2002 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

I HAVE A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY THAT I HAVE HAD FOR FOUR YEARS. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE REGULATOR IN THE BACK WINDOWS 3 TIMES. JEEP IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT DOING THIS 3X'S IS EVEN AN ISSUE. ALSO, MY JEEP DEALER WILL NOT RETURN MY CALLS WHEN I CALL TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THE ALREADY RECALLED ITEMS FIXED. *TR

IT HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY! I HAVE A JEEP LIBERTY 2002. MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL FELL OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING (WITH MY KIDS) IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA:HAD IT BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY, I KNOW THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN INJURIES. I HAVE HAD TWO RECALLS. FIRST RECALL 2004 AND ANOTHER AT THE END OF 2007. JANUARY 2008 WHILE I DRIVING BOTH FRONT TIRES POPPED OFF (VERY SCARY), THEN SECOND RECALL WAS DONE. SINCE THIS WAS SUPPOSEDLY TAKEN CARE OF, I THOUGHT THAT ALL WAS OK AND THEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN LAST NIGHT! WHY CAN SOMEBODY MAKE JEEP FIND AN ANSWER BEFORE THERE IS A FATALITY, OR IS THIS WHAT HEY ARE WAITING FOR? THE RIGHT NUMBER OF DEATHS. *TR

MY 2002 JEEP LIBERTY WITH 90,000 MILES, THE FRONT RIGHT UPPER BALL-JOINT FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ACROSS THE FLOW OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. AS I TURNED SOUTH ON MOUND RD FROM HALL RD IN STERLING HEIGHTS MICHIGAN I, HEARD A LOUD NOISE FROM THE FRONT RIGHT AND THEN THE WHEEL SEPARATED AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. MY JEEP WAS TOWED THAT NIGHT TO UTICA VAN DYKE SERVICE FOR REPAIRS 586-739-2680. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP LIBERTY 2002 SPORT 4-WHEEL DRIVE TRUCK. I WENT OVER A SET OF RAILROAD TRACKS AND I HEARD A TERRIBLE SQUEAK! I PULLED OVER INTO A BANK PARKING LOT TO FIND MY TIRE UNDER MY CAR. THE UPPER BALL JOINT BROKE CAUSING ME TO HAVE MY TRUCK TOWED AND FIXED. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2002 JEEP LIBERTY USED IN 2005. MY EXCITEMENT OVER THE NEW USED VEHICLE WAS SHORTLY LIVED. BEFORE I COULD EVEN MAKE A PAYMENT MY VEHICLE HAD A MAJOR PROBLEM. MY MOTHER WAS DRIVING IT ON A PAPER ROUTE IN THE COUNTRY EARLY IN THE MORNING WHEN SHE WENT TO PULL AWAY FROM THE MAILBOX SHE SAID THE CAR WOULD NO LONGER MOVE. SHE PROCEEDED TO GET OUT AND SAW THE LOWER CONTROL ARM AND THE TIRE HANGING THERE. SHE HAD TO WALK AND KNOCK A STRANGERS DOOR AT 6 IN THE MORNING TO CALL A TOW TRUCK. IT WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL MECHANIC THAT THEN INVESTIGATED RECALLS ON THE LIBERTY AND FOUND THAT IT WAS A RECALL. IT WAS THEN TOWED TO JEEP AND I WAS INFORMED ABOUT BEING REIMBURSED FOR THE TOWING BY DIAMOND CHRYSLER WHICH I NEVER WAS. IT WAS FIXED AND MY WINDOW WASHER FLUID RESERVOIR WAS BUSTED AND SO WAS MY WHEEL WELL WHICH WAS ALSO REPLACED. THEN I STILL HAD THE SAME NOISE THAT I HAD BEFORE THIS SO I CALLED JEEP BUT THEY TOLD ME IF THEY LOOKED AT IT AND IT WASN'T THE BALL JOINT/CONTROL ARM THEN THEY WOULD CHARGE ME AND I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY SO I DIDN'T TAKE IT IN. THEN IN 2006 I GOT THE RECALL NOTICE FROM JEEP AND HAD IT REPLACED AGAIN. I AM STILL CONTINUOUSLY HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HERE THE SAME LOUD POPPING NOISE WHEN I TURN HARD AND YOU CAN TELL IT STILL ISN'T RIGHT. I SAW THIS INVESTIGATION AND I FEEL THAT I SHOULD INFORM YOU SO WE CAN GET THESE VEHICLES EITHER FIXED OR OFF THE ROAD. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON BLOGS ABOUT THE LIBERTY'S AND I FEEL MY MONEY HAS BEEN WASTED WITH THIS MALFUNCTION OF A VEHICLE. I AM TRULY SCARED FOR MY SAFETY AND OTHERS. THERE WERE THE ORIGINAL SETS, THEN THE FIRST RECALL, AND THEN A SECOND RECALL WITH NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. PLEASE PLEASE HELP! *TR
