2010 JEEP LIBERTY Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND AN ABNORMAL FUEL ODOR WAS NOTICED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (NYLE MAXWELL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF AUSTIN, 13401 RANCH RD 620 N, AUSTIN, TX 78717, (512) 518-1097) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE O2 SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED SIX TIMES; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND 02 SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 35221828. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,355. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

THE RETRACTABLE ROOF BROKE AND WILL NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY... CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE A MONTH TO GET THE PIECES....THAT MONTH IS NOW GOING ON FIVE...WAS GIVEN A NUMBER BY THE DEALERSHIP TO CALL AND PUT IN A COMPLAINT...NOW I HAVE A CASE NUMBER AND A WOMAN WHO CALLS ME EVERY WEEK TELLING ME THEY ARE WORKING ON RECTIFYING THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD TODAY THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO MAKE THE REPLACEMENT PIECES AT THIS TIME BECAUSE THE "MOLD" FOR THE PIECE WAS LOST...SO NOW THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO FIND A MANUFACTURER TO MAKE THE "MOLD" TO MAKE THE PIECE...THEN MAKE SURE IT IS SAFE FOR THE PUBLIC....REALLY...I CALL BS..THEY NEED TO TAKE THESE CAR BACK AND RETURN MY MONEY..THIS CANNOT BE LEGAL...I AM MAKING CAR PAYMENTS ON A CAR I CANNOT DRIVE SAFELY...DO THEY NOT REALIZE GOD FORBID SOMEONE DRIVES THEIR CAR LIKE THIS AND GETS INTO AN ACCIDENT AND IS EJECTED FROM THE CAR AND DIES BECAUSE OF A FAULTY ROOF.....LAW SUITS UP THE BUTT...THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS...I WILL NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP EVER....THIS IS SUCH BAD BUSINESS ON THEIR PART.... AND I WILL TELL ANYONE WHO LISTENS TO ME TO NEVER EVER BUY A JEEP ...THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES

WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF. MID DRIVE, WHICH WAS VERY UNSAFE. IT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ROUNDING A CURVE. ATTEMPTED TO JUMP THE CAR WITH NO SUCCESS. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A LOCAL GARAGE. THEY STATE IT AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT IT WILL BE PRETTY COSTLY. EXPLAINED IT TO ME AS THE MOTHERBOARD BASICALLY FOR THE CAR. AFTER READING UP SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. I WOULD THINK JEEP WOULD FIX THIS COMMON AND COSTLY ISSUE. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP.

TAKATA RECALL - MY VEHICLE IS 8 YEARS OLD. A LOT OF PROBLEMS HAVE STARTED TO HAPPEN TWO YEARS AGO WHICH I HAVE PAID OUT OF MY POCKET CONSIDERING IT AS AGE MAINTENANCE. TWO YEARS AGO I WAS NOT GOING TO PAY DEALER $800 COST TO FIX MY FRONT DOOR LOCKS THAT DON'T GO UP OR DOWN. I JUST DO IT THE OLD FASHION WAY. RECENTLY MY PASSENGER FRONT DOOR HAS ADDED THE PROBLEM OF THE WINDOW BUTTON NOT WORKING, WHICH IS A POSSIBLE LIFE SAFETY OF A PERSON WHO COULD BE FORCED TO ESCAPE THAT WAY. TAKATA RECALL - NOW!!! STARTING IN MID APRIL 2018 MY DASHBOARD DINGED SHOWING PICTURE OF WHAT LOOKS LIKE DRIVER AIRBAG CIRCLE AND DRIVER IN A SEATBELT. IT WENT AWAY A MINUTE LATER. IT THEN STARTED HAPPENING SPARATICALLY TWICE A WEEK MAYBE. IN MAY 2018, IT BECAME EVERY DRIVE OFF AND ON THE AIRBAG ICON SHOWED UP AND WOULD DING ABOUT FIVE TIMES DURING THE DAY DRIVE STAYING LIT AT 2 MINUTES MOST APPROXIMATELY. NOW JUNE 2018, IT HAS BECOME AN AUTOMATIC OF LIGHT DINGS ON AND THEN OFF SEVERAL TIMES DURING A DRIVE THAT COULD RANGE FROM 5MINUTES TO 20 MINUTES. I STARTED TO OBSERVE THAT IT HAPPENS WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL ONLY SLIGHTLY RIGHT, BUT NOW THE LAST WEEK IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED SLIGHTLY LEFT OR RIGHT. I AM NOW TRULY IN FEAR OF MY BAG EXPLODING WHILE I DRIVE AND/OR IT WILL NOT GO OFF TO HELP MY INJURY I'M INVOLVED IN CRASH. I HAVE READ THE HTSA SIGHT OF RECALL AND COMPLAINTS AND ANOTHER OWNER'S STORY IS A MATCH SIMILAR TO MINE....THEY ARE COMPLAINT NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10986169. I HAVE TO GO TO THE DEALER THIS WEEK FOR AN APPT FOR YET ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE AND HAVE TO ASK THEM TO LOOK AT THE AIRBAG ISSUE......I BELIEVE NO MATTER WHAT THE MANUFACTURERS SHOULD PAY FOR FIXING ANY AIRBAG PROBLEM A CUSTOMER COMES IN WITH!!! IT SHOULD NOT BE PUT AS A BURDEN ON THE OWNER AND A TRUE HARDSHIP TO ME BECAUSE I HAVE TO BORROW MONEY TO FIX POSSIBLY.

