2006 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V252000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE , STRUCTURE) SHE WAS CONCERNED FOR HER SAFETY SINCE THE PARTS WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THERE ARE NO FAILURES AT THIS TIME. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

MY ORIGINAL INTENT WAS TO FILE A COMPLAINT ABOUT A GAS OVERFLOW ISSUE, BUT AFTER SEEING ALL THE OTHER LIBERTY COMPLAINTS, I HAVE INCLUDED OTHER ISSUES I HAVE: 1. FOR AT LEAST TWO YEARS, WHEN PUMPING GAS, THE GAS HAS CONTINUED TO FLOW EVEN AFTER THE AUTOMATIC FLOW HAS SHUT OFF. I NOW STAND AT THE PUMP AND WHEN I THINK IT IS GETTING FULL, I START PUMPING BY HAND TO AVOID THE OVERFLOW. AFTER CHECKING ON THE INTERNET, THIS IS AN ISSUE OTHER LIBERTY OWNERS EXPERIENCE. I DID RECEIVE THE INITIAL RECALL NOTICE FOR 13V-252, BUT NOTHING SINCE TO SAY THE PART IS IN. SINCE THE GAS OVERFLOW IS EXPERIENCED BY MANY OWNERS, IS THIS PART OF THE RECALL? 2. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. IT HAS BEEN RE-SET MANY TIMES; IS OK FOR A DAY OR TWO AND THEN RE-APPEARS. PER OWNER'S MANUAL, THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE UNLESS THE LIGHT IS FLASHING, WHICH IT IS NOT, BUT WHY DOES THIS CONTINUE TO OCCUR? 3. BOTH BACK ELECTRIC WINDOWS HAVE FALLEN DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. BOTH ARE NOW SECURED IN PLACE WITH TAPE, AS IT WOULD BE TOO EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. 4. THE BACK LEFT DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. *TR

THIS STARTED APROX 3 YEARS AGO. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK TO FULL, THE PUMP WOULD KICK OFF AND THEN GAS WOULD ALWAYS SPIT BACK AND OVERFLOW ON TO THE GROUND (SCARY) TO AVOID THIS, I STOPPED FILLING THE TANK TO FULL AND ONLY TO 3/4 FULL AND THE PROBLEM STOPPED. BUT NOW, I CAN'T ADD FUEL WITHOUT GAS SHOOTING BACK ALL OVER THE PLACE EVEN WHEN THE TANK HAS LOW FUEL. THE ONLY WAY FUEL CAN BE ADDED WITHOUT GETTING DRENCHED IN GAS, IS TO FIND A PUMP THAT YOU CAN FEATHER THE ON/OFF HANDLE TO RUN SLOW ENOUGH SO IT'S BARELY ADDING FUEL, THEN IT WILL NOT BACK UP. IT TAKES AT LEAST 20 MINUTES AT THE PUMP TO ADD 10 GALLONS OF GAS. UNFORTUNATELY I GAVE THIS VEHICLE TO MY 20 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND SHE IS SCARED TO ADD FUEL SO I HAVE TO DO IT. ALSO, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE CLOCK SPRING AND THE "GAS CAP" LIGHT NEVER SHUTS OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR CLOCK SPRING ISSUES AND THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE SO SHE DROVE IT FOR MONTHS WITH THE WARNING LIGHTS ON AND THE PART IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE BUT THE LIGHTS HAVE NOW SHUT OFF.... THE GAS CAP WARNING COULD NOT BE FIXED BY THE DEALER SO THAT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. BUT THIS FUELING PROBLEM IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. *TR

ON THE FIRST INCIDENT THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW FELL, SO IT WAS REPLACED. THEN ON 09/10/10 BOTH FRONT WINDOW REGULATORS STARTED TO GO OUT AND ONE WAS COMPLETELY OUT SO I HAD BOTH REGULATORS REPLACED. THEN ON 08/29/11 THE REAR DRIVER WINDOW REGULATOR WENT OUT AND THE REGULATOR WAS REPLACED. THEN 01/20/14 THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATOR WENT OUT AGAIN. *TR

DASHBOARD LIGHTS FOR ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, AND TRACTION CONTROL COME ON AND STAYED LIT UNTIL AFTER TURNING THE MOTOR OFF. THE SYSTEMS DON'T SEEM TO FUNCTION WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON. THIS OCCURS SEVERAL TIMES A MONTH WITH NO APPARENT REASON, IE: NOT SLIPPERY CONDITIONS, WEATHER IS VARIABLE. I NOTICED ANOTHER DRIVER SAID IT HAPPENS WHEN THEIR LIGHTS ARE ON. I ALWAYS DRIVE WITH MY LIGHTS ON, SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS A FACTOR. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM NOZZLE ALLOWS FUEL TO BE EXPELLED AFTER PUMP AUTO SHUTOFF ENGAGES CAUSING FUEL TO SPILL ON VEHICLE AND ONTO PAVEMENT. *TR

FIRST - MY VEHICLE IS UNDER RECALL AND HAS BEEN FOR 6 MONTHS AND JEEP DOES NOT HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE - UNDER REAR END CRASH A FIRE CAN HAPPEN FROM GAS TANK - JEEP SUPPOSED TO PUT A HITCH ON VEHICLE HOWEVER DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS. THEY CANNOT GIVE ME A DATE OF WHEN THOSE PARTS MIGHT BE AVAILABLE. SECONDLY, MY GAS TANK SPILLS OVER WHENEVER IT IS FILLED AT GAS STATION.....I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A VALVE PROBLEM THAT WOULD MEAN A GAS TANK REPLACEMENT AT MY OWN COST. THIS IS WHAT I WAS TOLD IN 1-11-2012. *TR

ESP BAS ABS LIGHTS KEEPING COMING ON AND PULLING TO ONE SIDE OCCASIONALLY FOR UNKNOWN REASON WHILE LIGHTS ARE ON. NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET FROM OTHER 2006 JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS. *TR
