2012 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND TURNED OFF. CAR ALARM SOUNDED DUE TO LOUD VIBRATION NOISE NEARBY. WHEN WENT OUT TO CAR TO RESET, THE DASH LIGHT INDICATED REAR GATE LIFT OPEN. CHECKED GATE AND IT WAS SECURELY LATCHED, AS WAS THE WINDOW. RESET ALARM AND WENT BACK INSIDE. I WAS NOTIFIED AGAIN THAT ALARM WAS SOUNDING AND HAD TO TURN THE ALARM OFF COMPLETELY. KEPT GETTING WARNING THAT GATE LIFT WAS OPEN WHICH IT WAS NOT. INTERIOR DOME LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. STARTED CAR AND SHUT IT OFF AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES..GATE LIFT INDICATOR STILL SHOWING UP. FINALLY GAVE UP AND IGNORED IT AFTER HAVING OPENED AND SHUT GATE AND SEPARATE WINDOW LATCHES SEVERAL TIMES. THE LIGHT FINALLY WENT OUT AFTER SEVERAL HOURS...NEITHER THE GATE OR THE WINDOW WERE EVER FOUND TO NOT HAVE BEEN SECURE. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW 2012 JEEP LIBERTY FROM A DEALERSHIP IN SEPTEMBER OF 2012. THE VEHICLE HAS P235/60R18 FORTERA HL TIRES ON IT. THE ADVERTISED MILEAGE ON THIS TIRE IS 60K MILES. I WAS TOLD THAT WHEN THESE TIRES ARE PUT ON NEW VEHICLES THAT THEY ARE SUB-STANDARD. MY CAR NOW HAS 30,200 MILES AND THE TIRES ARE WORN SMOOTH WITH NORMAL DRIVING. GOODYEAR SAID THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE THE 4 TIRES FOR $623.00. WHEN I RESEARCHED THE REVIEWS, MY SITUATION WAS RATHER COMMON. THE TIRES ARE UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON IN THEIR CURRENT CONDITION AND WHEN THE PUBLIC RELIES ON AN ADVERTISED MILEAGE OF 60K MILES, THIS IS A BLATANT MISREPRESENTATION OF THE PRODUCT. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ONCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,200...UPDATED 12/29/14 *BF UPDATED 01/12/15. *JB

DRIVER'S SIDE LOCK FLUTTERS UP AND DOWN RAPIDLY EVERY TIME THE CAR LOCKS EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. MAKES A LOUD AND STARTLING NOISE THAT IS DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING. SOMETIMES THE DOOR GETS STUCK FROM THE INSIDE BECAUSE OF THE LOCK ISSUE AND THE DRIVER CANNOT EXIT THE VEHICLE FROM THAT SIDE. *TR

OPENED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED TO FIND A FOOT OF WATER THAT LEAKED IN FROM THE FABRIC OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE ROOF. *TR

WE BOUGHT THE 2012 JEEP LIBERTY LAST YEAR AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON RANDOMLY LAST WEEK WHEN I STARTED IT AND HASN'T TURNED OFF. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WOULD BE $125.00 TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM THEN MORE MONEY TO FIX IT. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE AND NOT HAVING THE MONEY TO FIX THIS ISSUE I AM AFRAID THAT THE AIRBAGS MIGHT DEPLOY WHILE I AM DRIVING. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. WE LATER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE AIRBAGS. WE TOOK THE 2012 JEEP LIBERTY TO SPITZER JEEP IN BROOKPARK OH ON NOVEMBER 5, 2014. THEY CALLED LATER THAT DAY AND SAID THEY WERE FIXING THE RECALL ISSUE, BUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON BECAUSE THE MODULE NEEDS REPLACED AND AS OF NOW THE AIRBAGS ARE ESSENTIALLY "OFFLINE" MEANING THEY WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THEY SAID IT WOULD BE $350-$400 TO REPLACE. ONE WOULD THINK CHRYSLER WOULD HANDLE ANY ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAGS GIVEN THEY HAVE THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES WITH AIRBAG ISSUES. WE DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO CURRENTLY FIX THIS AND SO ARE HAVING TO RISK SAFETY OVER COST. *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. (THIS IS FIRST TIME) THEN IT WENT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND CAME BACK ON AGAIN. CONCERNED THAT AIRBAG COULD BLOW UP IN MY FACE WHILE DRIVING!! ALSO RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE FOR HEAD RESTRAINT AND THEN A NOTICE THAT DEALER WILL CONTACT ME WHEN PART IS IN. THAT WAS OVER 3 MONTHS AGO!!! *TR

SAFETY RECALL N36 (NHT#13V-282 CALLS FOR FLASHING TIPM & REPLACING OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE. THIS VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, SO WHEN I TOOK IT IN TODAY (SRS LIGHT ON) , THE CHARGE WAS 400$. WHY WAS THIS VIN NOT INCLUDED WHEN OTHERS (KA, KK, ETC, NOT KX) WERE. SEEMS FAIRLY RELATED. *TR

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON. JEEP WOULD NOT STAND BEHIND THIS IN A ONE YEAR OLD VEHICLE. THEY WANT ME TO PAY $400 TO REPAIR AND TOLD ME THAT I AM IN DANGER. IF I DON'T REPAIR THEN THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN A COLLISION. SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM I THINK JEEP SHOULD CORRECT AT NO COST TO ME. ALSO, THE BACK WINDOW WIPER STOPPED WORKING AND CHANGING OF FUSES DID NOT CORRECT. I AM ASSUME ELECTRICAL AND MAYBE THE AIRBAG THING IS ALSO ELECTRICAL. *TR
