I do own a 2005 Jeep Liberty. I have had the rear end replaced twice. The transfer case replaced. When I fill it with gas, the gas comes back out and spills all over me and my clothes so I cannot fill it full. I paid over $600 to have the front control arm replaced and tomorrow I am taking it in for a recall on both rear suspension lower control arms. Now I have read that Chryslers resolution to the rear end fires and explosions that are killing people is to install a freakin trailer hitch on these vehicles!!! I think if Chrysler had an ounce of decency they would recall these vehicles and admit their mistake.
