BACK WINDOWS KEEP FALLING IN TO THE BACK DOORS. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE WINDOW REGULATORS EVERY SIX MONTHS. I'M ON MY SECOND REPLACEMENT DRIVERS SIDE BACK WINDOW AND TREE TRIPS TO FIX IT IN ONE YEAR. THEN IN ONE YEAR THE PASSENGERS SIDE FELL IN AN I HAD TO REPLACE THIS WIDOW REGULATOR TOO. THIS IS BECOMING COSTLY AND SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT IN THIS MODEL 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. I'M GETTING REALLY TIRED OF REPAIRING THESE WINDOW REGULATORS. *TR

WHEN THE WINDOW REGULATOR BREAKS ON A JEEP LIBERTY, THE CABLE ASSEMBLY CAN BREAK OFF OF THE WINDOW. THE CABLE THEN CAN COME OUT OF THE DOOR LOCKING ASSEMBLY IF YOU TRY TO USE THE WINDOW CLOSE SWITCH. THIS WILL PREVENT THE DOOR FROM BEING OPENED. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE SO FAR IN 18 MONTHS. IF THE VEHICLE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT AND EMS NEEDED TO GET A PERSON OUT OF THE VEHICLE, THERE IS NO WAY THEY COULD IN THE ABOVE CONDITIONS. THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THAT ARE OUT THERE ON THIS PROBLEM ARE STAGGERING. PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED BY JEEPS LACK OF RESPONSE. *TR

THE DRIVER'S REAR WINDOW REGULATOR BROKE AND NOW THE WINDOW WILL NOT GO UP AND DOWN AND SLIDES DOWN BY ITSELF. CHRYSLER ONLY SELLS THE MOTOR AND REGULATOR AND EVERYTHING AS ONE PACKAGE, SO EVEN THOUGH I CAN HEAR THE MOTOR WORKING AND IT IS MOST LIKELY A BROKEN PIECE OF PLASTIC, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT JEEPS USE FOR REGULATORS, THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM IM GOING TO HAVE TO PAY 300 DOLLARS TO BUY EVERYTHING. IF CHRYSLER WOULD USE A METAL BRACKET AS A REGULATOR INSTEAD OF A CHEAP PIECE OF PLASTIC THERE WOULD NOT BE SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH JEEP LIBERTY'S WINDOW REGULATORS BREAKING. AND SINCE THEY DON'T SELL REGULATORS BY THEMSELVES IT IS ALMOST LIKE CHRYSLER IS DOING IT JUST TO MAKE MORE MONEY AND THAT THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS AT ALL. IT IS A LITTLE BIT RIDICULOUS THAT THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED THESE SHOTTY QUALITY REGULATORS OR EVEN ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM AT ALL. *TR

2006 JEEP LIBERTY. I HAVE HAD THE WINDOW REGULATOR GO OUT IN MY CAR CURRENTLY 5 DIFFERENT TIMES. I AM ALSO CERTAIN THAT MY DRIVER WINDOW IS ABOUT TO GO OUT AGAIN AS I HAVE TO HELP LEAD IT WHEN I PUSH THE UP BOTTOM. I TRY TO USE IT AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. WHEN THE REGULATORS WHEN OUT THE FIRST THREE TIMES MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY SO I TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIR. NOW THAT THEY HAVE BROKEN TWO MORE TIMES, WITHIN TWO WEEKS, I FEEL THAT THIS IS A REAL ISSUE. WHAT CONCERNS ME IS THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN WHO ARE IN THE BACK SEAT WHEN THESE BREAK AND THE GLASS FALLS INTO THE DOOR, WHAT IF IT WAS TO BREAK, WHAT IF IT WAS STORMING OUTSIDE. IT CONCERNS ME THAT ONE OF THEM COULD BE INJURED. I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT WHEN I WENT ONLINE TO DO SOME RESEARCH THERE ARE MANY POST REGARDING THIS SAME ISSUE, ALSO A PETITION PUT FORWARD WITH 114 SIGNATURES ASKING FOR A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE, YET CHRYSLER JEEP HAS YET TO DO ONE. I THINK WE NEED HELP TO GET THIS ITEM RECALLED, HAVE A BETTER PRODUCT INSTALLED IN OUR CARS, AND PROVIDE A SAFE FORM OF TRANSPORTATION FOR OUR FAMILIES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

