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.
Apr 12, 2020
SO THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN I HAVE CAME ACROSS, THIS IS OUTRAGED THE COMPANY HASN'T HAD ANY SORT OF RECALL ACROSS ALL PLATFORMS OF THIS GAS TANK. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS GAS TANK, OVERFLOW FORUMS, AND NUMEROUS YOUTUBE VIDEO OF "GAS BURP" IS THE NICKNAME, WHERE WHEN PUMPING GAS. THE CUSTOM LIKE MYSELF MAY BE INCLIND TO LIKE ANY CAR, ONCE THE GAS UNLEADED IS SELECTED, AND GAS CAP OUT, AND INSERTED INTO IT NORMAL SLOT. IT FILLS NORMALLY, AS THE GAS TANK FILLS NO SOUND IS HEARD, AND LASTLY ONCE THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF INSERTING THE GAS. IT SHOULD BE DONE, NOT WITH MY TANK MY TANK AT ANY GAS STATION, AT ANY LOCATION, ANY BRAND, OF CIRCLE K, BP, MOBILE, SHELL, QT? THEY ALL OVERFLOW MY CAR!. THIS SPILL ISN'T A LIGHT SPILL, THIS I'D A MAJOR QUARTER OF A GAS TANK STILL EVERY TIME. ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND THE GROUND AND JEEP AND DEALERSHIP RESPONSE, IS YOU HAVE TO PAY 3K TO REPLACE THE WHOLE GAS TANK. WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS FOR A SAFETY ISSUE OF DUMPING GAS ALL OVER THE GROUND. THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS ON 2007 MODELS, OF JEEPS AND DODGE DURANGO. BUT MY CAR IN SPECIFIC LIKE MANY OTHERS IN THE 2005-2012 RANGE ARE EXPERIENCING IS. A DODGE FLAW OF THE GAS TANK, IT IS THE PLUNGER SYSTEM TO PREVENT BACKFLOW. WELL THE RUBBER STOPPER ERODES TO ETHANOL WHICH IS IN GASOLINE. BUT I AM HERE TO ADD MY CONCERN IF THE ISSUE AT HAND. I WORK FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND TO HAVE CARS SPILLING FUEL OUT OF THE NORMAL CONSUMER USE ANY TIME OF THE YEAR, ANY TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE, AND STATIONS, AND ALSO ANY PUMP NOZZLE WILL DO THE REPEATED ISSUE. I HAVE EVIDENCE OF THIS BUT EVEN YOURSELF CAN GOOGLE GAS BURP CHRYSLER TYPE OF VEHICLES AND IT IS VERY COMMON ISSUE ACROSS FORUMS AND MORE. BEST PART IS, THE WEAR ON THE RUBBER RING IS PAST WARRANTY SO IT OUT OF POCKET CUSTOMERS WHO WIL MOST LIKELY JUST PREFER TO SPILL GAS INSTEAD OF COUGHING UP THE MONEY TO REPLACE A WHOLE GAS FUEL TANK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO FUEL THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED FUEL LEAKING OUT UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED BEFORE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT NOT FAILURES WERE FOUND. THE CONTACT FOUND A FAULTY CHECK VALVE AND PAID FOR THE REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL DID NOT INCLUDE HIS VEHICLE ONLY THE 2007-2008 MODELS. THE CONTACT THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE MECHANIC FOR THE SAME FAILURE A WEEK LATER AND WAS ADVISED THAT A NEW FUEL TANK WAS NEEDED. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF A DEALER WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 156,000.

EVERY TIME WHEN I FILL THE FUEL TANK, WHETHER I USE THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF OR NOT, FUEL BURPS/SPILLS FROM THE FUEL TANK INLET. OVER THE COURSE OF SIX YEARS, THERE HAS BEEN A LARGE WASTE OF FUEL AND MONEY. WITH THIS ISSUE, THE PAINT UNDER THE FUEL TANK INLET HAS BEGUN TO BUBBLE AND PEEL. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THIS VEHICLE ACTUALLY BELONGS TO MY WIFE, AND, WHENEVER SHE NEEDS FUEL, I AM THE ONE TO DEAL WITH THE ISSUE AS SHE IS AFRAID TO FILL IT. I HAVE TRIED MULTIPLE TECHNIQUES TO NO AVAIL. THERE ALSO HAS BEEN MULTIPLE TIMES I HAVE RETURNED HOME REEKING OF UNLEADED FROM THE SPILLAGE ON MY SHOES AS WELL AS MY CLOTHING. MANY PAIRS OF SHOES HAVE BECOME UNWEARABLE BECAUSE OF THIS. I WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHALLENGE ANYONE TO FILL THIS TANK WITHOUT SPILLING, NOT JUST A FEW DROPS, BUT MANY, MANY, MANY DROPS EQUIVALENT TO CUPS. ALL WE AFFECTED JEEP OWNERS WANT IS ACCEPTANCE OF RESPONSIBILITY AND A SIMPLE REPAIR. THE PART SHOULD BE EXTREMELY CHEAP, AND I'M SURE MOST OWNERS WOULD INSTALL THE PART THEMSELVES. LET'S STOP THIS COMPLAINING OF THE ISSUE AND JUST RESOLVE IT!!!
Oct 02, 2017
IT WILL BURP GAS BACK OF THE FILLER NOZZLE. TRIED DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. TRIED DIFFERENT TYPES OF PUMPS. ON AUTOMATIC FILL-UP IT WILL CUT OFF, THEN A BIG BURP OF GAS SPEWS OUT OF THE FILLER NOZZLE. HAPPENS MOSTLY IN THE COOL WEATHER, RANDOMLY IN HIGH TEMPS (80F+). DEALER INSPECTED SAID THEY COULD FIND NO PROBLEM... TOLD ME THE ONLY OPTION WOULD BE A FUEL TANK REPLACEMENT FOR AROUND 1500 DOLLARS. IT IS THE SAME SYMPTOM THE RECALL/WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR 2008 JEEP LIBERTY'S COVERED IN THE X46 LIFETIME WARRANTY EXTENSION; HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT COVER ANY OTHER MODEL YEARS AND THIS IS HAPPENING IN OTHER MODEL YEARS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME LOOKING INTO THIS MATTER.

