2008 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SKY SLIDER DETACHED FROM THE TRACK AND THE SKY SLIDER COULD NOT BE CLOSED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE HE WAS ADVISED THAT A ROD WAS FRACTURED AND THE SKY SLIDER WAS OFF-TRACK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE UP WITH GASOLINE, IT SPEWS OUT OF THE INTAKE, DRAINING ALL OVER THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND OF THE GAS STATION. NOT ONLY IS THIS A WASTE OF A RESOURCE AND MONEY BUT IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AS ONE SPARK COULD IGNITE THE ENTIRE GAS STATION KILLING INNOCENT CHILDREN AND OTHER CITIZENS. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THIS SITE AND MANY OTHERS. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED BEFORE PEOPLE ARE HURT. *TR

VALVE LIFTERS OF THE JEEP LIBERTY 3.6L ENGINE FAILED PREMATURELY AT 40K. MANUFACTURER REFUSED FIXING THE PROBLEM AS TRUCK WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL THE LIBERTY UP WITH FUEL IS OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS OUT. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF I PUMP THE FUEL FAST OR SLOW, IT SPILLS OUT EVERY TIME. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR ME, MY FAMILY AND EVERYONE AROUND ME WHEN I PUT FUEL IN. *TR

FUEL SHOOTS OUT OF INLET WHEN FILLING GAS TANK. DURING ONE OF THE MANY INCIDENTS THE FUEL SHOT OUT ABOUT 18 INCHES FROM THE FILLER INLET. *TR

WHEN FILLING MY JEEP AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS I HAVE EXPERIENCED OVERFLOW. IT RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND ALL OVER THE GROUND. IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES AT DIFFERENT STATIONS. IT SEEMS DANGEROUS AND IS OBVIOUSLY A WASTE OF MONEY. *TR

I PURCHASED A USED 2008 JEEP LIBERTY IN MAY OF 2011. EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL MID-DECEMBER 2011 WHILE I WAS FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. THE PUMP SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY BUT GAS SPOUTED OUT OF THE FILL ALL OVER THE PUMP HANDLE AND MY HAND. IT'S A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF GAS SPILLING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND PUDDLING ON THE GROUND. THIS NOW HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK UNLESS I TRY TO CUT IT OFF EARLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE DANGER OF SPILLED GAS AND AN MAJOR INCONVENIENCE. I SEE HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE SO CLEARLY THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM. I STRONGLY URGE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AND COMPEL CHRYSLER TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE REFUELING THE VEHICLE THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FUEL SPILLED OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE FAILURE RECURRED EVERY TIME THE CONTACT WOULD REFUEL THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

SAFETY CONCERN: WHILE FILLING UP MY 2008 JEEP LIBERTY THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY, BUT A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS SPILLS OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE ALL OVER THE GROUND, VEHICLE, AND ON THE PERSON PUMPING THE GAS. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME I FILL UP. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

THE GASTANK OVERFLOWS AND SPITS OUT A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF GASOLINE EVERY TIME YOU GET GAS! IT IS A HAZARD AND A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER JEEP FOR A YEAR NOW AND THEY REFUSE TO ASSIST IN CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO GET THE GASTANK REPAIRED AND IT STILL WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. FROM MY RESEARCH THERE ARE MANY OF THESE COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. I CAN'T BELIEVE JEEP HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES. I AM WORRIED EVERYDAY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY FAMILY. I'M NOT WILLING TO TAKE ANY MORE CHANCES WITH GAS ALL OVER THE TRUCK EVERY TIME I DRIVE, AND HOW CAN I GO ABOUT SELLING A CAR TO SOMEONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. I AM NOT SURE WHERE TO GO NEXT. I HOPE YOU CAN HELP IN THIS MATTER. *TR
