2002 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

WHEN VEHICLE GOES BETWEEN 50 AND 53MPH THE CAR WILL BEGIN TO DRAMATICALLY VIBRATE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT (NORWALK, CT) AND THEY TOLD ME TIRES WERE OUT OF WHACK & THEY REBALANCED TIRES & SAID IT WAS FIXED. OBVIOUSLY THEY DID NOT TEST DRIVE B/C PROBLEM STILL EXISTED. TOOK CAR TO PAMBY IN RIDGEFIELD,CT AND ONE OF THE OWNERS TEST DROVE IT AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. BROUGHT CAR BACK TO THEM ABOUT 1 MONTH LATER AND 2 MECHANICS SAID YES, CAR DOES VIBRATE AT 50MPH. THEY TOOK OUT DRIVE SHAFT AND PUT ANOTHER ONE IN FROM ANOTHER LIBERTY SPORT & SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED. THEY THEN TOOK OUT DRIVE SHAFT AND GAVE ME MY OLD ONE BACK. SERVICE WRITER SAID HE WOULD CONTACT CHRYSLER AND GET BACK TO ME WITH INFO. AFTER 3 WEEKS AND NO CALL I WENT INTO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER HAD NOT CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT. BACK YET. IT HAS NOW BEEN 6 WEEKS AND STILL NO ANSWER FROM DEALERSHIP OR CHRYSLER!! I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN GOOD FAITH THAT IT WOULD BE A SAFE AND DEPENDABLE VEHICLE! VEHICLE ALSO NOW DOES VIBRATING AT 70MPH. STILL CURIOUS AS TO WHEN CHRYSLER WILL RECALL THIS AND FIX IT CORRECTLY! DT

THE DEALER ADVISED ME THAT THE PULLING TO THE RIGHT IS A CHARISTIC OF VEHICLE AND NO SOLUTIONS AT THIS TIME. THIS PULL IS A CONSTANT PULL AND REQUIRES THAT WE HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTLY TOWARDS THE LEFT TO COMPENSATE FOR THE RIGHT PULL. THIS IS A HAZARD AND CAN EASILY CAUSE OVER CORRECTION ON TURNS BECAUSE YOU ARE TRYING TO COMPENSATE FOR THE PULL. DT

CONSUMER STATES THAT WHILE DRIVING THE CONSUMER WILL LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. MR