I have replaced the TIPM in March of last year. It has gone out on me February 2024. I didn’t expect it to go out before 12 months. Help
Feb 19, 2025
Valve stem failure. Low tire pressure light came on, and tire immediately went flat while driving at 55-60 mph. After tire was changed, went to tire shop where they said valve stem was either blown out or sucked in, and 2 more were ready to fail, so replaced all 4. I didn’t quite understand all, but seemed to have something to do with the tire pressure sensor, or parts of it being worn.
Jun 26, 2021
THE ROOF IS LEAKING ALL AROUND WHEN IT RAINS OR SNOWS. I HAVE REPORTED THIS SEVERAL TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP. WATER ACTUALLY DRIPS INSIDE THE VEHICLE, ONTO THE SHIFTING AREA, SEATS, AND THE CENTER OF THE DASHBOARD WHERE THE RADIO IS LOCATED. THE WATER ALSO DRIPS FROM THE FRONT LIGHT CEILING FIXTURE, WHICH MAY BE CREATING AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THE WATER IS COMING IN FROM WHERE THE ROOF RACK TRACKS BEGIN AND END, AND RUNS DOWN TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE SERIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY. THE RUBBER STRIPPING THAT IS HOLDING THE ROOF RACK TRACKS ONTO THE VEHICLE ARE EITHER CORRODING, OR THE REINFORCEMENT AGENT/S ARE NOT WORKING.
Feb 24, 2021
MY DOOR LOCKS ONLY WORK OCCASIONALLY. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN DRIVING THROUGH A BAD NEIGHBORHOOD AND A SECURITY CONCERN WHEN THE BACK HATCH WON'T LOCK. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN AND DOCUMENTED PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE.
Feb 26, 2020
THE SKY SLIDER HAS A MAJOR LEAKING ISSUE AND VERY HIGH WIND SOUNDS WHEN DRIVING. THE SLIDER DOES NOT CURRENTLY OPERATE AND BETWEEN THIS YEAR AND LAST YEAR I'VE GOTTEN 3 DETAILS JUST TO CLEAN THE WATER DAMAGE AND IT JUST KEEPS HAPPENING. WHEN LOOKING UP REVIEWS SO MANY PEOPLE ARE/HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SLIDER. THIS IS NOT FAIR TO CUSTOMERS.

WHILE DRIVING AFTER ABOUT 5 - 10 MINUTES, THE BATTERY LIGHT ON THE DASH LIT UP AND MADE A DINGING NOISE. I PARKED CAME BACK OUT TO LEAVE 3 HOURS LATER, AND THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. THERE WAS NO CLICKING, NO NOISED WHEN TURNING THE KEY TO START THE CAR. WE TRIED JUMPING THE CAR WITH 2 DIFFERENT JUMP BOXES AND 1 SET OF CABLES. NONE OF THOSE WORKED. I THEN HAD THE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR, CHANGED IT, AND I PICKED THE CAR UP FROM THE SERVICE CENTER, AGAIN 5 MINUTES INTO DRIVING THE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY CAR DIED WHILE DRIVING MAYBE 10 MINUTES LATER ON THE THE THRUWAY. AGAIN, NOT ABLE TO JUMP THE BATTERY SO IT WAS TOWED BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER. THEY THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A FAULTY ALTERNATOR, AND CHANGED IT OUT. THE BATTERY LIGHT STILL CAME ON, AND DISCOVERED IT WAS THE POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE (TIPM) THAT WAS FAILING, AND BURNING THROUGH THE ALTERNATORS.
Mar 06, 2019
WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF. MID DRIVE, WHICH WAS VERY UNSAFE. IT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ROUNDING A CURVE. ATTEMPTED TO JUMP THE CAR WITH NO SUCCESS. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A LOCAL GARAGE. THEY STATE IT AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT IT WILL BE PRETTY COSTLY. EXPLAINED IT TO ME AS THE MOTHERBOARD BASICALLY FOR THE CAR. AFTER READING UP SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. I WOULD THINK JEEP WOULD FIX THIS COMMON AND COSTLY ISSUE. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP.
Jun 15, 2018
"GATE" LIGHT COMES ON DASH AND LIGHTS INSIDE VEHICLE STAY ON, DRAINING BATTERY AND IF YOU LOCK YOUR VEHICLE THE ALARM WILL GO OFF. IT IS ALL CAUSED BY WATER GETTING INTO THE BACK WINDOW WHICH HAS BAD SEALS AND CAUSES SWITCH TO GO BAD. REPLACED YEAR AGO AND NOW HAVE TO REPLACE AGAIN. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE MANY JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS COMPLAIN. FIX THE PROBLEM OR I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP.

Airbag light goes on and off. Is not throwing a code on advanced scan tool. Also at times does not recognize the key has been removed from the ignition, and that appears to be a fault with the ignition key pin in the housing which Chrysler wants $1,000 or more to replace the ends tire steering column. What the hell do y'all guys even do because these problems exist all over the internet. Do y'all get kickbacks or make deals with the car companies because it seems not have to do anything with the safety of the equipment that is being sold.

AIRBAG LIGHT SUDDENLY CAME ON WHEN TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. MECHANIC SAYS CLOCKSPRING IS BROKEN AND AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES (CRITICAL ERROR - CYLINDER MISFIRE) AND MY CAR VIBRATES/SHAKES WHENEVER I ACCELERATE OR GO UP ANY INCLINE ON A HIGHWAY. I WENT TO SEE A CERTIFIED MECHANIC TODAY (IN MICHIGAN) AND THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE 3.7L ENGINE HAS A DESIGN FLAW THAT ALLOWS A LARGE AMOUNT OF CARBON BUILDUP IN THE CYLINDERS, WHICH LEADS TO MISFIRE ISSUES. IT WILL COST OVER $2,000 TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE (12 HOURS WORTH OF WORK - THEY HAVE TO TAKE APART THE CYLINDERS AND WHOLE IGNITION/INTAKE SYSTEM, CLEAN THE PARTS, AND REPLACE GASKETS). THE MECHANIC SAYS THAT MY CAR IS NO LONGER SAFE FOR HIGHWAY DRIVING AND CAN BREAK DOWN AT ANY TIME. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 104,000 MILES. JEEP SHOULD NOT GET AWAY WITH SUCH A HORRIBLE DESIGN FLAW THAT WILL CAUSE MY CAR TO BREAK DOWN.
Mar 12, 2021
WHEN WE DRIVE TO GREATCLIP HAIR CUT STORE FROM DOLLARS STORE THRU FREEWAY, JEEP DIDN'T WARNING ANYTHING THAT WILLING TO BREAK DOWN, I STARTED SMELLED LITTLE OIL BURN AND WE PARKED JEEP BY GREATCLIP TO DROP WIFE THERE AND I TURNED ENGINE TO GOING AND IT'S SMELL STRONGER BURNS . I CHECKED IT OUT THAT VALVE COVER GOT CRACKED AND LITTLE HOLE. I ASKED WIFE TO START UP AND I SAW A LOT OF OIL COME OUT OF VALVE COVER HOLE . WE CALLED TOW TO COME PICK UP TO AVOID GET ENGINE SEIZURES AND I THOUGHT IT'S VALVE COVER THEN I WENT TO AUTOZONE TO BUY VALVE COVER AND GASKET AND WENT HOME TO WORK ON JEEP. I REMOVED VALVE COVER AND FOUND A ROCKER BROKE THE METAL OF ENGINE HEAD IN PASSAGES SIDE. I HEARD A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WORK AT DEALERSHIP SHOP AND OTHER SHOP SAID ALL 3.7 LITER V6 ISN'T GOOD ENGINE FOR JEEP BECAUSE IT'S KEEP BLEW OR PROBLEMS. IT'S ONLY 170,000 MILES ON ENGINE. WE JUST BOUGHT 2 MONTHS AGO IT'S WAS GOOD ENGINE AND RUN WONDERFUL THEN IT'S BROKE DOWN FOR NO REASON. I HAD OLDER JEEP HAS NEVER PROBLEMS WITH ME UNTIL THIS ONE CAUSED ME PROBLEMS.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