I WENT OUT SUNDAY MORNING, TO GO TO CHURCH AND MY REAR WINDOW OF MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY HAD FALLEN DOWN INTO THE DOOR. THE DEALER SAID THEY HAD SERVICED THE PROBLEM ON OTHER JEEP LIBERTY'S AND IN 2006 THE MECHANISM HAD BEEN CHANGED. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WOULD DEPEND ON WHICH MECHANISM WAS IN MY VEHICLE. MY SON HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS 2003 JEEP LIBERTY RENEGADE. I WAS LOOKING AT SOME REVIEWS ONLINE AND RUDY ALSO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. SINCE THIS IS A PROBLEM THE COMPANY KNEW ABOUT AND DID NOT LET THE CONSUMER KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM, I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD BE COMPENSATED FOR THE COST OF THE REPAIR. THE COST WAS $376.66. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO KNOW IF I WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW? IF YES , THE MECHANISM SHOULD ALSO BE REPLACED AT THEIR COST. SINCERELY, _______ *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
LETTER FROM CONGRESSMAN BOUCHER ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT CONCERNING HIS PURCHASE OF A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. *NJ THE VEHICLE WAS SOLD BY THE CONSUMER TO ANOTHER CONSUMER WHO EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION AND SUBSEQUENTLY HAD AN ACCIDENT. THE CONSUMER STATED EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL SHE TRIED TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN AT THE BOTTOM OF A STEEP HILL. THE CONSUMER REALIZED THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SLOWING DOWN AND BARELY MADE THE TURN. EVEN AFTER THE CONSUMER REMOVED HER FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE WAS STILL ACCELERATING. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE TRIED SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES, BUT TO NO AVAIL. THE VEHICLE FINALLY STOPPED WHEN THE CONSUMER HIT A STOP SIGN AND THEN PROCEEDED TO FLIP OVER ON THE RIGHT SIDE. THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV LOUDLY AND ONLY STOPPED AFTER THE CONSUMER TURNED THE IGNITION OFF. *JB

EQUIPMENT
2006 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED 4X4, ALL 4 OF THE WINDOWS HAVE HAD REGULATOR FAILURE CAUSING THE WINDOWS TO FALL DOWN INTO THE DOOR. THESE HAVE ALL OCCURRED AT DIFFERENT TIMES AND EVEN WITHOUT ANYONE BEING IN THE VEHICLE. ONE OF THE RECENTLY REPLACED REGULATORS THAT HAD ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED ONCE HAVE FAILED AGAIN WHILE MY WIFE WAS AT WORK. SHE CAME OUT TO LEAVE WORK IN THE DARK AND AS SHE WENT TO DRIVE OFF SHE NOTICED A WINDOW IN THE REAR WAS DOWN. SHE DID NOT PUT IT DOWN IT FAILED AND FELL ON ITS OWN WHILE INSIDE OF HER PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT AGAIN. THIS IS A HAZARD THAT WOULD HAVE ALLOWED SOMEONE TO ENTER HER VEHICLE AND EITHER STEAL FROM THE VEHICLE OR ATTACK HER. SO ALL 4 POWER WINDOWS HAVE FAILED AND NOW THEY ARE STARTING TO FAIL AGAIN. WARRANTY WILL EXPIRE THIS OCTOBER AND WE FEAR WE WILL BE LEFT WITH CONSTANT REPAIRS AND SHE CONSTANTLY WORRIES ABOUT HER SAFETY KNOWING IT WILL MOST LIKELY HAPPEN AGAIN. REAR GATE ALSO HAD A LOUD RATTLING NOISE COMING FROM IT AND AFTER IT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED BY DEALER UNDER WARRANTY WIFE COULD NOT GET THE GATE OPEN TO LOAD GROCERIES. UPON INSPECTION BY ME I FOUND THAT THE CHRYSLER JEEP DEALERSHIP JUST WRAPPED THE GATE LATCH STRIKER WITH ELECTRICAL TAPE INSTEAD OF REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE LATCH CAUSING THE DOOR LATCH TO BIND AND NOT OPEN. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO EITHER BE RECALLED OR ENFORCE A MANDATORY TSB ON A WORKING REVISION OF NEW PARTS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK PRESSURE BUILDS IN THE TANK AND FORCES THE GAS BACK OUT UNDER PRESSURE CREATING A SPRAY THE COVERS THE PERSON FILLING THE TANK, AND SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS CAUSED BY A BROKEN / CLOGGED FUEL TANK VENT. THIS OCCURS EVERYTIME YOU FILL THE TANK. TRYING TO FILL THE TANK AT A LOW FILL RATE DOESN'T IMPROVE THE SITUATION. *TR
