My air bag light indicator activated, and at the same time my horn stopped working!after having it checked out by a repair shop, it was determined that a faulty clock spring assembly is the cause of the problem.this assembly has been responsible for the malfunction of air bags in other 2006 jeep liberty's; however, recalls of this problem apply to other vin numbers (beginning with the letter k).i have been told by a jeep dealership that the cost of repairs will exceed $400.00, and that my vehicle is currently not on the recall list.how is it possible that clock spring assembly's are that much different amongst the different vin numbers?i am highly suspicious, and in the meantime i have been told that in addition to having no horn that my air bags would not employ in the event there was an accident.does someone have to be killed in a vehicle for another vin number to be checked out on the current listing?
I have had a couple of pretty bad accidents to front end of my jeep liberty and the air bags never deployed. Last accident was pretty bad. Vehicle pulled out in from of me and i t-boned them, i tried to stop but didn't have enough time. Every airbag in their vehicle deployed. I was driving down a state highway when vehicle pulled out in front of me.
While applying brake & shifting to reverse, car accelerated in reverse at high speed with no throttle engaged. Brake was pressed the whole time and pumped to stop vehicle, there was no braking. A pole was impacted crushing vehicle. No warnings of this issue. This has left the family in fear of ever driving a jeep.this was a jeep liberty 2006 with less than 70k miles. Well kept maintained vehicle.
Whenever the steering wheel moves between the 1 and 2' o clock direction the esp/bas light comes on and cannot be turned off without shutting off the engine.it has happened while parked and in motion at low speeds.i took it into my local dealer for a diagnostic and it was reported to be a faulty steering sensor/clockspring.which controls the esp/bas program as well as the deployment of the airbag should there be an impact.i took my jeep in early february and the part was placed on back order because there was none available in the nationwide inventory was expected at the earliest, mid-may.the recommendation is not to drive the vehicle.i followed up in early may and that date was shifted to august.i followed up in this past week and the date has been shifted yet again to mid-september.going on 7 plus months without my vehicle due to one part that is a safety issue and seemingly a common one looking at the other complaints filed on this site is ridiculous.i have tried getting this part through other after market places online and it can only come through jeep/mopar part authorized supplier.this needs to be looked at or recall needs to be issued to escalated to give this problem more visibility in orde for it to be corrected.
I was suffocating until the airbag exploded causing cuts to my hands holding steering wheel. A cut or slashabove my leftbrow abraisions to my nose cut on face and upper lip bruised chest for 5-6 weeks of pain & explosion blew out the back of a front tooth crown & loosened 3 other front teeth as well as cracking my bridge to the upper right if my mouth!received a recall notice 2 days ago regarding the airbag i was furious!nobody could understand how i sufferred all those injuries.my insurance did not cover medical. I was totally bed ridden for the first 10 days. I could barely breathe and or move!i did not go to emergency i couldnt afford to pay the bills. I will have dental march 2017.

Trying to figure out how ingit so cut up banged up bruised.
Chrysler case number [xxx] jeep libertyowner [xxx]:brought jeep vehicle into the dealership (bedard brothers ma.) in march of this year. Vehicle failed inspection (safety/airbag). Dealership determined that the vehicle needed a clock spring replacement. Chrysler is unable to replace this part (waiting @1 year). Unable to perform repair to vehicle because clock spring part is unavailable - can't be found anywhere - chrysler procurement failure. Car is un-drivable. This vehicle is one of four hundred across the country waiting for this part. Received absolutely no assistance from chrysler or dealership. Had to scrap car. Lost a lot of money.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
My daughter was driving and a truck in front of her stopped quickly causing my daughter to slam on brakes to avoid a collision but ended up rear ending the truck.her airbag deployed and her jeep had to be towed from the site.it has been in the shop since 4/28/14 and was repaired except for the clock spring which is necessary for the new airbag.we have been told that this part is no longer produced or manufactured by any vendor in the country.therefore, our jeep cannot be released to us which has caused a hardship on our family as well as a hardship for the shop manager as he cannot be paid until the car is released.because of this i believe that anyone driving a 2006 jeep liberty in the country is possibly at risk due to this device not being readily available in the proper supply channels.
I was involved in a roll over accident on july 8, 2012. I was heading south through a green light while a red van going west ran through a red light hitting me on my drivers side making me t-bone and roll three times. I was wearing my seat belt but none of my airbags deployed. My jeep was a total loss. I came out of the accident with a broken thumb and wipe lash.
Since i brought the car in 2008 at times the interior dash light and head lights flicker also the air bag light all the sudden stays on. I have intermediate no start at this time so i can't really use the car. I believe this might be an electronic issue.
Esp/bas, abs and skidding vehicle icon lights came on in the instrument cluster! the cruise control stopped working. This is the same issue we had on our 2007 jeep wrangler, which i filed a complaint with the nhtsa, which issued a recall on our jeep. The clock spring module, located under the steering wheel, controls, the abs, esp/bas, cruise control, horn, and air bag! this is a safety issue and should be recalled, like my 2007 jeep wrangler was!

2006 jeep liberty clockspring malfunction. Contact with dealership yielded info that no replacement part is available, yet the car is rendered unsafe without the replacement of malfunctioning part.owners have to decide whether to drive unsafely or park it until the part is available, which most people cannot afford to do.

1) front driver window regulator failed.2) front passenger door armrest detached when closing the door.
Yesterday, the rear passenger window slid into door, will not come up.can hear regulator but window is stuck in door.vehicle was parked on a residential street, all windows were up, and about 20 minutes later the window had disappeared into the door. I called chrysler but the vin is not part of chrysler's notice to owner's in 2010 regarding faulty window regulators.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty renegade.in the last 4 weeks, i have replaced 5 left tail lights, and 1 socket.the day after i had the new socket, the light went out.the mechanic, as well as the man at the parts house, have both said this is a bad problem with the liberties. What can i do?
There is only one window that will come down and it's the front driver side, they all came down and would not come back up. I replaced a regulator in the right back window and it went again so i just had them all pinned up. I've also had to replace the ac compressor twice and just put in 07/06/2018. I had to have a transmission put in 3 years ago. And now the truck is just shutting down when i come to a stop but it will start back up. I had a diagnosis test done and it didn't show any problems, but it's still shutting down and i don't know why. The mechanic said it is probably something electrical or has to do with the computer.

In nov 2014 as i was delivering mail in my rhd jeep liberty 06, my heat was on and my blower fan "blew up", blowing black smoke into the jeep from the vents and a burning smell came from the dash board. I took the jeep to my local garage in which time they tore the dash apart and found it had in fact "blew up". It now only runs on one speed (high). During the next few months (winter) every time i run my heater with the fan or the defrost my dash board goes haywire. Meaning gauges shut down, all alert lights go on and/or flash and all beeps, buzzers and noises sound. It continues until i turn the heat/defrost off. I took it back to the garage on numerous occasions in which they ran the scanner with 7 codes coming up. After a few hours of sitting it would just reset itself and codes would disappear. Everytime it rains now the dash board does the same thing. I have had 2 garages and several different mechanics look at it and can't figure out the problem. On april 25 i called chrysler to get my jeep in for the n46 recall and asked about the electrical issue and explained the situation. I told her it was a known problem in the jeep libertys. Her response to me was "in the last 25 yrs i've worked here, i have never heard of this problem." so i said i'd like it looked at while its there for the recall issue. Her response again was " you need to take it back to the garage that looked at it the first time, and you do know that we automatically charge $98 an hour for diagnostic checks." i was looking over my paper sent in the mail to me about the n46 recall today and found at the bottom of the paper it reads............"ask your dealer about the following notification. Our records indicate that your vehicle also requires repair for notification g03" i google searched jeep liberty 06 recall g03 and found.........this is a blower fan issue. And chrysler won't even look at it.
Went to start smoke came out from dash was parked in gargage truck is still in shop ins told me only reason they woul d cover is because is was a long coustomer thy only gave me 883 to repair there are at least 14 codes due to this don't know if they will reset if not i have to pay for repairs i do have fire protection on truckthis is allstate i will send paper work if needed at a later date i have nonealso waiting for check told for me to pay repair shop
2006 jeep liberty has defective windows that fall down and present a safety hazard.the 2007 jeep liberty vehicles have a lifetime warranty for the same defect.this is dangerous and should be covered by the same warranty.
My air bag light indicator activated, and at the same time my horn stopped working!after having it checked out by a repair shop, it was determined that a faulty clock spring assembly is the cause of the problem.this assembly has been responsible for the malfunction of air bags in other 2006 jeep liberty's; however, recalls of this problem apply to other vin numbers (beginning with the letter k).i have been told by a jeep dealership that the cost of repairs will exceed $400.00, and that my vehicle is currently not on the recall list.how is it possible that clock spring assembly's are that much different amongst the different vin numbers?i am highly suspicious, and in the meantime i have been told that in addition to having no horn that my air bags would not employ in the event there was an accident.does someone have to be killed in a vehicle for another vin number to be checked out on the current listing?
Both rear passage windows fail to work at all we had to tape up the windows andthe power make a grilling noise.
Abs system goes out which in turn makes the cruise control go out.then when you use the vehicle again the abs is on so is the cruise control but the brakes don't work well and grab.then when you are using the lights at night it dims for no reason inside and out.still waiting on the fix for the rear end fuel tank issue
Front window regulator issues. Today the driver's side window fell while stationary. A few months ago, the passenger side broke while driving. The rear passenger side window is sounding like it may go at any moment. I took apart the front passenger side when that window fell thinking it just fell off track. I discovered a piece of the regulator is broken. In doing research i see that this is a very common issue! this poses a safety hazzard!! there was a class action lawsuit in 2013 regarding this issue. Https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/lawsuit-news/41976-jeep-window-defect-class-action-lawsuit-certified-despite-sanctions/
3 out of the 4 window regulators in my jeep have mechanically broken inside the door. This needs to be addressed. It's not a cheap fix for me to keep paying for your mistake. I was going to buy another jeep, but not so sure anymore
I was leaving my bank and entered my vehicle and proceeded to start it with my key. My key turned and would not start my vehicle. My battery is about a 1 month old and i checked to see if there was a loose connection or corrosion (connection tight and no corrosion). I checked all fluids (fine), i just had oil, oil filter and breather filter changed a few weeks ago and they check all fluids. I turned lites, wipers, turn signals and radio on (worked fine), horn worked. With my key in the ignition, i had no problem turning the steering wheel. I opened my driver's door and saw it show up as "door" on the dash panel and noticed engine lite on. I depressed and held brake pedal down and was able to shift to neutral and back to park with no problem. I had a friend come and look at my liberty, and he checked and did everything i did.we both thought it was the ignition switch. I informed the bank that i was having car problems and have to leave it in their parking lot over nite. I had the jeep liberty towed to a jeep dealership in stuart florida the next day (12/12/2012). They informed me that the pin in the ignition switch broke off and fell inside and that they would need to replace the whole steering column. And it would cost over $1000.00.i was informed the next day (12/13/2012) that they could not locate a new steering column and that they would need to replace the steering column with a used one. Now it will cost $800.00. I researched and noticed that other jeep liberty owners have had problems with the ignition switch. I hope i am not being scammed. My jeep liberty has about 50000 miles on it.as i think about it, wouldn't the ignition switch need to be replaced and not the whole steering column? my jeep is still at the dealership and i hope to get it back on 12/17/2012.

I've had lower ball joints, bushing and control arms already replaced once in 2017 and now they are out again.i've been told by mopar that my 2006 liberty was made 5 weeks after the last one involved in the recall.this is inexcusable.i've had 3 window regulators replaced. This is a fatality waiting to happen if i drive. I started hearing and feeling the ball joints going bad about 2 weeks ago. I hardly have driven it since i work from home now. Can chrysler see all these complaints about the ball joints and still not add these 06 jeep's to that recall. This is not good business at all. Also just had front brakes done 1 year ago and they need replaced already. Ignition - my key will not come out of the ignition unless i push on the ignition cable. Please help me to get these problems fixed. This is unacceptable from chrysler.

In december 2020, i stopped at the post office to drop a letter in the outdoor box.i rolled down my window, deposited the letter, and drove off.as i was raising my driver side window, i heard a loud noise and my window dropped into the car door. It was another broken window regulator. It was 30 degrees outside and i had other errands to run.i had to drive around the city with my window half-way down in the freezing weather. Jeep had a recall in 2010 stating "we are extending the warranty period for window lift plate repairs because some vehicles have experienced repeat concerns with window components.if you have already experienced this window regulator concern and have paid to have it repaired, you may be eligible to receive reimbursement."when i was notified about the recall, i submitted receipts for the three incidents i had with broken window regulators that needed to be replaced.chrysler reimbursed me my full out-of-pocket expenses of $708.28 on january 24, 2011.now i need them to pay me $461.50 for the window regulator that was replaced on april 14, 2021. This is an ongoing problem, and most of all, a safety issue because of the distraction it causes to a driver. I recently read the following: distracted driving is a deadly problem'it led to 3,142 deaths in 2019, according to the most recent statistics from the national highway traffic safety administration (nhtsa).chrysler should extend the window regulator recall on jeeps and reimburse me $461.50 because this is a real safety hazard.what if i had been driving on the interstate at 70 mph and my six pound baby was in his car seat in the back seat, and his window fell in due to a bad regulator?that would be a major distraction to me and a definite safety concern for my baby.this is definitely not a parts problem.this is a huge safety issue.

Both rear, driver and passenger side power window regulator,. Failed.causing windows to drop while driving 1 month apart. Very dangerous. In motion, on a city highway very scary and dangerous.could cause accident or harm to passengers.
1.there are not events leading up to the failure.2.the rear drivers side window regulator.it has broken 3 times in two years.the consequence is that during times of extreme heat or cold, the window will stay down posing a health risk (in cold weather-cold related illness and in hot weather-dehydration) as well as a safety risk (outside debris entering vehicle at high velocities) to the rear passenger.3.the regulator has been replaced three times: twice by dealership and once by myself.the old parts are not available.

2006 jeep liberty. The rod linking between the key side of the ignition and the switch is broken. I have seen enough complaints online of the same year model to know this is a common failure that should be a recall. Also, the rod is not available, only the entire column and it is very expensive.
Both rear windows fell into door cavity multiple times, window would not roll up by regulator motor, must be lifted by hand after removing interior door panel. Both regulators were replaced twice within 18 months, did not correct problem, both windows continued to fall & require removing interior door panel to lift. Defect occurs while vehicle is either moving or parked, leaves occupants and contents unsecured and/or susceptible to the elements, theft, and other hazards. Only method available to secure windows was permanently tying in closed position.>>> this is an engineering and/or manufacturing defect of a specific part the manufacturer is well aware of multiple failures. <<<the defective part needs to be redesigned so it does not fail multiple times.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty that i purchased 6 mos ago with 25,000 miles. The back passenger window has stopped working. Still researching repair estimates.

The contact mentioned that the failure recurred several times. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 30,506.
The key cannot be removed from the ignition switch.tried restarting and shutting off vehicle, made sure it was completely in park and even wiggled the key back and forth. The key has been stuck in the ignition ever since. Nothing else is affected by this just cannot remove the key.
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.
Over the past few months, i have occasionally smelled a kerosene odor while driving my jeep liberty diesel.today, i read about a common problem with the fuel heater on the liberty diesel and so i checked the heater on my vehicle.the plastic insulator around the electrical pins of the fuel heater connector (on cable) is discolored and partially melted.doing further reading this evening, i discovered that this problem can also be a source of fuel seepage.although i didn't see any evidence of fuel around the connector, this is obviously an electrical problem and may have been also been the source of the odor i have been smelling while driving.i feel fortunate to have discovered this in a pre-failure condition and have not (yet) experienced a serious fuel leak, engine fire or engine stoppage due to fuel system failure,i was disappointed to learn that your agency was aware of this design problem back in 2007 (pe07041), but closed it with apparently no action taken.in my opinion, this condition certainly warrants a manufacturer's recall and repair.i have photos of the partially burned connector on my vehicle, should you be interested in seeing them.it is quite obvious that the electrical capacity of this connector is being exceeded and is a serious design flaw.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving at an unknown speed, the brake, check engine, and anti skid warning lights illuminated.

Since i brought the car in 2008 at times the interior dash light and head lights flicker also the air bag light all the sudden stays on. I have intermediate no start at this time so i can't really use the car. I believe this might be an electronic issue.
I have a 2003 jeep liberty sport and i was recently driving it when the entire system completely shut down.i was able to pull over to the side of the road.it restarted and i went a little further and it completely shut down again.i lost power to steering and was fortunately able to guide it off the main highway without any power.it would not continue running after that.it would start but then shut down right off.i ended up having it towed to a jeep dealership where i found out two sensors in the computer had gone bad.i had to pay to have the sensors replaced in addition to the tow.i am concerned about what would have happened if i had been on an interstate going at a high rate of speed and those sensors would have gone bad causing me to lose power in traffic.i wonder if some fatalities and injuries have resulted from this situation with other vehicles.i think its a very dangerous situation and jeep should be investigated to see if they are using defective sensors in the jeep liberty.i only have 65 thousand miles on this vehicle and i am concerned about taking it on any lengthy trips.i feel its a danger on the highways with these sensors.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact stated that the vehicle would not start when the key was inserted into the ignition and turned to the "on" position.the lights on the dashboard would illuminate, however the vehicle would not start.the contact also stated that the doors would not lock properly due to the failure.the failure recurred on multiple occasions.the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and a dealer for diagnostic testing and both stated that the key was not communicating with the module in the ignition or vise versa.the mechanic stated that the vehicle needed a new key or the ignition module needed to be replaced.the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure.the approximate failure mileage was 97,000. The vin was not available.
When driving i would stop somewhere get back in to the jeep go to turn the jeep on and nothing would happen. It wouldn't turn over. Mechanic said to pump the gas. Sometimes it would start sometimes it wouldn't. Key would get stuck in the ignition and you had a hard time pulling it out. Took it in to the mechanic for a day and they couldn't find anything wrong with it, no codes. Drive again jeep would do the same thing. Then when far from home got into jeep to go home and it wouldn't turn over, wouldn't start, couldn't jump it, but the battery and all electrical worked. Had to have it towed to the mechanic. After 2 days they found it to be a broken pin inside the ignition. A plastic piece wrapped around a metal piece broke. $800 later after towing,parts and labor. This is a manufacture defect or just plain cheap parts. Liberty's should be recalled too.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.she stated that she received a recall notice (recall # 07v089000) on 06/03/07 for the electrical system.the dealer stated that they would add her name to the waiting list; however, they did not inform the contact how long she would have to wait.the dealer stated they are only receiving two parts per week.there had been no failure to date.the current mileage was 12,000.
I have had my 2006 jeep liberty at the dealership 6 times in the 3 years i've owned it. I bought this car brand new and have had nothing but problems since. First the car would not come out of park, at the dealership they couldn't duplicate the problem and sent me on my way. After may months of this happening daily i had it towed on a flat bed to the dealership and they finally replaced a cable that connected the gear shift to brake after telling me i could just slam really hard on the brake and it would just disengage, i should just have done that instead of having it towed. (stupid me i guess) then i had the same abs traction check engine light problems i've heard and read many complaints about, first time taking it in, the problems stopped and they sent me home. Second time, i drove it straight there and made them look at it and drive it, they had my car for four days and call me to tell me there was nothing they could do because the codes were stored and not active reset the computer and sent me on my way. Now yesterday a year later and at 48,000 miles the car started again. I made them hook it up while the car was still running and the lights still on. What they don't tell you is that shutting your car off "stores" the codes. With the car still on, the codes were active and they found the problem. The body control module. However now it is out of factory warranty and i had to fight with the gm to get it covered. They still wouldn't cover it under factory but did cover it under extended warranty and waived my deductible. However i am still very upset that this has not been recalled, this should not be at my expense at all!!! i will never buy another jeep ever!

2006 jeep liberty with motor blower recall problems customer wants reimbursement for repairs**ccthe consumer stated he received a recall notice for his vehicle pertaining to the motor blower. The dealer stated the recall work had already been performed and there was nothing that they could do. The consumer stated that he contacted chrysler who informed him to get the vehicle repaired and supply them with the invoice for reimbursement.
In march 2009 i purchased a used 2006 jeep liberty and in august 2009 the driver side rear window stopped working just a loud clicking sound and then you can manual pull and push the window down.a new regulator/cable and window had to be installed. In march 2010 the same thing happened on the front drivers side window and the front passenger window. In july 2010 the rear driver side window stopped working again. Each time the windows stops working they need to replaced. Money out of my pocket, now my extended warranty is no longer in effect and the work that gets down only has a warranty for so long. There has to be a better fix then forking over $500+ each time a window stops working. It seems at this rate it's going to happened now every year. I am afraid to use the window at all. This needs to be addressed!!!!
I tried to make a u turn road was narrow so i had to back up and got stuck in the snow . I rocked it back and forth a few times and then we noticed smoke and fire coming out from under the hood .we got out of the vehicle and within 10 minutes the whole jeep was on fire!there was no damage to the vehicle when i got stuck not a clew why this vehicle would have started on fire.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4.the contact receivedrecall notice # 07v089000 (electrical system).she is # 91 on the recall repair waiting list.the contact has not experienced any failures at this time.the purchase date and mileage information were unavailable.
At this first occurrence, while pulling out of the dealership parking lot with the vehicle, the front passenger side window dell into the door. I took it back and they informed me they would fix it free of charge. This same problem with the window falling down occurred in june2010 about a year after purchase, affecting the right rear window, which had not even been used. I found out then that there was an ongoing problem with the window regulator in 2006 & 2007 jeep libertys causing this problem. The 3rd occurrence, with the left rear window in november of 2010, made me get online and file this report after carmax refused to honor their warranty on this repair and sent me to jeep who charged 100 dollars for it.checking the service history through jeep.com, i found that this vehicle had been in the shop for this problem at least twice with the previous owner.i would like for the chrysler company to take full responsibility for this and issue a recall, repairing the problem in a way that it stays fixed, rather than replacing the window regulator with more faulty parts as they have been doing. This can be very dangerous and distracting if it falls while travelling down the highway or, in my case, over 2 hours from home in freezing temperatures with a 7 month old baby in the seat by the window.
In response to all the complaints of abs light and brakes feeling like they won't work. I had this problem and was at the dealership a lot over the last 2 years. It turned out to be a burnt wire! i have not had any problems in the last 3 months (which is a long time for this car)!. Please tell your mechanic to check the brake sensor (abs sensor) wires!!

My friend was behind me and noticed my left rear signal indicator and brake lights were not working.i took my car to a shop for repair and was told the electrical system shorted out and melted the components.the shop owner has had other jeep liberty owners come in for the same problem in their cars.he thinks it should be a recall issue.i need to know if this is true.
I was on the highway came to a stop at a traffic light the jeep stalled and would not restart (no crank, no start). The traffic light was on a incline of a hill,the jeep was too heavy for one person to push up, and rolling backwards into oncoming 60+mphtraffic was not a option. A group of good citizens helped push the jeep to safety. Battery was fully charged, but security light was on, preventing a restart.in addition when the key is turn to the start position the check engine light does not light up as normal. Plus ecm is not connecting to the scan tool. Scan tool displays connection error. The ecm failed. Before the failure the jeep ran perfect.
Jeep would not start -had lights, radio, horn etc. But it would not turn over at all. Towed to dealer. Tech performed diagnosis and found the problem - steering column had to be replaced.

Dt*:the contact statedthe brakes failed five times at low speeds.there was an accident causing minor damage to another vehicle.the dealer could not duplicate the problem.also, the check engine light illuminated.

The sunroof drains into the passenger compartment and on to the fuse panel and freezes.i have to replace at $822.00. A service bulletin was issued in 2006 addressing this issue the drain issue was repaired by dealer during warranty in 2007.a frozen fuse panel can cause an electrical fire inside the car.
My 2006 jeep liberty will not start or crank. The computer does not show any codes. The battery had power, the relays are fine and the starter is fine. When you are in the jeep and try to start it, it does nothing. Its like you forgot and left it out of park and tried to start it. The jeep does not click or even attempt to start. No one seems to know what's wrong with it. I love my jeep and it had been well taken care of. I have had numerous issues, and recalls. I still love my little liberty. If you could just help with a diagnosis, i would be forever grateful!
Put the jeep in park and could not remove key. Had to disconnect cable to remove key, with cable disconnected i was able to shiftthrough gears with car turned off and key out. Hooked cable back up and keys stuck in ignition.

2006 jeep liberty clockspring malfunction. Contact with dealership yielded info that no replacement part is available, yet the car is rendered unsafe without the replacement of malfunctioning part.owners have to decide whether to drive unsafely or park it until the part is available, which most people cannot afford to do. This is a widespread problem that chrysler is not addressing.

My rear driver side window stopped working and would slide down until it slid down so much i had to pull it up just for it to fall completely into the door the next day. I called the dealership and they wont fix it because it was manufactured before the recall date. I have two small children and cant drive them anywhere because its to cold and the wind is to much. I can barely afford food much less a $240 window repair.

The clock spring on this jeep has broken and has been broken for more than two months. This has disabled the horn, abs system, cruise control, vehicle stability program and most importantly the driver's airbag. This is a known problem to jeep and they are doing nothing about it. They just continue to say the part is on back order. This is unsafe and someone must force a mandatory immediate solution.

Have now had to replace all four power window regulators.75,000 miles
I have two (2) jeep liberty's both 2006 (1) renegade, & (1) sport, both vehicles have had the window regulator's fail, (2) - window regulator's failed on the renegade, (1) on the driver's front side window, the regulator had to be replaced on 02/12/11 & again (1) on the driver's rear window, the regulator had to be replaced on 05/18/12 this was on the 2006 jeep renegade.

Date by 20 days, why is it always the windowregulators because it's a plastic part and that's why it keeps failing, that's just bull i have spent over 1200.00 dollars on repairs on windows regulator's alone & it's the same part each time all 4-windows, i used to be a great fan of jeep, i've owned jeeps for (20) years now, but i have become really disappointed with my vehicle's, the first time it happened i was on the highway driving at 65 mph when the window suddenly opened, the wind ripped through my vehicle started to blow things around so bad that i had to pull over and tape my window up so i could make it home, and i'm not the only one, alot of jeep liberty owners have had the same thing happen to them and had to replace the window regulators, thank you

Key will not release from ignition on steering column due to restricted (degraded range of motion from a subassembly with weakened spring) movement of automatic transmission shifter interlock cable.vehicle can not be put in park (shifter freely moves through p r n d 3 2) and key will not make the last little turn before release.seems to be an extremely common occurrence among owners, based on cursory online research.requires replacement of entire center console shifter assembly with an "upgraded/improved" mopar part to fix the known high failure subassembly (but not available for purchase separately).inability to place vehicle securely in park would seem to be biggest safety issue, not to mention vehicle security compromised with key perpetually in ignition. ..updated02-10-15 updated 8/28/2017

When i parked my 2006 jeep liberty and attempted to turn the key and pull it out of the ignition, the key would not come out.it would go no further than the lock position.it appears that the shifting cable that reads when the car is in park and enables one to remove the key had failed and was not reading that my car was actually in park.i had to press the cable down in order to remove my key.i did a google search for the problem and it appears to be a common problem for the 2004-2006 jeep liberty.now my shifter does not stop between gears, it simply slides through them without having to press the button that would normally lock them in place.i can shift from reverse to park without pressing the break and without pushing the button.in order to pull my key out i have to take the cover off and press down on the cable.now that i noticed it is a common problem with other jeep liberty's, i think a recall is in order.

My liberty has 3 recalls, 2 having do with big safety issues- fire and tires detaching. I first called planet dodge (miami, fl) for service appt.; gave vin and advised of recalls- surprise! when i arrived for my appointment; they said the parts were on back order! today i called tamiami jeep to make an appointment and was told 1)it's very dangerous as tires may detach 2) they have some parts, but not some bolt, if that is required! question- if these are mandatory recalls and on such potentially safety compromising parts- how can the parts be on back order for 3 months!!(this will be my first visit to tamiami for service appt-but was already advised not all parts available- what's the use of making a appointment if they is a nationwide of a part to repair a recall?what happens if my tires detach or my car has "underbody fire" as per my most recent notice?i would appreciate a reply via email and i would like somebody to investigate how service departments can run out of parts that have mandatory recalls. I was not told at planet dodge how serious this was and have been driving around waiting for the parts to arrive.(lower ball joint).

My new 2006 jeep liberty caught fire while driving on i-15.the insurance investigator indicated it was caused by a wiring problem and/or connector to the blower fan under the passenger side dash board. The car was towed to the salvage yard and investigated by gmac insurance.
While driving my 2006 jeep liberty, for no apparent reason, the esp, abs, and brake lights all sarted flashing at once. Since then, my vehicle would constantly lose power and stall out when attempting to accelerate. Diagnostic check indicated a defective speed sensor. It was replaced, and the issue corrected itself somewhat for a couple of months. However...the same exact issue returned. It progressively became so bad i had to remove the abs fuses in order to even drive the vehicle, thus creating an equally dangrous situation. My jeep is out of warranty, of course, and i've read tons of complaints of the exact same problem with this vehicle, so i am basically (dangerously) waiting for a recall to occur.
Ac compressor had to be replaced i did not know there was a recall on it.. Also the computer went on it and that was repaired on 10/11/13...i was told the spark plugs were wrong. I have never had a tune up or my spark plugs changed! unless the wrong ones were in there when i bought this brand new in september of 2006. Or possibly the chrysler dealership did it to get a repair. Safford in springfield va. I will not stop perusing this until i have answers.[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Abs, esp, brake light, battery and check engine light, come off and on i have took it to jeep at two different locations, neither place has been able to resolve my problem, i even drove with tech in the car, he saw the light come on and was unable to determine the cause.
This is my third complaint for the same on -going problem. The abs/bas, esp lamp will come on when going 45-50 mph or medium acceleration. At various time the engine will lose power. Jeep liberty has been taken back three times to dealer. They said they are unable to dupilcate problem as the problem must ne active. The codes are present, but not active. I've written chrysler/jeep with not help or assistance. Vehicle is still under factory warranty.
My anti skid, abs, and esp lights are on. The cruise control is not working. Also, at about 50 mph, my front end acts up. I am told that this is a known problem with the clock spring.
This is my second time in the last two weeks for the same problem. My last complaint was the abs/bas, esp lamp coming on. My 2006 jeep liberty was at the dealership for 1-1/2 weeks. The dealer says the codes are stored, but they must be active to locate the problem. The day after picking up my jeep liberty, i was driving on the vehicle on the highway at 45-50 mph, the same lamps came on. Now i afraid to drive the vehicle for fear of the brake system. My vehicle only has 24,888. I recently wrote to chrysler to complain.
The clock spring on this jeep has broken and has been broken for more than two months. This has disabled the horn, abs system, cruise control, vehicle stability program and most importantly the driver's airbag. This is a known problem to jeep and they are doing nothing about it. They just continue to say the part is on back order. This is unsafe and someone must force a mandatory immediate solution.
Intermittent problem with abs/electronic stability system setting warning lights on dash and disabling abs/esp.warning lights illuminate, and turn off randomly.malfunction has now lead to failure of abs, causing loss of vehicle control while braking.abs cycled without need, and improperly, causing uneven braking and violent, uncontrolled swerving of vehicle.required removal of abs pump fuse to make vehicle drivable again.this occurred under normal braking from ~45mph to a red light.had this occurred at freeway speeds, or under an emergency stop, there would have almost certainly been an accident.owner forums report this as a common problem.
While driving and evasive move was made to prevent an accident. The stability control did what it was suppose to do, the light lit to signal it was activated, then the esp/bas light came on and the vehicle became locked in a limp mode. I pulled to the side and restarted the car. The two above mentioned lights went out and the check engine light lit. This is the third time this has occurred. One of the time it happened on the tech repairing the jeep. Many parts and software updates have been installed.
At 44,143 in dec 2009 i had 4 new tires and rear disc pads replaced. In july 2012, about mileage 54000, while driving in town, the left rear wheel speed sensor failed causing loss of abs, esp, and cruise control. I had dealer repair.at 67,642,in april 2016, i noticed the rear disc rotors were caked with a crusty rust and it appeared that the brake pads were worn out..the rear brakes could not have been working.the dealer put on new rotors, calipers, pads, and flushed the system.the rusty rotors could not be turned to reuse, the calipers were both "stuck" and the brake fluid was "black".i also had the front rotors turned and new pads installed.the abs, esp, and cruise control still lights up on the dash for a minute then goes out by itself, leading me to totally distrust the system.i have never seen brake rotors so rusted in my 65 years.
Dashboard lights for abs, electronic stability control, and traction control came on and stayed lit and i was able to reset after turning the motor off.
Went to start smoke came out from dash was parked in gargage truck is still in shop ins told me only reason they woul d cover is because is was a long coustomer thy only gave me 883 to repair there are at least 14 codes due to this don't know if they will reset if not i have to pay for repairs i do have fire protection on truckthis is allstate i will send paper work if needed at a later date i have nonealso waiting for check told for me to pay repair shop
Whenever the steering wheel moves between the 1 and 2' o clock direction the esp/bas light comes on and cannot be turned off without shutting off the engine.it has happened while parked and in motion at low speeds.i took it into my local dealer for a diagnostic and it was reported to be a faulty steering sensor/clockspring.which controls the esp/bas program as well as the deployment of the airbag should there be an impact.i took my jeep in early february and the part was placed on back order because there was none available in the nationwide inventory was expected at the earliest, mid-may.the recommendation is not to drive the vehicle.i followed up in early may and that date was shifted to august.i followed up in this past week and the date has been shifted yet again to mid-september.going on 7 plus months without my vehicle due to one part that is a safety issue and seemingly a common one looking at the other complaints filed on this site is ridiculous.i have tried getting this part through other after market places online and it can only come through jeep/mopar part authorized supplier.this needs to be looked at or recall needs to be issued to escalated to give this problem more visibility in orde for it to be corrected.
The pain on the outside roof is peeling, i do live in a state where the roads are salted however, there is no salt used on the top of the vehicle, this, while not a new vehicle should not be peeling the way it is. The front windshield had a severe chip & the installer was barely able to sand this area down enough to be able to seal the windshield. I have done some research & this is a very common problem along with the rear window regulators both of which have had to be replaced. There are problems with the emergency break & the jeep dealership gives one reason for the abs, esp among other wheel and breaking issues. And now the one thing that jeep is finally supposed to be doing something about rather than me having to put more money into this vehicle for, the gas tank recall seems to be a ridiculous fix, and i have been on a waiting list for this for months and still have not been able to get it in to get this fixed. I saw a news story that said that chrysler was being mandated to fix these very poorly made vehicles. I would like to know how this particular vehicle does not fall into the other recalls when it has been having the same issues. I have been having breaking system issues as long back as 13 months after i purchased this vehicle.
Hello,i bought a 2006 jeep cherokee sport in romania kj / le85 (the liberty 4x4 jeep for europe), from casa auto romania: / 7 february 2007.my technical problems with this car, still in warranty (2 years warranty in romania) are:-the esp/bas warning lamp comes on continuously with engine running, the light remains on at speeds greater than 30mps. First, this problem was randomly appearing, but now it appears each time i am driving on highway with speeds greater than 30 miles/h .-2 times my engine lost power for no reason;-the fuel consumption urban: ca 17 l / 100 km;-the fuel consumption extra urban: ca 12 / /100 km.my car is for the second time in the service in the last 6 weeks for the same problem ? electronic stability control, the primary safety system of this vehicle.first time, after 3 weeks they said they fixed the problem. I brought it back next day with the same problem. My car is still in service.my great problem is that my authorized dealer is unable or don't want to fix these problems, waiting to expire the warranty of my car ? in few days. They don?t want to offer warranty for the pieces they replaced, they say the warranty of this pieces replaced expires with the warranty of the car. I'm afraid this problem is unsolvable for chrysler llc, and my car is an unsafe car.also, i want you to help me with the serial number of the components of my car: wind screen, battery, pistons,?.i found this links on internet with 2006 liberty jeep owners with the same unsolvable problem.http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=6836&sid=9f0a35885eee4cb496bf50e84284d105http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=10382http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/?f=8.
Abs/bas, esp and traction control continues to come on. The vehicle is still under warranty and the dealer is very cooperative. They continue to work with chrysler and jeep, but the problem continues. This will be the third time back to the dealer. Vehicle only has 24,000 miles.
Abs system goes out which in turn makes the cruise control go out.then when you use the vehicle again the abs is on so is the cruise control but the brakes don't work well and grab.then when you are using the lights at night it dims for no reason inside and out.still waiting on the fix for the rear end fuel tank issue
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.
I recently purchased a new 2006 jeep liberty and have had repeated problem with the rollover protection program safety system. Here's what has been happening: i would be driving down the street in a straight line, say 30 mph, and the system warning lights would go on, then my anti-lock brakes would begin firing because they think that the car is about to roll over. After a few seconds, this would stop. But after that, sometimes the brakes locked up altogether. Other times driving went back to normal except for the warning light staying on. It's a little scary and more than a little dangerous for your brakes to lock up this way. The car was in the shop for weeks. I spent hundreds on rental cars. And i had to replace my back brakes at 16,000 miles. I believe that was due to this system malfunctioning. This is an ongoing problem. This is a vital safety system, but the dealer and jeep don't really want to address this issue.
I've to replace the rear tail light assembly 4 times, it keeps blowing out the brake and tail light.i've also had to purchase 5 a/c compessors for this truck and the abs, traction light stays on.
Jeep would not start -had lights, radio, horn etc. But it would not turn over at all. Towed to dealer. Tech performed diagnosis and found the problem - steering column had to be replaced. Total cost $798.00. I was told that the steering column and ignition switch were problem issues in this make and model but no recallwas in place to repair. Ignition switch recall replace in 2006 jeep liberty manual transmissionbut not in automatic transmission
Esp problem, i been working on the breaks, master cylinder, calipers, brake control,sensors and i don't have a clue what to do.
While i was driving the abs bas esp stopped working and the lights came on. We were living in ft wayne indians at the time and without those features this jeep is flat out dangerous. I had the wheel speed sensor replaced twice but that wasn't it. One dealer rebuilt all four of my brakes and purged the system. That didn't work. I paidfour different dealerships over 3800$ plus rent fees. It still is t fixed.
After a service at ferman chrysler in new port richey, florida ...my anti lock brake system lights came on and when i was traveling in a congested area the vehicle just started coming to an extreme stop without my control or even applying the brakes.
Esp/bas, abs and skidding vehicle icon lights came on in the instrument cluster! the cruise control stopped working. This is the same issue we had on our 2007 jeep wrangler, which i filed a complaint with the nhtsa, which issued a recall on our jeep. The clock spring module, located under the steering wheel, controls, the abs, esp/bas, cruise control, horn, and air bag! this is a safety issue and should be recalled, like my 2007 jeep wrangler was!
Abs/esp electronic stability control problem. Vehicles started braking causing uncontrollable swerving on highway, which my newborn twins in the back seat. This seems to be a big issue with jeep. Vehicle will brake hard on a tire while traveling at highway speeds thinking that there is tire traction slippage.
The clock spring on this 2006 jeep liberty has been broken for more than two years. This has disabled the abs system, vehicle stability program andthe driver's airbag. This is a known problem to jeep and they are doing nothing about it. They just continue to say the part is on back order. This is unsafe and someone must force a mandatory immediate solution in the last 2 months alone since may 2015 the backorder has grown from 500+ to 700+ and now chrysler won't even return my call
Turning left the car lost control spinning around 360 degrees. It was around 9pm. No traffic no cars around, no crashes.
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.
Both rear passage windows fail to work at all we had to tape up the windows andthe power make a grilling noise.
Abs, bas/esp, tcs indicator lights illuminate, vehicle loses power, brakes are applied ( most likely right front as car pulls to right) releasing throttle cancels the braking. As throttle is reapplied sameaction is repeated. So far it has only occurred at speeds< 35 mph. Should it occur in slippery road conditions it most likely result in loss of control.in researching the problem on the internet, it seems to be or is becoming a more common occurence which fca is not addressing. If you read the other complaint of the same problem it dates back a few years, yet there doesn't seem to be anything done to correct it. Some complainants say they have been unable to have it corrected even at jeep dealerships, others report it's something called the clock spring that is causing the problem and the parts to repair it aren't available. Having just recently had fca's gas tank solution corrected, i hope a fix for this won't take as long. I neglected to say this was not a one-time event in as much as it happens now on an almost daily basis. A local shop checked for fault codes but there were none in memory; i have it scheduled for further tests 09/16/2015.