ABOUT A QUART OF GAS WILL "BURP" OUT DIRECTLY AFTER THE PUMP HAS KICKED OFF, SPILLING OVER THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ONTO THE PERSON PUMPING GAS. THE ODD THING IS THAT IT ACTUALLY SHOOTS OUT UNDER SOME PRESSURE. THE PROBLEM IS NOT CAUSED BY OVER-FILLING. AT THE DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK. THE SPILLAGE IS A MAJOR ISSUE BY ITSELF, BUT I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY ISSUES IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS. WILL THIS PROBLEM CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD DURING AN ACCIDENT? IF I REPLACE THE GAS TANK NOW, WILL I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AFTER THE NEXT 45,000 MILES. REPLACING THE TANK IS EXTREME AS A REGULAR MAINTENANCE ITEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING, FUEL SPEWED FROM THE FILLER NECK, SPILLING ON THE CONTACT'S CLOTHING AND THE GROUND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHO PERFORMED AN INSPECTION AND LOCATED THE FAILURE AT THE FUEL FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 39,000. UPDATED 05/05/2014*LJ UPDATED 05/09/2014 *JS

AFTER GASSING UP REMOVED HOSE AND FUEL SHOT OUT OF FILLER PIPE,OVER THE SIDE OF VEHICLE AND UNTO THE GROUND. AT NEXT FUEL STOP SAME THING HAPPENED,DIFFERENT SERVICE STATION. DEALER STATES IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I CONTACTED JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID THERE ARE NO KNOWN ISSUES WITH MY YEAR AND MAKE OF VEHICLE. FIX INVOLVES VALVE ON FUEL TANK WITH NEW TANK. *TR
Mar 21, 2014
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN EARLY 2013 FOR MY DAUGHTER. EVER SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED WE HAVE NOTED THE FOLLOWING: WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK WITH THE GAS NOZZLE SET TO AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AS SOON AS THE TANK IS FULL THERE IS ALWAYS A FAIRLY LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS THAT SPLASHES BACK AND OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS OCCURS JUST AS THE TANK IS COMPLETELY FILL UP AND THE NOZZLE SHUTS OFF. IT IS ENOUGH GAS THAT IT CAN BE SEEN ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND. THIS OBVIOUSLY PRESENTS A POTENTIAL HAZARD FOR FIRE AND IS VERY UNSETTLING. I HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE IN MANY JEEP MODELS (INCLUDING THE 2010 LIBERTY'S, BUT ALSO OTHER JEEP MODELS) DATING BACK TO AT LEAST THE MID-2000'S AND THAT THERE IS A RECALL AND COVERAGE FOR THIS TO BE REPAIRED (USUALLY INVOLVING A NEW GAS TANK) FOR MANY JEEP MODELS, BUT MY PARTICULAR MODEL IS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALL PER CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE. *TR
Feb 12, 2014
EVERY TIME GAS IS PUT INTO THE TANK , THE GAS WILL BE FORCIBLY BLOWN BACK OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND BACK ONTO THE PERSON HOLDING THE GAS NOZZLE!! DOZENS OF CASES ACROSS THE COUNTRY HAVE THE SAME OCCURRENCE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS HAZARD THAT THE PUBLIC AND CHRYSLER SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF. THANK YOU *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED OUTSIDE DURING HEAVY RAIN, THE SKY SLIDER STARTED TO LEAK WATER INSIDE THE CABIN.

THE FIRST TIME MY SKYSLIDER MALFUNCTIONED WAS WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE EXPRESSWAY AT 65MPH. INSTEAD OF OPENING STRAIGHT IT WENT SIDEWAYS AND WAS STRUGGLING AGAINST ITSELF- THIS HAD NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. I ENDED UP HAVING TO STOP ALONG THE SHOULDER BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING. ONCE I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET IT INTO THE CLOSED POSITION AGAIN IT WOULDN'T STAY CLOSED ON IT'S OWN WITHOUT WANTING TO FLIP UP AND CAUSE A LOT OF NOISE AND POTENTIALLY MORE DAMAGE. I HAD TO HOLD THE ROOF CLOSE THE REMAINING 20 MINUTES HOME. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THERE WERE NO PARTS TO FIX IT BUT THEY COULD PERMANENTLY CLOSE IT FOR ME. THEY COULDN'T GUARANTEE IT WOULD BE WATER TIGHT BUT THIS WAS THE BEST THEY COULD OFFER. I ACCEPTED THEN APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS LATER AS SOON AS I STARTED THE CAR I STARTED TO HEAR A LOUD NOISE THAT I COULDN'T PLACE BECAUSE IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS COMING FROM EVERYWHERE. MY 6 YEAR OLD POINTED OUT THAT THE ROOF WAS MOVING AND I IMMEDIATELY HIT THE CLOSE BUTTON AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE ROOF TO STOP STRAINING AGAINST THE "PERMANENT SEAL" BUT IT WAS TOO LATE AND A FEW PIECES RAINED DOWN ON ME. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME 40 MINUTES ON AN EXPRESSWAY WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 70 MPH WITH MY HAZARDS ON BECAUSE I COULDN'T GO OVER 60 MPH WITHOUT LOSING MY GRIP OF THE ROOF AND IT FLOPPING AROUND WILDLY- I HAVE A SHORT VIDEO OF THAT PARTICULAR DRIVE BUT CAN'T UPLOAD IT HERE. MY SON WAS TERRIFIED AND THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING IN OUR DRIVEWAY EVER SINCE BECAUSE IT'S BEEN RAINING HERE AND MY ROOF WON'T CLOSE. I CONTACTED CORPORATE JEEP AND ALL THEY COULD TELL ME WAS THAT THE ROOF ON MY JEEP WAS OUT OF WARRANTY IN 2013, 3 YEARS BEFORE I PURCHASED IT FROM AN AUTHORIZED JEEP DEALER, BALES AUTO MALL IN JEFFERSONVILLE, IN. I HAVEN'T EVEN OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 2 YEARS- I HAVE 4 YEARS OF PAYMENTS LEFT...

