2004 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

FROM MARCH 5 2004, 2 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE OF BRAND NEW JEEP LIBERTY THE WINDOWS HAVE FALLEN DOWN A TOTAL OF 14 TIMES. AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED I HAVE HAD TO PAY A TOTAL OF OVER $780. FOR REPAIR. I AM 76 & ON SOCIAL SECURITY. THE BACK WINDOW HAS FALLEN AGAIN 2 DAYS AGO & I CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED. *TR

ON 01/02/12 MY PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW FELL DOWN AND WOULD NOT ROLL BACK UP. NOW, SINCE THAT TIME, ON 03/16/12 MY DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW HAS FELL DOWN TOO AND WILL NOT ROLL UP. WITHIN, TWO MONTHS BOTH OF MY WINDOWS HAVE FAILED. THERE IS SOME KIND OF MALFUNCTION GOING ON HERE. DOES THIS MEAN IN FOUR MORE MONTHS, THAT ALL OF MY WINDOWS WILL FAIL? SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT NOT JUST I AM HAVING. THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR JEEP. UPDATED 04/02/12 *BF