On two different occasions while driving on the highway at 60 mph to 70 mph, the engine of the vehicle shut down completely, without warning, with the loss of all steering or control over the vehicle.on two other occasions, the engine shut down completely, without warning, with the loss of any steering or control over the vehicle, after exiting the highway and entering city traffic.that is a total of four engine shut downs or stalls while driving the vehicle. The dealer can find nothing wrong with the vehicle. We just bought the vehicle, and this is nerve-wrecking and dangerous to say the least. The engine shuts down after driving long distances, and has happened from driving distances of approximately 90 miles to 160 miles. If you wait approximately one hour, the vehicle will then start up again and run. But it will stall again with complete loss of power.others on the internet have also experience this problem with jeep 3.7 and 4.7 powertech jeep motors.our jeep is a 3.7 motor. This appears to be the same problem as jeep experienced with jeep commander and jeep grand cherokee models, which were recalled. This situation can obviously be life threatening. Chrysler jeep should not be allowed to put life treating vehicles on the market and these jeeps must be recalled. We ask for your help in this matter before someone is seriously injured.
6/9/2018 around 11:30 am engine - starts and stalls without warning.was driving and slowed down to merge with traffic to enter the highway and engine shut down no warning.it started back up; however, the car behind me almost ran into the back of me - car behind me started blowing the horn continuously; although, flasher was turned on immediately.it occurred 3 more times within an hour - 2 times when attempting to park the vehicle and one time when on the highway and had to slow down as traffic came to a near halt.very scary situation.about 5-6 months ago this occur about 5-6 times in heavy afternoon traffic due to an accident.thought it was the gas; now i see it is occurring again. Has to be a bigger or more serious problem.others are experiencing the same problem just look online.can not afford to allow car to idle too long. Same vehicle where abs, esp/bas, traction/anti-skid lights remain on even after installing a new clockspring and all four abs sensors. Do not have any pictures to upload.

I put my car into 4wd for a minute and came to a complete stop and took it completely out of 4wd. It stayed stuck in 4wd and after burning up my engine it broke my front passenger side axle and now i have to pay $800 for repairs. I have never used my 4wd and we are stuck in a snowstorm in the mountain close to portland, oregon and i cant get anywhere.
Recalls on this car were not taken care of before being sold to the current owner. Information about such recalls were not disclosed before or during the time of sale. Small issues arose during the first few months of ownership. Recently ,in january 2016 bigger issues have come about and now the engine must be replaced. This has all happened while the vehicle has been in motion.
Vehicle started exhibiting a cyl #3 misfire showing code p0303 and all the signs included in tsb 09-007-06. Was also diagnosed by the dealer and having defective cylinder valves and valve locks. I have contacted chrysler about this problem and they refuse to accept any responsibility for this even though they have a service bulletin out about it. This issue is causing the vehicle to produce more emissions and waste more gas while it runs incorrectly also causing premature damage to the catalytic converter. Any help the nhtsa can provide to help rectify this matter would be great help as jeep wants to hide from all of there defective parts behind new owner fiat.
While driving the vehicle stopped developing power.wide open throttle was applied, the vehicle decelerated to approximately 30mphuntil i was able to pull over.the engine was running extremely rough and would not generate power.i shut it down, waiting a approximately 1 minute and restarted the engine where it ran normally.this problem has happened approximately 5 times in the past year.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start and the key was unable to be removed from the ignition. The contact also mentioned that the gear shifter was able to shift to neutral without starting the vehicle. The contact called tyson chrysler jeep dodge (1 sw frontage rd, shorewood, il 60404, (815) 741-5530) and was informed that the vin was not included in any recalls. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by the dealer or an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that the vin was not included in any recalls. The failure mileage was 120,000.
On three separate occasions vehicle stalls upon engaging drive or reverse from park or neutral. The shift is made, the vehicle begins to move, then suddenly it stalls, the engine shuts off. Park or neutral must be quickly reselected to restart vehicle. Danger of being in an intersection when this happens it high. Dealer says it is a known issue, with no solution.
This problem pertains to the 2006 jeep liberty crd 2.8l diesel.under acceleration from 55 mph to 65 mph, the vehicle stalled and would not go over 3,000 rpm. When the vehicle slowed to 45 mph, it would not increase speed, effectively in a "limp-in mode" . After the vehicle stopped, the engine was shut off for about 2 minutes then restarted. The vehicle traveled for approximately 5-7 miles with no problems then the incident happened again.the vehicle was towed to the jeep dealer where it was purchased and after two weeks the dealer basically gave up trying to fix the car. The issue has not been fixed and as i scan the internet i find this is a common yet dangerous problem with this vehicle.
While cruising a 50 mph not on crews control the engine started racing with out pressure on the accelerator.when stopped in natural the engine went to 4000 rpm and surged +- 500 rpm.
My 2006 jeep just stop working, came out of work and would not turn over,ecm box went bad on my jeep.this is a common problem per my mechanicthe on board ( brain ) computer ecu, ecm and ec box must be recalled or else this issue is on the purchasers like us. Fords had the same problem back in 96.your part for may 2006 jeep ecm can not be located anywhere in the united states, how is this possible????????
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.
Parked vehicle after driving 20 min. Going about 70mph.after turning the car off, the car started steaming.i popped the hood to find coolant and water overflowing from the coolant reservoir.i got the car towed to the local mechanic who after doing extensive diagnostics to find the leak within the system.took the manifold off the engine and realized it was caused by bad/ cracked heads on the engine connecting to manifold.a lot of this type of engine has this problem, seen by the local auto mechanic in vail valley, colorado where jeeps are common.this is a manufacturer problem.
When pushed to speed up at a fast rate and upon approaching 65mph or faster the service engine light flashes slowly. My mechanic found the code reader saying a misfire was happening.when that light flashes it starts to shake pretty bad. Determined that cylinder 1 has low compression. Only way to find out for sure what to do next is to tear down the motor which i do not have the money for that. Sad how waistful people are forced to be with vehicles. Its still pretty new!!we took good care of this jeep maintaining it correctly since we got it with only 37k miles and has not had any problems till now. So this was a shock!before 37k miles i am not aware of this particular jeep's engine repair history.also this same jeep had the clogged fuel line causing the tank to spill out while fueling up when it was not full yet.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving 60 mph, the air conditioning blew hot air and steam emerged from the engine. The vehicle stalled.

I tried to make a u turn road was narrow so i had to back up and got stuck in the snow . I rocked it back and forth a few times and then we noticed smoke and fire coming out from under the hood .we got out of the vehicle and within 10 minutes the whole jeep was on fire!there was no damage to the vehicle when i got stuck not a clew why this vehicle would have started on fire.
I was at the car wash and i was running my a/c and everything was working great. All of a sudden it was hot air coming out of the blower which has only been working in speeds 3 and 4. It is extremely hot right now in america. Today in fort wayne it's supposed to be 105 and tomorrow 106. I have taken excellent car of this jeep and serviced it regularly. This has come to great shock to me and my wife as we have just moved to the fort wayne area indiana. We are down two vehicles with this heat. Her car blew a timing chain and it was also a chrysler product. We couldn't afford to fix the engine for that and the cost for the a/c is 866.00 for the jeep. I have read a lot of blogs on others losing their a/c in this year of jeep. I don't want to have a stroke or worse and i can't afford to fix a six year old jeep.
H. This car has required engine oil to be added every 50 to 100 miles without any evident smell or sight of leaking oil, also torque converter needed replacement experienced deceleration of speed while driving at 50 mph.
1. Rust corrosion around the 3rd brake light cause brake light to fall out. It has to be held up by duct tape and is hilding up my inspection.2. Check engine light is reading implausible fuel volume level. Fuel gauge drops after 10 minutes.
3 times while driving on the saw mill parkway this morning in stop and go traffic, while coming to a stop the vehicle started to accelerate out of control.the brakes could not control it.the first time i put it in neutral and the engine reverted to idle speed and i was able to continue normally.a few miles later it did it again as i was coming to a stop in heavy traffic.this time when i put it in neutral the engine raced at full speed as if it was being floored.i had to turn off the key.when i restarted the engine it ran fine for a few miles until i was exiting the highway.again when i slowed to a stop the engine raced at full revs.going into neutral did not help.turning off the key fixed it.at the end of the day after work the vehicle behaved normally. This jeep has done this 3 times in the past, in january 2009, feb 2012 and october 2014.
While driving about 55mph on 95 south (4 lanes of trafic), the front of jeep jerk, shuttering, loud noice, immediately lost power engine light came on. I pushed on emergency blinkers and strong armed jeep on an angle to the side of the road. Emergency assistance tow required. Dealer reporting catastrophic engine failure , now confirmed by second regionial consultant provided by chrysler earlier this week. Agreed to replace engine. Concern that if chrysler 3.7 engines have a historical problem a recall should be issued.
After fueling and starting the vehicle, it fails to accelerate for several minutes. Also when fueling it doesn't stop and will overflow onto the ground if you don't keep track of how much gas you are putting in. Another issue is that the vehicle shakes very badly when idle.
This is my second complaint. Getting ready to return my 2006 jeep liberty (4x4) to a jeep dealership for the 8th time.engine hesitates, loses power and check engine light constantly comes and stays on.they have already done the following:replaced o2 sensors, plugs (three times), run numerous diagnostics, replaced left side values, replaced left side cylinder block, replaced right side cylinder block and also replaced the left side cylinder block they replaced the time before, replaced timing housing gasket, and who knows what else.chrysler and mechanics can't solve the problem.all my research says this engine is faulty and needs to be recalled.i have found numerous complaints about this engine and vehicle.something needs to be done.after thousands of dollars spent, nothing has been resolved.after over two months with 5 different chrysler case managers, they only want to give me $350 for this problem.no consumer should have to go through this, especially when the taxpayers have bailed out this company.
Engine light would flash for 5-10 seconds and engine would hesitate.after this occurred 2 or 3 times the engine light would stay on. Mechanic replaced o2 sensor per engine code.problem continued.went to chrysler dealership.they replaced plugs and did diagnostic.problem continued.went back to dealership two more times and they now said that a nhtsb said liberty was having value problems.they replaced left side values.two days later same problem continued.took back to dealership, they called chrysler and were told to replace cylinder block.replaced block.one day later, same problem.vehicle back to dealerhip for the 6th time and no solution.contacted chrysler, have had 5 different case managers and no satisfaction, just the run around.

They don?t want to offer warranty for the pieces they replaced, they say the warranty of this pieces replaced expires with the warranty of the car. I'm afraid this problem is unsolvable for chrysler llc, and my car is an unsafe car.also, i want you to help me with the serial number of the components of my car: wind screen, battery, pistons,?.i found this links on internet with 2006 liberty jeep owners with the same unsolvable problem.http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=6836&sid=9f0a35885eee4cb496bf50e84284d105http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=10382http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/?f=8.
2006 jeep liberty was leased in february 2006.in may, the car lost power steering, power brakes and completely cut off the engine while driving on the road, unable to restart.the dealership could not figure out what was wrong with the car.sent the car home with us after keeping it for 5 days and assured us that the car was fine. August 3, 2006 same exact problem happened while driving the car, no power steering, power brakes and car completely cut off the engine, car would not start again.car is in dealership. They are still trying to figure out what is wrong with it.
Ac compressor had to be replaced i did not know there was a recall on it.. Also the computer went on it and that was repaired on 10/11/13...i was told the spark plugs were wrong. I have never had a tune up or my spark plugs changed! unless the wrong ones were in there when i bought this brand new in september of 2006. Or possibly the chrysler dealership did it to get a repair. Safford in springfield va. I will not stop perusing this until i have answers.[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Description : the vehicle is a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4 equipped with the 2.8l crd (diesel engine). From an intersection at a complete stop, i proceeded to turn left into another street. I accelerated to approximately 15 mph when the vehicle suddenly lost. All power and would not accelerate. The engine began to hesitate and the vehicle could not go faster than 5 mph. It could only limp along at this speed while i attempted to get off the road. This created a serious condition for other drivers to attempting to avoid my vehicle until i could reach a section a that allowed me to pull-off the road. The vehicle then stalled when i came to a complete stop. I attempted to restart the vehicle after a few minutes, and it ran in a normal manner. I subsequently continued my trip without any other incidents. This is a very disconcerting defect because it exhibits no signs that allow the operator to take preventative actions to avoid possible accident during road use.

I purchased a 2006 jeep liberty 3.7 liter with 34,000 miles.my wife was driving the vehicle home from work when the jeep began to stall and the vehicle speeds up on its own.the check engine light came on and is still on and i can know longer drive it because i am afraid of it stalling in an intersection or on the highway.i took it to the local shop and they said they did a compression test and that is had bad valve springs and valves and maybe needs new heads. I am not the only person with this issue many people have had this problem and jeep has done nothing.this seems like a major design flaw and a major safety problem i hope it doesn't take someone getting hurt for a recall to be issued. Thanks

Every once in a while vehicle's engine dies at stop sign/ red light or when making a turn. May go for several days without the problem, and then it happens several times in one day. Seems to happen more on hot days, in the afternoon. Considering replacing crank shaft and camshaft position sensors. Have found several reports online with the same problem.
This is my third complaint for the same on -going problem. The abs/bas, esp lamp will come on when going 45-50 mph or medium acceleration. At various time the engine will lose power. Jeep liberty has been taken back three times to dealer. They said they are unable to dupilcate problem as the problem must ne active. The codes are present, but not active. I've written chrysler/jeep with not help or assistance. Vehicle is still under factory warranty.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty. The rear left window fell.i never received any recall letter stating there was a problem with the windows.april 2013 i came out of work to find my diver side window down. Called the dealership and they informed me that there was only two months before the recall was over.last year i started having problems with my check engine light coming on.i was told that it could be 1 of 2 things plugs or o2 sensors. I had the plugs and the upper and lower bank o2 sensors done 9 months ago. My check engine light has gone on and off over the last 7 months.i can't afford to do the sensors every time the light goes on.i have had fuel spill problems that started about a month ago. When filling my gas tank the pump doesn't shut off fast enough and there is an overflow of gasoline.not only is this a fire hazard but with the price of gas its a lot money wasted. Also two weeks ago my jeep has been losing power while driving.

This is a new liberty crd (diesel) with 610 miles that was accelerating from a border patrol checkpoint on i-8 east of san diego.while accelerating to ~65 the vehicle suddenly lost power in heavy freeway traffic and slowed to 35 mph even though the engine was running good.this sudden loss of power caused overtaking vehicles to swerve violently to avoid an accident including at least 2 panic stops.when the vehicle was safely on the shoulder (engine was idling fine) the car was shutdown and restarted which apparently recycled the computer and cleared the condition.vehicle has performed fine since that incident.
The vehicle is a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4 equipped with the 2.8l crd (diesel engine). From an intersection at a complete stop, i proceeded to turn right into another street. I accelerated to approximately 15 mph when the vehicle suddenly lost all power and would not accelerate. The engine began to hesitate and the vehicle could not go faster than 5 mph. It could only limp along at this speed while i attempted to get off the road. This created a serious condition for other drivers to attempting to avoid my vehicle until i could reach a section a that allowed me to pull-off the road. The vehicle then stalled when i came to a complete stop. I attempted to restart the vehicle after a few minutes, and it ran in a normal manner. I subsequently continued my trip without any other incidents. This is a very disconcerting defect because it exhibits no signs that allow the operator to take preventative actions to avoid possible accident during road use.
My jeep liberty with the diesel engine performed well for the first three months, then upon accelerating to enter a freeway it sputtered and the check engine light came on.the dealership repaired it by replacing the egr valve and associated components. The same problem occurred on in another 4 months, and again 4 months.every time the egr valve was replaced.the last occurrence was in november 2006.
Engine jerks when running.
2006 jeep liberty.consumer writes in regards to suspension system failure.the consumer stated he granddaughter drove the vehicle to the store, however, when she returned, the vehicle wouldn't move. When she tried to backup, the right front suspension collapsed.the vehicle was towed to the dealer. The service writer stated the underside looked rusty. An inspection revealed, the right front control arm had collapsed. The brake line and wheel speed sensor were replaced. Also, the serpentine belt was cracked and had to be replaced.
First incident, several weeks ago: within two minutes after starting car, attempted to enter highway with a left turn. With light pressure on throttle, engine ran to high rpm. Was able to steer into center turn lane while shifting to neutral. Engine returned to normal mode of operation, and i proceeded directly to my dealership. Dealership kept car for several days, finding nothing ( service said they checked the computer and called chrysler), they said car was safe to drive.second incident: last saturday (nov. 10, 2007) my wife used car to go shopping. Approximately four minutes after start, engine again oversped: she pulled over and put the car in park and shut it down. When i arrived, attempted a restart; engine went to a high rpm so i shut it down and left it parked while i went to the dealer. Service was already gone for the day so i talked to the manager, who set up a tow through chrysler corp. Dealerships service couldn't get to it until wed. Evening (nov.14). Mechanic found the same problem but can't find why. They called chrysler, but no help.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty sport diesel. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 mph, she heard a loud screeching noise and the vehicle would no longer accelerate. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who stated that the turbo charger had failed and needed to be replaced. The part was on backorder so the vehicle was not repaired. The contact called the manufacturer and filed a complaint. The current and failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty crd. The egr failed at 17k miles. It was replaced under warranty. It failed again at 52k miles, i paid for that replacement. Now the engine is plugged with carbon from the egr system. Each time there is a failure of the egr, it will eventually cause the engine to suddenly "loose power" and run as if in a "limp" mode even thought the obd diagnostics fail to acknowledge such. This is a big problem with this vehicle that chrysler will not acknowledge. It causes air pollution and a safety issue as the ability to operate the vehicle normally is greatly hindered without warning. Consumer is asked to pay $2,300.00 for a temporary repair for the factory's poor design.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact stated that the "epm" warning indicator light illuminated.the vehicle has not been inspected by a dealer.the current and failure mileages were 5,000.
Failed egr valve- 2nd time in under 47k miles.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4.the contact stated that vehicle would surge forward when shifting into any gear and the vehicle would also loose power abnormally.the egr (exhaust gas recirculation) valve melted, causing a burning smell to release into the vehicle. In addition, the gear shifter would shift out of park independently, causing the vehicle to roll away.the contact also stated that the rear passenger side door handle became defective, making it impossible to open the vehicle door from the interior of the vehicle and the abs, esp and traction control lights were illuminated on the instrument panel.neither the dealer nor the manufacturer were notified of the failures. The vehicle was repaired.the failure mileage was 20,000 and the current mileage was 101,000.....updated 06/18/12 the consumer also stated there was a problem with the control arm on the vehicle and because of the widespread problem a recall as issued. The consumer was then informed the recall was old, and her vin was not included. The vehicle would loose power suddenly after driving forward, the windows would make a dragging noise, even though the dealer replace, the wheel speed sensor was replaced, the interior door handle on the passenger side was inoperative. The check engine light illuminated several times. Updated 06/22/12updated 6/25/12 updated 06/29/12
Replaced 3 windows that would not stay closed (common problem) . Went to dealer for an oil change found out that all5 (or 6) break hoses were about to burst and car was unsafe to drive. No fault of my own but jeep has "no idea" how it happened!kept my car for 4 weeks! now the key gets stuck in the ignition every time i turn off the car! car's a lemon!!!
The windows in my 2006 jeep liberty keep falling down inside the door. I have had this happen to three of the four windows. One window i have had in the repair shop three times (dealership) to fix the same problem. The last time the problem was fixed, but now i can't open the door from the inside, which to me seems like a safety issue. My wife and i were driving back from a trip in the middle of a heavy rain storm when all of a sudden the window fell down inside the door. It started hailing which was a big safety issue for our children riding in the back seat. I am just thankful that what could have been a terrible accident did not happen.the dealership has told me that the problem occurs because of a bad motor inside the door panel. The cheapest i have found to fix this problem is $300 per window. This is ridiculous when the problem keeps occuring!
Both rear regulators have quit working, leaving my jeep and myself vulnerable to others being able to easily enter the vehicle. We have replaced one and will be replacing the other next week due to the cost. As if that wasn't enough, the sun roof just quit working and stuck partially open. I hardly ever use it, so it did not break due to use. We took it into the dealership and it will cost $1300.00 dollars to repair, which we cannot afford. Also, fuel quite often overflows when fueling, spilling gasoline down the side of my jeep as well as spraying out onto the person fueling. It does not matter how slowly we put the gasoline in, it still overflows.
2006 jeep liberty limited 4x4,all 4 of the windows have had regulator failure causing the windows to fall down into the door. These have all occurred at different times and even without anyone being in the vehicle. One of the recently replaced regulators that had already been repaired once have failed again while my wife was at work. She came out to leave work in the dark and as she went to drive off she noticed a window in the rear was down. She did not put it down it failed and fell on its own while inside of her place of employment again. This is a hazard that would have allowed someone to enter her vehicle and either steal from the vehicle or attack her. So all 4 power windows have failed and now they are starting to fail again. Warranty will expire this october and we fear we will be left with constant repairs and she constantly worries about her safety knowing it will most likely happen again.rear gate also had a loud rattling noise coming from it and after it was supposedly fixed by dealer under warranty wife could not get the gate open to load groceries. Upon inspection by me i found that the chrysler jeep dealership just wrapped the gate latch striker with electrical tape instead of replacing the defective latch causing the door latch to bind and not open.this vehicle needs to either be recalled or enforce a mandatory tsb on a working revision of new parts.
I received a recall notice from the chrysler group llc. N46 / nhtsa 13v - 252. (rear structure reinforcement) we took our vehicle to our jeep dealer here in owensboro, ky. About 4 to 6 months ago.they told us they did not have the correct parts in stock at that time and they were on order. We checkedback frequently at the dealer in which still no parts have arrived for our vehicle. On the week of 9/14/2014 - 9/20/14 we received the same recall notice from chrysler again. We contacted the dealer again and still no parts have arrived. My complaint: this has gone on long enough we need this recall order fixed now. We feel we can't even get in this vehicle and be protected comfortably. Can anyone help us out please from this authority?
I have a jeep liberty 2006, last year the passenger window regulator broke and then almost exactly a year later the driver window regulator broke. I have to replace the window and regulator (because of an "upgrade" in the regulator part you have to buy a window as well). From last march to this march they have doubled the price of the regulator making the repair even more costly to consumers.
2 back window motors don't work
Several things 2 list: vehicle = 2.8l diesel jeep liberty, 2006. The codes are p0093 & u0121. 1st) it says a large leak in the fuel system. Something in the emission system. Has happened several x's. I've had it towed 4 this. Engine runs rough & quits @ x's. No power. Changed fuel filter & did air leak test in the fuel return system / tech at dodge jeep dealer. No air in return line found. Problem still exist on an intermitant & sporadic x frame since june 2010. Last x occurred = 8-20-10ish. 2) low boost from hole in the waste gate actuator vacum tube from improper routing at factory. Found by tech at jeep dealer. 2 visits many hours & $$$. Egr valve replaced @ same time. Big $'s. 3rd) belt squeak from bearing going out in a/c compressor /dealer tech??? 3rd visit. Need a/c compressor he says. Previously changed tensioner pulley for this problem but did not fix problem. They now say its the a/c compressor???4th) right rear electric window motor failed 10-2-10. Replaced motor/regulator assembly 10-7-10= $172.99. I should be reimbursed for all parts & labor for these damages. I paid a lot of $ for a supposedly good vehicle but it keeps failing.5th) part time 4x4 light on dash says its in part time 4x4 when in two wheel drive. Haven't repaired cause of $.please note that because of low power i was almost in several accidents because of the low turbo boost at acceleration. There could be injuries or fatalities in the future if this happens to someone else that's not mechanically inclined and not aware of reduced engine performance of a turbo failing slowly like mine because of a small hole in the waste gate actuator tubing from vibration on the housing bracket by the tube. Was replaced and rerouted by dealer tech.
On three separate occasions vehicle stalls upon engaging drive or reverse from park or neutral. The shift is made, the vehicle begins to move, then suddenly it stalls, the engine shuts off. Park or neutral must be quickly reselected to restart vehicle. Danger of being in an intersection when this happens it high. Dealer says it is a known issue, with no solution.

The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that both driver and passenger tail lights had overheated which caused both housing plastic lens to melt from the bulb. The contact also noticed that the wiring harness was also overheated which contributed to the failure. The contact took the vehicle to john elway's claremont chrysler dodge jeep ram(620 auto center dr, claremont, ca 91711) where she given a diagnostic fee to the vehicle inspected, the contact declined the diagnostic fee. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 170,000.

Left rear taillight has gone out - replacing the bulb doesn't work. Looks like the housing/socket is partially melted. Also, left front parking light has gone out and changing the bulb has not resolved that either.
My friend and i just finished having lunch at restaurant. It was snowing really bad, i brushed snow off and i pressed the left passenger button to let window down so that i can see and the window would not come back up. My friend and i got out of the jeep and pushed window up with our hand. But when i drive it falls down, really bad during the summer time.driving to work one day and the esp, bas and tcs light all come on. Eventually went off but after 4 mins lights came back on.
Vehicle was in motion. A co worker told me my tail light was out and the next day i looked at it and tried to replace the bulb but the bulb was melted and broken inside the lens. The bulb was melted to a piece of plastic inside...to some type of fin. This is the driver side tail light. I also had the same problem with the passenger side tail light assembly earlier this year. I replaced the bulb 3 times before i figured out what the problem was. Now the same problem has occured with the driver side tail light assembly. The bulb melted to that fin inside the assembly and could not be removed to replace the bulb. I had to replace the entire tail light assembly again, which is very expensive at $130 each plus the bulbs.this could have caused a fire...or a wreck since my brake lights did not work until this tail light assembly was special ordered and relaced, which took a couple of days to receive.this problem seems like a defect.
My daughter was driving and a truck in front of her stopped quickly causing my daughter to slam on brakes to avoid a collision but ended up rear ending the truck.her airbag deployed and her jeep had to be towed from the site.it has been in the shop since 4/28/14 and was repaired except for the clock spring which is necessary for the new airbag.we have been told that this part is no longer produced or manufactured by any vendor in the country.therefore, our jeep cannot be released to us which has caused a hardship on our family as well as a hardship for the shop manager as he cannot be paid until the car is released.because of this i believe that anyone driving a 2006 jeep liberty in the country is possibly at risk due to this device not being readily available in the proper supply channels.
Left tail light burned out and melted the tail light. It continues to go out and is a safety problem.
Headlights flicker when accelerating on dash lights as well, when driving at night when both dash and headlights are used. Also, when the lights are on the heat is also running, it acts like there is a short in the system.
Both taillights melted. The inside cover around the bulb melted onto the bulb. The outside cover melted to be concave in shape. I removed the melted inside pieces and replaced the bulbs. I later cracked the right taillight and replaced it. The outside cover of the new right taillight has melted to be concave but still works. In may of 2011 the left taillight brake light bulb was out. I replaced the bulb but it did not work. I replaced the socket and it still didn't work because it was melted so bad. I finally ended up replacing the taillight. The parts guy said there was a notation that if you were replacing the taillight because it melted this new taillight was much better. So, they know the taillights melt but are unwilling to pay for the replacement.
I've to replace the rear tail light assembly 4 times, it keeps blowing out the brake and tail light.i've also had to purchase 5 a/c compessors for this truck and the abs, traction light stays on.
Check engine light on and off
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 mph at night, a clicking sound emitted inside of the vehicle and the headlights began to illuminate intermittently. The failure recurred twice a week on average. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the headlight assembly switch was replaced. The failure continued after the repair was performed. The current failure was not repaired because the service warranty expired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
My rear tail lights and stop lights bulbs keep burniging out.the rear passenger housing has been replaced free by the dealer.since then i have had to replace the same housing in less than two years. The rear tail lamp and brake lamp bulbs do not burn the filament the light bulbs actually explode inside the housing or meltthe housing.the plugs that hold the bulbs are scorched.i have both the rear lamp and plugs to show the defect. I am not the isolated case: most liberty owners and some grand cherokee owners have had the same problems. My second complaint is a fuel leak at the connection of the fuel heating element. The filter head where the fuel filter is attached also has a heating elemnt..the electic plug connection at the head leaked fuel onto the connection.i observed when the ignition was tuned on, the fuel leaked and vaporize as it was beingshorted and heated. I disconnected the electric plug., filled the female receptacle with fuel tank epoxy and rubber plug for good measure. Will be replacing scorched connection and filter head as soon as possible.i will keep all defective parts for your inspecton upon your requestthank you.
My friend was behind me and noticed my left rear signal indicator and brake lights were not working.i took my car to a shop for repair and was told the electrical system shorted out and melted the components.the shop owner has had other jeep liberty owners come in for the same problem in their cars.he thinks it should be a recall issue.i need to know if this is true.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that while driving 20 mph, the vehicle emitted a rubber burning smellfrom the tail lights.

2006 jeep liberty crdfuel filter separator heater element evidence of pending failure and leak and fire hazard; browning of plug contact and air in system due to some sort of slow leak. This makes element overheat in aforementioned air - as it was designed to be submerged in fuel - and will melt thermoplastic plug element fitting, causing leak, which will dribble onto hot areas below - if gases not ignited by heating element first in air/fuel space created by air leak -and potentially cause fire and death.
While doing routine maintenance under the hood of the vehicle i noticed diesel fuel leaking out of the fuel heater connector located in the fuel filter housing. I pulled the connector off and found it partially damaged by excess heat at the connector terminal and wet with fuel. I left the connector disconnected from the housing until i had the dealer replace the filter housing assembly under warranty. The burned/damaged connector was not replaced by the dealership when the housing was replaced. I don't have the old housing, but i could take a picture of the damaged connector/terminal thatwasstill on the vehicle.also, i noticed that there was excess air in the filter housing before the replacement of the housing. After the housing wasreplaced there wasstill excess air, but not nearly as much as before. While the connector was off,and i was waiting for the replacement part the vehicle would not start 2 separate times because air was entering through the connector. I had to pump the primer that was installed on the filter housing to get the vehicle started both times.
Air leak in fuel system. Requires regular purging. Could lead to an unsafe breakdown.
Read info online on www.lostkjs.com about issues with the fuel filter housing and fuel heater puck wire on my 2006 jeep liberty crd (diesel).i checked mine and noticed diesel fuel on the wiring and burn marks on the wire connector.this seems like a potential fire hazard.due to the fuel leakage and scorching of wiring i will have to get both the fuel filter housing and plug replaced.based upon the number of issues i have read about this seems like a design flaw that needs to be recalled.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty diesel. The contact stated that when refueling to capacity, fuel would leak from the vehicle. The failure ceased for a short time but later recurred. The leak would not occur when the fuel tank was first filled, but would leak over time. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for inspection or repairs. The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 52,094 and the current mileage was 63,900.
This problem pertains to the 2006 jeep liberty crd 2.8l diesel.under acceleration from 55 mph to 65 mph, the vehicle stalled and would not go over 3,000 rpm. When the vehicle slowed to 45 mph, it would not increase speed, effectively in a "limp-in mode" . After the vehicle stopped, the engine was shut off for about 2 minutes then restarted. The vehicle traveled for approximately 5-7 miles with no problems then the incident happened again.the vehicle was towed to the jeep dealer where it was purchased and after two weeks the dealer basically gave up trying to fix the car. The issue has not been fixed and as i scan the internet i find this is a common yet dangerous problem with this vehicle.
Over the past few months, i have occasionally smelled a kerosene odor while driving my jeep liberty diesel.today, i read about a common problem with the fuel heater on the liberty diesel and so i checked the heater on my vehicle.the plastic insulator around the electrical pins of the fuel heater connector (on cable) is discolored and partially melted.doing further reading this evening, i discovered that this problem can also be a source of fuel seepage.although i didn't see any evidence of fuel around the connector, this is obviously an electrical problem and may have been also been the source of the odor i have been smelling while driving.i feel fortunate to have discovered this in a pre-failure condition and have not (yet) experienced a serious fuel leak, engine fire or engine stoppage due to fuel system failure,i was disappointed to learn that your agency was aware of this design problem back in 2007 (pe07041), but closed it with apparently no action taken.in my opinion, this condition certainly warrants a manufacturer's recall and repair.i have photos of the partially burned connector on my vehicle, should you be interested in seeing them.it is quite obvious that the electrical capacity of this connector is being exceeded and is a serious design flaw.
On a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4 every time gas is pumped into the tank (from several different filling stations) gas over flows spilling over vehicle and over the ground posing a health and environmental risk. I have read where this is a common problem among chrysler vehicles with no support from the company.
2006 jeep liberty diesel with 14,500 miles. Engine dies 10-15 seconds after start. Fuel system must be primed with pump on fuel filter head in order to restart engine. Fuel is seepingfrom the fuel heater electrical connector located on the filter assembly. Dealer replaced fuel filter assembly as a warranty repair.
Uncontrolled acceleration 2006 jeep liberty crd.while stopped at a red light, engine idling, foot on the brake, my engine started to wildly accelerate.i held the brake as hard as i could and the rear wheels started spinning and burning runner and the entire car was 'jumping'.after a few seconds of this i put it into neutral and turned off the engine.when i restarted it moments later it was fine.i brought it to my jeep dealer in mt kisco ny but they couldn't ind anything wrong.it hasn't done it again.there was nothing jamming the gas pedal.the car was at a stop and idling with my foot on the brake when the engine suddenly started racing on it's own.
Our jeep liberty diesel as been running terribly lately, and then stalled and would not start.after looking further into the cause,i found that the fuel filter head had a fuel leak at the electrical connection for the fuel heater.it appears that the heater is over heating and melting the non-metallic filter head where the connector penetrates and seals.the connector that plugs into the filter head is black around one of the pins.i have left the heater unplugged, and for now have sealed the leak with a fuel tank epoxy patch.
My rear tail lights and stop lights bulbs keep burniging out.the rear passenger housing has been replaced free by the dealer.since then i have had to replace the same housing in less than two years.

Numerous mechanical problems all dash lights come on at once between 15 - 50 mph dealer replaced body control module lights still come on now has more problems after repair by dealer. Several recalls on this leased vehicle running up miles back 2 dealer rear window fall down repaired motor tried 2 quit 3 times could be dangerous in traffic seems it loses prime on fuel system . Also excessive tire wear on front tires had it aligned myself was out from factory 10 deg. I have no confidence in dealer 2 fix since i have more problems after last visit.