BRAKE FLUID LEAKING FROM CAR
Aug 10, 2017
BOTH TIMES I WAS SLOWING DOWN FOR A RED LIGHT AND ALMOST REAR ENDED ANOTHER CAR. I FELT THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE CAR SEEMED TO ACCELERATE AND OR THE GAS PEDAL STUCK. I CALLED JEEP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL/ISSUES AND I SAW WHERE MY YEAR/MODEL WAS REPORTED TO HAVE A RECALL FOR A BRAKE ISSUE. *TR
Dec 11, 2014
BRAKES WERE MAKING A NOISE THAT SUBSIDED WHEN BRAKES APPLIED. MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT REAR PADS ARE WORN TO INDICATORS AND PADS ARE FROZEN IN SLIDES. ROTORS ARE AT MINIMUM SPEC. NOW MY FRONT BRAKES HAVE NEVER BEEN REPLACED, THEY ARE ORIGINAL FACTORY INSTALLED. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE REAR BRAKES WEARING OUT BEFORE THE FRONT BRAKES. THIS HAPPENED IN APRIL IT IS NOW THE END OF JULY AND I STILL HAVE NOT NEEDED TO REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKES. THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE REAR BRAKES TO WEAR OUT THAT FAST. *TR
Jul 30, 2014
I HAVE TO KEEP REPLACING THE REAR BRAKE PADS EVERY 9000 MILES. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND OUT WHY AND SAID MANY DO IT. I CALLED THE MFG AND THEY WERE NO HELP EITHER. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE REAR PADS EVERY 9 TO 10000 MILES. I BOUGHT CROSS DRILLED ROTORS AND SUPER PADS THE LAST TIME AND I THINK THEY ARE WEARING OUT ALSO. I BEEN TOLD BY A SPEED SHOP THE BRAKES ARE TOO SMALL IN THE REAR FOR THE WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. THE ESP SYSTEM PUTS TOO MUCH PRESSURE TO THE REARS TO KEEP THE FRONT FROM NOSE DIVING. THATS WHY THEY STOPPED MAKING THEM. IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AS MY BRAKES COULD GO. NO ONE CAN HELP ME WHY THEY KEEP WEARING OUT. THE CALIPERS , PADS, ROTORS BEEN REPLACED BY ME AND YET AFTER 31000 MILES I REPLACED THE PADS 3 TIMES ALREADY AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHY OTHER THEN IT IS A FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THE 2010 JEEP LIBERTY... *TR

I HAVE A 2010 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT AND IT'S HEADLIGHTS CONTINUE TO GO OFF ON ME WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT'S ONLY NOTICEABLE AT NIGHT IN WHICH IS NOT SAFE. I'VE CHANGED BOTH LIGHT BULBS IN WHICH WORKED AND THEN WENT OUT WITHIN 20 MINS AGAI AT NIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY. THEN I CHANGED THE 30AMP/RELAY. THEN I CHANGED THE DIMMER SWITCH. ALL OF THIS DID NOT WORK. THEN THE DEALER CHANGED THE WINDSHIELD THAT IS LOCATED ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE AND IT WORKED FOR ABOUT A WEEK WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT GOING OUT BUT WORKING WHEN I SHIMMY THE CORD OF CONDUCTOR. BUT LIKE IT DID PREVIOUSLY IT'S NOW NOT JUST THE PASSENGER LIGHT AS BOTH LIGHTS ARE AGAIN NOT WORKING. AND THEY ARE STARTING TO FLICKER THEN JUST GOES OUT ALTOGETHER TO WHERE NOW THE SHIMMY IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE. NOW I'VE DONE ALL I CAN DO ON THE ELECTRICAL REALM BUT IT SEEMS AS THOUGH EVERYTHING I'VE ATTEMPTED IS JUST TEMPORARY OR DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP!
Apr 28, 2021
2010 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED 4X4 BEGAN TO INTERMITTENTLY START AND NOT HAVE HEADLIGHTS, SOMETIMES THE LIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON AT ALL, OTHER TIMES ONLY THE PARKING LIGHTS WOULD WORK, AND OTHER TIMES ONLY THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD WORK. IT WAS TAKEN TO BOTH A JEEP DEALER AS WELL AS A LOCAL GARAGE AND NO ONE COULD FIND AN ISSUE. THEY TRIED REPLACING THE SWITCH BUT THIS DID NOT HELP EITHER. EVENTUALLY, THE ISSUE GOT WORSE AND THE LIGHTS HAVE NOW SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT ON HIGHWAYS, LOCAL ROADS, ECT. AND HAS BECOME UNSAFE TO DRIVE. JEEP STILL CLAIMS TO NEVER HAVE SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS HOWEVER MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS EXISTS ONLINE FOR SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, A LOCAL GARAGE TOLD ME ABOUT THE TIPM ISSUES AND EVEN UPON SUGGESTING THE REPLACEMENT OF THIS PART, JEEP INSISTED THIS COULDN'T BE THE ISSUE. NOW THE LIGHTS ARE REALLY ACTING UP, SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING, FLASHING FREQUENTLY, ONLY PARKING LIGHTS WORK SOMETIMES, SOMETIMES ONLY ONE LIGHT WORKS, AND OTHER ISSUES ARE BEGINNING (STARTING RANDOMLY, HORN / ALARM RANDOMLY GOING OFF,ECT) JEEP STILL REFUSING THAT THIS IS THE ISSUE AND WANTS TO REPLACE / REPAIR OTHER THINGS FIRST. CURRENTLY LOOKING INTO REPLACEMENT TIPM PERSONALLY, AS AT THIS POINT, THE JEEP LIBERTY IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT.
Oct 15, 2015
I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT AND THE HEADLIGHTS JUST STOPPED WORKING. I WAS EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AS I HAD NO HEADLIGHTS AND CARS APPROACHING ME WERE FLASHING ME TO TURN OF MY HEADLIGHTS. I COULDNT PASS THE MA. SAFTEY INSPECTION BECAUSE OF THIS. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND HE HAS TO REPLACE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED CONTROL MODULE AT A COST OF $900.00. THIS IS ABSOLUTLY A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED!
Sep 29, 2015
I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE CONVENIENCE STORE IN MY TOWN WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS JUST STOPPED WORKING. THE ONLY LIGHTS I HAD WERE THE PARKING LIGHTS. CAR WERE FLASHING ME TO TELL ME TO TURN MY LIGHTS ON BUT THEY WOULD NOT COME ON. I HAVE FOUND OUT BY RESEARCHING ON LINE THAT THERE IS A DEFECT WITH THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. I CONTACTED JEEP CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY WOULD NOT OFFER ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER JEEP SHOULD RECALL. THE TOTAL COST TO REPAIR THIS IS $900.00
Jun 09, 2015
AS I WAS LEAVING WORK, I STARTED UP MY JEEP AND THE FLASHERS STARTED FLASHING BY THEMSELVES. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES OF TURNING THE JEEP ON AND OFF, TURNING THE HAZARD SWITCH ON AND OFF, IT FINALLY STOPPED. A FEW WEEKS LATER, FOR THE 5TH TIME, MY JEEP REFUSED TO START AFTER A STOP AT THE LOCAL PHARMACY. THE HORN HAS NOT WORKED FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW, AND RIGHT BEFORE IT DIED, IT WOULD HONK RANDOMLY WHETHER THE JEEP WAS PARKED, KEY IN THE IGNITION OR NOT. IT HAS ALSO STALLED A FEW TIMES ON THE FREEWAY. DEALER HAS RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT OF THE TIPM AND SAYS THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE. *TR

