2008 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

CAR WON'T START. NONE OF THE ELECTRICAL WORKS. DEALER TELLS ME IT'S DEFECTIVE TIPM. IT'S VERY EXPENSIVE AND DANGEROUS. I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. WE WERE STATIONARY WHEN THE VEHICLE POWER STOPPED WORKING THANK GOD. BUT I SEEN ONLINE WHERE SOME PEOPLE HAD THE TIPM PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A CONSTANT LEAK COMING FROM THE TOP OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER FOR SEVERAL FAILURES THAT RECURRED. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRACKING AND REAR PASSENGER SIDE HANDLE SCREWS, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER FAILED TO PROVIDE A REMEDY TO PREVENT THE FAILURE AFTER THE DEALER REPLACED SEVERAL PARTS; THEREFORE, THE LEAK CONTINUED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE PANORAMIC SUN ROOF SLID BACK AND FORTH, AFFECTING ITS PERFORMANCE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT OPENED THE PANORAMIC SUN ROOF TO SEE IF IT WOULD STABILIZE, BUT IT FAILED TO CLOSE PROPERLY AND THE WIND PUSHED IT OFF TRACK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (BAYSIDE JEEP AND CHRYSLER, QUEENS, NY, 718-229-8700), BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO REPAIR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER AND THEY PROMISED TO TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.

I'VE HAD MY JEEP FOR 2.5 YEARS NOW. WHEN I FIRST GOT IT, EVERYTHING WAS FINE AND IT WAS INSPECTED PRIOR TO PURCHASE. FOR THE PAST YEAR, THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL COME ON AND OFF ON ITS OWN. AT FIRST IT WAS INTERMITTENT, BUT FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS, IT IS CONSTANTLY ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING. IN ADDITION, ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO, WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 25 MPH ON A DARK, WINDING ROAD, THE HORN STARTED SOUNDING AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BEGAN RUNNING AT FULL SPEED. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURNED IT OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN, AND IT STOPPED. THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN SINCE.

TIPM CAR ALARM GOES OFF WIPERS GO FRONT AND BACK HORN BLARING WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID SQUIRTS OUT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE SUN ROOF SUDDENLY OPENED AND COLLAPSED IN HALF. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND MANUALLY PUSHED THE SUN ROOF BACK IN ORDER TO CONTINUE DRIVING. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE SUNROOF WAS REPLACED BY DIFFERENT UNKNOWN DEALERS FOUR OTHER TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HUVAER CHRYSLER/JEEP/DODGE IN RICHMOND, MICHIGAN WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW SUN ROOF, WHICH WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

ELECTRICAL ISSUES IS OCCURING WITH MY 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. THERE HAS BEEN TIMES THE CAR DOES NOT START AT ALL. HAPPENS ANYTIME OF THE DAY. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES, IT STARTS. HAVE SWITCHED OU THE BATTERY AND CHECKED THE STARTER/ALTERNATOR. SOMETIMES THE INSIDE LIGHTS TURN ON BY THEMSELVES. HAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RODE. HARD TO MANEVUER.

THE FRONT AXLES OF THE JEEP ARE EXTREMELY HEAVILY CORRODED BEYOND ANYTHING I'VE EVER SEEN. THE STEEL IS EASILY REMOVED BY HAND AND THE AXLE NUT IS NO LONGER PRESENT. THIS AFFECTS BOTH SIDES BUT NO OTHER STEEL PARTS APPEAR TO HAVE THE SAME CORROSION ISSUE. THE AXLES ARE THE ORIGINAL JEEP PARTS FROM THE FACTORY. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE ISSUE WAS DISCOVERED.

VARIOUS ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WOULD SPONTANEOUSLY TURN ON WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED. MY WIPERS (FRONT AND BACK) WOULD TURN ON FULL SPEED, MY HORN WOULD BLAST, LIGHTS WOULD DIM. EVEN WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF, THESE SYSTEMS STAY ON. WHEN I OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR, THE WIPERS WOULD OCCASIONALLY MOVE 1-2 INCHES.
