STEERING, SUSPENSION
BUSHING AND BODY BUSHING ON FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, SQUEAK VERY LOUDLY ANYTIME THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, OR WHEN SOMEONE ENTERS OR EXITS THE VEHICLE, THE ADDED WEIGHT TO THE VEHICLE, CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SQUEAK FROM THE FRONT UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, EVERY BUMP OR RUFF SPOT IN THE ROAD, TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL EITHER DIRECTION, EVEN THE SLIGHTEST CAUSES VERY LOUD SQUEAKING, THE SQUEAKING IS PRESENT WITH SIMPLE ROCKING OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THE STEERING FEELS TIGHTER AND SIMPLE TURNS REQUIRE MORE BODY MUSCLE USE, WHEN THE VEHICLE IS BOTH IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. THE SQUEAKING/RUBBING IS PRESENT, AT ALL TIMES, WHEN EVEN THE SLIGHTEST AMOUNT OF MOVEMENT OR POSITION CHANGES FROM DRIVER/PASSENGERS INSIDE THE VEHICLE. FEELS LIKE THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE IS ABOUT TO FALL OUT, OR THAT THE FRICTION FROM THE RUBBING OR PIECES IN THE FRONT/ FRONT SUSPENSION, IS GOING TO CAUSE SOMETHING TO WEAR DOWN AND BREAK, WHICH COULD CAUSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE TO BE LOST, AND COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT, THAT COULD POTENTIALLY BE FATAL. WHEN I DO A GENERAL SEARCH FOR RECALLS ON MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE MAKE AND MODEL, IT SHOWS 2 REGARDING THE FRONT SUSPENSION, AND BALL JOINTS, HOWEVER WHEN I SEARCH RECALLS USING MY VEHICLES VIN NUMBER, IT SHOWS '0 UNREPAIRED RECALLS' BUT I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY RECALLS REPAIRED ON MY VEHICLE, AND THE RECALLS THAT SHOW ACTIVE, FIT THE ISSUES GOING ON WITH MY VEHICLE, AND I'M NOT SURE WHY MY 2005 JEEP LIBERTY RENEGADE, FITS INTO THE VEHICLES WITH THE RECALL CONCERNS PRESENT AND ACTIVE, BUT MY VEHICLE DOESN'T SHOW AND ONE THAT NEED TO BE REPAIRED BASED ON THE ACTIVE RECALLS. *TR

POWER TRAIN
ANOTHER ISSUE MY JEEP LIBERTY RENEGADE HAS, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO ALL THE WAY INTO PARK POSITION, AND ALLOW THE IGNITION TO BE TURNED COMPLETELY TO THE OFF POSITION SO THE KEY CAN BE REMOVED. I HAVE TO PUSH VERY HARD ON THE GEAR SHIFTER TO GET IT TO GO INTO PARK, IN ORDER TO REMOVE THE KEY. THIS COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE NOT TO BE COMPLETELY IN THE PARK POSITION, OR THE VEHICLE TO JUMP OUT OF PARK AND ROLL AWAY, WHICH COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, OR FATAL INJURY. WHEN I DO A SEARCH ON ACTIVE RECALLS FOR 2005 JEEP I BERRY RENEGADE, IT SHOWS ONE ACTIVE FOR THIS ISSUE, REGARDING TRANSMISSION, AND IMPROPER PARK ANCHOR INSTALLATION, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO NOT BE IN PARK AND/OR COME OUT OF PARK. HOWEVER, WHEN I SEARCH MY VEHICLE VIN IT DOESN'T SHOW THIS RECALL ACTIVE PER MY VIN NUMBER. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING, SUSPENSION
PURCHASED A 2005 JEEP LIBERTY IN THE STATE OF WISCONSIN, A STATE THAT HAS EXCESSIVE COLD AND ICY WEATHER, STREETS ARE HEAVILY SALTED. THE JEEP I PURCHASED HAS HAD SEVERAL RECALLS, MAJOR WAS THE REAR END CONTROL ARM, WHICH THE DEALERSHIP REPAIRED. 2005 JEEP LIBERTY ALSO HAS MAJOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE COOLING FAN TO SHORT OUT. HAVING IT TO BE FREQUENTLY REPLACED ONCE A YEAR. 2ND MAJOR PROBLEM IS THE FRONT RIGHT CONTROL ARM ASSEMBLY FRONT UPPER LEFT AND RIGHT. ALONG WITH WHEEL HUB ASSEMBLY, BOTH CORRODES AND CAN CAUSE THE STEERING TO BRAKE INTO, RESULTING IN A LOST OF STEERING CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING. THESE MAJOR MECHANICAL PROBLEMS NEEDS SHOULD BE RECALLED, SO THEY CAN BE REPLACED OR REPAIRED. I'VE TAKEN THE JEEP TO DIFFERENT REPAIRS SHOP AND WAS TOLD THE JEEPS ARE KNOWN FOR SAFETY ISSUES INCLUDING ELECTRICAL AND CONTROL ARM PROBLEMS AND TO CHECK FOR RECALLS. *TR