After purchasing my diesel jeep i noticed a shuddering in the transmission at about 55-65 miles an hour.considerably worse with you decelerate after acceleration. In a construction hold on traffic my vehicle idled for about 10 minutes.when i was cleared to move forward i put the gear selector in drive.the jeep stalled.it took me a several attempts to restart the motor. I have done extensive research and have come up with one answer. Air is in the fuel. I have taken it to a jeep dealer in ozark alabama and in dothan alabama.chrysler tells them that the air in my fuel system is ok. I demand to know what is a safe level of air allowed in the fuel system.no one has measured the amount of air in the fuel system.please tell me so i can have it measured because i have volumes. I am afraid it will stall out on me again.i have had a few close calls when the jeep hesitated and choked after a long light and a train crossing,
My wife contacted me this morning complaining the jeep wouldn't start. I walked to where she was and checked out the engine. I noticed fuel around the fuel filter mount; i bled the fuel system and the vehicle started. I got it home and check a little further and noticed fuel leaking out of the fuel heater plug. I unplugged it and a small amount of fuel dumped out. I took it to the local dealer and had them order the part. The technician said it's ok to drive the jeep until next week when the part arrives. Email update (6/25/2007): "...my replacement heater is overheating and leaking again."
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.while driving between 50- 65 mph, the vehicle hesitated without warning.the contact smelled fuel inside the passenger compartment twice.the dealer inspected the vehicle and found no failures.the failure mileage was 34,000 and current mileage was 38,792.
Today my 2006 jeep liberty diesel would not start.i discovered that the fuel filter had lost prime and there was diesel fuel leaking from the heater plug connector that is connected to the fuel filter housing.i unplugged the connector and noticed that the yellow plastic plug head showed noticeable signs of scorching (brown discoloration) around the pin holes.also, when i disconnected the plug there was a hiss of air escaping from the system.no doubt this air leak is what caused my initial problem of lack of fuel pressure causing the vehicle to fail to start. However, the bigger concern here is that the system is leaking fuel and the heater seems to be shorting out its electrical components which is a very dangerous combination.
This incident started in 2008 and at the time thought it was a failure of the gas pump at the gas station but now the problem is more common and happens weekly, recently splashing gasoline into my eyes which required fluid eye rinse and medical attention. Every time i fill up the tank on my 2006 jeep liberty, the gas begins to overflow and splashes back, out of the fuel inlet opening. This in turn sprays fuel out at a force, and then onto the ground. Recently this happened and sprayed fuel into my eyes, on onto my clothes. Not only is this a safety issue, but also a major fire hazard. It is my understanding after talking with the dealer that this is a known problem with jeep liberty's in that the fuel tank's inlet check valve is faulty which in turn fails to automatically shut off the gas station fuel pump in time. This is my formal complaint that i was injured due to a known, faulty part/component of the jeep liberty.
When filling up my gas tank, the fuel will spit back out. This happens at the beginning, middle, or end of when i'm fueling up. It's more like a geyser of fuel spilling back at me that gets all over me, the car, and most dangerously, all over the ground of the gas station. It happens nearly every time i fill up. It doesn't matter what gas station i am at, or how i'm positioning the hose. This has been happening for over a year, but has gotten increasingly worse recently. Very dangerous, frightening, and bad for the environment.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that nhtsa campaign number: 13v252000 (fuel system, gasoline, structure) exceeded a reasonable amount of time for repair. Fourteen months had passed since the contact received the original recall notification for this defect. The contact made numerous attempts to have the vehicle repaired, but the manufacturer and dealer stated that the parts were not available. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact had not experienced a failure.
Everytime i fill up my gas tank on my 06 liberty it over flows.
Every time i fill up with gas (regardless of station / how i hold nozzle / speed at which i refuel / etc), the tank overflows with a lot of gas all over the vehicle and the ground and sometimes on me.then the interior of the vehicle stinks of fumes for a long time afterward.this has been going on for almost as i've had the vehicle but it getting worse over the past year.
When i put gas in my jeep it burps gas out. This has been happening since i bought the jeep in 2012.i've looked online and this has been happening to other people withother jeeps owners. I called chrysler and they told be that it was not a recall on my jeep model.
Both rear regulators have quit working, leaving my jeep and myself vulnerable to others being able to easily enter the vehicle. We have replaced one and will be replacing the other next week due to the cost. As if that wasn't enough, the sun roof just quit working and stuck partially open. I hardly ever use it, so it did not break due to use. We took it into the dealership and it will cost $1300.00 dollars to repair, which we cannot afford. Also, fuel quite often overflows when fueling, spilling gasoline down the side of my jeep as well as spraying out onto the person fueling. It does not matter how slowly we put the gasoline in, it still overflows.

Whenever the vehicle is filled with fuel, when the automatic shutoff occurs, fuel flows back out of the fuel tank onto the vehicle and the ground!
When fueling the tank the gasoline pump will not turn off when the tank gets full causing a significant amount of gasoline to spill down the side of the vehicle and onto the ground as well as splashing all over the handle and the person holding the handle.this happens every time the tank is filled regardless of weather or location.

The gas tank won't shut off when filling gas, and gas spews out everywhere on the ground.there seemed to be no remedy for this except to change the gas tank which i had a dealership do... It works fine now.
Whenever i fill up the gas tank with gas the filler tube over flows with gas and does not allow the fuel pump to cut off automatically.this has happened since the vehicle was new.gas gushes out of the filler tube and down the side of the vehicle and creates a large pool of gasoline on the ground.this action can be easily repeated.one must stop the fuel pump before the tank is full and not allow the pump to cut off automatically.
I received a recall letter in 2013 recall number n46 and nhtsa campaign number 13v-252. I have not received further notification to take my jeep in to be repaired. I called my local dealer who said they have not received any information or parts to repair our jeeps. This is a safety issue....why has it taken a year to get the parts to the dealers to fix our jeeps?when filling the vehicle with gas, the pump's handle will suddenly and forcibly stop (as though the tank were full) and gasoline will spit out of the fuel opening, despite the fact it is gallons away from being filled to full capacity. This happens with every different gas station's pump handles, so to be clear, it is not an issue with the pump or handle, or the individual's ability to pump gas correctly; it is an issue with the gas line of this vehicle and the indicator or regulator or whatever part is defective.
2006 jeep liberty fuel overflow hazard.when refueling our 2006 jeep liberty, fuel overflows after fuel pump automatic shutoff is triggered.this overflow now occurs every time vehicle is refueled.no one is attempting to "top off" the fuel tank.the overflow causes a quantity of fuel, that i estimate at two to four cups, to spill on the side of the vehicle and onto the ground.this fuel overflow flaw creates an extreme fire hazard and environmental contamination risk.this flaw occurs in the wrangler model of chrysler jeep products also, where a recall has been issued.the same flaw is occurring in many thousands of jeep liberty's as is evident by the huge volume of owner statements posted on many websites.go chrysler jeep in englewood, co quoted a repair cost of $2031.00 to fix the problem.when the overflow flaw first occurred in my jeep liberty, it was an occasional problem that was impossible to predict and without a recall notice, consumers are unaware of this hazard.this flaw creates a safety hazard for the person refueling the vehicle and anyone nearby.the fuel spilled has caused property damage in the form of ruined clothing and shoes, and possibly damage to the vehicle as fuel runs down the side into crevices around the rear wheel and axle.this spilled fuel could reach the hot exhaust pipe and explode.why would the manufacturer cover this flaw under warranty for one make and model, the jeep wrangler, and not cover the identical problem for another make and model, the jeep liberty?it's the same problem created by the same manufacturer.

Every time i try to fill the gas tank, it overflows.it doesn't matter what station or pump.if i use the automatic lever on the pump, the gas comes squirting out all over my car, my shoes, and the ground. Even if i don't use the lever, and squeeze the pump handle myself, the pump still does not shut off before overflowing. It is a problem with the car, not the gas pump or the operator.
Have not been able to fill up my gas tank completely since this past fall. I purchased this vehicle august 2013 from an authorized chrysler/jeep dealership. Please note that this is not user error at the gas pump. I have owned at least a few different cars and understand how to use a gas pump. I've filled the jeep liberty atleast a dozen different gas stations and it does it every time and the gas sensor at the pump will not shut off. I have had no choice but to have westbury jeep service center on january 15,2013 to look at the vehicle since the gas overflow is a potential hazard.
Fuel spews out of the fuel filler opening after the gas pump shuts off causing fuel to spill on to the vehicle body (both painted and plastic areas), on the ground, and on the person filling the jeep. This condition has existed for a year before filling this complaint. Apparently this is a wide spread issue across all jeep lines. The only fix available is complete replacement of the fuel tank (estimated $1700.00) at the owners expense. Model 2007 and up jeep liberty's have a recall for this issue, but not my 2006 per my local dealer.

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.

2006 jeep liberty sport overflows from the gas tank when filling gas. This happens at various gas stations. The automatic shut-off at service station pumps do not sense pressure to shut off. This causes fuel to spill on side of car, ground and possibly the person filling the tank. This is an environmental hazard, fire hazard and could cause harm as an inhalant.

For the last 2 months every time i fill up my jeep liberty 2006 gas spills out. This is frustrating especially with the price of gas.i estimate that i lose at least a gallon each time. When i first got the jeep i noticed that you could not "top off" the gas which each fill. But now it just spills out all over.help!!
Fuel tank inlet check valve not stopping gas from surging out of the tank and all over the ground/person/car.this occurs even after the gas pump as 'clicked off' and is not filling the tank.chrysler as extended the warranty on model year 2007 & 2008 jeep libery's, but this is a 2006 with the same problem.

2006 jeep liberty. Consumer request reimbursement for recall repairs. *tgwrecall# 13v252000.
Contacted the chrysler dealer in hendersonville, nc, egolf motors 888 810 1729 and chrysler corp 800 853 1403...no one can provide correction info date. Both told me they do not know when parts will be available and/or correction made, the recall notice was received in mid-september 2013 and no progress yet. Spoke with a nhtsa rep, [xxx], who was helpful, kind, thrifty, etc and hopefully your report to chrysler has them quaking in their boots and a repair will be scheduled and completed by the end of the day.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Received a safety recall in december of 2013 . Contacted local dealer and was told part was not available. I believe areasonable amount of time has passed(almost 3 months) .i contacted local dealer again today and they say chrysler has not released part at this time. How long does it take ? recall notice states that chrysler intends to inspect my vehicle and install an oem trailer hitch where appropriate.
When filling the gas tank pressure builds in the tank and forces the gas back out under pressure creating a spray the covers the person filling the tank, and side of the vehicle. This is caused by a broken / clogged fuel tank vent. This occurs everytime you fill the tank. Trying to fill the tank at a low fill rate doesn't improve the situation.
When filling the gas tank to full with the pump nozzle set to automatic, the tank spits out 1/2 to 1 gallon of gas before the nozzle disengages.this is not a problem with the gas pump.the same pump was used on other cars without incident.this happens on this jeep liberty regardless of what pump is used.on occasions, this excess fuel has gotten onto my clothes which poses a safety hazard.i've investigated this on the internet and many jeep owners are having this problem.i no longer use the automatic nozzle setting but this is unsatisfactory because others filling the tank on my behalf may not be aware of this.some areas of the country don't allow the use of self-service pumps.

Hi,i have owned this jeep liberty since 2008 and bought it with 2700 miles on it. The problem i have and many others have is with the filler neck on the fuel tank. It overflows gas every time you fill. Even if i slow it at the approx time the meter says it should be getting full. The internet research shows that the new gas tank assembly from jeep has a new/fixed safety valve in the filler neck that is supposed to help with a rollover accident but apparently slaps shut when filling causing the gas puke on clothes, shoes, ground, etc. It is not good for the environment, pocket book, or other people at the gas station as spilled gas is a significant safety concern. It is a chronic failure and jeep should do something. Sell part at loss/severe discount, replace for free would be nice, acknowledge the problem is a big issue and stand up and fix it even though it is not the classic, "this causes accidents and we better do something so we don't get sued" type of safety recall. Thanks in advance for the help.

Received a recall notice over a year ago. Dealer continues to say parts are not available. This is not a timely repair and every day this is delayed is another opportunity for a rear end collision to impact the gas tank. Coming to believe that with the volume of recalls issued the nhtsa does not have the ability to enforce these repairs.

I am asking for help in getting my 2006 jeep liberty safety defect taken care of by the local dealer.

When filling the gas tank, the fuel delivery system fails to stop delivering fuel after tank is full; thus resulting in fuel overflowing the tank and onto the car exterior, ground, etc.this occurs regardless of the speed at which the fuel is delivered into the tank.this has occurred throughout our ownership of this jeep, and the incident date represent the approx. Date of purchase.this same issue was occurring in the 2008 jeep wranglers (of which i own one) and was subject to a recall.upon the recall repair (new tank, etc), the problem was solved.prior to the 2006 jeep liberty, we owned a 2003 jeep liberty, which did not have that issue.
Every time i fill up my vehicle at a gas station gas comes pouring out after the tank is full. The gas nozzle clicks off and gas begins to pour out all over the side of the vehicle and the ground. I have tried manually pumping as well as automatically pumping with the same results. I have attempted filling at multiple gas stations with the same outcome.this did not occur the first year that i owned my car, and only began in the past couple months. This is a hazard to the environment and a potential danger for a fire.

My 2006 jeep liberty has a defective gas tank.when filling the tank completely full, the fuel pump nozzle will shut off only to have gasoline come pouring out of the tank onto me, my clothes, the outside of the vehicle, and all over the ground.after investigating the problem, it turns out i'm not the only one with this problem.jeep should be held responsible for installing gas tanks that are deemed to fail.the cost of this gas tank alone, quoted by the dealership is $1400.00, and the filler line is an additional $300.00.this is ridiculous.engine problems are one thing, parts due wear over time and this is understandable.but to have a gas tank that is potentially dangerous by spewing gasoline at consumers and being an environmental hazard is not acceptable.and chrysler/dodge/jeep not taking responsibility for their faulty manufacturing is not acceptable.and lets not forget that the government spent millions of dollars to bale them out, which turns out to be taxpayers money, our money, and they won't stand by their products.shame on you!!looks like i'll be purchasing a toyota fj cruiser instead of an american made classic in the future.thanks for nothing jeep
There was a recall on my jeep liberty issued october of 2013.it is now july 2014 and i still have not received my "follow up" letter.i spoke with my dealer on many occasions and the remedy parts are still not available.the following is an excerpt from the notice sent to me.this is a serious situation and if i am rear ended, my car could explode. Waiting almost 1 year after a recall is unacceptable."the problem is... The fuel tank on your vehicle has a small chance of experiencing a fuel leak during certain types of rear end collisions. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in an underbody fire.what your dealer will do? chrysler intends to inspect your vehicle and install an original equipment manufacturer (oem) trailer hitch where appropriate, free of charge (parts and labor) to better manage crash forces in low-speed impacts. The parts required for this program are currently not available. Chrysler is making all reasonable efforts to obtain the parts as quickly as possible. Chrysler will contact you again by mail, with a follow-up notice, when the remedy parts are available".

I purchased a used jeep in wisconsin that does not follow nhtsa or epa standards. The jeep overflows when filling the gas tank and spills gas on the ground at every gas station. This is a common issue with jeeps and needs to be recalled. It often requires replacement of the fuel tank or lines. My car is not under warranty since it was purchased used. I am extremely concerned of fire, pollution and my wife's safety with this hazardous issue.

According to chrysler customer service, my 2006 jeep liberty is included. Apparently, there is a risk of fuel tank puncture, and subsequent fire in the case of rear-end collision. Chrysler, after initially refusing to issue the recall, caved in to nhtsa pressure. When i spoke with chrysler today, five months after they agreed to the recall, they indicated that they are waiting on nhtsa reviews and approval of chrysler's recall proposal to install a trailer hitch in under-equipped vehicles, in order to strengthen the rear end of the vehicle and prevent gas tank punctures in the event of a low-speed rear-end collision.it seems counter intuitive that nhtsa would pressure a manufacturer to issue a recall, and then hold up the process of repairing affected vehicles when the manufacturer finally agrees. If this alleged vehicle defect actually presents a safety hazard, why allow five months to pass without action?
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.

The jeep liberty has regularly "spit" out quantities of gasoline while filling up at gas stations.the quantities range from 1 to 8 ounces, with the quantity that poured out today the largest amount yet.the quantities vary by how fast the pump is pumping and whether the pump is hand operated or on automatic but some quantity of gas comes out almost every time.the spill today left at least 4 to 6 ounces of gasoline on the ground which is both an environmental and safety hazard.

There is a slight fuel system leak that allows an air pocket to build in the fuel filter housing.when this air pocket gets drawn into the injector pump, the engine begins running badly, causing immediate loss of power.this has occurred multiple times, the first time the dealer could not duplicate the problem, so there was no point in returning to waste my time after that.i know how to temporarily fix the problem now that i have read so many other owners have experienced the same thing, as noted in the lost internet forum.the latest occurrence happened at 65 mph passing on the freeway, and i nearly caused an accident trying to maneuver off the road when i lost power.

2006 jeep liberty sportfuel overflows out of fuel filler tube when filling gas tank no matter how slowly the tank is filled.the automatic shut-off at service station pumps does not sense the back pressure of the fill tube for these vehicles.this happens every time when refueling vehicle at any service station.each occurrence causes spillage of fuel (approximately 6-12 ounces) on exterior painted surface of vehicle, on person filling vehicle and onto pavement creating not only cumulative damage to vehicle exterior but fire and environmental hazards as well.internet research concerning this issue with jeep vehicles shows this to be a widespread problem across the united states and corrective actions are very rarely addressed by the manufacturer and then only if vehicle is within warranty.obviously there is a defect in either the vehicle fuel fill tube, fuel tank or both.it appears chrysler corporation has been aware of this defect for quite some time, but has yet to recall these vehicles for the problem.

Fuel is expelled when filling gas tank, which splashes on vehicle and person filling the tank. Gasoline fumes are very strong inside vehicle after filling tank, and requires windows to be open for considerable amount of time to relieve overly strong smell.
Received recall notice on 1/7-2014.called local chrysler dealer numerous time since jan.they keep telling me that chrysler has yet to come up with the remedy. I would think that anything that has to do with a leakyfuel tank, would get high priority. Why don't the nhtsa look into what is going onthanks

First, this problem was randomly appearing, but now it appears each time i am driving on highway with speeds greater than 30 miles/h .-2 times my engine lost power for no reason;-the fuel consumption urban: ca 17 l / 100 km;-the fuel consumption extra urban: ca 12 / /100 km.my car is for the second time in the service in the last 6 weeks for the same problem ? electronic stability control, the primary safety system of this vehicle.first time, after 3 weeks they said they fixed the problem. I brought it back next day with the same problem. My car is still in service.my great problem is that my authorized dealer is unable or don't want to fix these problems, waiting to expire the warranty of my car ? in few days. They don?t want to offer warranty for the pieces they replaced, they say the warranty of this pieces replaced expires with the warranty of the car. I'm afraid this problem is unsolvable for chrysler llc, and my car is an unsafe car.also, i want you to help me with the serial number of the components of my car: wind screen, battery, pistons,?.i found this links on internet with 2006 liberty jeep owners with the same unsolvable problem.http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=6836&sid=9f0a35885eee4cb496bf50e84284d105http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=10382http://jeephorizons.com/phpbb/?f=8.

Check valve in fuel tank not operating correctly.during fill-up, the gas tank overflows onto the ground every time.i have seen many others complain about this issue in online forums.with gas always spilling over, i would assume that this is a very hazardous situation.

2006 jeep liberty - gas tank fueling issue. When filling the vehicle with gasoline at the service station the fuel pump will not shut-off and gasoline overflows from tank. Multiple gas stations tried, problem exists at all fuel pumps. Potential personal injury or fire hazard with gasoline overflowing from tank. Jeep chyrsler dealership cannot resolve the problem after 5 visits to dealership. Dealership acknowledges problem and has had jeep chyrsler engineering has been involved with no resolution to the problem. Potential personal injury or fire hazard with gas overflowing from tank. First reported to jeep chyrsler in dec 2008 and problem still exists. Dealer has replaced gas tank 3 times and new gas tanks do not fill properly. Jeep chrysler indicates that design change has occurred on replacement tanks not compatible with 2006 vehicle. Faulty gasoline tank currently installed on vehicle.
When filling up the tank at the gas station the tank has overflowed quite a bit of gasoline onto the ground as the pump stops. This has happened on several different occasions at several different filling stations.

The gas tank spews out fuel when you let it fill.
2006 jeep liberty.consumer writes in regards to no replacement parts to completefuel tank recall notice.
Fuel gushes out of tank when filling, splashing gas all over operator, vehicle, and ground. A lot of gas splashes, enough to be very dangerous. Even not ignited gas on the ground can be slippery and cause a fall. This is extremely unsafe, a fire and explosion hazard, unhealthy, an environmental hazard and a waste of valuable resources. There is no way to avoid the occurrence as it is not related to the speed of filling or whether or not you have the nozzle handle locked (most stations here have removed the locks anyway).

The nhtsa safety recall of my jeep liberty to repair a deadly defect with the placement of the fuel tank has not yet been repaired by chrysler.they informed me of the recall in december, 2013, but the dealer (jim riehl's friendly chrysler jeep in warren, mi) told me they didn't have the part yet.when i called that same establishment on march 3, 2014 to schedule the important safety repair, i was given the same response - they didn't have the part in stock yet.today i just received a mailing from jim riehl's friendly jeep in warren mi which states:"recall notice. As of december 12, 2013, this vehicle has the following incomplete recalls/customer satisfaction notices:n46 (n46 / nhtsa 13v-252) please contact us to schedule an appointment.recall/customer satisfaction notice repairs will be performed free."when i called russ in service at that same friendly jeep today, may 28, 2014 -- part not yet in stock.the statement about the recall repair is fraudulent - the mailing contained two coupons for vehicle maintenance.when will you stop this farce and force chrysler to stop endangering their customers and repair their deadly defect?

When filling the vehicle with gas, the pump's handle will suddenly and forcibly stop (as though the tank were full) and gasoline will spit out of the fuel opening, despite the fact it is gallons away from being filled to full capacity. This happens with every different gas station's pump handles, so to be clear, it is not an issue with the pump or handle, or the individual's ability to pump gas correctly; it is an issue with the gas line of this vehicle and the indicator or regulator or whatever part is defective.this is the exact same issue we had with our 2008 wrangler sahara unlimited, for which a recall was issued in 2013 for a defective gas line collar.once the recall was remediated the problem stopped.so i called jeep today to discuss why a recall had not been issued for our liberty since it has the same problem. The answer i received led me to believe that not enough complaints had been received by your office; so i am filing a complaint with you today so that you can investigate the need for a recall for this issue on the jeep liberty model.my daughter-in-law owns this vehicle and allows me to drive it, so i am filing this complaint to bring this issue to your attention on her behalf, and whose information appears in section 3, below.thank you for your attention to this serious issue.
When filling the gas tank, the gas pump clicks like the tank is full then it starts overflowing.
While filling tank with fuel, fuel spills out onto exterior of car.fuel does not stop, until overfull.this has happened on multiple occasions, and at various filling stations.
This has been happening for some time.when i fill up, the gas tanks gushes out gas when it is full.this happens almost every time that i fill up with gas.it seems extremely dangerous as there is enough fuel that spills on to the ground below the jeep.i have replaced every regulator in my jeep's windows.they go out all of the time.the last one went out while driving and the window crashed down and scared me to death.

This is an incident - when fueling the gas tank with the nozzle inside the gas tank opening, the fuel gushes out of the opening after the tank is full, spilling gas on the vehicle and on the ground.this is not at one gas pump, it happens at any gas station i go to.this results in a potential fire hazard and damage to the paint on the vehicle.each gas pump has an automatic vacuum shut off when the gas reaches the nozzle and is supposed to shut off the supply of gas.for some reason, the jeep liberty gushes out gas all over the place every time i fuel it.this has been a recurring event and the only reason why i have not reported it is because i did not know that this reporting mechanism was available and i was only putting in a limited amount of gas to prevent the gushing from happening.is this peculiar to just my vehicle or have others had this experience as well???
2006 jeep liberty sport (3.7l gas), spills fuel at every fill up. The pump will click off, and about two seconds later, about a cup of fuel will spill out of the filler tube all over my hands, clothes, and vehicle. Jeep dealer said they've not heard of the problem, even though with 5 minutes of research online, it's very common. This has been a problem since i purchased it as a certified jeep vehicle with 32,xxx miles.
Gas spews dramatically out of the gas tank when filling. A friend of mine has the same vehicle and his does the same thing. We cannot fill our tanks full, regardless of the filling station. We estimate that 1-2 cups of gasoline spew out onto the side of the jeep. It spews far enough to saturate clothing of the person filling up the tank. My wife's hairdresser reports the same problem with her 2006 jeep liberty.
After viewing some recommendations online about jeep liberty crd vehicle fires i decided to check the component listed as having possible issues on my vehicle. The electrical connection for the fuel heater located on the fuel filter assembly was in fact scorched and soaked through with diesel. A fire has not occurred, however i am seriously concerned that it could and that there is not a mandatory recall on this product. I have left the connection unplugged but winter is coming and i live in an area where that heater is necessary.

2006 jeep liberty made in may 06. This model is similar to the 07.gas tank filling to full, gasoline shoots out the gas inlet with much back pressure. It has been doing this consistently for the last couple of months since i bought the car. It makes no difference what station i go to, or how fast the gasoline is flowing.
On each fill up, gasoline shoots out of the nozzle receptor. This occurs with the operator holding the handle in or with the latch pushed down to hold the handle down. Approximately a quarter cup of fuel shoots out of the tank upon overfill. I have called several dealers and the dealer insists the tank has been compromised by "ethanol based" fuels. I have never filled up with anything but 87 octane. The dealer wants me to pay $5000 for a new gas tank. This occurs at every gas station and i have tried to fill the tank on the slowest setting. Neither method helps the overfilling. This is not only a safety concern for me, but an environmental hazard.

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.

When filling the gas tank, gas will squirt out before the nozzle can shut off.there appears to be a defect with the gas tank that causes air to not vent properly during the filling process.this air builds up pressure until it pushes gas back out the filler tube potentially onto the person filling the tank, down the outside of the vehicle and onto the ground.not only a safety issue but an environmental one that many others have also reported.

2006 jeep liberty sport fuel overflows out of fuel filler tube when filling gas tank no matter how slowly the tank is filled.
When filling the vehicle, fuel comes splashing out of the filler neck all over the side of the vehicle and possibly anyone standing too close. I feel this is a huge safety issue as the amount of fuel and vapors splashed out is a big fire risk. Does someone need to be badly burnt or killed before this gets fixed?
This was the first time that we had filled the tank up on our 2006 jeep liberty since we purchased it on june 7, 2013. While standing at the pump waiting for the tank to fill up, the tank started overflowing with gas. I had gas all over me, the car, and the ground. I wrote it off as being a problem with the pump. 1 week later i go to a different pump to fill it up, and it happens again. So i called the dealership that services my vehicles and explained the problem and we took it in for them to look at. They said that this is a common problem but jeep will not fix the issue.i started looking on jeep forums and have found quite a few instances of this same problem on the jeep liberty and these people have also filed claims to the nhtsa. The only way for the problem to be fixed is for the tank to be replaced because there is a check valve in the tank that is causing this. This is a very costly repair as i have called a couple of dealerships around in the are with the tank alone costing over $1,400 dollars.this is a known issue that jeep refuses to fix.it is a safety issue due to a manufacturing defect.

I purchased a 2006 jeep liberty summer of 2013 and the first time i filled it up, the fuel overflowed onto the back fender and onto the ground.i have experienced this numerous times when attempting to fill the tank fully.it results in a mess at best and a fire hazard at worst.

I have a 2006 jeep liberty that spews gas as it gets full. It has shot out as much as 3-4 cups worth at its worst. This happens every time it is a huge safety problem considering the amount of gas that is spilled each time.i have been told that it is a faulty venting mechanism in the gas tank and several others have the same issue on jeeps and dodges.i made mention of it at the dealership each time i have had it into the dealership. They never even looked into it. They told me that it must be the gas pump i am using. I have had it happen at gas stations in 8 states now. I am sure it is not the gas pumps.now that it is out of warranty, i am told that they could replace the gas tank at my expense. Since the vehicle is so new and only has 40,000 miles on it that this should be considered their responsibilityit is a safety issue though.*dt

Upon filling gas tank with fuel, the shutoff engages too late, and gasoline pours out down the side of the vehicle onto the ground.this does not matter which gas station is utilized, but happens whenever reaching a full tank, even when care is taken not to engage the spout at its maximum capacity.this is an ongoing issue, since i purchased the car last september, and so the following "approximate incident date" should be - ongoing.
Every time i fill my gas tank up a bunch of gas spills out all over the jeep, the ground and me.this has been happening for around 6 months now.this happens at every gas station i've used.
2006 jeep liberty.consumer writes in regards to a recall follow-up notice that was to be sent, which consumer has not received.recall 13v252000.
I received a recall letter in 2013 recall number n46 and nhtsa campaign number 13v-252. I have not received further notification to take my jeep in to be repaired. I called my local dealer who said they have not received any information or parts to repair our jeeps. This is a safety issue....why has it taken a year to get the parts to the dealers to fix our jeeps?when filling the vehicle with gas, the pump's handle will suddenly and forcibly stop (as though the tank were full) and gasoline will spit out of the fuel opening, despite the fact it is gallons away from being filled to full capacity. This happens with every different gas station's pump handles, so to be clear, it is not an issue with the pump or handle, or the individual's ability to pump gas correctly; it is an issue with the gas line of this vehicle and the indicator or regulator or whatever part is defective.
I have had multiple problems related to the back lights on my 2006 jeep liberty renegade 4x4 vehicle. I purchased the car new with no miles on it. Recently, the gas pump was leaking and a valve was installed to stop the oil from leaking. The back light rack had to be replaced twice in two months. The back lights have gone outnumerous of times.

I have a 2006 jeep liberty limited with approximately 88,000 miles on it.recently i started to experience a problem where the fuel pump nozzle does not shut itself off automatically when my fuel tank is full.the first time it happened i thought this was an issue with the fuel pump at the station, but it has happened at multiple stations and every time i pump fuel.i've just been trying to pay close attention and stop the fuel flow before my tank gets full.this overflowing fuel is going to damage the paint on my vehicle and is a fire hazard at the gas station, not to mention the fact that the fuel has spewed onto my shoes and clothing on more than one occasion.the problem seems to be progressing now, as yesterday when i went to get fuel, the nozzle spewed immediately upon beginning to pump (and the tank was nearly empty as my fuel level indicator had just gone off).the only way i could get fuel into my tank was to manually control the flow with the nozzle so that it went into the tank very slowly.i have contacted my jeep dealership and have a service appointment later this week.i've read about a lot of others with this issue, and it sounds like they will need to replace my fuel tank.
Almost every i fill my 2006 jeep liberty 4by4 with gas it spills out.
Our jeep liberty diesel as been running terribly lately, and then stalled and would not start.after looking further into the cause,i found that the fuel filter head had a fuel leak at the electrical connection for the fuel heater.it appears that the heater is over heating and melting the non-metallic filter head where the connector penetrates and seals.the connector that plugs into the filter head is black around one of the pins.i have left the heater unplugged, and for now have sealed the leak with a fuel tank epoxy patch.

Every time i fill the gas tank (parked with engine turned off), gas spews from the filler tube, runs down the side of the car, pools on the ground and underneath the car, creating an extremely dangerous situation. Gas continues to spew out and all over the area until i desperately grab the gas pump nozzle handle and manually disengage it! i now never can depend upon auto shut-off!! i have to manually operate the pump nozzle, not take my hand off it, listen to the gushing tone sound as the tank nears the full point and shut off the nozzle by hand when i hear the gas getting ready to spew all over the place!! this is so dangerous!!!!! over the course of several years, i thought this problem was just unique to my car but after talking with two other jeep liberty owner acquaintances, i discovered they had the same dangerous safety problem with their jeep liberty, as well. This is so dangerous.... It needs to be recalled and fixed!!! ("when did this happen field below: july 2009 to present")

Car starts accepting gas then you can hear it gurgle back up while it shuts off the pump. It doesn't matter how far in or out the hose nozzle is either. It is taking forever to get gas into my car most of it ends up spilling out over the top of the gas door. This is utterly ridiculous and from the web i see i am not the first person dealing with this issues and of course paying for this problem out of my own pocket.

The gas tank overflows every time the vehicle is filled up. Gas station pumps do not automatically stop when filling the tank. This occurs every time and at every gas station. This has the potential for starting a fire. It also leaks fuel into the environment.

I first bought the jeep in 2008 (used).everythine i went to fill the tank, about 1 cup of gas would spill out when it was full.i got used to this but now the service light pops on and the gascap waring appears in the odometer window.spoke to my local mechanic who said that it would cost about $1200 to get it replaced at my own expense.the other isse is that i had to replace three (3) regulators for my rear windows (2 on the driver side and one on the passenger side)if there have been over 300+ complaints about this, why hasn't chrysler recall the vehicle to take care of these problems.

I am the original owner of this jeep liberty first of all and i love it, but it is dangerous! i can't fill the gas tank on my jeep liberty with out it spewing back out. The first time it happened gas was all on the ground at the gas station. It got all over my hands and paints leg and burned my skin. I was out of town and didn't have an extra pair of pants to change into. All i could do is pull off at the next exit and try to clean my skin in the restroom. Now ihave to hold my ear down to the gas nozzle to hear the tank filling up.my husband can't hear well so i can't let him fuel the liberty. Out of fear of gas getting on others and on the ground, i am the only one that fuels the tank. Chrysler will not replace the gas tank because it shows no problem under my vin number. This is a public and environmental safety problem with gasoline on people and all over the ground! i need this tank replaced, just thunk about it....1/2 gallon of gasoline on the ground for every other jeep liberty like mine out there. I talked with jeep customer service again today and was still denied.
Fuel tank overflows, per repair shop needs to be replaced due to faulty valve. Was told that this is same valve that prevent fuel spillage in the event of a rollover.
When filling the tank with fuel, the pump does not shut off, and the fuel filler tube belches fuel onto the side of the truck and the ground. This causes a fire safety issue, the fuel damages paint and plastics on the vehicle, it is wasteful, and is hazardous to the environment.
Every time i fill the gas tank, about a cup of gas shoots out as the gas hose turns off.

Everytime i get my gas tank filled on my jeep liberty it spills over onto the vehicle and the ground and makes my car smell of gas for a couple of days after, this first occurred while i was at a full service gas station i heard the pump stop followed by gas pouring out and the service attendant yelled, jeep must be full! naturally i told the gas attendant he overfilled my tank and his response was, no its just a jeep thing, at first i didn't believe him but then the next time a filled it at another gas station the same thing happened (full service as well) i then filled the tank myself the following time and it happened to me as well! naturally i don't fill my tank anymore! i have two young children and now i am hearing about all these recalls on suspension and gas tanks exploding it rear ended! i think it is time for chrysler to step up and recall these death traps! i like my jeep, the way it drives and the 4x4 feature but this is just to risky to keep these vehicles on the road, how many people need to get hurt or killed because they don't want to dish out the money for the recall.

Fuel overflow at the gas pump. The pump will not shut off when tank is reaching the full point, therefore spilling fuel on the car, ground and often the person pumping gas.
This has been happening since the jeep was brand new. There is no auto-stop when filling the jeep. Up to a gallon, or more, will spill out if you cannot stop it in time. This causes fuel to get all over the vehicle and the person pumping the fuel. We have talked with the dealer about this problem repeatedly (in two states - new jersey and maine) and it seems there is nothing they can (or will) do. We cannot be the only one with this issue.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that after refueling the fuel tank, fuel spilled back out from the filler neck.

I bought this used vehicle 2 years ago. It currently has a recall on the gas tank. The way the dealership "fixes" this recall is to install a trailer hitch, which is laughable, at best. The testing agencies have proven that a trailer hitch is only minimally effect up to 25 mph and not effective at greater speeds. I requested the dealership "work with me" so that i could buy a safer vehicle from them. They are only willing to offer me the same trade-in amount as if i were trading vehicle solely because i want a new vehicle. I would keep this vehicle, if it were safe. I've contacted metal manufacturing businesses and requested that they build me a safe, strong gas tank and bumper to replace that which is currently in the vehicle. I am willing to pay the price to make this vehicle safe. The manufacturing facilities have refused to build any parts for me because the liability, after an accident, would revert to them rather than the burden being on jeep. I have told the dealership that i have a safety problem but they don't seem to think i should get any financial consideration when trading in an unsafe vehicle that can not be made safe either by me or by jeep. They will only offer me less than kelly blue book for trade in and have taken $1,000.00 of the retail price of the new vehicle. This is inadequate considering they sold me an unsafe vehicle which can not be fixed. The dealership is darlings; po box 277; brewer, maine 04412-0277. Phone: 207-669-6570.

The gas tank overflows everytime it is filled. This happens at any gas station and every time it is left on autofill. The jeep also emits a strong odor of gas regularly.
This problem pertains to the 2006 jeep liberty crd 2.8l diesel.under acceleration from 55 mph to 65 mph, the vehicle stalled and would not go over 3,000 rpm. When the vehicle slowed to 45 mph, it would not increase speed, effectively in a "limp-in mode" . After the vehicle stopped, the engine was shut off for about 2 minutes then restarted. The vehicle traveled for approximately 5-7 miles with no problems then the incident happened again.the vehicle was towed to the jeep dealer where it was purchased and after two weeks the dealer basically gave up trying to fix the car. The issue has not been fixed and as i scan the internet i find this is a common yet dangerous problem with this vehicle.

After fueling and starting the vehicle, it fails to accelerate for several minutes. Also when fueling it doesn't stop and will overflow onto the ground if you don't keep track of how much gas you are putting in. Another issue is that the vehicle shakes very badly when idle.

I filled up at 2 different gas stations about 300 miles apart and the same problem occurred.i set the automatic stop and the pump automatically shuts off.i go to remove the handle about 2-3 seconds later and gas comes spewing out all over the side of the jeep and onto the ground.there seems to be a reoccurring problem with thousands of liberty owners.many people i have talked to tell me that there is no permanent fix for this and i have to live with it.i have owned about 10 different vehicles in my time and not a single one of them ever had this problem.i will not stand for the "there is no permanent fix" bs anymore.this is a design flaw by chrysler inc and needs to be addressed as the owners are at risk of injury and the gas stations are at risk of fire and the general public are at risk as well.something needs to be done by chrysler, if not i will report them to the better business bureau.

