SUSPENSION
ON 5/15/2020 MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING OUR JEEP LOCALLY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE DRIVERS SIDE SUSPENSION GAVE OUT AND LANDED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE TIRE. THE TIRE TURNED INWARD HE HAD NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING. HE WAS ONLY DOING MAYBE 30MPH IF HE HAD BEEN GOING ANY FASTER HE COULD'VE BEEN KILLED. IT COSTS US $700 TO REPAIR BOTH SIDES AND IS STILL AT THE GARAGE BEING WORKED ON. MY HUSBAND WAS ON A 1 WAY 4 LANE BRIDGE HE MANAGED TO GET IT HALFWAY OUT OF THE LANE BLOCKING TRAFFIC THE POLICE CAME TO DIVERT TRAFFIC UNTIL THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. *TR

WHEN I AM DRIVING MY JEEP THE PARKING BREAK WILL RANDOMLY COME ON WHEN I AM DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR STREET. THE HEAT SHAFT UNDER MY JEEP COMPLETELY FELL OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING 30 MILES PER HOUR ON A CITY STREET. THE ELECTRIC WINDOWS, LOCKS AND AUTO START FREQUENTLY GLITCH OUT WHERE THEY JUST DO NOT WORK AT ALL. THE CRUISE CONTROL WORKS ONLY ABOUT HALF OF THE TIME AND WILL NOT TURN ON AT ALL THE OTHER HALF OF THE TIME. *TR

ROLLOVER PROTECTION VALVE IN THE FUEL TANK HAS FAILED AND GAS POURS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL. AFTER THE PUMP SHUTS OFF, FUEL POURS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND ONTO THE PERSON FUELING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT IS BEING REPAIRED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS BUT NOT THE 2010 MODEL YEAR, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME ISSUE.

SUSPENSION, STEERING, POWER TRAIN
I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE, WHEN I ACQUIRED IT, I HAD IT SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY PREFORMED ALL RECALL WORK. IT HAS BEEN KEPT SERVICED AND UP TO DATE ON ANY RECALL WORK SINCE. DURING THE DAY ON CHRISTMAS EVE 2019 I WAS RETURNING HOME FROM A VISIT AT MY MOTHER'S HOME AND SUDDENLY LOST CONTROL OF THE JEEP. THERE WAS LOUD NOISE AND THINGS BREAKING OFF THE VEHICLE AS I FOUGHT TO CONTROL IT AND PULL OVER. UPON INSPECTION, SAW THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WHEEL HAD COME LOOSE FROM THE SUSPENSION, TORE OFF THE FENDER WHEEL WELL AND BROKE A PIECE OFF THE RIGHT-SIDE RUNNING BOARD. UNDRIVEABLE, I HAD IT TOWED TO MY MECHANIC. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY WERE CLOSED UNTIL AFTER NEW YEARS. IN EARLY JANUARY I FOUND OUT THE DIAGNOSIS WAS A SHEARED LOWER BALL JOINT FAILURE. I LOOKED IN MY FILES AND FOUND THAT THIS WAS ONE OF THE RECALLS THAT HAD BEEN PREFORMED TO THE VEHICLE. SAFETY RECALL F23- LOWER BALL JOINTS WAS DONE ON 8/1/2006. OBVIOUSLY, YOU ASSUME THIS PROBLEM IS RESOLVED AND THE VEHICLE IS SAFE AFTER THE WORK IS DONE. I LUCKILY WAS TRAVELING AT 30MPH, AND NOT AT HIGHWAY SPEED, SO I HAVE ONLY ENCOUNTERED A FINANCIAL BURDEN. (ABOUT $4K FOR RENTAL, REPAIR & BODYWORK) I AM SURE IF I WAS GOING FASTER OR IN TRAFFIC, I WOULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. HOW DO THE THOUSANDS OF JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS STILL ON THE ROAD WHO ARE UP TO DATE ON RECALLS CONFIDENTLY DRIVE THEIR VEHICLES IF THE RECALL WORK FAILS IN THE EXACT MANNER DESCRIBED AS THE PROBLEM MEANT TO BE FIXED BY THE RECALL? I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR CLOSE TO 40 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD ANY VEHICLE SUFFER A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE RESULTING IN A CRASH BEFORE THIS.

AIR BAGS
THE AIR BAG DASH LIGHT HAS RECENTLY COME ON, AFTER THE MECHANIC TRIED UNSUCCESSFULLY TO RESET IT THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE POPS UP. WHEN THE COMPUTER IS CONNECTED IT SHOWS THE ONLY AIRBAG AFFECTED IS THE ONE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN A CRASH, MUCH LESS ANYTHING TO CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY SO IT IS THE ORIGINAL. IT STAYS ON CONSISTENTLY ANYTIME THE KEY IS IN THE ON/STARTED POSITION