MY SKY SLIDER WHILE CLOSED, STARTED OPENING ON IT'S OWN GOING DOWN THE ROAD. AFTER STOPPING TO INSPECT, THE SKY SLIDER WILL NOT SEAL/CLOSE ALL THE WAY. AFTER TAKING IT TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THE SKY SLIDER NEEDS REPLACED BUT MOPAR DOES NOT PRODUCE THE PARTS ANY LONGER. NOW WHENEVER I NEED TO LEAVE, I HAVE TO BE SURE THE SKY SLIDER IS ALL THE WAY DOWN BEFORE DRIVING. EVEN THEN IT LIFTS AND OPENS ON ITS OWN. I CONTACTED JEEP AND THEY DO NOT HAVE A RECALL OR ANY AFFORDABLE SOLUTION TO THIS KNOWN DEFECT. *TR

THE SKY SLIDER ON MY JEEP IS BROKEN CAUSE LEAKING WHEN IT RAINS. CALLED MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS AND COMPANIES THAT SAY THEY DON'T HAVE ANY REPLACEMENT PARTS OR PIECES TO FIX THE ISSUE. THERE IS A SOCIAL MEDIA GROUP THAT SHOWS MANY OTHER JEEP LIBERTY'S THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND DUE TO THE TOP BEING BROKEN, TOPS HAVE FLOWN OFF WHILE ON HIGHWAY CAUSING DAMAGE TO VEHICLE-MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. I'M GOING TO CONTINUE TO CALL AROUND AND SEE IF I CAN FIND A RESOLUTION BUT I'M PRAYING MY TOP STAYS ON UNTIL THEN. IN THE PHOTOS, YOU CAN SEE WHERE I HAD TO CLAMP THE TOP SHIFT WHICH HAS SLOWED THE LEAKING FOR NOW. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
AFTER DRIVING SEVERAL MINUTES ON A CITY STREET, MULTIPLE DASH LIGHT COME ON, ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, ESP, AND BAS. THIS HAPPENS ONCE A WEEK. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO OCCUR ON DAYS ABOVE 75 DEGREES. FROM THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE. I BELIEVE ITS THE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR / CLOCK SENSOR. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AS IT WAS EASY TO FIND THE INFORMATION ON UTUBE.

I HAVE A JEEP LIBERTY 2011 W/ A SKY SLIDER ROOF- WHERE THE ENTIRE ROOF IS FABRIC AND SLIDES BACK. IT STOPPED WORKING & WOULDN'T SHUT ON TUESDAY AND THE ONLY PLACE THAT COULD PUT IT INTO A GARAGE AND LOOK AT IT BEFORE THE RAIN- WAS THE DEALERSHIP. I HEARD BACK FROM THEM TODAY- THEY NO LONGER MAKE THE PART THAT'S BROKEN. THEY WERE ABLE TO SHUT THE ROOF, BUT I CAN NEVER OPEN IT AGAIN B/C IT WON'T SHUT AND I'LL HAVE TO PAY THEM $243 AGAIN TO CLOSE IT. I'M READING ONLINE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ' AND EVEN WHEN THE ROOF IS SHUT IT- WIND CAN GET UNDER IT AND BLOW COMPLETELY OFF- POTENTIALLY CAUSING ACCIDENTS IF IT WERE TO RIP COMPLETELY OFF. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. I KNOW ITS COMMON FOR PLACES TO STOP MAKING PARTS AFTER 10 YEARS, BUT THERE SHOULD BE SOME RESOLUTION OFFERED TO SHUT YOUR ROOF WITH REASSURANCE IT WON'T RIP OFF AND HURT SOMEONE. I'M PRETTY MUCH SCARED TO DRIVE MY JEEP OVER 50 MPH NOW AND JEEP BASICALLY JUST THREW ME BACK OUT IN THE WORLD WITH NO WAY TO FIX IT BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO WAY TO FIX IT. THIS IS NO WAY FOR A COMPANY TO PERFORM . I WAS A LOYAL JEEP OWNER SINCE 1997! HERE ARE SOME PICS OF OTHER PEOPLES ROOFS FLYING OFF. *TR