Gas spills out of the tank when you allow it to use out shut-off of the gas pump. We paid $1885.82 for a new gas tank. Now our 2nd 2006 liberty is doing the same thing.
I received a recall notice in august 2014 regarding the fuel tank on my car.it has taken until today to get the part at the dealership, jones of bel air.some of the blame is due to the parts not being available and that jones did not contact me when the parts came in, as they said they would.i believe this has placed me at risk of harm due to the fuel tank leak that could cause a fire in the event of a collision.

Thought i was the only one until i came here...i didn't know it was a place to file a complaint.. If i fill up my car it does not automatically stop .. The first time this happened i mean the gas just spewed everywhere like all over me ... On the ground on the car... I just so afraid thought it was a defective nozzle for the gas pump...nope... It was my car. This is very concerning and i can never just fill my car with gas because even when full the gas will just continue pouring.
First refuel since purchase on 3/7/15.gas tank overflowed onto ground and on person refueling.fuel nozzle shut off after gas gushed out.
When pumping gas, it does not automatically shut off, and the gas overflows. I had it looked at, and they said the entire gas tank would need to be replaced.

I purchased what appeared to be a well maintained 2006 jeep from a local reputable dealer at a cost over of 10 grand on 10/3/14.the first tank fill up the gas overflowed out of the tank.there was no "stop" the gas just came out.i asked the cashier if there was a problem with the gas pump and they said they didn't know.so, the next gas fill up a week later, the gas shot out of the tank this time. Still no warning to stop filling the tank with a gas "stop".i contacted the dealer, who could not find anything mechanically wrong with the tank, and had to pay for and send the car to a local jeep dealer for repair.to make a long story short, they replaced the gas tank.albeit i received the car back with less gas than i had left it with.took the car home, filed the car on friday 11/7/14and the gas mechanism did stop the gas,but only after gas leaked out from the gas tank again, and they never even tested the car to make sure it didn't happen again! as i found out later, they replaced the tank with a used tank.i am incredulous about this issue.my dealer is going to take care of this issue, i hope.and if it is not fixable, i will never buy another jeep or chrysler product!from what i am reading on the web no one is listening to us jeep owners.thankfully i have a small warranty period that covers this issue,but i implore you to reopen this issue.i can attest this is not internet hype.i have worked hard for most of my life and feel as a consumer i am being taken advantage of.to make such a substantial purchase to only find out that thousands of others are being ignored with the same issue is beyond me.please fix what is already broken.

Since i haven received my jeep liberty renegade 2006 model. My husband and i have noticed that everytime we would fill up the gas tank. That lots of gas would pour out onto the car and the ground. We have done internet research and have found that lots of jeep liberty owners are having this same issue. There are videos and thousands of comments in regards to this issue. I have also contacted the epa,[xxx] and they are aware of the problem and had chrysler issue a recall to fix this issue. However my vehicle year falls out of the recall dates listed. We i spoke with them they said to contact you guys because there is not as many of my vehicle years to expand the recall. I feel this is a huge safety issue and need help with trying to get a recall on my vehicle year. I have taken the vehicle to our local chrysler dealer and they want to pay for a brand new gas tank at $500.00+ and i don't feel that because i own a 06 and not an 07 or 08 that i should have to pay for this defect. I contacted chrysler main number and they told me that my vehicle is not involved in the recall. When it should be.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
When fueling, the pump does not shut off.this has been reported as an o-ring problem and recalled in later models.
When pushed to speed up at a fast rate and upon approaching 65mph or faster the service engine light flashes slowly. My mechanic found the code reader saying a misfire was happening.when that light flashes it starts to shake pretty bad. Determined that cylinder 1 has low compression. Only way to find out for sure what to do next is to tear down the motor which i do not have the money for that. Sad how waistful people are forced to be with vehicles. Its still pretty new!!we took good care of this jeep maintaining it correctly since we got it with only 37k miles and has not had any problems till now. So this was a shock!before 37k miles i am not aware of this particular jeep's engine repair history.also this same jeep had the clogged fuel line causing the tank to spill out while fueling up when it was not full yet.
When filling car with gas on leveled surfaces.thecar will burp fuel out the filling neck spilling out on the road and grass.spoke to a local dodge and they said they had no fix for it but it is an issue.

Fuel spills every time we fill up. I took it to grapevine dodge and talked to a service adviser and she treated me and my daughter like we were stupid. Sorry, but i grew up working in a mobil service station and my chevy's don't overflow!!! so i left pissed off. It happens every fillup.
2006 jeep liberty's gas tank overflow malfunction. Every time i fill the liberty's gas tank it has overflowed. This has been happening ever since the first time i gassed it up after purchasing it in 2006. I have reported it several times to my local jeep dealership it was even reported to the dealership when i went in to get my free oil change (at 3000 miles) for the purchase of the vehicle, but they have constantly passed the blame down on me for not properly filling the gas tank. Because i am either a. At fault because i am toping off the tank or b. I am at fault for apparently using the same gas pump all the time. But it doesn't matter who's filling the tank, nor does it matter which gas station i go to gas ends up getting on me, the side of the jeep, and on the ground which is hazardous all the way around. I understand that the tank is under recall to have a hitch installed, to protect it from rear end collisions but i have no interest, in participating in the recall until the overflow problem is resolved.

During refilling of the fuel tank, the fuel shutoff mechanism does not work properly and fuel always overflows onto the ground.research reveals that problems of this type are known to be caused in jeeps of this year by the inlet check valve (icv).the recall for this issue in jeep wranglers should be expanded to include jeep liberty models.

For the last 2 years the gas tank belches fuel every time if the tank is filled up. I never top off the tank but by the time the automatic release on the fuel pump shuts off about 1/2 second later several ounces of fuel pour out of the gas tank and down the side of the jeep and onto the ground. It seems like a major safety issue and there are hundreds of complaints online. Is there a recall or investigation for this problem?

It has been brought to the attention of the nhtsa that there is an issue with jeep vehicles that when fueling up the gas tank a geyser of gasoline will erupt from the tank upon "completion" of filling the tank. Covering the car, the individual filling the tank, the ground, and anyone else within a certain vicinity in gasoline, a highly flammable liquid. Chrysler has a history of this issue with their vehicles. In 2009, 45,000 cars were recalled for it. Currently, chrysler has agreed to "initiate a lifetime warranty program" to address this very issue in 135,000 jeeps manufactured in 2007 and 2008. Leaving all other jeep owners with this issue to continue risking their lives and the lives of others by getting continually doused in gasoline. Recently, chrysler issued a recall for 430,000 jeeps because of a weakness in the gas tank that can burst into flame in the event of a rear end collision. So they know their gas tanks are weak! this latest recall admits to it. So why the discrimination against the rest of us jeep owners with faulty inlet check valves? where is justice, and concern for our safety?
Every time a fill gas the car overfills and lots of gas spills out. This is happening at all different gas stations and i have seen others online with the same problem, my car has only 65k miles. This is for sure a safety issue that must be recalled, it is a huge fire hazard.

Fuel tank overflows every time you fill up. Only way of preventing is to never to fill the gas tank.
My engine light it on
While filling up with gas, if you try to fill the tank, gas pours out of the tank before the hose can shut itself off.gas covers the side of the car, is all over anyone standing near and the ground.when i walk away from the car, the gas station attendant says i must stay with the car during the gassing process.is it safe to have a car where the auto shutoff doesn't work for a fluid as flammable as gas?i have tried many gas stations, this occurs at every station, and hoped the problem would correct itself, it has not.

I was driving down the street when the diesel jeep stalled. Luckily i was able to get to the side of the street. I checked and there was air in the diesel fuel line. When i used thepump to prime it fuel started leaking around the heating element electrical fitting. When i pulled the fitting you could see charring around the end. The vehicle now gets air in the lines and stalls all the time. I have pulled the electrical connection because i am afraid of fire.

I recently purchased a 2006 jeep liberty 2006. Every time i put fuel in it, it overflows. It is not automatically shutting.off therefore spilling over and getting all over the car or me. This is very dangerous. I tried filling up at a few different gas stations and it is the samerthng. On the internet it is showing many people have concerns about this why isn't there a recall? i am afraid someone will throw a cigarette out their window and i will blow up. I wipe it.up each time.

I took my vehicle to a jeep dealer to have the n46 recall completed after waiting 4 months for parts. I was told that i have level 5 surface rust and that it is unsafe and they will not fix the recall. I called jeep and spoke to a rep about the recall and was told they will not fix the recall and i will have to pay to have the rust removed. I am very upset because a 2006 should not have rust to the point they won't fix a recall.

Every time i fill up my gas tank it overflows before the nozzle shuts off. This has happened routinely at multiple gas stations. I have stopped trying to completely fill up my tank but if someone else fills my tank and does their math wrong the gas starts spilling out onto them and the ground. I have taken it to a local dealer about the issue and they wanted to replace my entire tank and i would have to pay over $1,000 for them to do so, even though its a known problem in other jeep models. This is a safety hazard and has the potential to do great harm to someone. I have not been in any accidents which shows that's its a structural/component issue and not that it somehow got knocked out of wack.

Later, i also called chrysler and was told the parts would be available in about one month. Now, they are still telling me "in another month or so." i am concerned because, if i am rear-ended due to no fault of my own, i will not be protected from a firey explosion.

From the time i received the recall notice i have been trying to resolve the issue.i called when first received the recall, then again in june and spoke to a jennifer, stated that the part was on back order and that i was in the 100 and they were on 30.i asked what i should do during the waiting time and she said to try not to get hit.i called again the beginning of september and jennifer stated that i should receive a part or call in a few days.it is now september 14 and i have not heard anything about fixing or setting up an appointment for fixing the jeep.i have three children that ride in my jeep, i do not have a choice but to drive it, all i can do is pray that i do not get hit from behind one day and cause the gas explosion that could occur do to manufacturing issues.
When filling the gas tank, there is almost always overflow that spills out of the nozzle onto the side of the vehicle and onto the pavement.i would estimate this happens about 80% of the time i fill up.
The gas tank shoots a large quantity of fuel out each time when refueling, which covers the rear quarter panel of the vehicle in gasoline as well as the person pumping.this occurs consistently, each time the vehicle is filled regardless of factors such as pump speed, temperature, depth or position of the nozzle.it is very difficult to time fueling so that the tank is not full so this does not occur.this is a safety hard due to the inability of the gas tank to hold the gasoline, which would be dangerous in the event of even a minor accident.it is also hazardous for the vehicle and individual to be covered in a highly flammable substance such as gasoline in the event of an accident.many other drivers of this model also say this happens continually, that it is a consistent defect among others across these models and chrysler dealerships refuse to fix the issue.

Rear driver's side power window regulator broke after only 40,000 miles on a 2006 jeep liberty limited 4x4.window received only light used, was not used while frozen with ice.this failure results from aplastic part that is specified in the regulator design that is not durable enough for this application.this failure renders the vehicle unsecure as the window either falls down on its own or can be pushed down from the outside by hand.it also causes a safety issue as the window can fall down unexpectedly.this is especially an issue during winter or storm conditions.incurred $250 in repair costs.replacement parts have the same design flaw and can be expected fail again in similarly short peroids of time.
The regulator motor of the rear driver side window malfunctioned and the window slid down the track.consequential damage of this defect caused the door latch to brake, making the door inoperable.the consequence is a safety hazard if an accident or rollover required the passenger to exit the automobile.the failure of regulator electric window motors is commonplace on chrysler products, whereas, these occurrences are all over the internet.the dealer fixed the problem at a cost of $600.the vehicle was out of chrysler warranty, and the extended warranty insurance carrier would only cover the motor.they did not cover the broken door latch, or the window glass.after several conversations with chrysler, they admitted to having a running change in the engineering of the electric window assembly, and you cannot buy the regulator motor separately.you must buy the glass window and the entire assembly together.i believe the history of this failure warrants a recall by the manufacturer for safety concerns with the door latch breaking as a result of bad engineering.
2006 jeep liberty, owned since new in late 2005 currently 75,000 miles. All windows have broken at least once, some more than once, i have lost count. First three times fixed under warranty. Last four or five times fixed at my expense.

I have a 2006 jeep liberty, the front drivers window and the rear drivers window have both fallen while driving. I currently have them ty wrapped up. This is a temporary fix but also a serious safety concern as the driver would have a problem with egress in an accident. Chrysler will not address this issue,this is obviously a factory defect based on the amount of complaints, this needs some attention!
Key stuck in ignition. Steering wheel turns, shifter works, keys will not come out of ignition.
It is common that 2006 jeep liberty window regulators fail frequently. I have had all 4 of my windows fail; two of the windows have failed a second time following dealer repair.although the rear windows are rarely used, both have fallen completely into the door while i was driving.this is clearly a dangerously flawed design that should be corrected by jeep/chrysler.
Locks continuously unlocked and locked, which drained the battery.car would not start or even turn over.remote keyless entry did not work.(identical to the 2004 recall).

I bought a 2006 jeep liberty limited on 8-20-09 in excellent condition with approximately 50,000 miles. Before i even drove the car off the dealerships lot, the rear driver's-side window/window regulator failed rendering the window inoperable. Dealership did not have part and had to seal in up position so as not to fall, while part is being ordered. Upon extensive research on the internet on various highly respected car review/rating sites, i have learned that the 2006 jeep liberty has a known defect in quality of window regulator design and material used which causes windows to drop into doors or cease operating routinely on average of every 2-3 months. Yesterday while driving, my rear passenger window dropped while i was driving 65 mph on a major highway in traffic. I was subsequently startled to the point i swerved, and narrowly missed hitting another car which would have caused a multiple car collision on a major interstate. I have since taped my window in the "up" position until i can resolve this issue with dealer. Dealership has informed me that they will only cover this first replacement/repair, and that i will be responsible for future window regulator repairs of $500.00 each. This is absolutely unacceptable. A company/dealership should stand 100% behind their product and should certainly address potential safety issues resulting from something as critical as this. The known window regulator failure could cause accidents, bodily injury, theft/vandalism issues, and depreciation and degradation of vehicle interior due to weather damage. I will be filing complaints with state attorney general and car manufacturer/corporate headquarters. A safety recall should immediately be issued, and these window regulators should be redesigned with something other than plastic that has proven to repeatedly fail. While certainly an inconvenience of time, and a financial drain and stress to consumer, this is most assuredly a very serious danger to occupants & other drivers.
My liberty has 3 recalls, 2 having do with big safety issues- fire and tires detaching. I first called planet dodge (miami, fl) for service appt.; gave vin and advised of recalls- surprise! when i arrived for my appointment; they said the parts were on back order! today i called tamiami jeep to make an appointment and was told 1)it's very dangerous as tires may detach 2) they have some parts, but not some bolt, if that is required! question- if these are mandatory recalls and on such potentially safety compromising parts- how can the parts be on back order for 3 months!!(this will be my first visit to tamiami for service appt-but was already advised not all parts available- what's the use of making a appointment if they is a nationwide of a part to repair a recall?what happens if my tires detach or my car has "underbody fire" as per my most recent notice?i would appreciate a reply via email and i would like somebody to investigate how service departments can run out of parts that have mandatory recalls. I was not told at planet dodge how serious this was and have been driving around waiting for the parts to arrive.(lower ball joint).

Abs, esp, brake light, battery and check engine light, come off and on i have took it to jeep at two different locations, neither place has been able to resolve my problem, i even drove with tech in the car, he saw the light come on and was unable to determine the cause.
Car will not blow out cold air but works for a moment then just hot air. Thought it needed freon but i am being told new compressor is required $700.00.

Windows3 of 4 have dropped.

I have had my 2006 jeep liberty at the dealership 6 times in the 3 years i've owned it. I bought this car brand new and have had nothing but problems since. First the car would not come out of park, at the dealership they couldn't duplicate the problem and sent me on my way. After may months of this happening daily i had it towed on a flat bed to the dealership and they finally replaced a cable that connected the gear shift to brake after telling me i could just slam really hard on the brake and it would just disengage, i should just have done that instead of having it towed. (stupid me i guess) then i had the same abs traction check engine light problems i've heard and read many complaints about, first time taking it in, the problems stopped and they sent me home. Second time, i drove it straight there and made them look at it and drive it, they had my car for four days and call me to tell me there was nothing they could do because the codes were stored and not active reset the computer and sent me on my way. Now yesterday a year later and at 48,000 miles the car started again. I made them hook it up while the car was still running and the lights still on. What they don't tell you is that shutting your car off "stores" the codes. With the car still on, the codes were active and they found the problem. The body control module. However now it is out of factory warranty and i had to fight with the gm to get it covered. They still wouldn't cover it under factory but did cover it under extended warranty and waived my deductible. However i am still very upset that this has not been recalled, this should not be at my expense at all!!! i will never buy another jeep ever!

Car can not be placed in park and have it stay there, key will not come out
Vehicle stalled, engine shut off when backing out of driveway. The stall point of the transmission is exceed, making transition from reverse to drive or drive to reverse too much, causing a stall. Also, idle in drive when stopped there are surges that cause a near stall. This is a safety issue, as it can happen when making 2-point or 3-point turns on a road with traffic.

On two different occasions while driving on the highway at 60 mph to 70 mph, the engine of the vehicle shut down completely, without warning, with the loss of all steering or control over the vehicle.on two other occasions, the engine shut down completely, without warning, with the loss of any steering or control over the vehicle, after exiting the highway and entering city traffic.that is a total of four engine shut downs or stalls while driving the vehicle. The dealer can find nothing wrong with the vehicle. We just bought the vehicle, and this is nerve-wrecking and dangerous to say the least. The engine shuts down after driving long distances, and has happened from driving distances of approximately 90 miles to 160 miles. If you wait approximately one hour, the vehicle will then start up again and run. But it will stall again with complete loss of power.others on the internet have also experience this problem with jeep 3.7 and 4.7 powertech jeep motors.our jeep is a 3.7 motor. This appears to be the same problem as jeep experienced with jeep commander and jeep grand cherokee models, which were recalled. This situation can obviously be life threatening. Chrysler jeep should not be allowed to put life treating vehicles on the market and these jeeps must be recalled. We ask for your help in this matter before someone is seriously injured.

2006 jeep liberty will not shift out of park intermittently.after several attempts of applying service brake it comes out so far. Dealership wants $600 bucks to replace shift lever tower and shift cable.others on line talk about same problem.dealerships plead ignorance on the problem, but will gladly take $600 to replace the shift lever tower and !
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.while the vehicle was parked in the driveway in first gear, it rolled backwards.the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer, but they could not determine the cause of the failure.recently, the vehicle was parked in first gear and with the emergency brake engaged.the vehicle rolled away again and crashed into a tree.the vehicle was still able to be driven and sustained moderate damages.the police was called to the scene and a report was filed.the vehicle will be taken to a collision center for repairs.the vin and failure mileage were unknown.the current mileage was 24,010.
I put my car into 4wd for a minute and came to a complete stop and took it completely out of 4wd. It stayed stuck in 4wd and after burning up my engine it broke my front passenger side axle and now i have to pay $800 for repairs. I have never used my 4wd and we are stuck in a snowstorm in the mountain close to portland, oregon and i cant get anywhere.
The vehicle shift assembly for these model of jeeps fails to operate correctly. The cable will not set in the proper position when shifted back into park, disabling the owner's ability to remove their key from the ignition. The only solution is to remove the cover covering the shift assembly and forcefully push the cable into place to release the key. In addition to this, the shift handle can be bumped and shifted into gears, or into reverse or park, without the brake being pushed as would normally operate the assembly. This causes the risk of accidentally bumping the vehicle into a gear that could cause an accident and risk the driver's life.
Transmission broke!every owner of a 2005 or 2006 jeep liberty diesel that i have spoken with,has had to rebuild or replace their transmission.the manufacture had a recall to tune down engine to help prevent problem,i had this done,but this is only a temp fix,(a band-aid).the real problem is a weak link in the tranny,(the torque converter).when the torque converter fails it destroys the transmission..which is whatjust happened to me.my jeep is 8 years old, but i only had 68,000 miles on it.the reason i purchased this vehicle was for the long service life of the 2.8l diesel (300,000 plus miles before rebuild).i live in a somewhat rural area and i have spoke with over 12 people who has experienced this same problemwith there 2.8l diesel transmission #545rfe.i know this is a nationwide problem,i have gone online and spoken with alot of liberty owners and all have had transmission problems,i have also spoke with many former liberty owners who said they would never drive another jeep, because lack of dealer concerns over transmission problems..they had!i am correcting the problem by replacing the damaged stock transmission,with a highly recommended aftermarket one made for the torque of a diesel engine..i feel consumers should not half to endure that large out of pocket expense,to repair a manufacturer problem!thank-you

Manual transmission slams out of 1st gear into neutral when accelerating from a stop.this could cause a serious rear-end collision because the vehicle is suddenly out of gear at a critical point of acceleration.it is unpredictable and the only way to prevent it is to hold the stick shift securely while accelerating.it happens quite frequently.

The pain on the outside roof is peeling, i do live in a state where the roads are salted however, there is no salt used on the top of the vehicle, this, while not a new vehicle should not be peeling the way it is. The front windshield had a severe chip & the installer was barely able to sand this area down enough to be able to seal the windshield. I have done some research & this is a very common problem along with the rear window regulators both of which have had to be replaced. There are problems with the emergency break & the jeep dealership gives one reason for the abs, esp among other wheel and breaking issues. And now the one thing that jeep is finally supposed to be doing something about rather than me having to put more money into this vehicle for, the gas tank recall seems to be a ridiculous fix, and i have been on a waiting list for this for months and still have not been able to get it in to get this fixed. I saw a news story that said that chrysler was being mandated to fix these very poorly made vehicles. I would like to know how this particular vehicle does not fall into the other recalls when it has been having the same issues. I have been having breaking system issues as long back as 13 months after i purchased this vehicle.
Key will not release from ignition on steering column due to restricted (degraded range of motion from a subassembly with weakened spring) movement of automatic transmission shifter interlock cable.vehicle can not be put in park (shifter freely moves through p r n d 3 2) and key will not make the last little turn before release.seems to be an extremely common occurrence among owners, based on cursory online research.requires replacement of entire center console shifter assembly with an "upgraded/improved" mopar part to fix the known high failure subassembly (but not available for purchase separately).inability to place vehicle securely in park would seem to be biggest safety issue, not to mention vehicle security compromised with key perpetually in ignition. ..updated02-10-15 updated 8/28/2017

Gear shifter indicates jeep iis in park, but vehicle rolls and will not start in this position.must "wiggle" four wheel drive shifter to get car into neutral to restart car.vehicle rolls unless held in place by emergency brake.
The vehicle keys can be removed from the ignition while the shift is in drive, and it was removed on this date and the car rolled into another vehicle
On three separate occasions vehicle stalls upon engaging drive or reverse from park or neutral. The shift is made, the vehicle begins to move, then suddenly it stalls, the engine shuts off. Park or neutral must be quickly reselected to restart vehicle. Danger of being in an intersection when this happens it high. Dealer says it is a known issue, with no solution.

Shifter moves freely between park-reverse-neutral-drive-2nd-1st gears.this happens when the vehicle is turned on and off; and with or without a key in the ignition.if the shifter is bumped while driving down the road, the vehicle can be thrown into reverse and/or park.when i contacted the jeep dealer in springfield missouri, i was told that jeep has since redesigned the shifter control and the entire assembly must be replaced.cost for the entire assemble is approximately $480 plus labor.if the problem is so apparent that it can be found thousands of times using google, and if the manufacturer has since redesigned the entire shifter control system; then one would think that they should have issued a recall.

This is a new liberty crd (diesel) with 610 miles that was accelerating from a border patrol checkpoint on i-8 east of san diego.while accelerating to ~65 the vehicle suddenly lost power in heavy freeway traffic and slowed to 35 mph even though the engine was running good.this sudden loss of power caused overtaking vehicles to swerve violently to avoid an accident including at least 2 panic stops.when the vehicle was safely on the shoulder (engine was idling fine) the car was shutdown and restarted which apparently recycled the computer and cleared the condition.vehicle has performed fine since that incident.

After purchasing my diesel jeep i noticed a shuddering in the transmission at about 55-65 miles an hour.considerably worse with you decelerate after acceleration. In a construction hold on traffic my vehicle idled for about 10 minutes.when i was cleared to move forward i put the gear selector in drive.the jeep stalled.it took me a several attempts to restart the motor. I have done extensive research and have come up with one answer. Air is in the fuel. I have taken it to a jeep dealer in ozark alabama and in dothan alabama.chrysler tells them that the air in my fuel system is ok. I demand to know what is a safe level of air allowed in the fuel system.no one has measured the amount of air in the fuel system.please tell me so i can have it measured because i have volumes. I am afraid it will stall out on me again.i have had a few close calls when the jeep hesitated and choked after a long light and a train crossing,

On the 5th. Of september i was traveling home from dayton, oh on i70 and just as i was coming intoindianapolis, in. My 2006 jeep liberty crd had a failure in its transmission that caused me to temporary lose control of the car.i was driving at the speed limit of 65 to 70 mph and all of a sudden there was avery loud klunk and the cars speed dropped from about 65 mph to 40 to35 mph almost instantly and that's when i almost lost control for just abouta second.i check and there was no cars either behind or to either side of me, which was luckyfor me because if a car or semi would have been behind me i would not be here writing this.i pulled over to the right hand lane and started to leave the road for the shoulder.then all of a sudden my car started to drive normally again.i drove at a reduced speed for awhile and did notice that ther was a slight transmission shudder.this went away after a few minuetes and i was able to drive home to florissant missouri without futher trouble.i would like to say that i have checked with other's who own libertyi's and several of them have had the same problem.though their's was not asharrowing as mind.i took my jeep jiberty down to the dealer's the following day and left it there.that was two days ago and they are still working on it.i will be seeing the servicerep. Tomorrow and will finding out a little more about what happen.i do know that this it seems to bea ongoing problem with the 5 speed automatic traansmission with a transfer case.

On sep. The 23rd i was on i70e just out of effingham il. When my jeep liberty crd had a problem.there was a loud noise or thud then all of a sudden my speed went from about 65 mph down to 45 to 50 almost instantly.the white van that was behind me just tapped my rear bumper with no damage.the driver of the van went on around me as i went off of the hyw. To the side of the road.this problem cleared up in about 1 min. And the car the went on as it was ok.please reference odi number10167608.this incident is the same as that report.also coming back to florissant on the30th of sept 2006 the exact same thing happened.however mycar was the only car in sight at the time. I have hadthree events with this type offailure and one of them resulted in the vehicle behind me just touching my car.the dealer here in florissant, mo.(marty cancilla dodge. Has yet to figure out theproblem.the chrysler district rep is going to be here on this thursdays to talk to me.as far as i am concerned this is a very dangerous problem, especially whentraveling on the interstate a 60 to 70 mph.my jeep liberty has been in the dealersshop sincetuesdayof last week. I do hope they will fix this problem.i know form the jeep internet forum that this is a real problem with other liberty owners with thedieselcrd.thank you for taking the time to read this.
The gearshift locks in park and cannot be moved.the problem occurs inconsistently, and although it has been brought to the dealer twice for this problem, they state that there is no identifiable problem with the system and no sure way to fix it.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty.i have two issues.first one is the rear brakes.i replaced my brake pads at 34000 miles to find my rear outer brake calipers were not making contact with the rotor on either wheel.the svc mgr at grindstaff of elizabethton, tntold me my rotors were warped.there is no way this should happen at 34000 miles.i drive 95% four lane highway miles to work - no red lights at all.you can see by looking at the rotors the outer brake pads have never made contact with the rotors.when the other six pads were replaced the outer rear brake pads were not worn one bit and the outer brake contact surface of the rotor is not worn at all.the second issue is the brake actuator solenoid.my jeep will not come out of park when it gets extremely hot inside the vehicle without running the a/c about 10 mins. To cool the brake actuator assembly off a little.it sticks in park and will not come out.the same dealer told me they would not fix it because it's an intermittent problem even with it still under warranty (reported at 33000 miles).the service mgr at grindstaff in elizabethton, tn said they would not replace the defective parts because it was only an intermittent problem.i am very dissatisfied with the reliability of this vehicle.both problems i have are safety issues, factory design issues and dealer warranty compliance.
Automatic transmission torque converter is going into partial lock-up. Manufacturer is aware of situation per kn 87887255, but there is no repair at this time. Hesitation, shudder, almost stalls. Been occurring since purchased new.
I have a problem with my 2005 jeep liberty diesel failing to stop at the first stop sign in the morning. It has also not stopped after being parked for a few hours.the engine continues to push the vehicle forward into traffic or the intersection/cross walk.i have taken the vehicle to jeep but they cannot duplicate the problem.i have come very close to runningover students on the campus of the university of alabama.i believe this problem is associated with jeep's torque converter problems.my wife has also experienced this problem so it has nothing to do with driving style.this problem will eventually kill or injure someone.
Vehicle was driven up to red light.when light turned green, vehicle would not move leaving it in traffic unable to get out of the way.it was later determined by the dealer to be a failed torque converter.the part was replaced, however, other parts in engine and transmission that could have been damaged were not replaced.was told by dealer that redesigned torque converter is not yet available but coming.
I am the owner of a 2006 jeep liberty.approximately 3 weeks after i purchased the new vehicle the transmission failed while i was driving on the highway.at that time the vehicle was towed to the service department where the transmission problem was said to be repaired.since that failure the vehicle was not running properly:the automatic transmission did not seem to be shifting smoothly.for the next 8 months i tried to have the service department repair the problem but they did not, the told me the "problem" was normal.in january 2007, i noticed the problem with the transmission was getting worse.i had to press the accelerator more than normal to get the car to shift after making a stop.the car would then jerk into gear while my foot was on the accelerator and i would speed up more than was safe.the final incident was when i was accelerating to get on the highway after a stop and the car jerked into gear along with making a clunking sound. Because i was trying to accelerate, when the car jerked into gear i was sent off the side of the road.thank goodness there was no traffic or i would have been in a serious accident.i drove to the nearest service department where the problem was quickly diagnosed as a torque converter problem.the vehicle was in for repairs for 22 days before i got it back.parts were replaced in the transmission but only after approval from the manufacturer.the vehicle is running a little better but it is still not running like it was when i first bought the vehicle.this problem can be deadly and i no longer feel safe driving the vehicle.
2006 jeep liberty crd with 2200 miles completely died on the on ramp to an interstate.after 7 days the dealer said that it was the flywheel in the torque converter.they say that they cant get parts to fix the problem.i had my two children in the car and had to wait for a tow truck to rescue us.i felt very lucky that i was not getting on the interstate the other way because there is no place to even try to pull over.
2006 jeep liberty crd began stalling while on the interstate.driving started out normal, then suddenly while at a steady 65 mph the jeep began making a loud noise and not responding to acceleration.this went on and off intermittently for 5 miles to the next exit off the freeway, then it occurred intermittently on a highway then side streets until i made it home.from a dead stop it was extremely sluggish to get going at all.the symptoms point to torque converter issues, i had previously had the torque converter recall work done at the dealer in december 2006, apparently that didn't even last a year.it is unacceptable to stall on a freeway, let alone side roads.the dealer was unable to schedule a visit for well over a week, it goes in tomorrow.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty crd (diesel) i have had problems with my jeep driving safe now since i bought this truck in jan 2006. My truck will shutter and almost stall on a daily basis in heavy traffic. And back in may 2006 my whole truck stopped dead on a local highway and went into a "limp" mode bringing me from a 45 mph speed to about 2-3 mph in a second. I have researched this and have found that the issue seems to be in a faulty torque converter in the transmission. I have meet several other people on the internet and in person that have all had the same issues. I have told my dealer about this with 0 outcome of a fix, there is a service bulletin for the transmission, but this has not helped either. I only hope that the issue does not happen while im on the interstate with my wife, with the sudden speed loss and lock up of my rear wheels i could only hope the cars behind me could stop in time, could a large semi though? there are many people with this issue and only doing a short internet search will prove this. Just search for liberty crd lost torque converter and see what you find. I hope that jeep will have a better solution soon for this.
On the 27th. Of dec. 2007 i was traveling on i70e and as i was getting back on the hwy. From a rest stop just east of indianaplois, in. My 2006 jeep liberty crd had a failure in the transmission torque converter.i going about 60-65 mph when all of a sudden there was a lot of shuddering coming from the transmission and then a loud klunk and it cause a sudden drop in my speed from 65 to 30 mph. Luckily no one was injured or hurt, however as in the past when this happen, its without warning causing a temporary loss of control.the transmission shudder happened several more times while ii was traveling.my dealer has know about this problem for over a year, and i have reported it to his service department more than 4 times and the problem has yet to be fixed. Chrysler i believe knows that there is a problem with the jeep liberty crd's drive train but has yet to fix the problem.this will be my third complaint to nhtsa on this.the same problem happened again when i was returning home on the 3rd of jan. 2008. I will be seeing a rep on this coming monday and i do not expect to get any satisfaction from him on this safety matter.also my rear brakes are groaning every time that i stop and thedealer has already did a tsb on them once and the problem has returned.they told me that after the car has more than 12,000 miles they will do nothing. The car has just 16,500.
I was doing a rapid deceleration for traffic slowing down suddenly on us 30 in york county, pa. I heard a loud clunk as i slowed down and the check engine light came on. As i tried to get back up to speed the jeep would not get out of 3rd gear. I kept to the right and got off at the first exit. After 5 minutes, i got back in the jeep, started it up, the check engine light still on. It shifted somewhat normally although it did shudder a bit. The following day, 9/10/06, the engine light was off and appears to be shifting ok now. I called the dealer who said that if it happens again i should bring it in. I am aware that there have been problems with this torque converter/transmission. I am concerned that it will happen when i have less flexibility to respond with a sudden power loss, especially in rainy/snowy weather, or a crowded road with only one lane.jeep liberty limited, 2006, 2800 miles.

The ignition key was stuck in the ignition and the brake park interlock mechanism was not working. I was able to move the shifter through it's entire range without pressing the lock button on the shifter knob. This is a safety hazard since without these safety mechanisms operating correctlythe shifter can be accidentally knocked onto drive. The weak link is a plastic push rod in the shifter mechanism that is not strong enough for the job. Many chrysler shifters will fail in this manner.
My 21 year old daughter was driving my 2006 liberty on the northern parkway in westbury, ny on january 2, 2008.the car was purchased in july 2006 and has approximately 15,500 miles on it.suddenly and without warning the wheels locked up ripping out the transfer case and dropping the drive shaft on the highway.the car behind her was damaged as it ran over the drive train components.the driver of the damaged car saw flames coming out from under the liberty and a cloud of black smoke.(probably from the gear oil).fortunately the liberty veered into the breakdown lane and not into another travel.no one was injured.the liberty was towed to westbury jeep.initially i met with the service manager and he indicated the repairs would be made under warranty.after 12 days he phone me and said ...either the car hit something or it was driven in 4wd low on the highway.neither of these occurred and jeep does not acknowledge a problem with vehicle and will not cover the repairs under warranty.i phoned chrysler and they won?t even send a rep to look at the vehicle.chrysler contacted the dealer and repeated what the dealer said. The chrysler service rep would not provide another contact saying she was trained to handle these situations.she also said there are no tsbs or recalls for my liberty which apply.i am frustrated and stonewalled by both the westbury jeep and chrysler.

Clutch safety switch on 2006 jeep liberty (3.7 l gas engine) failed after 40 k. Ironically, this requires replacement of the entire master cylinder (cost $375).

The fabric of all of the seats in my jeep stain extremely easily.even water stains the seats beyond repair.you can imagine how difficult this is living in new orleans where it rains often.i have had the seats professionally cleaned 5+ times and i work very hard to keep them clean, but still nothing helps.they are now discolored and have a foul smell from just the water droplets alone.i have a couple friends that also have this make and model of vehicle and they all have the same problem.something is wrong with the integrity of the seat fabric.something should be done about this.this flaw reduces the value of my car and gives a bad reputation to the jeep name, as well as underplays the quality that is normally assumed when purchasing a jeep vehicle.this is not a problem that is occurring due to the misuse of the seat or lack of trying to preserve their integrity.i have had this problem since the day i purchased the vehicle brand new.it was only after seeing many other owners filing with the same complaint, i decided to speak up so that something can be done to rectify the situation.if there is anything i can do to fix my seats, i open to suggestions because every cleaning product/ service i have tried has failed.my seats (once beige/grey colored) are now brown in patches, slightly misformed on the seats, and retaining an unpleasant odor (im assuming from the fabric soaking up and retaining any fluid that touches it).also, not just fluids stain the seats (while that is my main concern).anything that can leave a mark on a seat, does so and it is permanent no matter what i try.this includes, but is not limited to, foods, pencil marks, dye from clothes (yes it somehow gets rubbed onto the seats while sitting and the fabric retains it, which i have never seen happen in any other car before), deodorant and/or car sprays for improving scent.
2006 jeep liberty seat fabric stains very easily -- water stains. No apparent way to clean it and keep it clean. Also 3 out of 4 window regulators have been replaced.