THE NOIL FILTER IS IN A BAD PLACE THAT CAUSES OIL TO COLLECT IN ALL AREAS OF THE ENGINE AND SKID PLATES THAT CAUSE EXCESS DRIPS ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. SMOKE ON THE HOT ENGINE PARTS AND COULD CAUSE A FIRE EACH TIME THE OIL FILTER IS CHANGED. I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY REMIND THE DEALER TO COMPLETELY SPRAY AND DEGREASE THE UNDER AREAS AND SIDES OF THE ENGINE EACH TIME OR I HAVE TO RETURN NUMEROUS TIMES ABOUT OIL LEAKS.

DRIVING MY 2010 JEEP LIBERTY, STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT AND THE CAR SHUTTERED SLIGHTLY AND DIED. BRAND NEW 7 MONTH OLD CAR, BATTERY IS FINE, STARTED RIGHT BACK UP, JUST STALLED OUT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. NOT ON A INCLINE, CAR WAS FLAT, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, 68 DEGREES OUTSIDE, NOT HOT/OVERHEATING, NO GAUGE OR WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON BEFORE OR AFTER IT DIED. NO AC WAS IN USE. ONLY THING BEING USED WAS VENT AND THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER TO POWER MY SON'S DVD PLAYER IN THE BACK SEAT. NO STEREO WAS ON EITHER. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWED IN JEEP FORUMS THAT OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THEIR JEEPS STALLING OUT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. JEEP HAS GIVEN THEM NO EXPLANATION OR OFFER TO FIX. TAKING MINE IN ON MONDAY AM TO DEALER TO INQUIRE AS TO WHAT COULD HAVE POSSIBLE CAUSED THIS. DO NOT KNOW IF MINE IS PART OF THE TWO RECALLS THAT JEEP HAS OUT NOW FOR THE LIBERTY BUT WILL INQUIRE ABOUT THEM AS WELL, AND ASK IF THEY COULD BE THE CAUSE OF MINE STALLING OUT FOR NO REASON. *TR

I WAS DRIVING 50 MPH ON A PAVED HIGHWAY. THE AIR PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON. A FEW SECONDS LATER THERE WAS A RUMBLE NOISE. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED AT THE TIRES. ONE WAS COMPLETELY FLAT. I HAD THOUGHT I RAN OVER SOMETHING VERY LARGE CAUSING AN INSTANT FLAT. AFTER REMOVING THE TIRE, WE NOTED THAT THE TIRE WAS STILL GOOD. THE NUT HOLDING THE VALVE STEM/PRESSURE SENSOR IN HAD BROKEN. THE VALVE STEM/PRESSURE SENSOR COMPONENT WAS FOUND INSIDE THE TIRE. THE RESULT WAS A VERY LARGE GAP WHERE THE VALVE STEM WAS, ALLOWING THE TIRE TO INSTANTLY DEFLATE. WHEN CHECKING THE OTHER VALVE STEMS, ONE OF THE OTHER NUTS HOLDING THE VALVE STEMS IN WAS ALSO BROKEN. THE JEEP IS PARKED UNTIL WE CAN REMOVE ALL OF THE VALVE STEMS AND REPLACE THEM. WE WILL NOT DRIVE IT AS IT IS. WE WILL BE REPLACING THE VALVE STEM/PRESSURE SENSOR COMPONENT WITH THE OLD FASHION STYLE VALVE STEMS. I WOULD NOT CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE STOCK EQUIPMENT. I WOULD ALWAYS WORRY ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THE VALVE STEM BROKE ON A FRONT TIRE GOING EXPRESSWAY SPEED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. *TR

LOW PSI INDICATOR ON SPARE WAS ON SO I LOWERED THE SPARE TIRE TO PUT AIR IN IT AND I NOTICED THE VALVE STEM WAS BROKE OFF AT THE TOP. AFTER LOOKING ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER ON THEIR VALVE STEMS. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME ON ALL WHEELS NOT JUST THE SPARE. THE COST TO FIX IS AROUND $100 A TIRE!!! IN TILL CHRYSLER FIXES THEIR CHEAP VALVE STEM SENSOR SYSTEM I WILL PUT IN THE OLD FASHION RUBBER VALVE STEMS AND JUST PUT UP WITH THE DASH LIGHTS!!!! *TR

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.

