2012 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

THE HEADLIGHTS GO OUT RANDOMLY WHEN THEY ARE ON AUTO DRIVING AT NIGHT. I THEN HAVE TO TURN THEM ON MANUAL WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN SEEN BY A MECHANIC TWICE IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS. MA 10/5

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V282000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

I STARTED OFF BY DRIVING DOWN HILL ON HIGHWAY 40. ALL VEHICLE LIGHTS LIT UP ON DASHBOARD, ENGING STALLED, NO BRAKES OR STEERING. I SHIFTED THE VEHICLE TO NEUTRAL AND WAS ABLE TO COME TO A STOP ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED UP THE NEXT HILL. NO TURNS, THE ROAD WAS STRAIGHT. TURNED THE KEY OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, AND THE JEEP RAN FINE. LATER THAT DAY IN A PARKING LOT, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. STARTED THE VEHICLE, STARTED TO PULL OUT OF THE PARKING LOT, ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON, THE ENGINE STALLED AND HAD NO BRAKES OR STEERING. PLACED THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL UNTIL THE JEEP CAME TO A STOP, TURNED THE KEY OFF, THEN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE JEEP RAN OK UNTIL WE GOT HOME.

I WAS DRIVING 35 MILES PER HOUR, THE ESC WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, CAR IS JERKING WHEN YOU ARE COMING TO A STOP. THE ESC IS FLASHING. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW IN 2012 ,THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN THREE WEEKS THIS HAS HAPPENED. FIRST TWO TIME LIGHT WHEN OFF WHEN VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF NOT THIS TIME. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO ON THIS TIME.

I HAVE A 2012 JEEP LIBERTY LIMITED 4X4 AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO IT WILL COME ON STAY ON THEN TURN OFF BUT ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT JUST STAYED ON ALL THE TIME. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER AND CHRYSLER TO TELL THEM ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT SINCE I DIDN'T BUY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THEY WANT TO CHARGE FOR ME TO TAKE IT IN AND FOR THEM TO GET A CODE. I FEEL LIKE IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY SHOULD TAKE CARE IF THE PROBLEM .THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT I DON'T SEE WHY THEY CAN'T TAKE CARE OF THAT PROBLEM.

TURNED ON IGNITION. THE AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHED ON AND WARNING INDICATOR CAUGHT MY ATTENTION BECAUSE THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WENT ON AND STAYED ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE WAS DEFECTIVE, BUT THEY COULD NOT REPLACE IT UNLESS THE CONTACT PURCHASED THE PART. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V282000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,625.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR GATE LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE ALARM SOUNDED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS LOCKED. THE CONTACT HAD TO LEAVE THE DOORS UNLOCKED IN ORDER TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS INFORMED BY A MECHANIC THAT IT SEEMED LIKE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON, AND REMAINS ON, FOR NO REASON. NO ACCIDENTS, WHICH COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE ANY POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION. THE AIR BAG HAS NOT DEPLOYED. IT APPEARS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION. ALSO, THE CLOCK SEEMS TO RUN TWO MINUTES SLOW EVERY MONTH.

NOTHING MAJOR YET..THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TIPM,MY JEEP JUST WENT OVER 50,000 MILES AND NOW I HAVE THIS THAT IS OUT OF WARRENTY.BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM IS OUT THERE AND NO RECALL FOR THIS DEFECT AND AM GOING TO BE FORCED IN TRADING IN,I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WITH ALL THE SUDDEN ISSUES.CHRYSLER IGNORING THIS PROBLEM,I WILL NOT BY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT.I HAVE MY GRANDCHILDREN RIDE WITH ME OFTEN AND I AM CONCERNED. THANK-YOU.