Driver seat recliner handle broke off while making the needed adjustment, the operation of the recliner on both driver and passenger is extremely hard. With or with out a load applied to the back. Drive seat is now restricted in movement at a 25 degree angle. Passenger recliner will only work if you are out side the jeep and assist from the back seat to move the seat back forwards and backwards.
The bracket that is riveted to the seat frame/pan and bolted to the seat back fractured into two pieces.the bracket on each side of the frame failed under normal use conditions.i purchased a replacement used frame and upon did-assembly discovered the same failure.this could be a fatal condition in a crash, especially if there is a passenger in the rear seat.
I was in stop-and-go commute traffic traveling approximately 15 mph. Traffic started moving a little faster when the car in front of me brake hard, i pressed hard on the brake pedal and my jeep lurched forward before braking hitting the car in front of me. The road was dry and there were no skid marks.the way the jeep lurched forward it felt like the brake pads were worn out or the rotors were warpedor the shocks were faulty. We had bought the jeep liberty new less than one year earlier. I was able to drive the jeep home. That was a friday and by monday my stomach became so distended i could barely move. I had been in contact with kaiser advice nurses throughout the weekend and that monday i was hospitalized. 2 weeks in the hospital resulted in the first of 3 surgeries that changed my life and my families life permanently. Surgery 1 was an illeostomy in july 2007, surgery 2 was j-pouch surgery in december 2007. Surgery 3 was abdominal reconstruction surgery in september 2013. I have permanent nerve damage in my stomach, painful scar tissues throughout my upper torso, a degenerating disc in my lower back and ongoing abdominal and hip pain. The physical and emotional toll this has had on my family is tremendous.my 2006 jeep liberty has been determined to be a lemon by the state of california.
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.
While applying brake & shifting to reverse, car accelerated in reverse at high speed with no throttle engaged. Brake was pressed the whole time and pumped to stop vehicle, there was no braking. A pole was impacted crushing vehicle. No warnings of this issue. This has left the family in fear of ever driving a jeep.this was a jeep liberty 2006 with less than 70k miles. Well kept maintained vehicle.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that an independent mechanic diagnosed that the undercarriage had rusted extensively.

Consumer's mechanic is willing to answer any questions regarding the issue.
Parking brake backing plates have come loose and the parking brake shoes are dragging and wearing out too fast
Abs system goes out which in turn makes the cruise control go out.then when you use the vehicle again the abs is on so is the cruise control but the brakes don't work well and grab.then when you are using the lights at night it dims for no reason inside and out.still waiting on the fix for the rear end fuel tank issue
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving unknown speeds, the brake pedal was depressed and a grinding sound was heard. In addition, the abs, esp, and anti-skid warning indicators illuminated.

The pain on the outside roof is peeling, i do live in a state where the roads are salted however, there is no salt used on the top of the vehicle, this, while not a new vehicle should not be peeling the way it is. The front windshield had a severe chip & the installer was barely able to sand this area down enough to be able to seal the windshield. I have done some research & this is a very common problem along with the rear window regulators both of which have had to be replaced. There are problems with the emergency break & the jeep dealership gives one reason for the abs, esp among other wheel and breaking issues. And now the one thing that jeep is finally supposed to be doing something about rather than me having to put more money into this vehicle for, the gas tank recall seems to be a ridiculous fix, and i have been on a waiting list for this for months and still have not been able to get it in to get this fixed. I saw a news story that said that chrysler was being mandated to fix these very poorly made vehicles. I would like to know how this particular vehicle does not fall into the other recalls when it has been having the same issues. I have been having breaking system issues as long back as 13 months after i purchased this vehicle.
The vehicle was in need of new brakes, rotors, parking brake shoes and hardware at 93000 miles. A grinding noise from the rear drivers side braking system was present when in motion and assumed to be warped rotors. When the rotors were removed it was found that the parking brake backing plate and the bolts that secure it have rusted to the extent that the plate is loose and no longer secured, which makes the parking brake defective and is a serious safety concern. This appears to be a very common problem and for a vehicle under 10 years old and 100000 miles to have parts rust so severely that they fail is an issue that chrysler should address, as it is obvious that this part was not made to last.
Parking break mounting plate attachments have sheared separating the the parking break assembly from the axel housing rendering the break useless on both sides of the vehicle.cause of failure unknown but the issue appears systematic with the vehicle and is not easily repaired.
My anti skid, abs, and esp lights are on. The cruise control is not working. Also, at about 50 mph, my front end acts up. I am told that this is a known problem with the clock spring.
Abs light keeps going off even when brakes and rotors has been replaced . Brakes will skip or make a shaking vibration on the pedal when press and makes it hard to stop or impossible while in motion rather driving in the city or on the highway.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken for routine maintenance and after inspection, the mechanic informed her that the rear backing plate, which covered the emergency brake from debris, had become rusted and corroded, detaching from the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified and a complaint was filed. The vehicle was not repaired.the failure mileage was 78,000.
The clock spring on this 2006 jeep liberty has been broken for more than two years. This has disabled the abs system, vehicle stability program andthe driver's airbag. This is a known problem to jeep and they are doing nothing about it. They just continue to say the part is on back order. This is unsafe and someone must force a mandatory immediate solution in the last 2 months alone since may 2015 the backorder has grown from 500+ to 700+ and now chrysler won't even return my call
At 44,143 in dec 2009 i had 4 new tires and rear disc pads replaced. In july 2012, about mileage 54000, while driving in town, the left rear wheel speed sensor failed causing loss of abs, esp, and cruise control. I had dealer repair.at 67,642,in april 2016, i noticed the rear disc rotors were caked with a crusty rust and it appeared that the brake pads were worn out..the rear brakes could not have been working.the dealer put on new rotors, calipers, pads, and flushed the system.the rusty rotors could not be turned to reuse, the calipers were both "stuck" and the brake fluid was "black".i also had the front rotors turned and new pads installed.the abs, esp, and cruise control still lights up on the dash for a minute then goes out by itself, leading me to totally distrust the system.i have never seen brake rotors so rusted in my 65 years.
Abs, bas/esp, tcs indicator lights illuminate, vehicle loses power, brakes are applied ( most likely right front as car pulls to right) releasing throttle cancels the braking. As throttle is reapplied sameaction is repeated. So far it has only occurred at speeds< 35 mph. Should it occur in slippery road conditions it most likely result in loss of control.in researching the problem on the internet, it seems to be or is becoming a more common occurence which fca is not addressing. If you read the other complaint of the same problem it dates back a few years, yet there doesn't seem to be anything done to correct it. Some complainants say they have been unable to have it corrected even at jeep dealerships, others report it's something called the clock spring that is causing the problem and the parts to repair it aren't available. Having just recently had fca's gas tank solution corrected, i hope a fix for this won't take as long. I neglected to say this was not a one-time event in as much as it happens now on an almost daily basis. A local shop checked for fault codes but there were none in memory; i have it scheduled for further tests 09/16/2015.
Esp problem, i been working on the breaks, master cylinder, calipers, brake control,sensors and i don't have a clue what to do.
I've had lower ball joints, bushing and control arms already replaced once in 2017 and now they are out again.i've been told by mopar that my 2006 liberty was made 5 weeks after the last one involved in the recall.this is inexcusable.i've had 3 window regulators replaced. This is a fatality waiting to happen if i drive. I started hearing and feeling the ball joints going bad about 2 weeks ago. I hardly have driven it since i work from home now. Can chrysler see all these complaints about the ball joints and still not add these 06 jeep's to that recall. This is not good business at all. Also just had front brakes done 1 year ago and they need replaced already. Ignition - my key will not come out of the ignition unless i push on the ignition cable. Please help me to get these problems fixed. This is unacceptable from chrysler.
Took car in for rear steering arm recall.was having a recurrent shimmy on front drivers side and a squeaking noise.had u joint bolts previously replaced and brakes and rotors replaced in late october 2011.rotors again replaced in feb.2012 due to warping and again replaced due to warping in sept.2012.when i took the car in for rear steering control arm recall they found the same issue with the front passenger side control arm.has anyone else had this problem?the front control arms have not been recalled.less than a month has gone by and i am starting to feel a shimmy again.do not feel safe in this car anymore. Car is garage kept and up to date with scheduled maintenance. Also part-time light on dash randomly flashes on and off. How long until the drivers side control arm needs to be replaced?
Yesterday my abs and esb lights came on. I did notice a bit of grinding type noise approximately twice in a full day of driving. Today, same thing, but lights went off a couple of times right after start up. My brakes and tires were replaced in late august. The repair shop said my brakes were in good order but the right rear wheel speed sensor is bad. If this doesn't correct issue, a wheel alignment and reset the steering angle is recommended. None of these issues would warrant the odd grinding noise when breaking and only occassionally does this happen and it did not occur when the technician drove it. This was all on city streets and driving straight in good weather. A quick google search indicates this is a problem with many owners of the2006 jeep liberty. Many people have replaced the brakes, sensors, rotors and all things brakes but still experience the lights and the noise. Often, there is reference made to the clock spring. Since i saw so many complaints and my repairman was so vague that his recommendations would actually solve the issue, i felt it is worthy of investigating.
While i was driving the abs bas esp stopped working and the lights came on. We were living in ft wayne indians at the time and without those features this jeep is flat out dangerous. I had the wheel speed sensor replaced twice but that wasn't it. One dealer rebuilt all four of my brakes and purged the system. That didn't work. I paidfour different dealerships over 3800$ plus rent fees. It still is t fixed.
Safety defect1) my wife was driving in the rain and went to the mall.just after she left the mall, the 2) dashboard lights for abs, electronic stability control, and traction control came on and stayed lit.within a mile or so, my wife had spun across 3 lanes of interstate traffic and into the guardrail while attempting to enter interstate.3) at this point the jeep liberty has been towed to a body shop.nothing to repair failure has yet been attempted.
Esp/bas malfunction on my 2006 jeep liberty. When i apply the brakes the vehicle does not want to break and has caused me to loose control of the vehicle.the vehicle will shake and make a grinding sound.i took it to the dealership and they said it was the rear end sensor and charged me $289.80 for repairs.they also said they have no idea what is causing the grinding sound and my brakes are fine.after looking this up online, it appears that this a very common complaint and a serious safety issue.

Intermittent problem with abs/electronic stability system setting warning lights on dash and disabling abs/esp.warning lights illuminate, and turn off randomly.malfunction has now lead to failure of abs, causing loss of vehicle control while braking.abs cycled without need, and improperly, causing uneven braking and violent, uncontrolled swerving of vehicle.required removal of abs pump fuse to make vehicle drivable again.this occurred under normal braking from ~45mph to a red light.had this occurred at freeway speeds, or under an emergency stop, there would have almost certainly been an accident.owner forums report this as a common problem.

Abs/esp electronic stability control problem. Vehicles started braking causing uncontrollable swerving on highway, which my newborn twins in the back seat. This seems to be a big issue with jeep. Vehicle will brake hard on a tire while traveling at highway speeds thinking that there is tire traction slippage.

Dashboard lights for abs, electronic stability control, and traction control came on and stayed lit and i was able to reset after turning the motor off.
I purchased a 2006 jeep liberty sport and i have been having a problem lately with the brakes as if they will not stop, it has a toggling feel under your foot when you press the brakes to come to a complete stop as if it will give way and not stop, i've been told before i got on line that it may be the abs, or the anti brakes, but i called the jeep dealer ship and he said that they do not have a recall on my vehicle going by the last eight digits of my serial number, i do not feel safe driving this vehicle and i would like for them to do something about it or at least check it. Before they will check it, i will have to pay them.i read the recall information and i am having the same problem with my 2006 jeep liberty sport and he can say that my jeep is not on recall what's up with that.do i have to be killed in this vehicle for them to even check it. Or injure someone else because they don't want to do their job.i will be taking my jeep to e-ford in florence sc to be checked at my expense which i feel is not right. But i care more about my life than they do i guess.
This is my second time in the last two weeks for the same problem. My last complaint was the abs/bas, esp lamp coming on. My 2006 jeep liberty was at the dealership for 1-1/2 weeks. The dealer says the codes are stored, but they must be active to locate the problem. The day after picking up my jeep liberty, i was driving on the vehicle on the highway at 45-50 mph, the same lamps came on. Now i afraid to drive the vehicle for fear of the brake system. My vehicle only has 24,888. I recently wrote to chrysler to complain.
I had to replace rear brakes after just 12,000 miles on my brand new 06 jeep liberty. Those brakes should last at least 80,000 miles. The service manager told me that they did not find anything wrong with my brakes, so they installed back the old calipers and the old rotors. They have replaced just the brake pads, but not under warranty. They consider that "a normal wear". There is a mechanical problem that wears the rear brakes that fast and the dealer does not want to fix it. Thank you!
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated she took the vehicle in for a routine maintenance regarding the brakes. The mechanic noticed rust and corrosion underneath the carriage and on the brakes. The mechanic replaced the rotors and brake pads at the owners expense for $600. The vehicle was taken back to the mechanic for another routine maintenance within 14 months. The mechanic informed her that the left rear axle wascovered withrust and corrosion. The dealer and manufacturer were notified of the rust and stated there were no recalls for the failure. The failure mileage was 6,000 and the current mileage 6,200.updated 03/14/12*ljthe consumer stated while driving the anti-lock brake light illuminated and the brakes started vibrating. The dealer found all four rotors were corroded and all four pads were worn. Updated 03/30/12
Replaced 3 windows that would not stay closed (common problem) . Went to dealer for an oil change found out that all5 (or 6) break hoses were about to burst and car was unsafe to drive. No fault of my own but jeep has "no idea" how it happened!kept my car for 4 weeks! now the key gets stuck in the ignition every time i turn off the car! car's a lemon!!!
When changing brake pads, i noticed a bubble on the side of the brake line.all 4 brake lines were involved. The bubble was on the rubber portion of the line close to the caliper.i made an appointment with the local dealership to have the lines replaced.their inspection identified a fifth line with a rupture also.all were replaced.since this is a safety component i asked if jeep was replacing the parts and was informed it was not covered by them or my extended warranty.this vehicle is a 2006 jeep liberty and had 48,870 miles at the time.
The consumer was driving when the vehicle suddenly accelerated to 65 mph.no amount of pushing on the brakes made the car stop. She was going down a mountain, whizzed past a stop sign, and went around another curve until she came to a major state road with lots of speeding cars. She had to make a decision either to try to merge onto the road or plow into the mountain.she plowed into the mountain and came to a stop where she hit a stop sign at the end of the road inches from the ongoing traffic. Both of her feet were on the brakes the entire time. The vehicle flipped on its side and the engine was still roaring.
In response to all the complaints of abs light and brakes feeling like they won't work. I had this problem and was at the dealership a lot over the last 2 years. It turned out to be a burnt wire! i have not had any problems in the last 3 months (which is a long time for this car)!. Please tell your mechanic to check the brake sensor (abs sensor) wires!!

Having approx. 31,000 miles on my vehicle, i was already hearing what i thought was the noise maker on my brakes. I took the vehicle into pepboys to find out it was not the noise maker. The factory brakes were not wearing correctly. I still have 50% left on the front and 75% on the back. I should not have to replace my brakes at only 31,000 miles.

I own a 2006 jeep liberty.i have two issues.first one is the rear brakes.i replaced my brake pads at 34000 miles to find my rear outer brake calipers were not making contact with the rotor on either wheel.the svc mgr at grindstaff of elizabethton, tntold me my rotors were warped.there is no way this should happen at 34000 miles.i drive 95% four lane highway miles to work - no red lights at all.you can see by looking at the rotors the outer brake pads have never made contact with the rotors.when the other six pads were replaced the outer rear brake pads were not worn one bit and the outer brake contact surface of the rotor is not worn at all.the second issue is the brake actuator solenoid.my jeep will not come out of park when it gets extremely hot inside the vehicle without running the a/c about 10 mins. To cool the brake actuator assembly off a little.it sticks in park and will not come out.the same dealer told me they would not fix it because it's an intermittent problem even with it still under warranty (reported at 33000 miles).the service mgr at grindstaff in elizabethton, tn said they would not replace the defective parts because it was only an intermittent problem.i am very dissatisfied with the reliability of this vehicle.both problems i have are safety issues, factory design issues and dealer warranty compliance.

The power steering failed as i was exiting the expressway.the tow truck driver informed told me that he knew about the "jeep liberty" problem.that he is currently picking up at least 1 jeep liberty per day due to failed power steering.he mentioned thathe thought that the current design causes the belt to just slip off.he then raised the hood and showed me that the belt was intact but just off and was lying on another part of the engine.he mentioned that the dealer should see and repair the problem; however it may come off again. He told me that this was that same problem that he was seeing with the other jeeps that he is towing, the belt just slips off.i do not make many road trips, just back and forth to work and my daughter's volleyball practice.

He suggested that i inform the dealer of our conversation, and also suggested that i request an inquiry.being sunday evening the dealer was closed.i plan to be at the dealer tomorrow morning.

A large noise followed by deteriorated control steering my vehicle.

My make, model and year of vehicle matches the recall and i think this calls for further investigation into additional vehicles.
The lower control arm and ball joint failed per f 23 recall of jeep chrysler and damaged the tire and rim which had to be replaced. We filed a claim with chrysler customer assistance on aug 20, 2014 and they were processing it and told us they would reimburse the $1146.83 not later than oct 20, 2014. We had not heard anything from ccassistance so we telephoned today. Brad, the agent, could not find any record and also said that the recall was completed and that there would not be any reimbursement to us for the repairs we had to make. That is not in accord with the recall and furthermore, the lower control arm and ball joints failed again on august 18, 2014 and the safford chrysler jeep dodge of springfield virginia replaced the control arms and ball joints on both the left and right side under a f23 recall warranty at no charge to us. We request that nhtsa contact chrysler and require them to reimburse us for the $1146.83 which we paid out of pocket.

On two different occasions while driving on the highway at 60 mph to 70 mph, the engine of the vehicle shut down completely, without warning, with the loss of all steering or control over the vehicle.on two other occasions, the engine shut down completely, without warning, with the loss of any steering or control over the vehicle, after exiting the highway and entering city traffic.that is a total of four engine shut downs or stalls while driving the vehicle. The dealer can find nothing wrong with the vehicle. We just bought the vehicle, and this is nerve-wrecking and dangerous to say the least. The engine shuts down after driving long distances, and has happened from driving distances of approximately 90 miles to 160 miles. If you wait approximately one hour, the vehicle will then start up again and run. But it will stall again with complete loss of power.others on the internet have also experience this problem with jeep 3.7 and 4.7 powertech jeep motors.our jeep is a 3.7 motor. This appears to be the same problem as jeep experienced with jeep commander and jeep grand cherokee models, which were recalled. This situation can obviously be life threatening. Chrysler jeep should not be allowed to put life treating vehicles on the market and these jeeps must be recalled. We ask for your help in this matter before someone is seriously injured.

Jeep liberty with steering system problems**ccthe steering wheel didn't return to its normal position after making a turn. The consumer stated on a recent trip, he had to force the steering wheel straight after making small turns.
Ignition switch binds up intermittently also shifter and steering wheel do not lock up and can move shifter from park without pushing brake. Adjusted shift cable but did not solve problem. Found that shifter and cable assembly were worn. Removed and replaced shift interlock cable and gear shift assembly. Test operation ok.
Key would not release from ignition after parking.took to dealership. I advised dealership, possible shifter assembly and shift interlock cable problem, per other comments?i just received a call from them and they advised there was a piece broken in steering column and they needed to replace whole steering column.problem 1 is there is a supposed national back order with an undetermined date of when they will get it in.2nd issue, is they had no solution on how to get key out of ignition so i could properly secure my jeep from theft or help with any solution to this other than....lock and unlock with spare key, since it is key fob that is in the ignition.3rd issue............the cost $1240.65 with parts and labor..........i will be checking this out with other service centers and repair shops to make sure before i consent to any repairs with anyone.
I was leaving my bank and entered my vehicle and proceeded to start it with my key. My key turned and would not start my vehicle. My battery is about a 1 month old and i checked to see if there was a loose connection or corrosion (connection tight and no corrosion). I checked all fluids (fine), i just had oil, oil filter and breather filter changed a few weeks ago and they check all fluids. I turned lites, wipers, turn signals and radio on (worked fine), horn worked. With my key in the ignition, i had no problem turning the steering wheel. I opened my driver's door and saw it show up as "door" on the dash panel and noticed engine lite on. I depressed and held brake pedal down and was able to shift to neutral and back to park with no problem. I had a friend come and look at my liberty, and he checked and did everything i did.we both thought it was the ignition switch. I informed the bank that i was having car problems and have to leave it in their parking lot over nite. I had the jeep liberty towed to a jeep dealership in stuart florida the next day (12/12/2012). They informed me that the pin in the ignition switch broke off and fell inside and that they would need to replace the whole steering column. And it would cost over $1000.00.i was informed the next day (12/13/2012) that they could not locate a new steering column and that they would need to replace the steering column with a used one. Now it will cost $800.00. I researched and noticed that other jeep liberty owners have had problems with the ignition switch. I hope i am not being scammed. My jeep liberty has about 50000 miles on it.as i think about it, wouldn't the ignition switch need to be replaced and not the whole steering column? my jeep is still at the dealership and i hope to get it back on 12/17/2012.
Failure of high-pressure send/receive power steering line due to rusted connector on a vehicle with 42,000 miles on it leading to a $600 repair and loss of use of my vehicle for over a week.

There is only one window that will come down and it's the front driver side, they all came down and would not come back up. I replaced a regulator in the right back window and it went again so i just had them all pinned up. I've also had to replace the ac compressor twice and just put in 07/06/2018. I had to have a transmission put in 3 years ago. And now the truck is just shutting down when i come to a stop but it will start back up. I had a diagnosis test done and it didn't show any problems, but it's still shutting down and i don't know why. The mechanic said it is probably something electrical or has to do with the computer.
While driving veh. Slowy went over a speed bump heard a loud bang. Upon inspection noticed that rear trailing / control arm. Had separated / rusted. Unable to drive at speed or control steering. Did not crash though.
We purchased a used 2006 jeep liberty last year. Last night we went to drive it up the road and the right front passenger side tire disengaged from the steering knuckle and the ball joint disconnected. Luckily enough we weren't driving very fast otherwise it could have caused injury considering the tire is now almost at a 90 degree angle and we can't move the car. I understand the statute of limitations is 8 years after the original purchase date, i would like to know if i can get a manufacturer repair done free of charge, and would rather have it done at a dealer knowing they would have the correct parts. Normally my 1 year old is in the car, luckily he wasn't last night, but would like to know if i am entitled to repairs.
The lower ball joint broke causing the frame and wheel to separate. The frame fell onto the tire. The rim was sliced completely in half.and the brand new tire was busted. It caused us to loose control of the vehicle. The vehicle feared of the road and landed ina ditch. We had to have a tow truck pick up the vehicle. It cost us 300 dollars to have the vehicle brought home. After getting home we found out the piece that broke, the lower ball joint, was part of the jeep recall in 2006. I called chrysler and they did admit that part was a recall fix in 2006. We are now waiting on chrysler to call us back to let us know what we are suppose to do next. We are without a vehicle.
Key is stuck in ignition which is unsafe to leave vehicle unattended at any time, my dealer has advised me that the problem is the gear shifter and since the vehicle is easily shifted into gear without a key it could have rolled away if placed in the neutral or drive gear.
My key locks up and i cannot turn it all the way back to release the key.therefore my key remains in the ignition.i am able to start the car but unable to remove the key.
The lower and upper ball joints are deteriorating and cause inner wear on both front tires.the car had an alignment and new tires less than one year old.the accelerated inner wear and cupping resulted in a blowout.this is a safety issue. The jeep liberty has serious suspension problems. When i spoke to the jeep/chrysler cooperation, they were unwilling to assist in fixing the problem. When completing research, this seems to be a common problem with 2006 jeep liberties. Jeep fails to recognize that the vin model of jeep has a defect in lower and upper balls joints for my model. I am very disappointed in the jeep company for the lack of attention and assistance for such a major safety issue.
The tilt function of the steering wheel frequently comes unlocked causing the steering wheel to move up and down.this is particularly bad when driving at highway speeds or when reversing.there does not appear to be an easy way to tighten the tension on the adjustment lever.
As i had just exited the florida's turnpike north bound at kendall drive in miami and attempted to enter the town and country mall at about 20 mph, the front passenger side ball joint of my 2006 crd 4x4 jeep liberty came apart causing the vehicle to lock the front wheel as the steering arm with part of the ball joint enter and landed inside the rim and the tire, perforating it and preventing the tire from turning causing the jeep to almostbuck like a horse sending us head first towards the windshield. Thankfully, it did not happen 45 seconds earlier when my family and i were on the express way driving 65 mph...it would have been catastrophic! this equipment/part failure is known as recall f-23 by chrysler/jeep and they are well aware of it!! i was never aware of such recall !! chrysler/jeep, after one month at their dealer continue to refuse to fix the collateral damage on the vehicle (rim, etc) created by their defective part!! using as an excuse that the factory warranty is over when it has nothing to do with that. Chrysler sent an "independent" inspector to view the vehicle. This "independent" inspector's bill is paid by chrysler. This equipment failure is extremely dangerous!! and could be fatal!!! please help!! at this time i only want my jeep fixed properly, and thatchryslerhonors the traditional jeep quality and commitment to their customers!! a letter has been sent to chrysler claims after multiple attempts to solve this problem in person and via telephone. No results!! updated 06/04/14

We never had any problems with the steering on our 2006 jeep liberty until we had a severe cold snap (jeep was bought in fl and now resides in de) and then all of a sudden it developed a screeching, straining noise in the steering and all around driving.it didn't matter what speed we drove the noise was always there and consistent, whether you turned a corner, put on the brakes, backed up or drove on the road normally almost sounded like the brakes were dragging but we had the brakes changed in april 2013. Took jeep to our auto repair shop and they diagnosed the vehicle with bad upper and lower ball joints. Don't understand why this would happen all of a sudden but in ended up a very costly repair.

My mother bought a used 2006 jeep liberty has never had a problem,so in march of 2010 me and my husband decided to purchase a used 2006 jeep liberty from a trusty car dealer. Within 2 months of having this jeep our right rear window dropped into the door as we were driving to a family function. My biggest fear was that 1 of our 3 kids could have been hurt by broken glass. My father repaired the window by wedging a piece of wood between the door and the window. I later called jeep who told me there was no recall on this jeep and that they would gladly split the cost with me which only cost $600 per window and they won't warranty because they know it will happen again. I left it alone cause we could not afford this at the time. A few months later in november 2010 the left side rear window slipped,once again my father repaired it at best he could. I finally went online to see what i could do repair the problem myself at a cheaper cost. I came across a web site steigers.com the gentleman who owns this company has created a replacement piece for the broken part and it works great. I replaced it myself with no knowledge of repairing cars. The only hard part was working in such a tight space..thank god my hands are small enough to squeeze in between the door and the window area. The part is about a $100 with shipping and handling and so far seems to have solved the problem it took about an hour to do all the work on 1 window. Thats not our only problem with this lovely vehicle we have also had problems with the fuel spilling out when filling the tank. The tank seems to build pressure or catch air. I don't know all i know is it scared me really bad the first time.and we have also had problems with the esp especially when you hit a turn to hard or hit a big bump. How wonderful a 4x4 vehicle who doesn't like big turns,bumps or snow. And the most expensive part is the broken window..they told me its called a binding crack it happens to all jeeps so don't force your jeep to do its job..and work.

The lift plates on all side windows of jeep liberty vehicles can be defective.the window will unexpectedly completely drop down.chrysler corporation accepts the fact there are window defective lift plates.they extended the vehicle warranty to replace the lift plate parts if they fail.to my knowledge chrysler corporation did not notify owners about the defective parts or the extended warranty.i found this information out when the vehicle was taken in for window repair at the jeep chrysler dealership (the faricy boys chrysler, jeep) on september 18, 2013.chrysler knew all the side window parts were defective, but would only replace the window lift plates that were not working on that day.another side window lift plate on the same vehicle failed on may 30, 2013.when driving the vehicle and a window completely drops down it can startle the driver and is a distraction that could cause an accident.the vehicle was again taken in for repair at the jeep chrysler dealership. The dealership said the extended warranty had expired and the cost of repair needed to be paid by the owner.in summary, chrysler corporation knew the side window lift plates are defective, but would not replace all the defective parts.i am asking the nhtsa to order a mandatory recall and require chrysler to fix all window lift plates on the jeep liberties.a defective lift plate can cause the window to unexpectedly drop down and can present driver confusion and a distraction while driving.this can present a dangerous situation to the health and life of americans.thank you.

My complaint is actually about nhtsa!in june of 2013, nhtsa petitioned chrysler to recall (recall number n46) jeep liberty vehicles including model years 2002 - 2007. According to chrysler customer service, my 2006 jeep liberty is included. Apparently, there is a risk of fuel tank puncture, and subsequent fire in the case of rear-end collision. Chrysler, after initially refusing to issue the recall, caved in to nhtsa pressure. When i spoke with chrysler today, five months after they agreed to the recall, they indicated that they are waiting on nhtsa reviews and approval of chrysler's recall proposal to install a trailer hitch in under-equipped vehicles, in order to strengthen the rear end of the vehicle and prevent gas tank punctures in the event of a low-speed rear-end collision.it seems counter intuitive that nhtsa would pressure a manufacturer to issue a recall, and then hold up the process of repairing affected vehicles when the manufacturer finally agrees. If this alleged vehicle defect actually presents a safety hazard, why allow five months to pass without action?
Had recall notice for installing a trailer hitch. Took to midway jeep in kearney ne. On february 3 2014 and they told me that they had to order a hitch. As of today may 5,2014, i still don't have a hitch installed.

This was the first time that we had filled the tank up on our 2006 jeep liberty since we purchased it on june 7, 2013. While standing at the pump waiting for the tank to fill up, the tank started overflowing with gas. I had gas all over me, the car, and the ground. I wrote it off as being a problem with the pump. 1 week later i go to a different pump to fill it up, and it happens again. So i called the dealership that services my vehicles and explained the problem and we took it in for them to look at. They said that this is a common problem but jeep will not fix the issue.i started looking on jeep forums and have found quite a few instances of this same problem on the jeep liberty and these people have also filed claims to the nhtsa. The only way for the problem to be fixed is for the tank to be replaced because there is a check valve in the tank that is causing this. This is a very costly repair as i have called a couple of dealerships around in the are with the tank alone costing over $1,400 dollars.this is a known issue that jeep refuses to fix.it is a safety issue due to a manufacturing defect.

Received a recall notice over a year ago. Dealer continues to say parts are not available. This is not a timely repair and every day this is delayed is another opportunity for a rear end collision to impact the gas tank. Coming to believe that with the volume of recalls issued the nhtsa does not have the ability to enforce these repairs.

My daughter was driving and a truck in front of her stopped quickly causing my daughter to slam on brakes to avoid a collision but ended up rear ending the truck.her airbag deployed and her jeep had to be towed from the site.it has been in the shop since 4/28/14 and was repaired except for the clock spring which is necessary for the new airbag.we have been told that this part is no longer produced or manufactured by any vendor in the country.therefore, our jeep cannot be released to us which has caused a hardship on our family as well as a hardship for the shop manager as he cannot be paid until the car is released.because of this i believe that anyone driving a 2006 jeep liberty in the country is possibly at risk due to this device not being readily available in the proper supply channels.

Today the jeep dealer said the frame rail was not good enough to install the hitch as called for in therecall. I called the chrysler complaint line and was told there is nothing chrysler can do. So now i mustdrive an unsafe vehicle, how can i sell it, or even trade it in. What am i supposed to do now?i read that vehicles less than 10 years old could be purchased back. These jeeps were recalled forrear suspension componets rusting up so now that the frames is rusting i have to drive a death trap.i am wondering how many times chrysler is using these excuses in order to not do anything.one could even think this recall was crafted in such a way that chrysler could get off using these excuseswhat are the people in my situation supposed to do????
We all own cars.my car has this problem where the power windows suddenly stop working.in other words, i can lower my window and have it suddenly decide to not come back up, leaving me with a vehicle subject to all kinds of theft.this problem has happened thirteen times now on my 2006 jeep liberty and chrysler expects me to pay $475 for each repair.i want chrylser to provide this service for me free of charge, only because they did the first twelve times.without this support, i am in a position where i cannot keep my car and cannot afford a new one.do you know what it feels like to lower your car window and have it suddenly not come back up?especially in the cold of winter?the customer service center gave me every excuse they could find to not help me out.and they also told me i was being pretentious.how would you feel if this was how a car manufacturer treated you?i come from a family of jeep owners and chrysler (the mother company) would rather lose my business and permit me to talk negatively about them then stop to help me.they even encouraged me to hit the net and start submitting reviews.this is sort of callous negligence is not what any kind of consumer should endure.at this point, what reason do i have to perform the service?what reason do i have to keep my car?what reason do i have to ever shop with their brand again?

The power windows in my 2006 jeep liberty have a design defect.the original design includes a plastic part which breaks and allows the window to fall down into the door.my driver-side passenger window has been held up with tape for the past 12 months.i recently had to pay $250 to have the driver's-side window regulator replaced.researching online i have seen incidents where owners have had to have the same window replaced two or three times at $300-$500 per incident.mopar body service bulletin 23-008-09 and 23-014-08 detail the issue and chrysler's correction.please let me know ([xxx]) if this is subject to a nhtsa safety recall or of i should start a class-action lawsuit to correct this defect.there is an aftermarket kit which replaces the faulty plastic part with a steel part at http://www.steigerperformance.com.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

I was driving home christmas morning and a few miles before i got home the lower and higher ball joints separated from each other.i had no control of the vehicle, thankfully there was no one else on the road with me. I was headed straight on road when incident happened. Vehicle bounced many times before coming to a stop off the road. I was informed later after incident that this vehicle had a recall for what i had just described above. Vehicle was bought used from dealership and have no record or info if this recall being fixed.

I got a safety recall notice last 7 months for trailer hitch to be fixed on my jeep liberty 2006. Till dater the final notice nd appointment has not arrived. Sacred driving the car with hitch problem.
Over the course of the nine years i have owned this liberty, each of the 4 power windows have failed multiple times.the windows simply fall down freely without warning, and can not be placed back in an upright, closed position. This has occurred twice on each front window, and on each the left/rear and right rear windows it has happened three separate times.though this is an ongoing and known safety and security issue, there has been no service bulletin or recall as far as i know. Chrysler/jeep customer service and local dealer are unwilling to recognize the problem or cover the repairs. Jeep quotes us over $600 for the repair before reducing the estimates, due only to my persistent complaints. I understand there has been a class action suit brought by others on this very issue.
Left rear window fell with a loud bang. Car has never been off road and garaged. Mileage around 30,000. Dealer fixed it for a charge of $550.00.i have been on line and find thatthis is a continuing problem because ofdefect in the window controller. This is a defect and it is wrong for customers to be saddled financially with this issue. Vin#[xxx]. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

The vehicle was in need of new brakes, rotors, parking brake shoes and hardware at 93000 miles. A grinding noise from the rear drivers side braking system was present when in motion and assumed to be warped rotors. When the rotors were removed it was found that the parking brake backing plate and the bolts that secure it have rusted to the extent that the plate is loose and no longer secured, which makes the parking brake defective and is a serious safety concern. This appears to be a very common problem and for a vehicle under 10 years old and 100000 miles to have parts rust so severely that they fail is an issue that chrysler should address, as it is obvious that this part was not made to last.

My 2006 jeep liberty has a serious problem with the window regulators and lift plates.june 1, 2010, was the first regulator to go out.the second one went out shortly after that.now the first one has dropped again.the first time, i paid over $400 for the repair.the second one was covered by chrysler completely, and they reimbursed me $333 for the first repair when the second repair was done.they are going to "consider" reimbursing me for this third one, but i have to jump through all of their hoops for it to be considered.this is a serious problem that is affecting many many liberty owners. There should be an extended warranty on these regulators and plates.my daughter is driving this car and should not have to be concerned with whether her windows are going to stay up.this is a serious safety issue.nhtsa should demand that chrysler either recall these or at bare minimum put an extended warranty on all libertys for these parts.ugh.this is ridiculous.oh, and we bought the car used in november 2009.for all we know, multiple regulators might have been put on this car in its first 36,000 miles before we bought it.

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.

I bought a 2006 jeep liberty limited on 8-20-09 in excellent condition with approximately 50,000 miles. Before i even drove the car off the dealerships lot, the rear driver's-side window/window regulator failed rendering the window inoperable. Dealership did not have part and had to seal in up position so as not to fall, while part is being ordered. Upon extensive research on the internet on various highly respected car review/rating sites, i have learned that the 2006 jeep liberty has a known defect in quality of window regulator design and material used which causes windows to drop into doors or cease operating routinely on average of every 2-3 months. Yesterday while driving, my rear passenger window dropped while i was driving 65 mph on a major highway in traffic. I was subsequently startled to the point i swerved, and narrowly missed hitting another car which would have caused a multiple car collision on a major interstate. I have since taped my window in the "up" position until i can resolve this issue with dealer. Dealership has informed me that they will only cover this first replacement/repair, and that i will be responsible for future window regulator repairs of $500.00 each. This is absolutely unacceptable. A company/dealership should stand 100% behind their product and should certainly address potential safety issues resulting from something as critical as this. The known window regulator failure could cause accidents, bodily injury, theft/vandalism issues, and depreciation and degradation of vehicle interior due to weather damage. I will be filing complaints with state attorney general and car manufacturer/corporate headquarters. A safety recall should immediately be issued, and these window regulators should be redesigned with something other than plastic that has proven to repeatedly fail. While certainly an inconvenience of time, and a financial drain and stress to consumer, this is most assuredly a very serious danger to occupants & other drivers.
Repeated window regulator failure.
[xxx]: complaint about jeep backing plates: 2006 jeep liberty vin # [xxx].i am writing about a safety problem we encountered over the past few weeks. On 2 separate occasions; 8-13 and 9-3-15 i almost drove off the road when suddenly my vehicle began to shake,loud, clamoring noise occurred, which made it imperative that i pull to the side of the road/await assistance. The problem was that the backing plates had corroded and rusted to such a severe degree the car was inoperable without expensive repairs (557.97 each time).the close timing of theseincidents show that the lifespan of these parts were not made to last. Jeep declined the request to reimburse expenses paid, and failed to address the bigger safety concern. I worry someone will not be as lucky when this problem occurs. It is a very dangerous situation when a vehicle <10 yrs old used solely as a passenger vehicle, is made of such poor quality parts that they literally rust off the vehicle while it is in transit.in doing research on the extent of these backing plate issues, i see that there have been a significantcustomer complaints from a quality, financial, and safety perspective, yet i see that nothing has been done to rectify this issue. It is my view that i should have been notified of this quality issue before i almost had accidents twice within a 3 week period. This make and model has been the subject of several consumer safety recalls, i am surprised that this has backing plate issue hasnot been brought to attention of owners so that it could be resolved in an expeditious manner at the cost of jeep corp. This is an issue that their company was aware of and parts should not ?rot? off quality vehicles. Jeep responded on 9-29-15 and failed to mention the safety issue related to this problem. I attached their letter via attached file. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

We never had any problems with the steering on our 2006 jeep liberty until we had a severe cold snap (jeep was bought in fl and now resides in de) and then all of a sudden it developed a screeching, straining noise in the steering and all around driving.it didn't matter what speed we drove the noise was always there and consistent, whether you turned a corner, put on the brakes, backed up or drove on the road normally almost sounded like the brakes were dragging but we had the brakes changed in april 2013. Took jeep to our auto repair shop and they diagnosed the vehicle with bad upper and lower ball joints. Don't understand why this would happen all of a sudden but in ended up a very costly repair. Enjoy our jeep but if there was any recalls for ball joints we were never notified.
Ball joint on right front lower control arm broke while driving causing vehicle to swerve and make a loud grinding sound. Tires had been rotated a few weeks prior and there was no noticeable wear or looseness in the steering or suspension.