2010 JEEP LIBERTY SPONTANEOUSLY CAUGHT ON FIRE AND EXPLODED ON FRIDAY APRIL 15, 2016. MY STEPDAD AND I WERE OUT AND WE STOPPED AND PICKED UP A PIZZA ON THE WAY HOME AND EVERYTHING WAS JUST FINE THE WHOLE DRIVE HOME, NO SMELL, NO DRIVING ISSUES, NO SMOKE, NO OVERHEATING DINGS, NO FUNKY SOUNDS. WE PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY TO PARK AND TURNED OFF THE CAR, MY STEPDAD GOT OUT FIRST, AND WHEN I OPENED MY DOOR I SAID 'OOH IT SMELLS LIKE FALL!' (I THOUGHT THE NEIGHBORS WERE HAVING A BONFIRE OR SOMETHING.) THEN I SAW IT AND TOLD HIM 'THE CAR IS SMOKING!' AND I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND GOT AWAY FROM IT. HE TRIED TO OPEN THE HOOD THINKING IT WAS A RADIATOR OR SOMETHING BUT IT WAS SO HOT IT BURNED HIS FINGERS AND THEN HE LIFTED IT A BIT WITH A SCREWDRIVER AS WE WENT TO GET THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND WE SAW THE FIRE START SHOOTING OUT OF THE SIDES. IT WAS SO HOT AND SO FAST. I SCREAMED AT HIM TO GET HIM AWAY FROM IT BECAUSE I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO EXPLODE, AND AS SOON AS HE WAS A BIT AWAY FROM IT, THE HOOD DID EXPLODE UP AND THEN IT STARTED REALLY SHOOTING FLAMES OUT AND AND THAT'S WHEN I CALLED 911. THERE WERE SEVERAL MORE EXPLOSIONS WHILE WE WAITED ON THE FIREFIGHTERS. IT WAS TOTALLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES IN 5 MINUTES. THERE IS NOTHING LEFT BUT A SHELL, AND IT WAS ONE LAYER FROM BURNING OUR HOUSE DOWN. IF WE WERE IN IT ANOTHER 60 SECONDS, WE'D HAVE TAKEN THAT FIRST EXPLOSION TO THE FACES. WE COULD HAVE DIED AND WE ALMOST LOST OUR HOUSE, OUR BARN AND ANOTHER CAR INSIDE THE BARN. I'M FURIOUS. OTHER PEOPLE COULD DIE.

2010 JEEP LIBERTY - WITH A MOON /SKY SLIDER. AFTER RAIN OR SNOW STORM ACCUMULATED WATER SOMEHOW IS TRAPPED AND LEAKS THRU THE INSIDE FROM THE DOME LIGHTS. SECOND MAJOR ISSUE IS THE HORRENDOUS WIND NOISE, ANY TIME THE VEHICLE OPERATES OVER A SPEED OF 45 PLUS MILES YOU CAN HEAR IT INSIDE. THEY SAY WHEN YOU DRIVE AN SUV DON'T TURN YOUR CORNERS TOO FAST, HA! WHEN YOU DRIVE A JEEP MADE WITH THIS MOONSLIDER IT DRAGS YOU LIKE YOU CAN FLIP ANY MINUTE ON THE HIGHWAY, THE DEALER IS ABSURD AND WANTS TO CHARGE YOU OVER $3000.00 TO FIX IT. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE I PURCHASED IT - JUST GOT ANOTHER QUOTE.

OVER 2 WEEKS AGO, I WAS COMING HOME WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD, AND AS WE CAME OFF THE HIGHWAY, THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, THEN A BUNCH OF OTHER RANDOM LIGHTS ON THE DASH POPPED ON AND BEEPED AT ME. I HEARD THE CAR DIE RIGHT AS I COASTED INTO A GAS STATION. TRIED TO JUMP WITH 3 DIFFERENT CABLES AND IT WOULDN'T JUMP. NEXT DAY, REPLACED THE BATTERY AND IT STARTED UP FINE. DROVE TO WORK (ABOUT 5 MILES) AND THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AS I CAME ACROSS A HILL. MORE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON AND IT DIED AGAIN. HAD A MECHANIC REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR, AND THEN WE HAD TO GET A 2ND NEW BATTERY BECAUSE I KILLED THE FIRST ONE. LATER THAT DAY I DROVE IT AROUND, AND AFTER ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES OF DRIVING, AS I WAS COMING UP A HILL, THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. TURNED AROUND AND CAME HOME. NEXT DAY I DROVE ABOUT 10 MINUTES ACROSS TOWN AND BACK AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN, BUT IT MADE IT. I THOUGHT MAYBE THE BATTERY WAS JUST TRYING TO GET CHARGED UP, SO I DROVE ON THE HIGHWAY FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND IT WAS FINE. WHEN I CAME OFF THE HIGHWAY, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON AND DINGING AT ME... AND THEN IT DIED AGAIN IN A PARKING LOT. WOULD JUMP AT FIRST BUT RPM METER WOULD JUMP UP AND DOWN AND THEN DIE. EVENTUALLY IT WOULDN'T JUMP AT ALL. REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AGAIN. JUMPED THE VEHICLE, LET IT SIT RUNNING FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. REVVED THE ENGINE AND IT DIED. WON'T START. WON'T EVEN CLICK. CALLED JEEP AND THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A BAD PCM. MECHANIC RENTED A SPECIAL TOOL TO TEST IT. THE PCM IS FINE, BUT THE TIPM MODULE IS BAD. NOW ALL MY OTHER WEIRD ISSUES ARE MAKING SENSE: RADIO DIALS SOMETIMES DON'T WORK, SOMETIMES IT STALLS IN THE COLD AT RANDOMLY. AND THE AIR FLAP ACTUATORS STOPPED WORKING, MEANING THAT NO AIR/HEAT BLOWS OUT THE TOP VENTS. AND THEN IT DYING ON ME RANDOMLY, WITH NO OTHER WARNINGS THAT THINGS WERE GOING WRONG.

THE SKY SLIDER ROOF IS MALFUNCTIONING AND GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. IT IS NOW LEAKING AND I FEAR IT MIGHT COME OFF EVENTUALLY. CHRYSLER JEEP NO LONGER OFFERS PARTS TO REPAIR AND NO ONE CAN FIX THE ISSUE. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT THE DEALER WOULD ALLOW THEIR PRODUCT TO GO UNSUPPORTED IN THIS MANNER.

