2008 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

THE SKY SLIDER ON THE 2008 JEEP LIBERTY IS DEFECTIVE AND JEEP WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!! THIS IS RIDICULOUS! IT IS GOING TO COST $2,000 TO GET THE THING FIXED! I DON'T EVEN OPEN THE THING AND WHEN IT BROKE IT WAS CLOSED!!! I WAS DRIVING IN A STORM AND THE WIND CAUGHT IT AND BROKE IT. DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME I HAVE TO HAVE A WHOLE NEW SYSTEM...TRACKS AND ALL! THIS IS CRAZY!!! I CALLED JEEP FOR SOME HELP WITH THIS ISSUE AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO, OH YES THERE IS SOMETHING THEY CAN DO....RECALL THIS SKY SLIDER!!! I AM GOING TO CONTINUE TO CALL THEM ON A DAILY BASIS AND KEEP ASKING FOR SOMEONE WITH MORE AUTHORITY UNTIL I GET MY WAY ON THIS AND MAKE THEM RECALL IT SO THAT WE CAN ALL GET OUR MONEY BACK ON THIS DEFECTIVE PRODUCT!! I URGE ANYONE ELSE WITH THIS PROBLEM TO DO THE SAME THING....IF ENOUGH OF US KEEP CALLING AND COMPLAINING, MAYBE WE CAN GET SOME SATISFACTION. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2008 JEEP LIBERTY SKYSLIDER ON A LOCAL ROAD AT AROUND 40 MPH. THE ROOF ( A CONVERTIBLE TYPE) BEGAN RATTLING AND CAME OFF THE TRACKS WHILE IN THE CLOSE POSITION CAUSING THE ROOF TO FLY UP. I CONTACTED JEEP AND THEY HAVE NO REMEDY FOR THIS ALTHOUGH AFTER LOOKING THIS UP ONLINE, THERE ARE TONS A SIMILAR INCIDENTS. A CAR IN WHICH THE ROOF FLIES UP IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AND JEEP SHOULD BE LIABLE SINCE THIS DOESN'T SEEM TO BE AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. *TR

WHENEVER I FILL THE GAS TANK THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL, BUT GAS SURGES UP THE SPOUT AND DUMPS ON THE GROUND. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TYPE OF GAS (PREMIUM OR REGULAR, OR ETHANOL OR NO ETHANOL) OR THE SETTING ON THE PUMP HANDLE (FAST OR SLOW). THIS IS A FIRE, EXPLOSION RISK AS WELL AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM. I REALLY DON'T EXPECT YOU TO DO ANYTHING UNTIL AFTER PEOPLE ARE HURT OR KILLED, BUT WHEN THAT HAPPENS I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SAY "YOU KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM, AND DIDN'T CARE". *TR

THE SKYSLIDER ROOF ON THE JEEP LIBERTY DOES NOT STAY CLOSED WHILE DRIVING. IT LIFTS LOOSE FROM THE TRACK WHILE CLOSED AND TRAVELING AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH. I AM ABLE TO SEE THE OUTSIDE THROUGH THE GAP IT CREATES AND FEAR THAT IT WILL LIFT OPEN FROM THE CAR. I HAVE READ OF SIMILAR INCIDENTS WHERE THE ROOF DID INDEED FALL OFF AT HIGH SPEEDS. I FEAR THAT MINE WILL TOO. *TR