Have already filed a complaint. Updating information. Complaint #11105312. My vehicle was manufactured 9 days after the cutoff for the 2006 recall # 06v288000. My vehicle had the failure of the front lower control arm ball joint. It was not art of the 2006 recall however, it is part of the current recall for the rear lower control arm ball joints. The original cutoff build date was march 15, 2006. My vehicle was manufactured just 9 days later on march 24, 2006. It seems far too much a coincidence that my vehicle has the same rear ball joints that are subject to recall and replacement, which chrysler has done, but the front ball joints were not covered in the original recall. I was going 35mph when the part failed. The failure came without any warning and was instantaneous. The ball joint broke and instantly pierced the alloy rim and deflated the tire. Had i been going 70mph, i would have flipped and rolled instantly. Furthering the issue is as best i can determine, the front and rear ball joints are the same part. I am reporting that since my initial complaint, i found out my vehicle was built a mere 9 days after the original recall cutoff date.
I was leaving out of my drive way when the driver side lower ball joint once again broke. I replaced this part just one year and one month ago.
I was in motion in parking lot and turned my wheels to turn and all of sudden my tire came off due to the lower ball joint coming off.then it cost me to have it to we'd to my house. *dt
We are the original owners of the jeep liberty 2006 that had a recall on the ball joints and stabilizer bars in 2006.of course, we had the vehicle repaired when the jeep was only a few months old.it may have had less than 1000 miles on it at the time.when visiting the dealer on dec 2, 2014 for an oil change and tire balance.i was informed that the ball joints on driver's and passenger's side of jeep were in need of replacement at a cost of 1100.00(we only have 61,600 miles on jeep) i was shocked that a vehicle that has been garage kept and only driven by the mom of the family around town of about 6000 miles a year could incur such a drastic problem.this is a valid safety issue with the integrity of the recall.the repair should have a lifetime warranty or at least 100k miles.there is absolutely no way, these ball joints disintegrated without being faulty from the being.my question lies if my vehicle was really taken care of, or was it just looked at because it was brand new at the time.our liberty has had full synthetic oil changes and treated with the utmost care.so it really saddens me that chrysler has such "safety" issues.of all things that can go wrong with a car, when it refers to a previous recall, it's obvious the issue was never really addressed.

I have a dealership converted right hand drive jeep liberty. I was slowing down pulling up to a mailbox and the left lower ball joint snapped in half. Two days later i was pulling away from a mailbox and the right lower ball joint snapped in half. Both times i was in motion. Luckily, i was going slow and they were on back roads. I had a mechanic check all joints prior to them breaking and he said everything looked fine. My husband and father even checked after him. I checked my vin number and it was not listed.
Purchased 2006 jeep liberty brand new, it is used only seasonally. Garage kept, approximate mileage is 39,300 miles. Safety recall on 2006 jeep liberty for upper and lower ball joints. The vehicle is dangerous.when turning, steering wheel does not come back except manually.chrysler advises my vin number is not included in the recall. I have seen that comment several times on this site.this is not my first issue with jeep vehicles. We went to the jeep dealer who stated there are no open recalls, we contacted chrysler who stated there are no open recalls.there are 10 recalls on this vehicle, whenever notified it was brought to jeep. The suspension issue is a safety recall on 2006 jeep liberty and conveniently my vin number is not part of the recall. A garage kept seasonally used vehicle properly maintained with 39,000 miles has this issue and is now being repaired at my expense. Chrysler needs to be investigated. Please advise what other info is needed.
I've had lower ball joints, bushing and control arms already replaced once in 2017 and now they are out again.i've been told by mopar that my 2006 liberty was made 5 weeks after the last one involved in the recall.this is inexcusable.i've had 3 window regulators replaced. This is a fatality waiting to happen if i drive. I started hearing and feeling the ball joints going bad about 2 weeks ago. I hardly have driven it since i work from home now. Can chrysler see all these complaints about the ball joints and still not add these 06 jeep's to that recall. This is not good business at all. Also just had front brakes done 1 year ago and they need replaced already. Ignition - my key will not come out of the ignition unless i push on the ignition cable. Please help me to get these problems fixed. This is unacceptable from chrysler.

We purchased a used 2006 jeep liberty last year. Last night we went to drive it up the road and the right front passenger side tire disengaged from the steering knuckle and the ball joint disconnected. Luckily enough we weren't driving very fast otherwise it could have caused injury considering the tire is now almost at a 90 degree angle and we can't move the car. I understand the statute of limitations is 8 years after the original purchase date, i would like to know if i can get a manufacturer repair done free of charge, and would rather have it done at a dealer knowing they would have the correct parts. Normally my 1 year old is in the car, luckily he wasn't last night, but would like to know if i am entitled to repairs.

Original owner drives 5000 miles per year, errands, stay-at-home mom, parked in garage during vehicles life.in dec 2014 took to dealer for tire rotation and balance.was told ball joints bad on both front wheels and upper control arms needed replaced @ 60,000 miles.when liberty was brand new took to dealer for recall f-22 and was there maybe 30 mins.was told good to go....vehicle currently has 65,000 and have received second opinion from reputable mechanic who states the driver's side is worse than passengers and should be replaced, that this is either a "failed recall" or premature wear.with my mileage being so lite, this defect would have initiated long before it should have.the average miles a person drives is 12000-15000 a yr which would have put this defect occurring 3 yrs after initially recalled. The replacement parts are faulty themselves or jeep isn't being honest about the life cycle of this recall.i cannot believe a company would allow people to drive vehicles with gas tanks ready to explode and ball joints about to come unglued any moment....

Recall regarding front lower ball joint; 06v288000.while at firestone during a routine oil change and check up, i received notice of a recall on my car - i wasi went to the nearby jeep dealership and they told me it was not applicable for my car even though i showed them the paperwork from firestone directly. Jeep did not fix my lower ball joint and then approximately two weeks later, i was driving to school and my car jolted as if i hit a pot-hole but the road was clear. I turned on my hazard lights and pulled over to inspect. My tires were not low on air there was nothing abnormal under the hood. I parked my car and looked underneath to find a very obvious dislocation. I called a friend who could identify what part it was exactly and he said it was my lower ball joint. My car was a safety hazard and has become a huge hassle to deal with and jeep is refusing to take responsibility. It is being repaired in a shop now and i am seeking reimbursement from jeep.

A loud "bang" was heard. Front driver end tilted and down on tire. Lower ball joint failed and detached and cut tire. There is a recall for this year but chrysler said not this vin # but it is the exact thing that happened that is described in the recall.

[xxx]: complaint about jeep backing plates: 2006 jeep liberty vin # [xxx].i am writing about a safety problem we encountered over the past few weeks. On 2 separate occasions; 8-13 and 9-3-15 i almost drove off the road when suddenly my vehicle began to shake,loud, clamoring noise occurred, which made it imperative that i pull to the side of the road/await assistance. The problem was that the backing plates had corroded and rusted to such a severe degree the car was inoperable without expensive repairs (557.97 each time).the close timing of theseincidents show that the lifespan of these parts were not made to last. Jeep declined the request to reimburse expenses paid, and failed to address the bigger safety concern. I worry someone will not be as lucky when this problem occurs. It is a very dangerous situation when a vehicle <10 yrs old used solely as a passenger vehicle, is made of such poor quality parts that they literally rust off the vehicle while it is in transit.in doing research on the extent of these backing plate issues, i see that there have been a significantcustomer complaints from a quality, financial, and safety perspective, yet i see that nothing has been done to rectify this issue. It is my view that i should have been notified of this quality issue before i almost had accidents twice within a 3 week period. This make and model has been the subject of several consumer safety recalls, i am surprised that this has backing plate issue hasnot been brought to attention of owners so that it could be resolved in an expeditious manner at the cost of jeep corp. This is an issue that their company was aware of and parts should not ?rot? off quality vehicles. Jeep responded on 9-29-15 and failed to mention the safety issue related to this problem. I attached their letter via attached file. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

As i had just exited the florida's turnpike north bound at kendall drive in miami and attempted to enter the town and country mall at about 20 mph, the front passenger side ball joint of my 2006 crd 4x4 jeep liberty came apart causing the vehicle to lock the front wheel as the steering arm with part of the ball joint enter and landed inside the rim and the tire, perforating it and preventing the tire from turning causing the jeep to almostbuck like a horse sending us head first towards the windshield. Thankfully, it did not happen 45 seconds earlier when my family and i were on the express way driving 65 mph...it would have been catastrophic! this equipment/part failure is known as recall f-23 by chrysler/jeep and they are well aware of it!! i was never aware of such recall !! chrysler/jeep, after one month at their dealer continue to refuse to fix the collateral damage on the vehicle (rim, etc) created by their defective part!! using as an excuse that the factory warranty is over when it has nothing to do with that. Chrysler sent an "independent" inspector to view the vehicle. This "independent" inspector's bill is paid by chrysler. This equipment failure is extremely dangerous!! and could be fatal!!! please help!! at this time i only want my jeep fixed properly, and thatchryslerhonors the traditional jeep quality and commitment to their customers!! a letter has been sent to chrysler claims after multiple attempts to solve this problem in person and via telephone. No results!! updated 06/04/14
On friday, 02/15/19, traveling back from austin to houston, tx, with my 4 year old son for my weekend visitation, i had stopped at the entrance to my apt complex and was waiting for the access gate to open to enter. Turning right and elevating slightly to enter my complex, i heard a loud grinding noise and felt the front passenger side of my vehicle lower. I thought i had managed to run over the curb along the public street and tried to reverse when the same loud grinding noise could be heard. I immediately stopped, placed the car in park, and then got out of the vehicle to inspect. I could see that the wheel was folded inward towards the vehicle. Looking under the car i could also see the lower control arm now resting on the ground on the passenger side.i had zero idea what could've caused this but was extremely thankful it had not occurred while i was traveling in excess of 80 mph on the hwy with my son in the back seat. The vehicle was still on the street in front of the back entrance to my apt complex and a passerby stopped to see if he could help. He recognized the source of the problem and told me that my passenger wheel had separated from the ball joint. He mentioned that he had seen this happen to number of other vehicles. A local harris county sheriff officer arrived on the scene and i called my state farm insurance roadside assistance to have my vehicle towed.the vehicle was towed to a nearby a nearby dealership, autonation jeep/chrysler. On monday, 02/18/19, i stopped by the dealership and was told that the wheel separation had caused damage to a number of components. I began researching on-line and found out that a previous nhtsa campaign had been opened in 2006 that centered around the exact problem my vehicle experienced;nhtsa campaign#: 06v288000, daimler/chrysler recall#. F23. This recall needs to be extended & additional owners notified.
The driver side ball joint has broken 7 times in 1 year and has been replaced. Using 4 different mechanics assuming it was the mechanic. This has happened each time while driving. The last mechanic put an additional nut and has assumed to work. He also indicated that he has repaired other jeep liberty's with same problem in one case he welded it on, i have seen 3 others in my small town that you can see they also have a driver fender that is damaged as mine is when the ball joint breaks and tires pushes wheel fender off. This is not an isolated problem and can not believe this issue has not been addressed in a recall,it asks for a date, well the first time was spring of 2017 since then it has happened 6 additonal times

(1) front right side of jeep liberty dropped down on tire(2) tire was flat and jeep ran off road(3) investigator only looked for open pot-hole or construction and did not look for any defective situation.ball joint defect was reported to public over 5 months later.i kept the tire which has unusual slicing through the inside edge with a few penetrations within that area and all perfectly lined up with each other.i took pictures of the tire assembly area in case there would be any indication of faulty parts.investigator only sited tire hit something and blew out as told to me by the state farm claim agent.follow-up of this case was rejected by same claim agent because ball joint is not available to inspect.my complaint to them saying they are not reviewing the evidence i did show them including pictures from the scene which i still think show if their was a failure of this nature or not.they have another claims agent looking into it now.until they follow this up i consider this accident to be falsely reported to your agency.

My liberty has 3 recalls, 2 having do with big safety issues- fire and tires detaching. I first called planet dodge (miami, fl) for service appt.; gave vin and advised of recalls- surprise! when i arrived for my appointment; they said the parts were on back order! today i called tamiami jeep to make an appointment and was told 1)it's very dangerous as tires may detach 2) they have some parts, but not some bolt, if that is required! question- if these are mandatory recalls and on such potentially safety compromising parts- how can the parts be on back order for 3 months!!(this will be my first visit to tamiami for service appt-but was already advised not all parts available- what's the use of making a appointment if they is a nationwide of a part to repair a recall?what happens if my tires detach or my car has "underbody fire" as per my most recent notice?i would appreciate a reply via email and i would like somebody to investigate how service departments can run out of parts that have mandatory recalls. I was not told at planet dodge how serious this was and have been driving around waiting for the parts to arrive.(lower ball joint).

Initially vehicle began making a rear clunking sound over small bumps in the road. Took vehicle back to dealership several times. No problem found. On march 13,2009 while driving to work on highway, vehicle began to sway from side to side uncontrollable at speeds of 40-45 mph. Took vehicle to dealership. Service manager drove vehicle and agreed something was seriously defective. Dealer has replaced several components under warranty, yet vehicle still has swaying problem. Vehicle is still at dealership since march 13,2009. Dealer said they are still waiting on an answer from chrysler/jeep. I emailed chrysler several times complaining of prior problems. Recently dealer was at a lost for answers and felt the new shocks that were installed by owner were defective. Other shocks were installed by the dealer and still had the same problem. Dealer then began to blame the new tires. Still the same problem. Vehicle is not safe to drive on the road. Uncontrollable and unstable. Vehicle now sits in the service department waiting on the manufacturer to solve the issue. Vehicle is still under factory warranty.

Intermittent problem with abs/electronic stability system setting warning lights on dash and disabling abs/esp.warning lights illuminate, and turn off randomly.malfunction has now lead to failure of abs, causing loss of vehicle control while braking.abs cycled without need, and improperly, causing uneven braking and violent, uncontrolled swerving of vehicle.required removal of abs pump fuse to make vehicle drivable again.this occurred under normal braking from ~45mph to a red light.had this occurred at freeway speeds, or under an emergency stop, there would have almost certainly been an accident.owner forums report this as a common problem.

Have been waiting to have recall completed on my jeep liberty 2006 for trailer hitch since last summer, still my dealer tells me chrysler has not supplied the parts. This ridiculous!i recently got another recall notice advising to contact my dealer, which i did, still no parts and have no idea when they will be in, and are unwilling to contact me when parts arrive.
I've to replace the rear tail light assembly 4 times, it keeps blowing out the brake and tail light.i've also had to purchase 5 a/c compessors for this truck and the abs, traction light stays on.
Why isn't my jeep on the recall? how do i know it does not have the same problem as all the other jeep liberties.
Could not remove key from ignition. Mechanic discovered cable from shifter to ignition broken. Mechanic also discovered piece within shifter broken that allowed shifter to move in and out of park without depressing brake.
Window regulator keeps failing.the first time it happened was in 2010. I have had 4 regulators replaced since i bought the car in 2006. I now have both driver side windows that are broken and will be fixed next week when parts come in. This is now the 5th and 6th regulators i have had to have don. Very aggravating!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My blower motor resistor is partially inoperative. There was a issue with the blower motor that was a recall item and it was addressed in this car by previous owner but i believe the blower motor should have been replaced also
The clutch ignition, power switch of my truck keeps stalls. The vehicle don'tstart, when the clutch pedal is pushed down. Also the engine crank and start without the clutch pedal being pushed down causing the vehicle to unexpectedly lurch. I was notified by a dealer after inspection that said problem is a manufacturer problem, that was on recall. However said my vehicle vin# could not be located with the recall. I called the manufacturer on 1-800-992-1997, and was told i have to pay for the repairs. I will highly appreciate your immediate intervention.
We all own cars.my car has this problem where the power windows suddenly stop working.in other words, i can lower my window and have it suddenly decide to not come back up, leaving me with a vehicle subject to all kinds of theft.this problem has happened thirteen times now on my 2006 jeep liberty and chrysler expects me to pay $475 for each repair.i want chrylser to provide this service for me free of charge, only because they did the first twelve times.without this support, i am in a position where i cannot keep my car and cannot afford a new one.do you know what it feels like to lower your car window and have it suddenly not come back up?especially in the cold of winter?the customer service center gave me every excuse they could find to not help me out.and they also told me i was being pretentious.how would you feel if this was how a car manufacturer treated you?i come from a family of jeep owners and chrysler (the mother company) would rather lose my business and permit me to talk negatively about them then stop to help me.they even encouraged me to hit the net and start submitting reviews.this is sort of callous negligence is not what any kind of consumer should endure.at this point, what reason do i have to perform the service?what reason do i have to keep my car?what reason do i have to ever shop with their brand again?
Abs, bas/esp, tcs indicator lights illuminate, vehicle loses power, brakes are applied ( most likely right front as car pulls to right) releasing throttle cancels the braking. As throttle is reapplied sameaction is repeated. So far it has only occurred at speeds< 35 mph. Should it occur in slippery road conditions it most likely result in loss of control.in researching the problem on the internet, it seems to be or is becoming a more common occurence which fca is not addressing. If you read the other complaint of the same problem it dates back a few years, yet there doesn't seem to be anything done to correct it. Some complainants say they have been unable to have it corrected even at jeep dealerships, others report it's something called the clock spring that is causing the problem and the parts to repair it aren't available. Having just recently had fca's gas tank solution corrected, i hope a fix for this won't take as long. I neglected to say this was not a one-time event in as much as it happens now on an almost daily basis. A local shop checked for fault codes but there were none in memory; i have it scheduled for further tests 09/16/2015.
Power windows of jeep liberty 2006 4x4 failed a second time. After driving on highway i realized that rear window on passenger side slid down into door and could not be pushed up again.this had happened the first time in july 2008 and was repaired under warranty. The window regulator was replaced. The failing of the power windows is a safety issue. The car can not safely left alone closed because the window always will slide down without warning-> rain damage, theft.load can get damaged or fall out of the car, kids or pets can get hurt. The dealership states that the whole window assembly needs to be exchanged ($750) although the window is not damaged. This failure of the window regulators is common on 2006 and older models. Jeep has to do a recall and provide reliable and safe power windows on liberty 2006 and older models.
From the date i picked up the car, the brakes gave off a "moan". This is a recognizable noise, as a brake problem. This occurs mostly in colder weather but is loud and particularly evident when i first take the car out of the garage in the morning when backing up.i have had it back to the dealer at least 5 times for this problem. The dealer has worked with the manufacturer, changes the components to no avail. The manufacturer has washed their hands of the problem but the noise is still there.
I had to roll down the driver side window glass to pay parking fee and then the window never went up. Had to drive in the highway when the window was down completely. I had to replace the window glass prior 4 times for their low quality lift plate on window glass and this time the dealer said it is not covered in 7 yrs extended warranty and asked to pay $500 to fix the regulator. The dealer fixed this lift plate issue prior under 7 yrs extended warranty with low quality material and so this issue reoccured but this time as they found warranty was expired they asked to pay $500 for regulator this time saying it is not under warranty or 7 yrs extended warranty expired. Jeep needs to pay my $500 back for the regulator because i think they are ripping my money off because of their faulty design.
Cannot fill gas tank without gas spewing out even if trying to fill it very slow. I'm only able get a few dollars in a time, but always end up taking a "gas bath." also when i purchased the jeep liberty in 2009 i cannot let the gas auto fill or it will "splash out" when it clicks off. I have to watch it fill and shut off at 16.5 gallons or less if completely empty or i'll have a mess on my hands.
Ignition key interlock. Cant take key out of ignition due to gear shift interlock. Have to leave key in ignition risking vehicle getting stolen.
We never had any problems with the steering on our 2006 jeep liberty until we had a severe cold snap (jeep was bought in fl and now resides in de) and then all of a sudden it developed a screeching, straining noise in the steering and all around driving.it didn't matter what speed we drove the noise was always there and consistent, whether you turned a corner, put on the brakes, backed up or drove on the road normally almost sounded like the brakes were dragging but we had the brakes changed in april 2013. Took jeep to our auto repair shop and they diagnosed the vehicle with bad upper and lower ball joints. Don't understand why this would happen all of a sudden but in ended up a very costly repair. Enjoy our jeep but if there was any recalls for ball joints we were never notified.
While driving the vehicle, i tried to operate front left and right rear windows and they would not roll up or down.i took it to the dealer where i purchased it and they repaired both.however, since then there have been 7 more instances on all windows not operating properly. Currently, the back passenger window is not operating and the dealer refuses to repair it because the vehicle is not under warranty.this is a newly opened dodge, chrysler, jeep dealer in my town.this is just one of the many problems i have experienced with this jeep liberty, including the pcm is currently not functioning properly making the vehicle impossible to drive.at my wit's end with this vehicle.
Had both rear windows and their regulators replaced at 24,612 miles as both windows had fallen into the doors. The repair was made under goodwillas the vehicle was more than 3 years old but under 36,000 miles.the problem with the rear window appeared again before 49,000 miles and i must bear the cost of the repair, which will be well over $300.we live in constant fear of using our power windows as eventually they will collapse into the doors again for another expensive fix and more time waiting for repairs at the dealership. I bought this vehicle new and still own it. The vehicle was moving when the window problem happened.
My friend and i just finished having lunch at restaurant. It was snowing really bad, i brushed snow off and i pressed the left passenger button to let window down so that i can see and the window would not come back up. My friend and i got out of the jeep and pushed window up with our hand. But when i drive it falls down, really bad during the summer time.driving to work one day and the esp, bas and tcs light all come on. Eventually went off but after 4 mins lights came back on.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact received a recall notice in december of 2006 (f23).since then, she has been unable to have her vehicle serviced.the dealer stated that nothing can be done because the parts are unavailable.she has notified various dealers in the area and they have provided the same response.the contact stated that the recall notice only has f23 on it and does not specify what is being recalled.she asked the dealer what the defect pertains to and they stated that no additional information was available.the current mileage is 6,000 and failure mileage was 3,000.
Originally purchased tow hitch and paid for installation at a car repair shop, then later had to stop by a jeep dealership to inspect it.the jeep dealership removed my hitch to install a new one but stole my old hitch that i already paid for.i could have returned the old hitch or used it for my other vehicle but instead they refused to give it back to me and wouldn't even give me back the small rubber tow hitch cover i had on it.so now i'm out the money i paid for the original hitch and now chrysler jeep gets away with stealing my aftermarket add-ons.this is criminal and i should be reimbursed for what they took from me.the dealership was rude to me and told me they had to destroy the tow hitch i brought in.overall, it was the worst service ever.
When it rains my floor board on passenger side floodswith 5 to 6 inches of water. I live in florida & we have had a lot of rain the last month & 1/2. This has never happened until now. Why?????.
The back right passenger window regulator broke and the window fell down into the door.it has been taped for a while because it is astronomically expensive to fix. I see many jeeps driving around all the time with tape on the windows because of this exact issue. After googling the issue it is well known in the jeep community.
In december 2020, i stopped at the post office to drop a letter in the outdoor box.i rolled down my window, deposited the letter, and drove off.as i was raising my driver side window, i heard a loud noise and my window dropped into the car door. It was another broken window regulator. It was 30 degrees outside and i had other errands to run.i had to drive around the city with my window half-way down in the freezing weather. Jeep had a recall in 2010 stating "we are extending the warranty period for window lift plate repairs because some vehicles have experienced repeat concerns with window components.if you have already experienced this window regulator concern and have paid to have it repaired, you may be eligible to receive reimbursement."when i was notified about the recall, i submitted receipts for the three incidents i had with broken window regulators that needed to be replaced.chrysler reimbursed me my full out-of-pocket expenses of $708.28 on january 24, 2011.now i need them to pay me $461.50 for the window regulator that was replaced on april 14, 2021. This is an ongoing problem, and most of all, a safety issue because of the distraction it causes to a driver. I recently read the following: distracted driving is a deadly problem'it led to 3,142 deaths in 2019, according to the most recent statistics from the national highway traffic safety administration (nhtsa).chrysler should extend the window regulator recall on jeeps and reimburse me $461.50 because this is a real safety hazard.what if i had been driving on the interstate at 70 mph and my six pound baby was in his car seat in the back seat, and his window fell in due to a bad regulator?that would be a major distraction to me and a definite safety concern for my baby.this is definitely not a parts problem.this is a huge safety issue.
I would like to make a complaint about parkway chrysler dodge and jeep dealer.i have a recall on my vehicle and i called them back in july of 2007, the said that they had to place an order on the part and it could take up to a month.two month passed and i called them and they told me that it still isn't it and that they would call me when it was ready.this has been going on back and forth since july 2007 and now its jan 2008 and i am getting another recall notice in the mail.i have had other issues with them too.
There is only one window that will come down and it's the front driver side, they all came down and would not come back up. I replaced a regulator in the right back window and it went again so i just had them all pinned up. I've also had to replace the ac compressor twice and just put in 07/06/2018. I had to have a transmission put in 3 years ago. And now the truck is just shutting down when i come to a stop but it will start back up. I had a diagnosis test done and it didn't show any problems, but it's still shutting down and i don't know why. The mechanic said it is probably something electrical or has to do with the computer.
As i was leaving the grocery store i heard a slam noise in the back passenger area of my jeep liberty. I pulled back into the parking and saw that my rear passenger window had fallen into the door. I went online to inquire about it and saw that this is a problem for the majority of 06 jeep liberty owners alike. I called chrysler jeep and because there's no recall on my vin i would have to pay for all repairs myself. It's too expensive and i'm not about to pay for another faulty part like everyone else did. My father paid to fix the rear driver's side window in march. The rear passenger side window fell in august 2015. This needs to be fixed by chrysler due to all of these consumer complaints!
Already had recall rear control arms then jeep was making noise front driver side i went to run corner on city street control arm in front broke blew out tire and rim had to have it tow then not even 6 months later upper control arm passengers identified same thing i was lucky enough to not be on highway electrical problemshad car 3 1/2 yes replace compressor twice and alternator twice every now radio goes off and on lites godangerous car but ca n t afford to do anything about it
Has happened three times now on three different windows.while my daughter was driving down the road she would hear a loud pow and a window would fall down into the door frame.alarming her and scaring her causing her to react in a way that she could have lost control of the vehicle.both back windows and now her front passenger window has been effected.looking on the internet i have found that this is a serious issue among jeep owners.jeep has yet to place a recall on this defective part (a plastic clip on the window regulators).jeep did send me to a dealer to have it checked and stated that i would have to pay a deductible of over $100 per window to have it fixed and i'm told the front windows cost even more!this is a defective part from the factory/dealer causing the windows to drop into the door frame at any time as i stated above, when hers done it she could have wrecked from the sound and then the rush of air coming into her vehicle.she had no idea what had happened and if she had been driving at internet speeds, probably would have lost control due to the incident.i urge you to have jeep fix this issue and not a fix to where it will happen again and again, but a permanent fix!
Jeep liberty renegade 2006 - broken window regulator 3x in 3 year. I bought this jeep brand new and each year, the window comes off the track--in 3/07, 8/08, and now 10/09.
Rear window felll down.was told the regulator is bad.i now see this is a very common problem with the jeep libertys.i have a 2006 jeep liberty.
Numerous mechanical problems all dash lights come on at once between 15 - 50 mph dealer replaced body control module lights still come on now has more problems after repair by dealer. Several recalls on this leased vehicle running up miles back 2 dealer rear window fall down repaired motor tried 2 quit 3 times could be dangerous in traffic seems it loses prime on fuel system . Also excessive tire wear on front tires had it aligned myself was out from factory 10 deg. I have no confidence in dealer 2 fix since i have more problems after last visit. Horn doesn't sound on key pad door lock and fog lights stay on at highbeam after electrical work. Vehicle has locked me out when i shut doors 4 no apparent reasonswitch keys in ignition and motor running.
At 43,305 miles, i had to replace the main bearing oil seal. The cost was $556.91.at this low mileage, this seal should not fail.
Over the course of the nine years i have owned this liberty, each of the 4 power windows have failed multiple times.the windows simply fall down freely without warning, and can not be placed back in an upright, closed position. This has occurred twice on each front window, and on each the left/rear and right rear windows it has happened three separate times.though this is an ongoing and known safety and security issue, there has been no service bulletin or recall as far as i know. Chrysler/jeep customer service and local dealer are unwilling to recognize the problem or cover the repairs. Jeep quotes us over $600 for the repair before reducing the estimates, due only to my persistent complaints. I understand there has been a class action suit brought by others on this very issue.
Key gets stuck in ignition. Forcing customers to pay $1,000 for a mistake made by chrysler. The vehicle was in a parked position and key wont pull to last click. There is a temp fix to this but requires you to pull out plastic from gearshift to push down cable. Jiggling and doing everything you can to remove it will not fix the issue. Chrysler made faulty parts and was told by the dealer they are new parts available in arch 22nd for a permanent solution.
On my way home from work... With my 1 year old in the back seat.. The rear passenger window fell down and would not go up. My husband took it apart and we discovered that the window regulator had failed.. Luckily it was not raining.. And the window did not break.. I did some research trying to locate a part and you have to replace the whole component which costs an average of $145 instead of the plastic clip that probably costs about $1.00. It was also brought to my attention that this is a very common problem in liberty's and i was appalled that even new vehicles were having these problems! in my 10 minute search 20 people reported about having to replace this part several times in more than one window! chrysler should really change something so this product doesn't fail so often in so many vehicles! some day someone will be injured because of this part malfunctioning. Luckily it was not my son!
My lightsare turning on dash. It grabs real bad and acts like it going to die in traffic. Dangerous. My 4 wheel drive will not work.
The 2006 jeep liberty has an exposed gas tank susceptible to exploding on rear-end collision. As the owner of a used liberty i'm concerned for my safety.
2 back window motors don't work
Yesterday, the rear passenger window slid into door, will not come up.can hear regulator but window is stuck in door.vehicle was parked on a residential street, all windows were up, and about 20 minutes later the window had disappeared into the door. I called chrysler but the vin is not part of chrysler's notice to owner's in 2010 regarding faulty window regulators.
Power both rear window regulators malfunction andin same month failed for 2006 jeep liberty sport utility 4wd 4-dr windows failed down while driving , with occupants. It was scary because my family started screaming . And got my attention off of my drivingtry and get off highwayasp to see what happen i had to prop-up window on one then the other did the same about two weeks later. And it was winter very cold going down the road. The glass could have broken and my family could have got cut from glass or sick from cold. This product failed on two windows . Thewindow regulators are defected . And should be recalled it has not beenthe confirmed by a dealer. All they wanted was to sell me parts . There was no other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure.
Every time i fill up the gas tank it overflows. I have spoken to other people who have the same car and they said they have same problem and in one case the person told me that jeep repaired it as part of recall, but i do not see it as a recall specifically, and when i called chrysler about it they said it is not a recall item for the car. This is a liberty submodel
Went to start smoke came out from dash was parked in gargage truck is still in shop ins told me only reason they woul d cover is because is was a long coustomer thy only gave me 883 to repair there are at least 14 codes due to this don't know if they will reset if not i have to pay for repairs i do have fire protection on truckthis is allstate i will send paper work if needed at a later date i have nonealso waiting for check told for me to pay repair shop
Front suspension:lower ball joint was replaced 2006 it has broke again while pulling into garage but is out of recall feel it is due to faulty replacement parts.shift interlock cable and gear shifter: cant remove key from the ignition called chrysler no recall issued for this they will not replace even though if you look in the internet there are lots of jeep liberty owners with the same problem
Current problem:drove vehicle into my garage.gear shift is nowstuck in park; key stuck in ignition.in the past, i have also had air conditioning blower issue (works on level 4 only) for some time and passengers complain of a "plastic" smell when i'm driving.??109,000 miles.
Passenger door window fell down. Linkage/regulator had to be replaced. This has happened to the windows, on all 4 doors, 3-4 times each. This just happened again to the rear drivers side window on 5-10-15.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty each all of my window regulators have broken atleast once in the last 3yrs.my back driver side window has broken twice and my front passengar side window has broken twice.this causes the window to fall and cannot be held up.
Unable to close rear lift gate. Vehicle was not using anti-lock brakes. Vehicle was not using cruise control. Was able to have a 'work around' by using the key fob to release the gate latch in order to close the window. As of saturday may 9,2015, that work around has failed. Key fob is still able to lock/unlock doors and set alarm. Noticed no superficial water damage /leaks around weather strip. Read and noticed several complaints about the rear window latch not closing properly if at all. This is a driving hazard that will surely cause drivers to have infractions and/or accidents. Please advise.
I have been the sole owner of this vehicle purchased new in 2006 and have experienced door window issues occurring 8 times due to "lift plate, and regulator" problems.in investigating other complaint for this model year, window issues seem to be persistent problems.date of occurrence are8/4/07 back window; 11/5/07 front window; 10/29/08 passenger side rear window; 7/16/10 left right window; 8/19/14 right passenger window; 2/7/18 driver window, 7/13/20front passenger window.i contacted chrysler reporting the most recent issue and they stated the vehicle was too old for a active complaint or any reimbursement.i want awareness of this issue to be known and reported.
There is a white powder likesubstance that comes out of the air vents and has an oily texture andan overpowering smell.it clouds the windshield and obstructs my vision.i cannot drive it due to the clouding and smell. This happens when i am driving anywhere, turning, or stationary.i do not know what caused this to happen as i have not had an accident in the car.i can't have it repaired as i cannot afford it. I have a nice vehicle, but cannot drive it in this condition. So the cause is unknown.
The fuel tank has a chance of experiencing a fuel leak duringcertain types of rear end collisions.this could result in a fire.
My windows fall down due to a faulty window regulator. Each window has fallen at least once. My back passenger jeep window has been fixed twice and fell again last year. Originally i was told my windows were fixed via a recall, but when i called last year and again today in reference to my window falling for a third time, i was told the issue was fixed via an extended warranty, which has since expired. I called the chrysler/jeep complaint line today and was told that even though this will be the seventh total time a window on my car will have to be fixed due to the faulty window regulator, i will have to pay to fix the problem out of my own pocket. I understand how an extended warranty works; however, i should not be responsible for fixing something that has already been fixed twice on one window. Not only is this a safetyhazard while driving. Every day i fear someone will gain access to my car and either steal it, or wait until i get in the car and kidnap me or worse. I love my jeep; however, i will not remain a jeep owner for much longer. Thousands of people continuously have this issue. Just because someone hasn't died from it yet doesn't mean a recall shouldn't be placed on the car.
The consumer was driving when the vehicle suddenly accelerated to 65 mph.no amount of pushing on the brakes made the car stop. She was going down a mountain, whizzed past a stop sign, and went around another curve until she came to a major state road with lots of speeding cars. She had to make a decision either to try to merge onto the road or plow into the mountain.she plowed into the mountain and came to a stop where she hit a stop sign at the end of the road inches from the ongoing traffic. Both of her feet were on the brakes the entire time. The vehicle flipped on its side and the engine was still roaring.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving at 20 mph, the accelerator pedal was depressed, but the vehicle accelerated in excess. As a result, the contact crashed into an embankment and a tree. The contact noticed that the accelerator pedal remained depressed after the crash. The contact sustained chest, left arm, and leg injuries that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired.

While applying brake & shifting to reverse, car accelerated in reverse at high speed with no throttle engaged. Brake was pressed the whole time and pumped to stop vehicle, there was no braking. A pole was impacted crushing vehicle. No warnings of this issue. This has left the family in fear of ever driving a jeep.this was a jeep liberty 2006 with less than 70k miles. Well kept maintained vehicle.