1. SEAT BELT WILL NOT LATCH IN REAR DRIVER SEAT TO PROPERLY RESTRAIN CHILD. CHRYSLER WILL NOT COVER SO CHILD IS BEING LATCH WITH A REAR DRIVER SIDE SHOULDER BELT CONNECTED TO THE MIDDLE SEAT LATCH. 2. WHEEL SPEED SENSOR HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE, CAUSES ABS, ESC AND 4WD TO STOP WORKING. THIS HAPPENS TYPICALLY WHILE DRIVING EITHER RESIDENTIAL OR HIGHWAY ROADS, RANDOM TIMES, TEMPERATURES AND SPEEDS. 3. DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR HAS STOPPED WORKING FOR THE FORTH TIME WHICH PREVENTS CHILD SAFETY LOCK FROM WORKING. THE DOOR CANNOT LOCK/UNLOCK OTHER THAN MANUALLY COMPRESSING THE LOCK FROM THE INSIDE OF THE DOOR THEREFORE I HAVE TO CLIMB IN THE BACK SEAT TO UNLOCK THE DOOR OR RISK MY CHILD OPENING THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING. THE OTHER THREE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. 4. THE CLOCK LOSES A MINUTE TO TWO MINUTES A WEEK. 5. WHEN THE CAR IS IN OFF POSITION AND KEYS REMOVED FROM IGNITION, THE VEHICLE HAS ELECTRICAL SURGES THROUGH THE CONSOLE AFTER SITTING FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. THE BATTERY HAS NOT BEEN RUN DOWN, I'M NOT SURE WHERE THE POWER IS COMING FROM. 6. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LOSE POWER ON HIGHWAY AND STOPPED SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE, AT 80,000 TRANSMISSION WORK HAD TO BE PERFORMED TO PROPERLY RUN WITHOUT RISK.

TWICE NOW AFTER REVERSING MY CAR A LITTLE DISTANCE, THE CAR WOULD ONLY FORCEFULLY MOVE FORWARD AFTER PUTTING IT IN DRIVE, AND IT WOULD STOP IMMEDIATELY AFTER TAKING MY FOOT OFF OF THE GAS WITHOUT TOUCHING THE BRAKE. I TRIED TO PUSH THE BRAKE DOWN TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, BUT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STUCK UP. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TOWED TWICE TO A GARAGE, BUT THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND THE VEHICLE WILL MOVE AGAIN AFTER SITTING FOR HOURS.

AS I AM ACCELERATING FROM A STOP MY ENTIRE VEHICLE WILL COMPLETELY LOCK UP OUT OF NOWHERE AND WILL NO LONGER MOVE. I CAN STILL SHIFT ALL THE GEARS, HOWEVER MY JEEP WILL NOT BUDGE IN DRIVE OR REVERSE WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS LEFT ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF BOTH LANES OF TRAFFIC ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN, AS I HAVE HAD OTHER VEHICLES ALMOST CRASH INTO ME. THE ONLY WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT, IS LIKE HAVING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE COME ON WHILE YOUR DRIVING. THE VEHICLE LOCKS UP AND THE TIRES SKID UNTIL YOU COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. IT'S VERY SCARY!

WIPERS CAME ON, DOORS LOCKED, ENGINE CUT OFF, ALARM WENT OFF, WIPER FLUID STARTED SPRAYING AND SMOKE STARTED POURING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. FORTUNATELY SHE WAS ABLE TO UNLOCK THE DOORS AND GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. ELECTRICAL WIRING WAS STILL SMOKING 45 MINUTES AFTER THE POWER FINALLY DRAINED FROM THE BATTERY. TOW TRUCK REFUSED TO MOVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL A MECHANIC CAME TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. LOCAL SHOP SAID ALL THE ELECTRICAL CIRCUITRY WAS BURNED UP OR COMPROMISED, INCLUDING THE WIRING HARNESSES, GROUND WIRES, FUSED BOX, TIPM, ETC. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PRONOUNCED UNFIXABLE. INSURANCE COMPANY WILL NOT COVER SINCE FIRE DAMAGE WAS CONFINED TO ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AND JEEP CHRYSLER SENT AN INVESTIGATOR TO INSPECT THE DAMAGE AND COMPENSATION WAS DENIED.

2010 JEEP LIBERTY SKY SLIDER LEAKING +UNSAFE ROOF+ LEAKING WATER INTO VEHICLE WETTING FLOOR AND SATURATING CARPETS CAUSING SLIPPERY FEET ON GAS AND BREAK PEDDLES. WATER ERODING ELECTRICAL PANEL WHERE THE SKYSLIDER POWER BUTTON IS..... VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK. LEAKING SKYSLIDER FAILED REPAIRS AT ED VOYLES JEEP DEALERSHIP WITH OVER 75 SERVICE RECORDS OVER 4 REPLACED SKYSLIDER ATTEMPTS & HEADLINER REPLACED, I PAID FOR REPLACED CARPET DUE TO DETERIORATION AND SMELL. CHYRLSER LLC HAS HAD MANY CHANCES TO REMEDY PROBLEM @ 101,000 MILE REPAIR & MADE NO OFFER TO BUY BACK / TRADE BUT PROMISED TO FIX WITH EACH REPAIR. VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO ME WITH A SKYSLIDER FEATURE AND THIS SKYSLIDER FEATURE IS FLAWED DESIGN. I SENT DEALERSHIP THE VIDEO SHOWING HOW THE TOP "BURPS" WHEN DOORS ARE CLOSED, SO THE TOP HAS NO SECURE LATCHING FEATURES TO HOLD IT INPLACE AND WHEN THE ELECTRICAL SHORTS OUT DO TO THE EXPOSURE TO WATER & THERE IS A PROBABLE CAUSE FOR THE TOP TO RIP RIGHT OFF THE TRACTS WHILE IN MOTION. PLEASE SEND SOMEONE TO INVESTIGATE THE REPAIRS ORDERS OF ALL JEEP LIBERTY THAT HAVE SKYSLIDERS. I WISH THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN HONEST WITH ME AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THE MANUFACTURE REPRESENTIVE AND JUST SAY WE CANT FIX IT AND WE NEED TO REPLACE IT WITH A VEHICLE THAT REPRESENTS OUR JEEP QUALITY WITH SOMETHING TO THE SAME FEATURE LIKE THE SKYSLIDER FOR THE VERY REASON IT WAS PURCHASED! I HAVE A 4 INCH BINDER WITH ALL MY SERVICE RECORDS, PHOTOS, EMAILS, SERVICE REPORTS AND HAPPY TO MAIL YOU A COPY. DEALERSHIP HAS DONE AN OUTSTANDING JOB..... BUT REALLY SHOULD HAVE STEPPED UP TO PROTECT THE CONSUMER WHEN INSTEAD THEY THREW IN THE TOWEL AND SAID THERE IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO TO FIX THE LEAKING SKYSLIDER. PLEASE DO A RECALL INVESTIGATION OF THE SKYSLIDER LEAKING. VALUE OF REPAIR EXCEEDS VALUE OF PURCHASE... THAT CLASSIFIES A TOTAL LOSS BY LAW >>

