON ON-LINE. THIS JEEP ONLY HAS 42,000 MILES AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS THIS PREMATURE. IF CHRYSLER CAN'T REPLACE THIS PART FREE OF CHARGE THEN THIS WILL BE THE LAST VEHICLE WE BUY FROM THEM. CHRYSLER, FIX YOUR PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

2006 JEEP LIBERTY POWER WINDOWS FALL INTO THE DOOR. REQUIRES NEW REGULATOR AND WINDOW GLASS INSTALLED. ALL FOUR WINDOWS IN MY VEHICLE HAVE FAILED IN THE PAST 14 MONTHS SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. DEALER REPLACED 3 UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THE 4TH HAPPENED 132 MILES OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY. DEALER SAYS CHRYSLER WILL NOT FIX UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS A VERY WELL KNOWN PROBLEM THAT HAS AFFECTED PRACTICALLY ALL 2006 JEEP LIBERTYS ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT MY DEALERSHIP. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE BACK WINDOW OF MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT FELL DOWN IN THE DOOR WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING IT ON THE INTERSTATE. THE CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND THE WINDOW IS RARELY USED. WE DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN OF PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE THAT USE IT. I CALLED THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER TO FIND OUT THAT IT WOULD COST $550 TO REPLACE THE WINDOW AND MECHANISM (THE WINDOW DIDN'T BREAK, BUT THE NEW WINDOW REGULATOR ASSEMBLY REQUIRES IT). MY WIFE AND I TALKED TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND THEY DID PICK UP 50% OF THE COST. *TR

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION
KEY IS STUCK IN IGNITION WHICH IS UNSAFE TO LEAVE VEHICLE UNATTENDED AT ANY TIME, MY DEALER HAS ADVISED ME THAT THE PROBLEM IS THE GEAR SHIFTER AND SINCE THE VEHICLE IS EASILY SHIFTED INTO GEAR WITHOUT A KEY IT COULD HAVE ROLLED AWAY IF PLACED IN THE NEUTRAL OR DRIVE GEAR. *TR

REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW FELL DOWN INTO DOOR WHILE DRIVING. THIS OCCURRED WHEN I USED THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH TO LOWER WINDOW SLIGHTLY. 5 YEAR OLD NEPHEW IN REAR SEAT SATURATED BY RAIN. UNABLE TO PULL OVER RIGHT AWAY DUE SINCE I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 80. THIS IS THE 5TH TIME A WINDOW REGULATOR IS THIS VEHICLE, 2006 JEEP LIBERTY, HAS FAILED IN THE PAST 3 YEARS. *TR

THE WINDOW REGULATOR ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW SUDDENLY BROKE WHILE DRIVING AS I WAS ROLLING UP THE WINDOW, CAUSING THE WINDOW TO CRACK WHILE HALFWAY DOWN. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. LAST TIME IT WAS ON A LEFT, REAR WINDOW. I BROUGHT IT TO TYSON'S JEEP IN VIRGINIA AND THEY SAID IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT NOT PART OF A RECALL. THEY REPLACED THE REGULATOR AND THE GLASS, COSTING ME APPROXIMATELY $500. THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE, BUT ARE OF THE SAME DESIGN, SO THE PROBLEM COULD REOCCUR AT ANY TIME. *TR

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
THE IGNITION KEY WAS STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND THE BRAKE PARK INTERLOCK MECHANISM WAS NOT WORKING. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER THROUGH IT'S ENTIRE RANGE WITHOUT PRESSING THE LOCK BUTTON ON THE SHIFTER KNOB. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD SINCE WITHOUT THESE SAFETY MECHANISMS OPERATING CORRECTLY THE SHIFTER CAN BE ACCIDENTALLY KNOCKED ONTO DRIVE. THE WEAK LINK IS A PLASTIC PUSH ROD IN THE SHIFTER MECHANISM THAT IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH FOR THE JOB. MANY CHRYSLER SHIFTERS WILL FAIL IN THIS MANNER. *TR