On crowded city street applied brakes as someone was starting to cross street in a crosswalk. Engine started to rev up and car would not stop. I went through the crosswalk and managed to stop safely. Tried a few slow speed stops, and car seemed okay. Then a few minutes later at another crosswalk applied brakes. Engine revved up. Had both feet on brakes. Rear brakes seemed to fail. Rear tires started to burn rubber with loud squealing noise. I was able to shift into park. Engine slowed down and was able to drive off afterwards. Made it home (9 miles). Did a few slow stops on the way. Brakes worked okay and engine did not rev. Very concerned about any further driving of this vehicle. Pedestrian lives definitely were in danger.
Air bag indicator light repeatedly turns on and off during vehicle operation.when the speed control was activated, while driving on the interstate, the vehicle continually accelerated almost causing loss of control.
On 2006 jeep liberty renegade activates for no apparent reason, causing vehicle to lose power/choke out/stumble on acceleration. Problem occurredintermittently up to 3 or 4 times a week.tended to happen often when going around corners in 1st or 2nd gear, and sometimes when just going straight.sometimes thelight will flash while the loss of power occured, but sometimes not.. When this occurred pavement wasdry and there were no abrupt manueversno reason for this system to activate.this was a serious safety issue that could cause an accident. Purchased vehicle new from dealer in november '06.dealer acknowledged problemin march '07 , claiming they were waiting for a software update from chrysler. In june '07 i returned to the dealer and addressed the problemagain, and i was told that there were no tsbs, no codes, and they could not duplicate the problem . They did not acknowledge"the problem this time. They acknowledged it in writing on my service receipt in march). Even on the way home from the dealer today it happenedagain when i exited an off ramp from the highway.
My father's jeep liberty turbo diesel automatically & randomly accelerated on its own about 2-3 days on his way to work (similar to the toyota situation).the jeep on-board computer threw up an engine fault code.when he took the car to the jeep dealership, they said his accelerator pedal module was bad and made my dad pay over $300 to get it replace.the jeep had under 50k miles on it and it should be against the law to make customer pay to repair a car that speeds up on its own.are we the only people who have had this problem with a jeep (chrysler) product?we have receipts for the repairs and it should have documented the engine fault code that jeep discovered.
Letter from congressman boucher on behalf of constituent concerning his purchase of a 2006 jeep liberty.*njthe vehicle was sold by the consumer to another consumer who experienced sudden acceleration and subsequently had an accident. The consumer stated everything was fine until she tried to stop at a stop sign at the bottom of a steep hill. The consumer realized thevehicle was not slowing down and barely made the turn. Even after the consumer removed her foot from the accelerator, the vehicle was still accelerating. The consumer stated she tried slamming on the brakes, but to no avail.the vehicle finally stopped when the consumerhit a stop sign and then proceeded to flip over on the right side. The engine continuedto rev loudly and only stopped after the consumer turned the ignition off.
Speedometer has a 5 mph error....manufacturer confirms error and indicates that this amount of error is acceptable.
Esp/bas, abs and skidding vehicle icon lights came on in the instrument cluster! the cruise control stopped working. This is the same issue we had on our 2007 jeep wrangler, which i filed a complaint with the nhtsa, which issued a recall on our jeep. The clock spring module, located under the steering wheel, controls, the abs, esp/bas, cruise control, horn, and air bag! this is a safety issue and should be recalled, like my 2007 jeep wrangler was!
My anti skid, abs, and esp lights are on. The cruise control is not working. Also, at about 50 mph, my front end acts up. I am told that this is a known problem with the clock spring.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving at an unknown speed, the brake, check engine, and anti skid warning lights illuminated. In addition, the cruise control feature was activated, but failed to function. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the clock spring needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to the part not being available. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 125,000. Updated 09/21/15*ljupdated 12/12/2017
On 2/21/08 i took my 2006 jeep liberty to david o'neal automotive to have my vehicle checked as a result of two incidents that had occurred during it's operation and another operational problem. The first incident occurred in the walmart parking lot as i was stopped to allow a pedestrian to cross the parking lot. The jeep accelerated while it was in a stopped position and i had to put the vehicle in park to avoid hitting the pedestrian. On the second incident i was stopped at a light when the jeep once again accelerated on its own. The other problem that i was having with the vehicle is it's inability to accelerate effectively at times. The service advisor advised me that they did get the jeep to duplicate the problem but they did not get a code for the problem.on 2/22/08 i spoke to the service manager for the dealership with regard to the problems i was having with the vehicle, the issue of my having to pay for diagnostic fees and repairs and the safety issues involved with this matter. He advised me to wait until the vehicle repeats the problem and bring it in to see if we can get a code. I notified him that they had already seen the problem repeat itself when i had it in for repair and a code did not activate. He again stated that i should bring it in to see if a code could be retrieved. I asked him, if a code could not beretrieved, what do we do then? he could not give me any definitive answer to this question. On this same date i relayed all of this same information to the customer relations coordinator. In addition i expressed the fact that when the repair bills and diagnostic fees were being charged to me it was okay to proceed without codes but now that i feel that the dealership should be paying for these costs, due to when the vehicle was purchased (1/3/2008) and the nature of the problem (defect), the dealership feels that we cannot proceed without a code.
While i was driving the abs bas esp stopped working and the lights came on. We were living in ft wayne indians at the time and without those features this jeep is flat out dangerous. I had the wheel speed sensor replaced twice but that wasn't it. One dealer rebuilt all four of my brakes and purged the system. That didn't work. I paidfour different dealerships over 3800$ plus rent fees. It still is t fixed.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact experienced unintended acceleration and a crash occurred while traveling 40 mph.the brakes failed to engage and the vehicle drove into an embankment and rolled over.a police report was filed.there were no serious injuries.the vehicle was taken to a body shop and then to the dealer; however, the dealer could not find any error codes for the failure.the manufacturer stated that they could not assist, but offered to send a crash investigator.after sending the investigator, the manufacturer concluded that they could do nothing more to assist.the current and failure mileages were 33,348.
I have a problem with my 2005 jeep liberty diesel failing to stop at the first stop sign in the morning. It has also not stopped after being parked for a few hours.the engine continues to push the vehicle forward into traffic or the intersection/cross walk.i have taken the vehicle to jeep but they cannot duplicate the problem.i have come very close to runningover students on the campus of the university of alabama.i believe this problem is associated with jeep's torque converter problems.my wife has also experienced this problem so it has nothing to do with driving style.this problem will eventually kill or injure someone.
Uncontrolled acceleration.while at a full stop at a red light with my foot on the brake, the engine started to accelerate and the car started jumping as the rear tires 'burned rubber'.pressing harder on the brake did not help.i put the car into neutral and then the engine went back to idle.this is the third instance of this in 5 years (the first was approximately 1/16/09 in nyc, then again on 2/6/12 in nm, and then this one on 10/20/14 in ny.the first time i was at a busy crosswalk by a school.there could have been many injuries.each time the vehicle was at a full stop, the engine at idle and my foot on the brakes when the engine suddenly started accelerating wildly.updated 12/02/14.
The contact owned a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the gear shift would not engage into drive and the vehicle started making a roaring noise. The contact's vehicle lunged forward and struck the preceding vehicle. The brakes seized and the pedal was all the way down to the floor. The police filed a report. There were no injuries. The vehicle was towed to an impound lot. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 137,000. Updated 05/11/16*lj
Esp problem, i been working on the breaks, master cylinder, calipers, brake control,sensors and i don't have a clue what to do.
Unintended acceleration while at a stoplight. Had to turn of the motor to reset.
Upon rapid acceleration to pass another vehicle, this jeep liberty crd accelerator pedal latches and vehicle continues to accelerate regardless of braking or other measures.in order to maintain control you are forced to put vehicle in neutral, pull over at a safe location (if available) and physically pull up, or "unlatch" the accelerator pedal.the dealer has been informed of this problem two previous times and did not take the problem seriously.
I bought a2006 jeep liberty in august of 2014,been having problems with the tires ,which keep seeping air and i have to put air in it every other day. When i press on the foot pedal the car jerks and it speeds up by itself. Couldn't get my key out after it was put in park. Press on brakes and still couldn't get them out. The shift lever moves without pressing on the button that supposed to lock it in place. The date that i put in is for the shift lever which still isn't fixed yet .the other things been going on since i bought the car .
So basically i'm driving my mom to work and about to reach and light and acceleration isn't working and i'm like whatever it's a red light ill just brake so i brake then the light turns green i press the acceleration and nothing it's not moving so then the steering wheel locked up literally couldn't turn it i miss the light turn off the car turn it on it's working i get to a stop sign the same thing happens but the oil light comes on so i'm like ok maybe this then i buy oil then i'mon my way home making a right onto a main road i'm like ok i'll make it and again the acceleration stops working and the steering wheel locks up so before it locks all the way i pullup and then turn it off back on and drive all the way home with the hazards you have no idea how terrifying it was to be on a main road and the acceleration stops like i pressed all the way and it wouldn't increase the speed the steering wheel locked couldn't even slightly turn so it was so scary i'm so scared to drive it and idk what to do or how to fix it that's why i need help
Uncontrolled acceleration 2006 jeep liberty crd.while stopped at a red light, engine idling, foot on the brake, my engine started to wildly accelerate.i held the brake as hard as i could and the rear wheels started spinning and burning runner and the entire car was 'jumping'.after a few seconds of this i put it into neutral and turned off the engine.when i restarted it moments later it was fine.i brought it to my jeep dealer in mt kisco ny but they couldn't ind anything wrong.it hasn't done it again.there was nothing jamming the gas pedal.the car was at a stop and idling with my foot on the brake when the engine suddenly started racing on it's own.

2006 jeep liberty.consumer writes in regards to vehicle front end alignment and brake problems.the consumer stated the vehicle pulled to the left at times, with or without the cruise control on.also, the cruise control would not disengage, when he tapped the brake.
New vehicle, less than 50 miles odometer.engaged cruise control at 55 mph, several miles later tapped brake to disengage cruise control to slow for a turn.brake would not disengage cruise control, neither would the 'off' button on left side of steering wheel.cancel button on right side of wheel did shut off the cruise control.returned to dealer next morning.dealer replaced a 'regulator/solenoid' behind the brake pedal and indicated the original had been incorrectly adjusted/set from factory and that it could not be adjusted by dealers shop.
Multiple repeated failures of power windows, most recently left rear on or about 5/1/2010.we have had to have the same problem repaired on multiple occasions.door fell into window when husband was being admitted to health south rehabilitation hospital two years ago, and neither dealership not extended warranty coverage would cover an emergency repair.we live at an altitude of over 8,000 feet and my husband has had surgeries for brain aneurysms and for lung cancer, which has left him in fragile health.we bought out jeep liberty after his surgeries because he liked the multiple passenger side handles on the renegade model.when a window fails to function properly, it is a major problem for an older man who is very sensitive to cold.this is a known problem that should be addressed by the manufacturer.are we just waiting for a vulnerable person to pass away from exposure?
The window regulator on the front driver's side window suddenly broke while driving as i was rolling up the window, causing the window to crack while halfway down. This is the second time this has happened. Last time it was on a left, rear window. I brought it to tyson's jeep in virginia and they said it is a known problem but not part of a recall. They replaced the regulator and the glass, costing me approximately $500. The parts were available, but are of the same design, so the problem could reoccur at any time.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that while driving 40 mph, the driver side rear window detached and dropped down into the door panel. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vin was not available and the vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 41,600.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4. The contact stated three window regulators previously failed. The drivers front and rear windows were repaired by the dealer who replaced them under warranty. The warranty expired which prevented the remaining windows from being replaced. The manufacturer stated they would not repair the failure; therefore, she had to pay for the repairs.the failure mileage was 5,000 and the current mileage was 50,000.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the rear windows could not be closed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the rear driver side window regulator was replaced. The rear passenger side regulator was not replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and denied assistance with the repairs. The vehicle was not further repaired. The failure and the current mileage was 140,000.
The drivers side back window of my 2006 jeep liberty sport fell down in the door while my wife was driving it on the interstate.the car is only 3 years old and the window is rarely used.we do not have children of passengers in the vehicle that use it.i called the local jeep dealer to find out that it would cost $550 to replace the window and mechanism (the window didn't break, but the new window regulator assembly requires it).my wife and i talked to the service manager and they did pick up 50% of the cost.
Three of the four windows have had the regulators break - the first one repaired under warranty, the second the dealership charged me (even though i had a warranty in effect) and the third window is currently being held in place by gorilla tape (the view out the passenger front window is fortunately not obscured).this window started falling in when we hit a bump driving down i-95 at highway speeds.given the huge number of issues with this model year with the window regulators, it seems inevitable that the window of the final window will give way at some unknown point in the future.why jeep has not addressed this is inexcusable.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the vehicle window lift plates failed and the windows could not be closed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times for the failure. The dealer replaced the window lift plates several times but the failure was not corrected.

The approximate failure mileage was 48,000 and the current mileage was 60,000.
Window regulator failed on driver side rear window in 2007. Regulator was replaced and covered by factory warranty. Window regulator failed on passenger rear window in 2010, not covered by factory warranty.

The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure and the vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 55,000 and the current mileage was 80,000.
2006 jeep liberty seat fabric stains very easily -- water stains. No apparent way to clean it and keep it clean. Also 3 out of 4 window regulators have been replaced.
This is to report a faulty part on the window regulator.three times mine has failed. Twice the left rear window has fallen into the door due to a regulator which was faulty and on the third occasion is was the right rear window that fell. Lucky for me, i was stopped when my windows dropped.when the part fails, the glass just falls down into the door.the cost to repair is $750. At the dealer because you must replace the whole regulator, you cannot replace just the fifty cent part.the alternative which most people do is to tape the window glass up which obscures the vision and is a safety hazard.this is a chronic problem that jeep has known about for years.imagine a mother driving with a child in the rear car seat in a heavy rainstorm and passes a tractor trailer at normal speeds.the window fails and falls. You then have heavy rain and debris coming into the rear window.the mother panics as she is concerned about what is happening to her child and veers into the tractor trailer.these vehicles need to be recalled immediately.the faulty plastic slides need to be redesigned and replaced with a metal slide with neoprene guides.i am not the only one with this problem - a simple internet search will yield hundreds of other individuals who have encountered this problem.i have saved the parts from my door if you wish to inspect them.
2006 jeep liberty window fell down without having any reason.i have read on this website that an investigation does not need a specific number of complaints to start.i am just wondering why a part that cost from 350-600 to replace and has a number of complaints does not have an investigation.this to me seems like a one way for the chrysler dealer decided to start to make money.this vehicle has had all four window regulators replaced in the last year and a half and now the driver side is down again.when will the manufacture or safercar going to step to the plate and do what they say they will do?
I have had to have the window regulators replaced on all 4 windows, with the left rear replaced twice.the first instance was at 28,000 miles, and the second episode occurred at 33,000 miles.a final incidence occurred at 42,000 miles.i was told that jeep is aware of the problem and that it happens in hot areas (like the desert).i was told to leave my windows cracked open so as to prevent the build-up of heat.these events happen as i drive, and in one case, it happened that the window came down while my wife was at work, and she found it after a full day.this created a big security issue as the car could have been vandalized or stolen.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.within six months, the window regulators that power the windows failed.four different regulators had to be replaced.in addition, all of the windows on the vehicle had to be replaced under warranty.the warranty expires in march of 2009 and the regulators continue to fail.the manufacturer stated that they would not repair the regulators for free during the next repair and that no recall was availablefor the windows.the failure mileage was 21,000.
Vehicle: 2006 jeep liberty renegadeissue: all 4 doors have needed the window regulators replaced, one them has been replaced twice. Another one broke towards the end of the warranty period but the dealer would not replace it under warranty because of the mileage on the vehicle when i arrived at the dealership. The vehicle was purchased new in december of 2006, so it has been through 3 years of continuous use and has received 5 new window regulators. It needs a 6th new regulator but the dealership wants to replace the window and the regulator, without any back-up data that suggests this will end the problem. During the last incident, i heard a loud popping sound coming from the back of the vehicle, while driving about 40 mph, but did not notice any immediate issues. The doors were briefly inspected for any damage and looked fine. After coming out of the movie theatre, about 2 hours later, the window had fallen completely into the door.to date the part has not been replaced due to a lack of confidence in the currently available resolution and due to the exorbitant cost. After inspecting the assembly, it appears that the plastic component, which moves along the railing, is not able to successfully capture and maintain a connection with the cable that enables the window the go up and down. Once the two pieces separate there is no way to reconnect them.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the front driver and rear windows failed. The windows could not be closed or opened. The dealer advised that the windows regulators failed and would need replacing.the contact also stated that the rear passenger window failed twice. The dealer previously replaced the rear driver side window regulator but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not further repaired. The failure mileage was 1,411 and the current mileage was 14,510.
Left rear window fell down while the car was parked. This door is seldom used and the window had not been activated since i purchased it in 2006. Chrysler service dept. Stated the regulator had to be replaced.because it was "only" 1200 miles out of warranty, chrysler customer service would cover all but $100 of the cost. Internet search revealed multiple accounts of this issue.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the windows opened violently without being engaged. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 67,000.
Power window regulators on my jeep liberty have failed one after the other .i have now replaced all regulators more than once.
I, like most others owning a 2006 jeep liberty have had several problems with the window regulators that jeep continues to use.i have replaced two rear windows within a week costing about $1000.00 on my vehicle which has low mileage.i consider this a severe safety issue as there is no warning to when the windows fail and objects enter the vehicle at a high rate of speed which could cause a crash or death.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving approximately 50 mph, the rear driver side window fell into the door. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic. The technician stated the rear drivers side window regulator had fractured and would have to be replaced. After the repair the failure recurred twice on the rear driver side window and once on the rear passenger side window. The vehicle was repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 22,000.
We have had this 2006 jeep liberty for just over a year now and has been ok until now. The rear passenger window regulator took a $%[email protected] apart myself and found a broken plastic piece that connects to the drive cable.thought i could find this small plastic part at the dealer and they said i had to by the whole regulator assembly for $244. Even better, while i was in line there was a lady in line for the same reason.that's when i found all kinds of complaints about this same reason on-line.this jeep only has 42,000 miles and should not be having these problems this premature.if chrysler can't replace this part free of charge then this will be the last vehicle we buy from them.chrysler,fix your problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like many jeep liberty owners, i too have a rear driver's window that is taped up to prevent it from falling down into the door. My mileage at the time 32,000. Estimated cost $280.00.
The lift plates on all side windows of jeep liberty vehicles can be defective.the window will unexpectedly completely drop down.chrysler corporation accepts the fact there are window defective lift plates.they extended the vehicle warranty to replace the lift plate parts if they fail.to my knowledge chrysler corporation did not notify owners about the defective parts or the extended warranty.i found this information out when the vehicle was taken in for window repair at the jeep chrysler dealership (the faricy boys chrysler, jeep) on september 18, 2013.chrysler knew all the side window parts were defective, but would only replace the window lift plates that were not working on that day.another side window lift plate on the same vehicle failed on may 30, 2013.when driving the vehicle and a window completely drops down it can startle the driver and is a distraction that could cause an accident.the vehicle was again taken in for repair at the jeep chrysler dealership. The dealership said the extended warranty had expired and the cost of repair needed to be paid by the owner.in summary, chrysler corporation knew the side window lift plates are defective, but would not replace all the defective parts.i am asking the nhtsa to order a mandatory recall and require chrysler to fix all window lift plates on the jeep liberties.a defective lift plate can cause the window to unexpectedly drop down and can present driver confusion and a distraction while driving.this can present a dangerous situation to the health and life of americans.thank you.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the window regulators for both rear windows have failed. The contact stated this was the first time the failure occurred on the rear passenger side of the vehicle, but this was the fourth time that it failed on the rear drivers side. The dealer stated that the failure was normal. The failure mileage was 27000. The current mileage was 46864.
The rear driver side window suddenly, and unexpectedly, fell open from the fully closed position with a loud crashing sound. One open it was unable to be re-closed. Failure in this manner was very startling and can be seen seen as an unnecessary distraction which, in my opinion, constitutes a safety hazard. Upon investigation i found that the part of the mechanism that directly supports the window is made of plastic and further is of insufficient dimension to support the weight of the glass through repeated cycles. The dealer offered me the same inadequate part as replacement which is destined for the same failure.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4.while driving approximately 45 mph, the contact accidentally lowered the rear driver's side window.she attempted to close the window, but was unsuccessful.she pulled over to the side of the road to physically push the window back up; however, the window fell into the door.the vehicle was driven in cold weather with the window down and the contact's toddler in the back seat.the vehicle was inspected by a local mechanic at her residence and she was informed that the regulator needed to be replaced.the dealer has not been notified.the manufacturer advised her to call the senior department, but she received no assistance.the current mileage was 46,000 and failure mileage was 45,975.
The left rear wnidow falls down at anytime.my children could fall out the window.
2006 jeep liberty limited the passenger window regulators are constantly breaking and thus the window falls all the way down into the door(s). Ihave to drive with the broken window open or use tape or plastic bag to keep rain out when the weather is bad until i can get to the dealership. In the past 3 years since i have owned the car, i have had to bring in my car on 6 separate occasions for the same exact problem. All the previous replacements were done under warranty. Each door window, except for the driver's window has broken twice and today makes it three time for the rear left side passenger window. I feel the safety of my car in is jeopardy when the window is fully down and do not feel safe not being able to put it up when driving, especially at night. This model's windows and regulators have caused many people the same problem and this is a manufacturing defect according to this sites 175 complaints registered so far for this problem. Jeep should be required to replace these regulators for everyone for free for the life of the car unless they can manufacture a part that will not break within 8 months of installation. The dealer i go to states that the car is now out of warranty and that i must pay a $150"co-pay" to have it fixed as a "goodwill" cost covering of jeep-chrysler but this is unacceptable to pay for their shoddy design and parts that keep breaking.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the window actuator continued to fail on the vehicle. The rear passenger side was replaced three times and the rear driver side twice. The contact stated that the window could only be partially opened when the window was operating properly, but the window would fall all the way down into the door panel when it failed. The dealer advised the contact that the failure was common and the manufacturer would have the window regulators replaced. The failure mileage was unknown, but the current mileage was 77,000.
The contact owns 2006 jeep liberty.the contact was driving 15 mph when the passenger side front window opened and fell into the door panel abnormally. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who confirmed that the regulator needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted, but the vehicle was not repaired. The failure and currentmileage was 73,000 .
The car was sitting in the parking lot when we tried to put the rear driver side window down it slid down an inch but did not keep going.when we tried to put the window back up, it did not move but the motor kept spinning.it's a safety issue because i usually have my child riding in the backseat and stuff can fly into the car and cause injuries.i took the car to the dealership and they replaced it for around $400.they acknowledged the problem as being common but that the vehicle was not part of a recall or extended warranty that was given to older models.i called the national chrysler hotline and they told me that they can not escalate my issue unless it occurred more often.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated the rear drivers side automated window failed to operate. The contact planned to take the vehicle to an authorized dealer to be repaired. In august of 2010, the rear drivers side window regulator was replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 52,000.
I bought a 2006 jeep liberty limited on 8-20-09 in excellent condition with approximately 50,000 miles. Before i even drove the car off the dealerships lot, the rear driver's-side window/window regulator failed rendering the window inoperable. Dealership did not have part and had to seal in up position so as not to fall, while part is being ordered. Upon extensive research on the internet on various highly respected car review/rating sites, i have learned that the 2006 jeep liberty has a known defect in quality of window regulator design and material used which causes windows to drop into doors or cease operating routinely on average of every 2-3 months. Yesterday while driving, my rear passenger window dropped while i was driving 65 mph on a major highway in traffic. I was subsequently startled to the point i swerved, and narrowly missed hitting another car which would have caused a multiple car collision on a major interstate. I have since taped my window in the "up" position until i can resolve this issue with dealer. Dealership has informed me that they will only cover this first replacement/repair, and that i will be responsible for future window regulator repairs of $500.00 each. This is absolutely unacceptable. A company/dealership should stand 100% behind their product and should certainly address potential safety issues resulting from something as critical as this. The known window regulator failure could cause accidents, bodily injury, theft/vandalism issues, and depreciation and degradation of vehicle interior due to weather damage. I will be filing complaints with state attorney general and car manufacturer/corporate headquarters. A safety recall should immediately be issued, and these window regulators should be redesigned with something other than plastic that has proven to repeatedly fail. While certainly an inconvenience of time, and a financial drain and stress to consumer, this is most assuredly a very serious danger to occupants & other drivers.
I drive a 2006 jeep liberty (4 door).both windows on both backseat passenger doors fell into the doors on more than two occasions in the last 6 months.the glass windows fall into the doors and will not come back up.
Passenger side front window fell down. Upon investagatoin found regulator wire came out.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving at approximately 65 mph, all four windows would gradually slide down. The contact engaged the power buttongs for the windows and although she could hear a noise, the windows would not move back up. The windows were so far down that they could not be pulled up. The vehicle had not been repaired at the time of the complaint. The manufacturer stated that they would assist with the repair costs. The current mileage was 25,045. The failure mileage was approximately 21,000.
The driver's rear window regulator broke and now the window will not go up and down and slides down by itself. Chrysler only sells the motor and regulator and everything as one package, so even though i can hear the motor working and it is most likely a broken piece of plastic, because that is what jeeps use for regulators, that is causing the problem im going to have to pay 300 dollars to buy everything. If chrysler would use a metal bracket as a regulator instead of a cheap piece of plastic there would not be so many problems with jeep liberty's window regulators breaking. And since they don't sell regulators by themselves it is almost like chrysler is doing it just to make more money and that they don't care about their customers at all. It is a little bit ridiculous that they have not recalled these shotty quality regulators or even addressed the problem at all.
2006 jeep liberty. The window regulator failed again, this is the third time on the passenger side front. Every window has failed at least once, some twice. This should be recalled. I have searched the internet for the last couple of years on this and have found hundreds of similar owners with this problem yet nothing seems to be done about it. Where is the quality and care for the consumer?
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact statedwhile driving approximately 35 mph, the rear drivers side window fell into the door panel. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who informed the contact that the window motor failed. The vehicle was repaired. The failure since recurred on two occasions; on the rear driver's window and the rear passenger window. The vehicle was taken back to an authorized dealer to be repaired on each occasion. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 25,000.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving 65 mph, the rear driver side window independently rolled downwards and failed to roll back up. In addition, the rear passenger side window rolled down independently and failed to roll back up. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the actuators needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 82,000.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While driving approximately 30 mph, the rear driver side window fell into the door panel abnormally. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics where the technician replaced the window. Approximately one year later, the failure recurred on the rear passenger side window. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the window was replaced.the approximate failure mileage was 50,000.form returned no change
On 3/20/10 the front passenger side window fell down while car was parked with dog inside in a snow storm in parker, co.my dog jumped out and was recovered by animal control. Several items in my jeep were covered in snow/ice including paperwork and official forms for for my work that has since been ruined due to water damage. This is the 5th time i have experienced issues with window regulators in this same vehicle. In august of 2009, the rear dirver's side window had to be replaced. At this time chrysler told me that defective parts were being used in libertys but there is no recall and the replacement option was to replace the entire glass and regulator. In december of 2009, the drivers side window began rolling up crooked and was replaced. The passenger window is yet to be replaced as i am waiting on a response from chrysler to see if they will cover the $500.00 repair cost since this is a recurring problem. *dt
Power window failure. Front left two different times. Rear left two different times. Same problem each time. Window stops going up or down with power switch and then window falls into the door. Safety issue is that this happened while driving on the interstate. First instance 1/3/07 10,182 miles: 2nd instance 4/20/07 16,789 miles; 3rd instance 11/08 61,777 miles; 4th instance 1/09 64,000 miles. First two times were repaired under warranty. Last two times are my responsibility. (vehicle is out of warranty due to high mileage.)
It is common that 2006 jeep liberty window regulators fail frequently. I have had all 4 of my windows fail; two of the windows have failed a second time following dealer repair.although the rear windows are rarely used, both have fallen completely into the door while i was driving.this is clearly a dangerously flawed design that should be corrected by jeep/chrysler.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that after closing both rear doors, the windows detached and fell into the door panel abnormally. The vehicle was taken to the dealer twice where the dealer confirmed that both side window regulators failed and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted but the vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 31,000 and the current mileage was 62,000.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that while driving 15 mph, the rear passenger window detached from the window regulator. The dealer was notified and stated that the failure was not covered by a warranty. The vehicle was diagnosed by a private mechanic, who stated that the cable wires fractured. The contact also stated that this was the third window that suffered from this failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileages were 92,000.
Driving to work, back passenger window begins to slide down on it's own - completely down by the time i get to work - power control runs but not moving the window up and down.called dealership - $500 to fix.researched on web - bought a repair kit for $90 and spent an hour doing it myself.all i had to replace was a $3 plastic piece.$500?extortion, anyone? this defect (check the web - tons of people have had this happen - only sometimes their windows have just dropped down suddenly) is well known to jeep - they should be held accountable.
Driver's side door windows (front and back seat) fall down and fail to stay up without tape. They have been taped up for over a year b/c we refuse to pay to have them fixed. Have researched online and found countless complaints about this. Dealership claims we would have to pay to get it fixed although it is obviously a defect. The main component of the regulator is plastic and runs on a metal track, causing the plastic to wear down and no longer be able to grip on the rail and support the window. Newer model jeeps do not have this part, so obviously they were aware of the problem and upgraded the part to eliminate this problem.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.while driving approximately 80 mph on normal road conditions, the contact heard a loud noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. Unexpectedly, the rear passenger window glass began to fall inside the door panel.the driver immediately pulled over to secure the glass with a heavy duty adhesive.the authorized dealer stated that the window regulator was the cause of the failure and would cost $450 to repair.the parts were unavailable for the repair so the contact scheduled an appointment to secure the window glass in the interim.the failure and current mileages were unavailable.
While driving down the street, the right rear window fell off it's track.this is the third time this has happened, the other times involved the front passenger's window in april of '07, and the left rear window in july of '08..the first two were covered by warranty.our '06 jeep is one year past the 36 month warranty and has about 22,000 miles.i have talked with two dealers and the chrysler complaint line and the information so far is that chrysler, even though the problem is pervasive enough that they issued service bulletin # 23-008-09 to the dealers acknowledging the chronic problem, will not accept responsibility and makes the owner foot the bill.i have since been online and there are literally thousands of similar instances being reported.someone is going to get killed.chrysler needs to suck it up and issue a recall.period.
What a joke, i traded in my foreign car (which with 150,000 miles, i dumped probably a $1000 in total for repairs) for an american vehicle. My back window fell down and looking at a $500 bill to repair it, i took silicone window sealer and sealed the window shut. Needless to say, my next vehicle will be one that has a 100,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty like my last one did. I can't believe with all of the reports of window failures the manufacturer will not stand by their vehicle. They continually manufacture vehicles with obvious defects, but with 32,000 miles on the vehicle hit you up for $500 a "repair" bill. This is not a repair, it is extortion to fix something that was and continues to be a defect in workmanship and materials, as well as poor design. It irks me when american car makers whine and get bail-out money because their product is defective and "not the same workmanship" as a foreign vehicle.
The window regulator on the drivers rear suddenly broke while driving on the highway. I was four days out off warranty,when i called the dealership they said i had to take the whole cost myself. I try to fix it myself if i can.
Left back window regular broke and window has fallen.unable to roll up window during a sand storm resulting in child breathing in sand until we could seek shelter and interior of vehicle being covered in sand.this is the fourth window regular that i am having to replace in this vehicle.filing a complaint at dealership request.they stated the windows were poorly designed andthe late 2006 models the windows are replaced with a redesigned window at the owners expense.
I was driving down the road with my son in the car. All of a sudden the rear passenger window went down. It was chilly, so i ask my son to put the window up and he said i didn't put it down. I tried toroll it up (power window) and heard a grinding noise, but the window would not go up. It apparently just fell down into the door and now i can not get it up. I went on -line to see if i could find a fix and ended up finding a huge amount of people with the exact same problem. I called the dealership this morning and they said i could bring it in and diagnostic is $120.00. Are you kidding me???? so i taped a plastic bag over the window for now, but i did not realize how much i used my rear passenger window for driving, until it was no longer usable. This is absolutely unacceptable that this many people have had this problem and nothing has been done by the dealership or chrysler.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact stated that the rear driver's side window regulator fractured, which caused the cables to snap and the window to fail.she called the dealer and they stated that the front window regulators were in the process of failing.the repair would cost $329 for each window and associated parts.the technician stated that the failure was common for this year, make, and model vehicle.as of march 12, 2009, the vehicle has not been repaired.the vin was unknown.the failure mileage was 60,000 and current mileage was 65,000.
Window regulator failure.window spontaneously falls down.have had this problem 5 times now (obviously one window twice).chrysler needs to fix it.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact noticed that the rear driver side window had fallen into the door panel abnormally. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics where the technician stated that the window regulator was fractured and needed to be replaced. After the repair the failure recurred eleven different times on the front and rear driver and passenger side windows. The vehicle was not further repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 3,000.
Power windows on 2006 jeep liberty - 38,000 miles - window drops halfway down, when try power control it grinds and window will not move up or down with control, window falls into door. This is my third window & it is the regulator again. It is unconscionable that chrysler/jeep has not issued a recall (or has not been directed to by an authority) when it is so very obvious this is a manufacturer's defect.
2006 jeep liberty rear driver's side window free falls into door. This is the 2nd time this issue has occurred on the very same door. The first time, it was fixed by the dealer at no cost (mileage: 19000, feb., 2008). This time, after explaining that the problem was exactly the same as the first time, the dealer asked for $90 to diagnose the problem, which i found ridiculous. After a very brief internet search, i found that this is an extremely common problem, which makes it even more infuriating that the dealer wanted me to pay them to diagnose the problem. The dealer finally offered to make the repair for $100, which i declined.this is a clear safety issue, not to mention a security issue. When this happens when the car is in motion, it causes the driver to be distracted, which can -- and eventually will -- lead to an accident. On the security side, this issue can occur at any time, even when the vehicle is not being driven, which could lead to a window being open without the owner's knowledge.chrysler and the government regulators need to start treating this like the safety issue that it is and issue a recall. It makes no sense that an owner should have to pay to have a clearly defective item replaced, especially when its going to be replaced with virtually the same part, which will eventually fail again.
After putting my front driver side window down completely, it will not go back up. The motor runs, it makes a sound, but window does not move. I was forced to leave my car parked in a medical center parking garage during my work shift 4:00pm to 12:00am. Of course, it was completely unsafe for me, a young female, to return to my open car and had to be escorted by a security officer. I then drove the 25 freeway miles home completely exposed to the elements. Having googled the malfunction, i learned that this is a very common issue with the 2006 jeep liberty and is very expensive to repair. I am astounded to also learn that chrysler did not issue a recall on this mechanical failure. As a college student, i am not financially able to incur this expense, nor do i think i should be required to, and am asking that chrysler perform repairs on all four windows at not cost to me. Please advise. Thank you for your consideration.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the regulator lift plates failed on both rear windows and the front passenger side window. The vehicle was diagnosed and repaired by an independent mechanic. The failure mileage was 75,000.
1. No unusual events, window (rear driver's side) seldom cycled in use. 2. 1 occurrence, window gaped slowly from about an inch to three inches when car was stationary. And would fall completely down when driving. Consequences? interior of the car was exposed toweather.3. Regulator failure diagnosed. Part replaced under warranty.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact noticed that the rear driver side window would exhibit an unusual noise when opening or closing until the window was no longer operable.the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the contact was informed that the lift plate was the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure and the vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 41,240 and the current mileage was approximately 43,900.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty and i have replaced all 4 window regulators/motors. The dealership states that they are a problem with the liberates and are known to repeatedly break with normal use.the first time they broke was only one year and 6,000 miles. The second time was six months later on a road trip. I had to get them repaired out of state. After three years and having them all replaced, the driver side window was still hanging and was repaired again. Now at the present time 1/27/2010 and 19,000 miles the driver side window components are broken again and will need to be taked in for another repair. This part should be recalled and fixed. This has caused a great amount of economic stress for myself and many other jeep owners who are forced to keep handing over money to jeep for a part that they know is defective.*cw
Front passenger window regulator failed.second time it has been replaced.
Left rear window fell down while car was parked. Dealer service said the regulator was ok but the lift plate was broken. Yet again, this is a door that has not been used in the last 4 weeks at a minimum. Chrysler service rep who took initial call said that he gets lots of calls for this on 2005 & 2006 models. He went on to say that most of the time is it in doors that are seldom used. Chrysler case manager stated that chrysler is under no obligation to address this issue even though they know it is a manufacturer defect. Not only is this a safety issue, it is a security issue.
Wanted a smoke and rolled down the rear window a little by mistake. Tried to roll it up and nothing. Look back and the window is sitting halfway down. Pulled over to try and get the window up and the door wont open. Piece of the window assembly is interfering with the lock because the kids got in that door when we left. Door will not open from inside or outside. It opens 1/2 inch and sticks.
My vehicle, a 2006 jeep liberty, has a recurring problem with window regulators failing. It has happened to me twice. The windows fall down into the doors creating a major safety hazard. The falling window startled me and it happened during a downpour, creating a major driving distraction. There are thousands of complaints about this problem on the internet, but chrysler has not issued a recall. They should do so immediately.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the rear window would fall down without warning and could injure a passenger if a rock flew through it. The dealer made four attempts to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, however, did not offer any assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 34,000 and the current mileage was 53,000.
Right rear window fell down while car was parked.because this happened the the left rear window in 2009, i immediately called chrysler customer service who instructed me to take it to the dealer for a diagnosis, which confirmed the regulator needed to be replaced. Once again this is a door that is seldom used and the window is almost never used.
I was driving home with my wife and 7 month old baby in her car seat while driving, all of a sudden the rear passenger side window completely drops inside the door. I'm very upset about this due to if the window would've broke or shattered it could've hurt our new born baby. I have since looked online and have seen thousands of similar cases with the same problem (2006 jeep liberty). I don't know why chrysler has not recalled this problem with the windows when soo many people are having the same re-occurring issue. Im stuck now with a bill from the dealer due to the warranty does not cover the whole cost of the repair which they explained that i need to replace the motor, window regulator also the glass. Keep in mind i jus purchased this vehicle in january 4 months later im already having problems.
I rolled down the rear drivers side window. When trying to get the window up the window fell inside the door. While this caused no immediate danger because we were not moving. This could be extremely dangerous for my children who are usually riding in the rear seat.
Windows have fallen from jeep liberty 13 times.windows will fall while driving or while parked without warning.
Window regulators break with normal use.this has created a financial stress and safety issue.my doors will not open.i was informed by a dealership that door opening mechanism gets interfered with when the regulator breaks.they were able to get the windows to stay up, as i cannot afford the replacement.but both rear doors will not open from the inside, and the windows will not function.
Both rear regulators have quit working, leaving my jeep and myself vulnerable to others being able to easily enter the vehicle. We have replaced one and will be replacing the other next week due to the cost. As if that wasn't enough, the sun roof just quit working and stuck partially open. I hardly ever use it, so it did not break due to use. We took it into the dealership and it will cost $1300.00 dollars to repair, which we cannot afford. Also, fuel quite often overflows when fueling, spilling gasoline down the side of my jeep as well as spraying out onto the person fueling. It does not matter how slowly we put the gasoline in, it still overflows.
2006 jeep liberty power windows fall into the door. Requires new regulator and window glass installed. All four windows in my vehicle have failed in the past 14 months since purchasing the vehicle. Dealer replaced 3 under warranty, but the 4th happened 132 miles outside of warranty. Dealer says chrysler will not fix under warranty. This is a very well known problem that has affected practically all 2006 jeep libertys according to the service manager at my dealership.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact was driving 45 mph when he attempted to close the rear driver side window and the window fell down into the door panel abnormally. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the contact was informed that the rear driver side window regulator for failed and would need replacing. The vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred five times. The failure was experienced on each window. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer after each failure to be repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 44,000.
This is the 2nd window to fall into the door cavity. Passenger front and drivers rear. First replaced under warranty, second i had to pay the deductible on an extended warranty. This last time the temp. Was 10 degrees outside. Hoping others don't fall at highway speeds.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty and have had it for approximately 2 years.during that time i have had to replace 3 of the 4 power windows due to mechanism failure.tonight one of the windows i have replaced with manufacturers repair kit has broken so i will need to replace again.i have checked on the internet and this appears to be a prevalent problem with the jeep liberty and one that the manufacturer should be responsible for a recall and replacement with reliable metal parts instead of plastic.at $500 a window i can't afford to continue to keep replacing windows.
We were driving on the highway when the drivers side rear door window dropped to the bottom of the track. The window would not operate by the electrical switch, and could not be made to close. I am told by the dealer that this will cost 500 dollars to fix, even though thousands of these failures are recorded by jeep. They also demanded a $75.00 "diagnostic fee" to tell me this. This is dangerous. A child could be placed in serious jepardy by this defect.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the door windows continued to break and fall into the door panel abnormally. The contact mentioned that the failure recurred a total of twelve times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer each time, who diagnosed that the window regulator and lift plates were defective and needed to be replaced.

