2002 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

RECALL OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE R06 / NHTSA 15V-046 RECALL IS DATED 2/6/15. IT IS NOW NOVEMBER 2015 AND THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE TO GET THIS SAFETY RECALL ISSUE CORRECTED. I HAVE CONTACTED BY DEALER SINCE FEB 2015 TO BE TOLD THE SAME THING THAT CHRYSLER HAS NOT SENT THEM THE PARTS. HOW MUCH LONGER DO I NEED TO WAIT PUTTING MYSELF AT RISK??

AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE GIVEN. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

MY JEEP CURRENTLY HAS 42,000 MILES AS OF NOV 1, 2015. IT IS 14 YEARS OLD. HOWEVER, THE 3.7 L ENGINE HAS A HISTORY (1 IN 200 AS BEST I CAN TELL FROM THE INTERNET) OF SOMEHOW COAGULATING OIL INTO SLUDGE AROUND THE 50,000 MILE MARK. THIS JEEP IS PART OF THE TRAILER HITCH AND AIRBAG RECALL, BUT AS YOU KNOW DEALERSHIPS NEVER GOT PARTS TO UPDATE. HOWEVER, IT ALSO SEEMS THE ENGINE WAS DESIGNED TO FAIL ON THESE MODELS. MECHANICS THAT WORK ON THESE ENGINES JUST SHAKE THEIR HEADS AND TELL YOU CHRYSLER UPDATED THE ENGINE TO FIX THIS BUT THAT DOESN'T HELP ANYBODY WHO HAS AN ORIGINALLY DESIGNED ENGINE. AGAIN, THESE ENGINES WERE DESIGNED TO SLUDGE. IT USUALLY STARTS WITH ROCKER ARMS CRACKING/BREAKING AND EVEN AFTER REPLACEMENT AND CLEANSING THE OIL SLUDGES UP AGAIN. OF COURSE, CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS ACT LIKE EVERY OCCURRENCE OF THIS IS ISOLATED, BUT THIRD PARTY MECHANICS KNOW BETTER. MINE HAS TWO JEEPS RIGHT NOW THAT ARE SLUDGED. BASICALLY THE SOCIAL SAFETY CONCERN IS THAT YOUR ENGINE CAN BREAK WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING. AND ALSO THAT CHRYSLER SOLD BATCHES OF THESE ENGINES THAT THEY KNEW WERE DEFECTIVE, IF NOT AT THE ORIGINAL DESIGN THEN SOON AFTER; WHEN THEY DECIDED THEY HAD TO CHANGE THE ORIGINAL DESIGN. I'M ONLY BEING AFFECTED BY IT NOW BECAUSE I HAVE SO FEW MILES ON MY JEEP. *TR

I HAVE AN OPEN RECALL NOTICE R06 FOR THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE FROM FEBRUARY 2015. MY "AIRBAG" INDICATOR LIGHT HAS COME ON. I CONTACTED A DEALER TODAY AND WAS TOLD THAT PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE, BUT THAT I COULD MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AND HAVE THE INDICATOR LIGHT INVESTIGATED AT MY COST. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I CONTACTED THE FCA RECALL NUMBER TODAY AND WAS TOLD THAT PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2016, SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 2 1/2 AND 5 1/2 MONTHS FROM NOW. I MENTIONED THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT AND THE FACT THAT MY PREGNANT DAUGHTER-IN-LAW DRIVES THE VEHICLE. THE ADVICE I WAS GIVEN WAS THAT I SHOULD CONTACT MY DEALER ABOUT A LOANER UNTIL THE PARTS ARRIVE. AGAIN, UNACCEPTABLE.
