POWER TRAIN
2012 JEEP LIBERTY, 55,000 MILES. I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I HIT THE GAS TO MOVE FORWARD AND THE TRUCK WENT NOWHERE FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS, WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY ENGAGED. THE TRUCK JERKED AND I FINALLY WENT FORWARD. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN CHECKED WITH AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP AS IT IS STILL UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. VERY DISAPPOINTING, AS I LOVE THIS TRUCK. I GUESS I WILL BE HESITANT TO BUY ANOTHER JEEP.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS DRIVING IN TOWN 30 MILES PER HOUR, AND THE LIFT GATE LIGHT CAME ON. I OPENED AND SHUT THE GATE AND THE INDICATOR LIGHT WENT OFF. I STARTED TO DRIVE AGAIN AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGIN WHICH CAUSES THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TO COME ON AND SHINE RIGHT IN MY EYES. I AM GOING TO GET IT FIXED, THEY SAID THERE IS CORROSION IN THE SWITCH AND IT CAUSES THE PROBLEM. THE OTHER THING IS WHEN IT GETS COLD OUT, I CAN'T LOCK THE DOORS. IF I DO IN 5 TO 15 MINUTES THE LIGHTS START FLASHING AND THE HORN STARTS HONKING, UNTIL I UNLOCK THE DOORS. THIS HAPPENED LAST YEAR WHEN IT GOT COLD ALSO. WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, IT WAS NOT DOING THIS, SO THEY SAID JUST SEE WHAT HAPPENS. NOW IT IS COLD AND IT IS ACTING UP AGAIN. I WORK AT A PRISON AND NEED TO LOCK MY VEHICLE. I CAN'T DRIVE IT TO WORK AT ALL RIGHT NOW.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN OCTOBER 2015, WITH ONLY 27,680 MILES ON IT AND I'M ALREADY EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH IT. LAST WEEK THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON OUT OF NO WHERE. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR YESTERDAY TO GET THE RECALL FIXED, THE TECH. TOLD ME THAT THE LIGHT STAYED ON AND THAT IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH A RECALL SO IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED. HE ALSO SAID THAT THIS WAS A MODULE (NOT SURE WHAT THAT IS) BUT IF I WANTED TO FIX IT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A DEDUCTIBLE BECAUSE IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. MY SECOND ISSUE IS THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW CONTROL BUTTONS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY, I LITERALLY HAVE TO PULL REALLY HARD TO GET THE WINDOW UP. NOW I KNOW THAT FROM READING OTHER COMPLAINTS, THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IN THIS CAR, I JUST DON'T WANT TO EXPERIENCE A FIRE IN THE PANEL OR ANY OTHER MALFUNCTION. IS THERE SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE, I FEEL THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR MANUFACTURE ISSUE THAT ARE NOT WEAR AND TEAR.

EVERY TIME I START TO FILL MY TANK IT OVERFLOWS. I LOSE APPROX. 1/2 GALLON ON THE GROUND EVERY TIME I PUT FUEL IN. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! I JUST BOUGHT THIS JEEP A FEW WEEKS AGO. THE PREVIOUS OWNER/ DEALERSHIP DID NOT MAKE US AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
AFTER AN INSPECTION IT WAS FOUND THAT MY UPPER CONTROL ARMS & BALL JOINTS ARE NO GOOD FROM MOSTLY CORROSION .I HAVE 73000 MILES ON THIS TRUCK. DOING RE SEARCH I FIND A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THE RECALL STATES THAT THIS PROBLEM IS REGISTRATION SPECIFIC TO SALT BELT USAGE. AGAIN I QUALIFY FOR THAT PART AS WELL.THE RECALL IS J 17 AND IN CALLING JEEP THERE TELLING ME ABOUT THE VIN BUT NOT ABOUT THE SALT BELT STATE USEAGE .THE ARMS DO NOT CORRODE IN FLA BUT THEY DO IN NY . THE BALL JOINT AND ARM NEED REPLACEMENT THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURE DEFECT OF THE PART EXPOSED TO SALT. CALLING JEEP IS WORTHLESS CALLED NHSTA SAME RESULT
