2004 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH THE VEHICLE WOULD VEER TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT ANY NOTICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSE THAT THE FRONT BALL JOINTS AND CONTROL ARMS BROKE. AS A RESULT, BOTH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN REPAIRED UNDER RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 06V288000 (SUSPENSION: FRONT: CONTROL ARM: LOWER BALL JOINT). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 111,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 111,200.

I GOT INTO THE CAR, STARTED IT, AND THE BACK LEFT PASSENGER WINDOW DROPPED. I BOUGHT PART NUMBER 68059647-AA REGULATOR 2303900 FOR $167.00 ON 7/2/2010.TO REPAIR THE WINDOW. 2/20/2012 I HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR AS IT DROPPED THE WINDOW AND WOULD NOT FUNCTION. I BOUGHT PART NUMBER 68059645-AB REGULATOR 23039005 FOR $182.00. SINCE THEN THE PASSENGERS' SIDE WINDOWS HAVE ALSO FAILED. ON 9/28/2012, THE BACK LEFT WINDOW REGULATOR FAILED AGAIN. I MIGHT ACCEPT 1 WINDOW REGULATOR FAILING BUT NOT 4 OR 5, IF YOU COUNT A SECOND FAILURE. WHAT GETS ME IS THE FACT THAT THE BACK WINDOWS DO NOT GET A GREAT DEAL OF USE. I BELIEVE THEY'VE BEEN USED MAYBE 10 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2004. FOR A SECOND FAILURE, WHEN THE PART HAS NOT HAD BUT 2 USES (TO CHECK THAT THE WINDOW WAS OPERATIONAL), IS RIDICULOUS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TURNING RIGHT, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

THE WINDOW REGULATOR HAS FAILED IN THE WINDOW. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM. JUST SITTING AT A LIGHT AND THE WINDOW FALLS DOWN BECAUSE OF A SMALL PLASTIC PIECE THAT HOLDS THE WINDOW UP BREAKS. *TR

VEHICLE INDICATED THAT PASSENGER FRONT DOOR WAS AJAR, THIS AFTER TEN MINUTES OF DRIVING. DOOR WAS IN FACT NOT AJAR. PASSENGER OPENED AND CLOSED DOOR JUST TO CHECK, DOOR THEN WOULD NO LONGER FULLY CLOSE. PULLED MANUAL LOCK TO SEE IF IT WAS STUCK, WHOLE PIECE CAME OUT. SMOKE STARTED POURING OUT OF HOLE AND DOOR METAL WAS VERY HOT TO THE TOUCH. REMOVED DOOR PANEL TO PUT OUT FIRE INSIDE. LOCK ACTUATOR MOTOR MELTED DOWN AND PARTS WERE SMOLDERING. DURING THIS PROCESS THE ELECTRONIC BACK GLASS POPPED OPEN AS WELL AND WILL NO LONGER LATCH EITHER. CHRYSLER RECALLED SOME 2004 LIBERTY'S FOR THESE MOTORS OVERHEATING AND SEIZING, WAS INFORMED THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED AND THAT WE SHOULD HAVE 'MAINTAINED THE WIRING IN THE DOOR'. THIS VEHICLE IS METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED! *TR

FOR APPROXIMATELY 1YR, THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY JEEP LIBERTY SPORT 2004 HAVE BEEN FLICKERING ON AND OFF. IT USE TO HAPPEN ONLY ONCE AND AWHILE AND THEY WOULD GO RIGHT BACK ON AND THEN STAY ON. HOWEVER RECENTLY I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DRIVE MY JEEP AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE HEADLIGHTS CONSTANTLY GO ON AND OFF ON ME AND SOMETIMES STAY OFF. *TR

HEADLIGHTS GO OFF THEN BACK ON WITH A CLICKING SOUND UNDER DASH. PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. CHRYSLER CASE # [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY HEADLIGHTS BEGAN TO TURN ON AND OFF BY THEMSELVES. I HEAR THE CLICK CLICK LIKE THEY ARE BEING TURNED ON OR OFF BUT IT IS HAPPENING ON IT'S OWN. THIS HAS NO HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND CURRENTLY I CAN NOT DRIVE IT AT NIGHT OR DURING BAD WEATHER. IT HAPPENS IN RAPIDLY THE CARS AROUND THINK I AM FLASHING LIGHTS AT THEM. VERY DANGEROUS! *TR

WINDOW FALLS INTO DOOR & CANNOT BE CLOSED. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ON DIFFERENT WINDOWS. *TR