THE SKYSLIDER FABRIC ROOF LEAKS OFTEN. THERE ARE WATER STAINS ON THE UPHOLSTERY. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO FIT CORRECTLY ANY MORE. MECHANIC SAID IT WOULD BE A COSTLY REPAIR SO BASICALLY HE JUST TAPED IT IN PLACE WITH DUCT TAPE. I DID RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT OWNERS ARE HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THIS, INCLUDING HAVING THE ROOF GO FLYING OFF THE CAR WHEN IN MOTION.

JUNE 2 2015 APPROXIMATELY 54000 MILES ON VEHICLE PURCHASED WITH 17,000 FROM JEEP DEALERSHIP. ENGINE SEIZED WITH OUT WARNING WHILE IN MOTION ON WAY HOME FROM WORK. NO SMOKE AND NO LIGHTS ON DASH TO FOREWARN ME. NO COOLANT EVER LEAKED ON GARAGE FLOOR OR ANYWHERE AT ALL. REPAIR COST 4,000 AND NOTHING COVERED BY CHRYSLER. HEATER CORE REPLACED TWICE ENGINE REBUILT AND AFTER REPAIRS WATER PUMP WAS LEAKING. HAD THAT REPLACED FOR FREE. ONCE AGIN HAVING ISSUES.

OIL PAN AND TRANSMISSION PAN HAVE RUSTED OUT AND STARTED LEAKING. I FEEL THE CAR IS NOT OLD ENOUGH TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THE MANUFACTURER PARTS. WE DIDN'T NOTICE THE PROBLEM UNTIL WE WERE GETTING AN OIL CHANGE BUT THE GENTLEMAN TOOK A VIDEO OF THE LEAK FOR US AND WHEN WE GOT HOME WE NOTICED THE ENORMOUS PUDDLE IN OUR DRIVEWAY WE HAD SOMEHOW MISSED.

THIS CAR IS NOTHING BUT A PROBLEM. THE ROOF LEAKS CONSTANTLY, SHORTED OUT MY ELETRONICS, THE ODOMETER DOESNT LIGHT UP, ISSUE AFTER ISSUE. TO MANY TO TYPE

TIPM FAILURE. THE CAR HAS SHUT DOWN MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING IN CITY STREETS AND ON HIGHWAYS. THE 2010 JEEP LIBERTY LOST ALL POWER HAD TO STEER TO THE SIDE TO AVOID CAUSING ANY ACCIDENTS. PRETTY SCARY EXPERIENCE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE PREGNANT AND CARES ARE ZOOMING BY 80 MILES PER HOUR.

THE DISPLAY LIGHT FOR THE "GATE" COMES ON, EVEN THOUGH THE GATE IS CLOSED. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON AS WELL. IF MY CAR IS LOCKED, THE ALARM WILL SOUND. APPARENTLY THERE IS SOME ISSUE WITH THE CENSOR IN THE LATCH. THIS IS HAPPENING TO A LOT OF 2010 JEEP LIBERTY'S. WHEN I WAS DRIVING THE GATE LIGHT CAME ON, ALONG WITH THE INTERIOR LIGHTS, HOWEVER, THE GATE WAS CLOSED. *THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED - MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED/SHUT OFF; *THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED - I WAS DRIVING ME VEHICLE.