TAKATA RECALL - MY VEHICLE IS 8 YEARS OLD. A LOT OF PROBLEMS HAVE STARTED TO HAPPEN TWO YEARS AGO WHICH I HAVE PAID OUT OF MY POCKET CONSIDERING IT AS AGE MAINTENANCE. TWO YEARS AGO I WAS NOT GOING TO PAY DEALER $800 COST TO FIX MY FRONT DOOR LOCKS THAT DON'T GO UP OR DOWN. I JUST DO IT THE OLD FASHION WAY. RECENTLY MY PASSENGER FRONT DOOR HAS ADDED THE PROBLEM OF THE WINDOW BUTTON NOT WORKING, WHICH IS A POSSIBLE LIFE SAFETY OF A PERSON WHO COULD BE FORCED TO ESCAPE THAT WAY. TAKATA RECALL - NOW!!! STARTING IN MID APRIL 2018 MY DASHBOARD DINGED SHOWING PICTURE OF WHAT LOOKS LIKE DRIVER AIRBAG CIRCLE AND DRIVER IN A SEATBELT. IT WENT AWAY A MINUTE LATER. IT THEN STARTED HAPPENING SPARATICALLY TWICE A WEEK MAYBE. IN MAY 2018, IT BECAME EVERY DRIVE OFF AND ON THE AIRBAG ICON SHOWED UP AND WOULD DING ABOUT FIVE TIMES DURING THE DAY DRIVE STAYING LIT AT 2 MINUTES MOST APPROXIMATELY. NOW JUNE 2018, IT HAS BECOME AN AUTOMATIC OF LIGHT DINGS ON AND THEN OFF SEVERAL TIMES DURING A DRIVE THAT COULD RANGE FROM 5MINUTES TO 20 MINUTES. I STARTED TO OBSERVE THAT IT HAPPENS WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL ONLY SLIGHTLY RIGHT, BUT NOW THE LAST WEEK IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED SLIGHTLY LEFT OR RIGHT. I AM NOW TRULY IN FEAR OF MY BAG EXPLODING WHILE I DRIVE AND/OR IT WILL NOT GO OFF TO HELP MY INJURY I'M INVOLVED IN CRASH. I HAVE READ THE HTSA SIGHT OF RECALL AND COMPLAINTS AND ANOTHER OWNER'S STORY IS A MATCH SIMILAR TO MINE....THEY ARE COMPLAINT NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10986169. I HAVE TO GO TO THE DEALER THIS WEEK FOR AN APPT FOR YET ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE AND HAVE TO ASK THEM TO LOOK AT THE AIRBAG ISSUE......I BELIEVE NO MATTER WHAT THE MANUFACTURERS SHOULD PAY FOR FIXING ANY AIRBAG PROBLEM A CUSTOMER COMES IN WITH!!! IT SHOULD NOT BE PUT AS A BURDEN ON THE OWNER AND A TRUE HARDSHIP TO ME BECAUSE I HAVE TO BORROW MONEY TO FIX POSSIBLY.

NOW ITS A TOTAL LOSS THEY ARE ONLY PAYING OFF MY LOAN AND I AM STUCK WITH TRYING TO COME UP WITH MY OWN MONEY TO BUY A NEW CAR NOW I THINK I SHOULD BE ENTILTED TO A LAWSUIT I COULD OF DIED IF THOSE DOORS DID NOT END UP UNLOCKING.

THIS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM SHOWED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE ENTIRE CAR SHUT DOWN GOING 40 MPH. LIGHTS FLASHED, WIPERS WENT OFF, HORN TOO, ALL FOR 10 SECONDS, WHILE CRUISING WITH NOW POWER/GAS. THEN THE CAR STARTED AGAIN ON ITS OWN, AND KEPT DRIVING. EVER SINCE, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS SCREWED UP. WIPERS WILL RUN, BUT DO NOT PUSH FLUID. CAR DOORS WILL NOT LOCK/UNLOCK WITH KEYFOB OR DRIVER'S SIDE CONTROLS. MUST MANUALLY LOCK/UNLOCK ALL DOORS. THE TAILGATE CANNOT UNLOCK, THEREFORE WILL NOT OPEN. FAN DOESN'T WORK, SO NO A/C OR HEAT. MECHANIC SAID THE TIPM MUST BE REPLACED, AND IT IS NOT COVERED BY JEEP/CHRYSLER WARRANTY. $1300 OUT OF POCKET! THIS IS RIDICULOUS, IT IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT.

FIRST INCIDENT WAS IN NOVEMBER TO WHERE MY HEADLIGHTS QUIT WORKING. I SWITCHED OUT THE DUAL SWITCH BUT THAT DID NOT HELP AND THEN TRIED CLEANING AND SWITCHING THE RELAYS AROUND IN THE TIPM AND THAT HELPED SOMEWHAT. NOW I HAVE A WHOLE SET OF PROBLEMS. MY WIPERS WILL NOT SHUT OFF AND HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT SHUT OFF UNLESS I TURN CAR OFF, AND MY BLINKERS ARE NOT WORKING AT ALL. I HAD TO PULL THE FUSE FOR THE WIPERS BUT CANNOT FIND THE FUSE FOR THE BLINKERS BECAUSE IT IS PART OF THE TIPM AS WELL AS THE HEADLIGHTS. I AM WORRIED THAT WITH THESE LITTLE ISSUES COMING UP THAT EVENTUALLY BIGGER ONES WILL HAPPEN IF THE TIPM IS THE PROBLEM AND CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT THIS, WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL. I DO NOT SEE WHY I SHOULD DISH OUT ALL THIS MONEY TO REPAIR SOMETHING THAT IS A DEFECT.

I SAW THE LOW AIR WARNING LIGHT GO ON FIRST, THEN IMMEDIATELY FELT THE VEHICLE WOBBLE TO THE POINT WHERE I COULD BARELY CONTROL IT. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GET IT TO THE RIGHT SIDE SHOULDER WHERE I CHANGED THE TIRE. I NOTICED THAT THE ENTIRE VALVE WAS MISSING FROM THE RIM. I DID NOT NOTICE ANY NAILS OR OTHER PENETRATIONS OF THE TIRE ITSELF. HAD IT BEEN ONE OF THE FRONT TIRES, I MIGHT HAVE LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR. WHEN WE GOT TO A TIRE STORE TO HAVE THE BAD TIRE CHECKED OUT, THE MECHANIC & THE OWNER SAID WE HAD DEFECTIVE AIR PRESSURE SENSOR VALVES AND THAT WE ESSENTIALLY EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT. THE MECHANIC SHOWED US THE OTHER VALVES AND THEY WERE ALL CRACKED AS WELL. WE HAD THEM ALL REPLACED AND HAD TO BUY A NEW TIRE AS WELL. THE CRACKS IN THE SENSOR VALVES WERE OBVIOUS. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY MATTER THAT COULD CAUSE FATALITIES IF THEY HAVE NOT OCCURED ALREADY.