The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 600 and current mileage was 41,000.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact noticed that all four power windows were inoperable and were unable to roll down in case of an emergency.the contact had the switched replaced in june 2010; however, the failure continued to occur.also the rear window regulator failed, causing it to fall into the door panel.the dealer advised the contact to have the switch replaced again.the manufacturer did not offer any assistance.the current mileages were 97,000 and the failure mileages were 60,000.

I have had to replace window regulator and window two times.(once on rear passenger window and one on rear driver side window) due to regulator failure.in both cases window slipped into the door.in both cases window and regulator were replaced.old parts remained at the dealership repair shop.
This is my second complaint concerning the rear windows of my 2006 jeep liberty. After reading all the complaints filed concerning this model of vehicle and the number of "repeat" failures, i just got done sealing the other back door window shut with silicone sealant. It is pretty bad when you owe the bank $11,000 for a vehicle and you have to constantly put money into it because of a defective part the manufacturer refuses to acknowledge.
Yet again, a complaint against the faulty window regulator in the jeep liberty. I've had 2 window regulators fail in the last 3 weeks. There needs to be a recall on this and jeep needs to be held accountable for the faulty part.
The driver's side window in my 2006 jeep liberty fell down and will not go up. It was a safety hazard to drive the freeways (the only way for me to get home from los angeles) in the rain with a window that malfunctioned. The dealership already fixed this problem once, and twice is unacceptable.
Car will not blow out cold air but works for a moment then just hot air. Thought it needed freon but i am being told new compressor is required $700.00. I spoke to another mechanic who thought the clutch part is the real issue. The car is garage kept and well maintained. Replacing clutch first. I have seen several similar complaints online too. Windows3 of 4 have dropped.
On my 2006 jeep liberty the rear drivers side window fell down on interstate 80 during a heavy rain storm. The rear seat and floor was soaked but the real problem was when it fell it scared me so bad i almost lost control of my vehicle.
The back windows fall down randomly and won't stay up unless they are taped. The mechanic stated it was a faulty regulator. Jeep is aware of this, however, they refuse to acknowledge the issue. This is a serious safety issue as it is random, occurring while driving and when the car is parked.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that over a period of time, all four windows in the vehicle failed and fell down into the door panel without warning. The contact stated that every window regulator was replaced in the vehicle prior to the most recent failure. The dealer informed the contact that there were no other repairs that could be performed for the windows. The contact stated the regulators would continuously fail every six months. The failure mileage was 79,000.
Rear drivers side window broke, fell into door aug 2008 and was repaired by the dealer, one year to date same problem, dealer now tells me i must pay $75 to have it repaired, regardless of the fact that it was a recall issue! i feel the dealer is wrong in charging this but i am stuck.
The window regulators fail on recurring basis.the front driver side window regulator failed twice and the front passenger window regulator failed recently.two different dealers recognized this as a common failure item but charges approx $600 per repair because my jeep is out of warranty.the dealers stated the regulator piece failing on recurring basis is made of plastic.
My 2006 jeep liberty passenger window fell in the door while i was driving.i was driving upstate and had to ride four hours with the window down at night.when i called the dealership about the window they said it was a common problem with the window regulator and cost about $500 to replace.
The rear left window stopped working, and now slides down into the door on its own.this seems to be a very common problem on jeeps.at this point in time, anyone can walk up to my jeep an simply push the rear window down from the outside.luckily, i was alone in my car when the window stopped working and slid down on its own.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the window regulators for the front and rear driver side windows failed.

Yesterday my drivers side rear window made a loud popping noise and the window fell down into the door.when i attempted to roll it back up it made a loud grinding noise.i am going to have to replace the power window assembly including the regulator and motor.this is the 3rd time i have had to replace one on this jeep.
Beginning on february 22, the first of three (3) window regulators failed in this vehicle.the first was the driver side rear passenger window, second was the driver's door window (6 days later) and the third was the right rear passenger window which failed yesterday (3/4/10).the rear windows have seldom been open since purchasing the vehicle new in 2006.two of thewindows slid/dropped open completely while the vehicle was underway while the third dropped open upon closing the right rear door.

Front drivers window and front passenger window stall when going up and down.had to have regulator replaced.
On my 06 jeep liberty my 2 back rear windows have failed.the one i caught before it went down into the door, jammed some cardboard on the sides to keep it up.however, here in sw florida during the summer we have a "rainy" season for 6 months.needless to say driving down the road one of these bands of rain starts pouring and now here goes the other rear window down "inside" the door this time.will not come up!if this is not a safety recall i don't know what is.let's just say trying to keep the car on the road, in the correct lane all while trying to find someplace to pull off the road until the rain stops.of course, now the seats are soaking wet, and we liberty owners know what comes next...........because the seats get wet all this nasty white stain is on them and must be brought in to get cleaned.douglas jeep (venice, fl) did take care of both windows within 4 days, i do feel it is jeep's responsibility and i should not have been charged period ($192) douglas jeep has always been very concerned with this problem and i appreciate them getting me in as soon as they did.i might add that these two windows failed within 2 weeks of each other.
2006 jeep liberty sport, 44,000 miles. Left rear door window all of a sudden slammed down for no reason, will not go up now, appears all repair parts are back ordered.
2006 jeep liberty rear driverside window dropped in to the door frame while driving down highway on 6-28-09. At 60mph the noise almost caused me so crash!! told it was window regultor...... It would cost me 500 to replace.i only have 38,xxx miles on my jeep .......after reading online this is has been a large problem for a while.... Which just snuck up on me yesturday.please review this window concernthank youmyra rookswillard missouri
Last year, right rear power window fell into door while i was driving the car.the window would not go up again.repair was $380.now, the other three windows are having similar problems.
Rear window on 2006 jeep liberty dropped down in door while traveling on highway. Website defects on 2006 jeep liberty shows many owners have had the same problem & still no recall from chrysler. Does it take an accident before something is done?
I had my 2006 jeep liberty in my driveway and looked out my bedroom window and noticed that my rear window was wide open in the rain!! i'm glad this didn't happen in a high crime area! anyway, brought it to the dealer the next day after wrapping plastic over it with duct tape and had it repaired under extended warranty (47,000k). The dealer said it was very common in that vehicle. I explained that i'm lucky it didn't happen on the highway with small children in the back seat. Two weeks later, the opposite rear window began to drop into the door well after hearing a popping sound which distracted me. This is clearly a safety issue and should be corrected by chrysler. I would also like to get my $200 deductible reimbursed for this inconvenience. Thank you.
I purchased my 2006 jeep liberty in january 2007. A few months later 3 of the automatic windows would not work. Dealer replaced the actuator for free. Since then 2 my windows have been stuck going up like they are off track. Driver side front and back window need to have actuator replaced again. Back driver side window fell completely down and won't roll up. Passenger front window has needed new actuator because it sometimes won't roll up. I will be finally taking it back to the dealer and hopefully getting the actuators replaced for free since they have been defective the entire time i have owned the car. There are lots of little pieces here and there that fall off the car and little things that don't work. It is really a very cheaply made car.

I bought a 2006 jeep liberty limited on 8-20-09 in excellent condition with approximately 50,000 miles.before i even drove the car off the dealerships lot, the rear driver's-side window/window regulator failed rendering the window inoperable.dealership did not have part and had to seal in up position so as not to fall, while part is being ordered.upon extensive research on the internet on various highly respected car review/rating sites, i have learned that the 2006 jeep liberty has a known defect in quality of window regulator design and material used which causes windows to drop into doors or cease operating routinely on average of every 2-3 months.yesterday while driving, my rear passenger window dropped while i was driving 65 mph on a major highway in traffic.i was subsequently startled to the point i swerved, and narrowly missed hitting another car which would have caused a multiple car collision on a major interstate.i have since taped my window in the "up" position until i can resolve this issue with dealer.dealership has informed me that they will only cover this first replacement/repair, and that i will be responsible for future window regulator repairs of $500.00 each.this is absolutely unacceptable.a company/dealership should stand 100% behind their product and should certainly address potential safety issues resulting from something as critical as this.the known window regulator failure could cause accidents, bodily injury, theft/vandalism issues, and depreciation and degradation of vehicle interior due to weather damage.i will be filing complaints with state attorney general and car manufacturer/corporate headquarters.a safety recall should immediately be issued, and these window regulators should be redesigned with something other than plastic that has proven to repeatedly fail.while certainly an inconvenience of time and financial drain and stress to the consumer, this is most assuredly a very serious danger to the consumer.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty, the front drivers window and the rear drivers window have both fallen while driving. I currently have them ty wrapped up. This is a temporary fix but also a serious safety concern as the driver would have a problem with egress in an accident. Chrysler will not address this issue,this is obviously a factory defect based on the amount of complaints, this needs some attention!

1. Power windows - three out of four of the power windows on my 2006 jeep liberty sport have fallen within the last month. It is not wear and tear because i hardly use the back windows, it is a defect. I have an infant daughter and this is a hazard for her since she has to ride in the back. 2. Electrical sensors - while coming to a slow stop or turning my vehicle has suddenly shut off for no apparent reason. *****both of these issues are common with this make & model. Why is there no recall? is chrysler waiting on someone to die before they make a move? i can't afford the ridiculous price to have these defects fixed. I have to feed my family...so i must tape my windows up and hope they don't get broken in to.
The rear driverside window falling problems with both front windows making a screeching sound when putting them up. The rear window wiper stopped working.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that while driving approximately 55 mph the contact noticed the rear passenger side window dropped into the door. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated that the rear passenger side window regulator had fractured and as a result it needed to be replaced. The failure occurred three different times. The window regulator was replaced in the rear passenger side twice and once in the rear driver side door. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 37,000.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty and my front driver window fell down first had to replace regulator, then one month later rear driver side window done the same thing. I don't fill safe not knowing at any time my windows can fell down and you are unable to put them up with out taking off door panels and repairingor replacing the regulator which cost up to $200.00 each. Is there any kind of recall on this part or is it something i just have to deal with, i think there should be a recall for your safety.
Both rear windows fell into door cavity multiple times, window would not roll up by regulator motor, must be lifted by hand after removing interior door panel. Both regulators were replaced twice within 18 months, did not correct problem, both windows continued to fall & require removing interior door panel to lift. Defect occurs while vehicle is either moving or parked, leaves occupants and contents unsecured and/or susceptible to the elements, theft, and other hazards. Only method available to secure windows was permanently tying in closed position.>>> this is an engineering and/or manufacturing defect of a specific part the manufacturer is well aware of multiple failures. <<<the defective part needs to be redesigned so it does not fail multiple times.
2008 jeep liberty: i have had the window regulator lift plates on all windows fail.....again, all 4 windows have failed a total of 7 times combined since i purchased the car in 2006. One was within warranty period. The 6 other failures have occurred while out of warranty. Of these 6 out of warranty instances, jeep has covered 4 of these under an extended warranty they issued regarding this problem because they know the plastic lift plate part is defective and "not adequately designed for the weight of the glass and power of the window motor". The service manager at my dealership told me this word for word! this warranty has now expired and the regulators/lift plates continue to fail. 1st one failed in may of 2008 rear driver, 2nd march 2010 passenger, 3rd august 2010 passenger rear, 4th january 2012 passenger rear, 5th september 2012 driver rear, 6th april 2013 driver rear, and now another (7th) just failed august 11th 2013 driver side window. This is a safety issue as it startles drivers when a window suddenly falls and slams into the door. I have swerved on more than one occasion, luckily not hitting another vehicle. This is also another safety issue as the vehicle can not be properly secured/locked. An intruder can easily gain access to the vehicle, hide in the back and then attack the driver or occupants. They can also steal the vehicle or its components or personal belongings. On the internet there are tens of thousands of complaints across various message boards, and consumer complaint websites regarding this very issue. Jeep has admitted to using faulty/defective parts, but refuses to replace them at will. They will only replace and cover the cost of this replacement if, and only if, it is either in warranty or the extended window warranty which is 7 years from vehicle in service date. For the 2006 jeep liberty, this warranty is expiring every day during 2013.

Over the course of the nine years i have owned this liberty, each of the 4 power windows have failed multiple times.the windows simply fall down freely without warning, and can not be placed back in an upright, closed position. This has occurred twice on each front window, and on each the left/rear and right rear windows it has happened three separate times.though this is an ongoing and known safety and security issue, there has been no service bulletin or recall as far as i know. Chrysler/jeep customer service and local dealer are unwilling to recognize the problem or cover the repairs. Jeep quotes us over $600 for the repair before reducing the estimates, due only to my persistent complaints. I understand there has been a class action suit brought by others on this very issue.

Left rear window fell with a loud bang. Car has never been off road and garaged. Mileage around 30,000. Dealer fixed it for a charge of $550.00.i have been on line and find thatthis is a continuing problem because ofdefect in the window controller. This is a defect and it is wrong for customers to be saddled financially with this issue. Vin#[xxx]. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
The rear driver side window suddenly, and unexpectedly, fell open from the fully closed position with a loud crashing sound. One open it was unable to be re-closed. Failure in this manner was very startling and can be seen seen as an unnecessary distraction which, in my opinion, constitutes a safety hazard. Upon investigation i found that the part of the mechanism that directly supports the window is made of plastic and further is of insufficient dimension to support the weight of the glass through repeated cycles. The dealer offered me the same inadequate part as replacement which is destined for the same failure.
(1) this vehicle has been recalled numorous times for various problems.(2) twice in the last 2 months, the back windows have come off the track and slid into the door.

2006 jeep liberty.consumer writes in regards to defectivewindow parts installed in vehicle.the consumer stated the window has been replaced five times within the last four months, in addition, to the previous 11-12 replacements in 2007. The consumer stated using the same defective parts was not going to fix the problem.also, when the windows were down, there was a thumping and wind noise, that was unbearable. The consumer stated things were stolen out of his vehicle, because the windows would not go up. Also there was a noise coming from the rear of the vehicle and the doors would vibrate when the windows were down.
The rear automatic windows on my 2006 jeep liberty fall down into the door panel and cannot be raised with the regulator. This happened to me while i was driving and forced me to drive with an open window during a storm heavy rain, the rear interior of my car was damaged. I have had the rear windows repaired for the same problem multiple times, and they continue to break, at times that are unsafe. It also prevents me from properly securing the vehicle from theft until i can get to the dealer and they can "repair" it with the same defective part over and over again. You have so many complaints from many consumers about the same proble, but no recall.what are you waiting for a death?

While driving along the interstate at 65mph the passenger side back window made a pop sound and fell into the door, making a loud bang. Amazed the window did not break. This is the second time a window has failed in this vehicle. The driver's side was replaced two years ago and the passenger side front sounds like it is about to go at any time. It is making whining noises when activated and moves very slow.
In july of last year (2006), i leased a 2006 jeep liberty.approximately 2 months later, one of my windows slipped down.i took it in for repairs.since then (16 months later), i have been in the repair shop for this exact reason 5 more times.my parents have the exact same vehicle, same year, and they are on their 6th window as well.after talking to the repair shops we both go to, we have found that this is a common occurrence.jeep has been contacted by us and by others.they are well aware of the problem.i believe that this is a safety issue on so many levels because the vehicle is vulnerable if the window is not up.
Window regulator. This is the 3rd time and have only had the auto for 16 months with less than 32,000 miles.
The windows on my jeep liberty fall from the track for no reason.they fall when i don't even use them.they have been fixed at least 5 times since i have owned the jeep.the new part that they install is apparently defective because they only last for a year and then they break again.this should be listed as a recall since i have seen thousands of owners of this jeep complain about the same problem, some having fixed the windows 12 or more times.this is a safety issue as well because the windows suddenly falling down for no reason can cause loss of control and also a safety issue that someone can reach in your car and harm you or create a carjacking issue.this problem needs to be addressed immediately.
We own a 2006 jeep liberty sport, and the rear window regulator broke and had to pay $250 to the jeep dealership to replace. In the bill we notice it read "updated window regulator" which made me do some research and apparently there are thousands of jeep liberties with the same problem, but chrysler will not recall the part. For us it was a safety issue since we have a baby in the rear seat who was exposed to the elements. Of course the car company and the dealerships still charge you $150 for diagnostic (although they know exactly what it is) and $100 for the part plus other fees. Some people i found have had all windows replaced to a cost of aprox $1000 this is not fair, they know the part is defective, they should fix it. They do accept government money to be saved but the consumer is on its own. Please do something about this.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated the two rear windows failed. The contact was advised by an independent mechanic that the motors failed and would need to be replaced.

Window mechanism failed while driving and window came open unexpectedly.all windows have failed multiple times since purchasing the vehicle new.each time, jeep replaces the mechanism with the same faulty parts.this is a safety hazard, because windows falling open while driving is a shock to the driver and causes a distraction, especially in bad weather.it also prevents parking the vehicle safely, because the vehicle is not secure.
Just bought the jeep and on the way home the back glass fell down. Did not know what it was almost run off the road trying to figure it out. Needless to say i took it back the next morning and they knew right away it was a window regulator. Had to wait till monday morning to take it back in and was 3 days in getting it back. Found out mine was not the only one with faulty windows by talking to the customers in there for the same reason. Needless to say i now ride around with duck tape and plastic and am waiting for the next one to go. Lots of people have had problems with these regulators and they need to be fixed now before someone wrecks and kills themselves with these things falling down. I traded in my toyota in fear of a sticking gas peddle and now i have to drive in fear of my windows falling down. I am only asking for a simple recall to a simple fix for all of the jeep owners who drive around with duck tape up to the windows. It is giving jeep a bad reputation and have heard people say they will never own another jeep because of this. Don't let jeep be in the hot seat with shame on you jeep when a death occurs because of this.
We purchased a used jeep liberty 2006 several months ago.this spring we rolled down the rear windows and couldn't roll them up.in fact, the rear windows seem to be disconnected from the window mechanism and can freely descend.i had to wedge them in place to keep them up.in arranging to have these fixed we were told by service personnel at corwin churchill motors in bismarck, north dakota that this has been a problem with jeep libertys and that no safety recalls for these defective windows have been issued.this seems to be a safety hazard for children or pets.if the window were to freely descend a child or pet could potentially be injured from a fall out of the vehicle.i have discussed this issue with the injury prevention director at the north dakota department of health who suggested i submit this complaint to your office.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated the drivers rear window regulator failed numerous times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times regarding the failure.

This is the third window to fail in my jeep liberty. At 100 to 500 dollars a shot, i'm getting tired of this.
While driving on 75n with no warring my back passenger window made a loud grinding noise then just fell down and would not go back up.i had two puppies in the back seat and while i was driving they were trying to go by the window.drove 5 miles like this to the nearest exit and was fortunate to find a tuffy auto service store.the window was diagnosed as a faulty regulator and i was told it would be $400 to fix it and about 3 hours.i could not afford that at the time, so i duck taped plastic to the window and drove another 2 hours north on 75 to get home.this was very scary and after a server safety issue!i have contacted jeep/chrysler's complaint line and after two days have still not received a call back from a case manager.i was absolutely shocked to discover that there are close to 200 complaints on this very situation on carcomplaints.com and that jeep is not backing their products.i am waiting to hear from them to see how this will be covered.this truly could have been very serious with the death of my dog and what if a baby was back there.in many cases the window's are actually shattering with out warning as they fall.
The rear automatic windows on my 2006 jeep liberty fall down into the door panel and cannot be raised with the regulator. This happened to me while i was driving and forced me to drive on the highway with lowered windows. I have had the rear windows repaired for the same problem multiple times, and they continue to break, at times that are unsafe. It also prevents me from properly securing the vehicle from theft until i can get to the dealer and they can "repair" it with the same defective part over and over again.
Where to begin...we have had the windshield washer reservoir replaced twice, all 4 window motors and one of them twice, air conditioner twice, some small pinion or some device that took all power from the vehicle, plus the recalls, all the directionals on the air vents, i have had this car in the shop so much, that i think in another 6 months i will have a brand new car again....i am just thankful it is under warranty...but this car has burnt us on jeep!!
I pulled up to a stop at an intersection. The passenger lowered the passenger front-side window using the electrical button. The window fell into the door and did not come back up when the passenger tried to raise it again. This is the third window this has happened to. Each time the diagnosis was a broken window regulator.
I have had problems with every window on my car not rolling up.i have been to the dealership several times to have them fix them.now i am out of the original warranty, but am on the "platinum" warranty and the dealership told me yesterday that it would be $200.00 to fix the rear window.this is a total ripoff.is there a class action lawsuit i can join to make them fix my car?it's ridiculous to pay $400.00/month and have a piece of crap car that i can not roll my windows up or down.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated the driver side rear window fell down into the door and it is not operable. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated that they needed to replace the window regulator for $486.the failure mileage was 112,000.
The right and left rear power window regulators have failed within three days of each other.
Window regulator failed causing window glass to fall open. Our family pet exited the window while the vehicle was moving. These window regulators fail easily and without notice. Windows will suddenly just drop, or open. This can allow a pet or child to exit the vehicle while moving. Also a security hazard as the window regulator can be broken easily by placing both hands on the window and pushing down causing the plastic parts in the regulator to fail. The regulator has to be replaced - if done by a dealership can cost $450 per window. The are many documented cases of multiple window regulators failing on all year models.
All windows falling out of jeep liberty 2006>2007 due to cheap plastic connector. All windows and regulators have to be replaced. Jeep has published a bulletin to their dealers about the problem but there is no recall. Cost approx $2,000 per vehicle in parts and labor. You can really see the scope of this problem on edmunds.comjeep liberty window problems.i personally know and communicate with 60 people who have had all their windows fall out, some two >>three times.
Our jeep liberty has had the left rear window repaired 3 times and it fell down again yesterday. The right rear has been repaired twice. The sunroof repaired once and the battery/electrical repaired three times. This doesn't count the windshield repaired twice because of leaks. I t appears the windows fall down about every 3-4 months.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact stated that both rear windows and the drivers side window fell down while driving 45 mph during a thunderstorm.

The contact stated that this was not the first time the windows malfunctioned. He was also familiar with numerous complaints regarding the window failure.the failure mileage was 91,000.
The 2006 jeep liberty window regulators continue to fail.i have had to repair the driver side window regulator twice, the left window regulator once and the right regulator twice. The first three repairs were covered under warranty, the fourth one i had to request re-imbursement from jeep which was granted after correspondence with jeep.the fifth time i am still negotiating with jeep.they are aware of the issue as there have been many complaints with the same issue.
We were driving down the road and we went to roll down the rear window and it fell into the door and wouldn't go up or down. When we stopped to attempt to fix the window the door will not open at all.

Windows regulators fail .windows just drop when you operate them.every windowhas done this .for no known reason.
I've had my 2006 jeep liberty for only 2 years and have already had window regulators in both the back windows fail 3 times!when you go to control the window, it makes a loud grinding noise and either (i've had both happen) slowly start falling into the door panel or immediately just plummet down with so warning except for the loud noise which gives you no time to react to the situation.luckily, this last time, i was able to catch the window before it's great fall of death into the door and now it is electrical taped up to my door jam.which is inconvenient and unsafe.until i get it fixed, (or decide to drop another meaningless $300+++ dollars to fix a repetitive problem) my vehicle is unsafe and there should not be a worry on my part whether or not rolling down my windows at any time will cause this problem repeatedly.my front passenger window is making a funny sound now so i am reluctant to even use it.this is ridiculous.it's not like us jeep owners are pressing down on the window or even doing anything out of the ordinary to contribute to this defect.i understand things break, but 3 times in 2 years?the manufacturers buy the part for pennies and charge us an arm and a leg to get the part fixed and it continues to break.this is highway robbery and without question there should be a recall issued on this consistent problem.
Continued issues with window regulators. This is the forth time the same part has broken. The two rear windows have broken and been fixed 3 times and now the front passenger side window regulator. During all of the incidents we have been driving the vehicle. Jeep knows about this issue and has many many complaints about it. Mopar knows about this issue and has changed material that they part is made out of.
Driver's side window went off track and i took it to the dealer and they fixed it.now the driver's side rear window falls down for no apparent reason. It happens several times daily i can not keep it up. The driver's side window keeps going off track.the passenger side window squeaks real bad.
This has been happening for some time.when i fill up, the gas tanks gushes out gas when it is full.this happens almost every time that i fill up with gas.it seems extremely dangerous as there is enough fuel that spills on to the ground below the jeep.i have replaced every regulator in my jeep's windows.they go out all of the time.the last one went out while driving and the window crashed down and scared me to death.
For the 4th time in almost as many years i have had the power window regulator fail leaving the window(s) in the stuck down position. These components fail very often across the jeep liberty models. Mine is a 2006 but i know of people from 2002 to current that have had this exact issue over and over.
I was driving my vehicle near crater lake national park. The power window motor system broke on the left rear passenger door, thus allowing the window to free fall into the door frame. I have read that this is and has been an ongoing problem with this year of jeep. Then now in decmeber, the drivers window motor system has broken again causing the glass window to free fall into the door frame. If this is all true about this system, and the fact that i now have 2 broken power window motors which will cost me nearly $900 to fix, i feel this item should be on a national recall list for jeep to replace these items so they will not fail. It is a safety hazard as it could cause glass to break during driving time and injuring drivers.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty crd which i leased in feb. 2006 through jan. 2009 then decided to purchase this vehicle.the rear window regulators have failed on both sides twice.the first time was in june 2007 both rear passenger door windows fell into the door.this happened again this year in april 2009 for the right rear window and now in august 2009 for the left rear window.i have seen many reviews on this and that this problem keeps occurring.once the warranty is up you pay approximately $400 per window regulator to be fixed.i believe chrysler/jeep should remanufacture this part and replace it for free.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4. The contact stated that as she attempted to open the rear driver's side window, the window exhibited a loud, abnormal screeching noise. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection where they stated that the regulator needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified and stated that the vehicle was not under warranty or recall. The failure mileage was 17,110...updated 12/06/12 the consumer stated the second window failedon the rear driver side in october 2012 repaired 11/19/2012.updated 12/07/2012
Both of my rear window regulators broke while i was rolling down the windows after being in the sun all day. This is the 3rd jeep liberty that i have had that has had this problem. Jeep wants me to pay $300 to get these replaced. This is a known problem and jeep refuses to take care of it. Locking my vehicle is pointless since the windows fall down.
In march 2009 i purchased a used 2006 jeep liberty and in august 2009 the driver side rear window stopped working just a loud clicking sound and then you can manual pull and push the window down.a new regulator/cable and window had to be installed. In march 2010 the same thing happened on the front drivers side window and the front passenger window. In july 2010 the rear driver side window stopped working again. Each time the windows stops working they need to replaced. Money out of my pocket, now my extended warranty is no longer in effect and the work that gets down only has a warranty for so long. There has to be a better fix then forking over $500+ each time a window stops working. It seems at this rate it's going to happened now every year. I am afraid to use the window at all. This needs to be addressed!!!!
My 2006 jeep liberty has a serious problem with the window regulators and lift plates.june 1, 2010, was the first regulator to go out.the second one went out shortly after that.now the first one has dropped again.the first time, i paid over $400 for the repair.the second one was covered by chrysler completely, and they reimbursed me $333 for the first repair when the second repair was done.they are going to "consider" reimbursing me for this third one, but i have to jump through all of their hoops for it to be considered.this is a serious problem that is affecting many many liberty owners. There should be an extended warranty on these regulators and plates.my daughter is driving this car and should not have to be concerned with whether her windows are going to stay up.this is a serious safety issue.nhtsa should demand that chrysler either recall these or at bare minimum put an extended warranty on all libertys for these parts.ugh.this is ridiculous.oh, and we bought the car used in november 2009.for all we know, multiple regulators might have been put on this car in its first 36,000 miles before we bought it.
I went out sunday morning, to go to church and my rear window of my 2006 jeep liberty had fallen down into the door. The dealer said they had serviced the problem on other jeep liberty's andin 2006 the mechanism had been changed. The cost of the repair would depend on which mechanism was in my vehicle. My son had the same problem with his 2003 jeep liberty renegade. I was looking at some reviews online and rudy also had the same problem with his 2006 jeep liberty. Since this is a problem the company knew about and did not let the consumer know about the problem, i feel like i should be compensated for the cost of the repair. The cost was $376.66. I would also like to know if i will have the same problem with the passenger side rear window? if yes , the mechanism should also be replaced at their cost. Sincerely, _______
Jeep liberty automobile, 2006 model year, multiple incidents of door window dropping suddenly into the door frame. Drivers door has happened twice, front passenger door once, driver's side rear passenger door has happened three times and passenger side rear door once. On two occasions this has happened while driving at high speeds and the resulting chaos has nearly caused an accident.jeep dealership says this is a common problem for jeep liberty from 2002 to 2006.they have no solution to offer other than replacing the window solenoid with same type that keeps failing.
'06 jeep liberty has window motor failure in all 4 windows. 2 window motors were replaced at dealership and have since also failed.dealership will not assist in repairs due to mileage over factory warranty limitations and replacement motors are warranted for 1 year. *all 4 window motors have failed, some multiple times. I have also experienced multiple electronic failures. Dealership personnel stated to me that they have recognized constant complaints similar to mine, however they are unable to assist with problems.
Jeep liberty 2006. Bought new. To date 6 power windows have failed. 2 of them obviously for a second time after repair by chrysler dealership. I live in south florida were there is no chance of the windows becoming stuck with ice buildup between the weather striping & the glass. This is a design fault that chrysler is aware of. Incredible that a large corporation is unable to design a powered window system that's been around for 50 years. During severe weather, rain storms, blowing snow or severe cold, this can become a dangerous situation. This failure is prolific on all jeep liberty'sbuilt from i believe 2003 to 2007. My jeep has had failures that at the retail level would cost over $2000.00 approx $300 - $400 per window. Its only just over 3 years old.i am now afraid to open & close the windows. I have secured the last failure in the up position using a cable tie. Chrysler needs to address this issue.

2006 jeep liberty window regulators are just plain garbage.i just had my second one fail and i rarely ever move my windows.i was driving down the freeway, when a child passenger activated the window switch.there was a loud cracking sound and the window fell from fully closed position down into the door in fully open position.some kid will fall out of a window one of these days and die because of this.there are complaints all over the web about these things failing while jeeps are parked and unattended.why has there not been a recall on this obviously inferior and dangerous design?
My car was parked, when the regulator for the back passenger's side window broke causing the window to fall into the door.this is at least the 14 times one of the regulators has broken in my liberty.this time i was lucky because my car was parked.there have been several times it has broken while driving which is a safety concern for my passengers.jeep has not yet recalled the part even though they have acknowledged that the part is faulty.
This is the 2nd time that a window in my 2006 jeep liberty has dropped while i was driving adn i've only owned it for 1 year.last time it was by babies rear window that dropped on the highway.this time it is was passenger window that dropped on our way to the park.i didn't even use it because the ac was on.it just dropped loudly, everyone screamed, i swerved and we almost hit a sign!luckily i gained control and nothing happened.now i have to pay $500 to get it fixed and be out of a vehicle for almost 2 days.i've had enough and i want chrysler to fix this problem!
Failure of power window components causing window to crash into inner door... Almost caused an accident by frightening me to the point of panic.after some investigation, i have found out that this is an ongoing problem with the jeep liberty that chrysler has refused to deal with... It will eventually be dealt with after someone is killed or maimed.why don't you do your job and deal with this problem before someone gets killed or maimed.
Driver rear window fell down. Tested and repaired rear window regulator and assembly.
While driving the 2006 jeep liberty across the country from pa to tx the 2nd back window fell into the door with our dog in the back, this could of caused an accident.this happened to both my back windows, both these are child safety windows, and if someone had a child in a car seat in these jeeps could have had a potential accident when this happened, winter months, storms etc.please recall these hazardous window regulators on the 2006 jeep liberty.i was told by the local dealership, the chrysler company will pay 1/2 for the repair,.i am asking for an immediate recall and replacement for the window regulators before someone gets seriously hurt.
In august of 2011 my rear passanager window fell down while i was driving. August nov 20 2012 my window again fell down where my infant sits and its the start of winter.i understand there is an issue with this on models 2004-2007 however they are not covering this as a recall. This is clearly a safety issue. The manager bill said that he prettymuch didnt care neither did gloria the csr rep whom hung up on me when she said she was going to put me on hold after 10 min or brenda who said that they just don't do good this kind of service for people.
Chrysler continues to ignore a safety problem with the jeep liberty. Customer complaints about their power window regulators that basically let the window fall out into the street or inside the car on top of sleeping babies and other passengers, or down in the door, or get stuck up or down. I have a 2006 jeep liberty and have had to fix this problem on my car 3 times once at 10,000 miles, once at 50,000 miles and now at 70,000 miles. The last two times i paid $350. Chrysler knows about the problem having sent repair instructions to dealer service departments for a temporary fix that they are using as a fraudulent money making venture, 'a built in repair problem.' chryslers arrogance is unparalleled, we need your help!
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that while driving 65 mph, the rear driver side window fell into the door panel haphazardly. The vehicle was taken to a personal mechanic who replaced the window regulator. Three weeks later the failure recurred. The vehicle had not been further repaired. The failure and current mileages were 70,000.
I am writing to give a complaint about the 2006 jeep liberty. On numerous occasions throughout purchasing the vehicle, we have had to have the power window regulator and glass replaced. The glass falls into the door and will not roll up. The first time, and even second, i was able to take it in stride and accept it, paying the large sum to get it fixed. However, as this continues to happen on at least 4 other occasions - two of which happened within five days of each other in mid september 2010 - i am quite discouraged. I now have one window still down - passenger front - and it is currently taped up. However, in florida weather, it frequently melts and falls down. This leaves my car window down and exposed in public while i am at work - which could lead to many dangers. I am sick of taking my car in every few months because jeep cannot simply fix this problem. I paid a price for my car, and could easily have bought another car by now with the money i have spent on fixing the windows in this car - around 350 to 500 a pop for each time. This is ridiculous and jeep should be held accountable for the default.
In july 2009 the left, rear passenger window in my jeep liberty fell down by itself.in dec. 2010 the right rear passenger window in the same vehicle fell down by itself during a snow storm causing approximately 6 inches of snow to accumulate in my vehicle.these are windows that are rarely used.both the service manager and customer service reps at chrysler advised me that there is a faulty window regulator in the jeep vehicles which causes this problem, but no recalls have been made.
My 2006 jeep liberty started experiencing power window problems around nov 06. All 4 power windows would not roll down or they would roll down part of the way then get stuck and wouldn't roll back up. It was a safety concern when they were stuck open. It was also an issue in drive-through situations and other typical scenarios where you would roll down a window. A local chrysler service dept repaired it repeatedly from 2006 until they closed in early 2009, then another chrysler service department made the last repair in july 2009. Repairs ranged from re-wiring the windows to completely replacing the internal electronic system.
Two weeks after purchasing a 2006 jeep liberty, the rear left window dropped and could not be rolled up or down.it was repaired under warranty.the next time it was the right rear window and it cost $429.26.three weeks later the rear left window dropped again.this time we contacted jeep/chrysler and were told that although the warranty for this problem had been extended for the 2006 jeep liberty that mine was not included because it was built in october/2005.the agent said nothing could be done and there was no one else to talk to - it was a final decision.i called back and was told that the previous customer service agent didn't follow procedure andwas "stunned" at the way i was treated and i was then assigned a case number and a case manager.there have now been 14 phone calls and nothing has been resolved.this is a safety issue.small children ride in the back seat that could get out of safety restraints and be in danger.the vehicle cannot be locked up and secured and it's scary to have to get inside an unsecured vehicle at night.the interior is being destroyed by constantly being rained and snowed upon in a region of the country that has more cold and wet weather than anything else.jeep refuses to acknowledge that there are hundreds of complaints on the internet about this problem, no standard policy being followed by jeep to get this manufacturer's defect fixed, and no recall for a problem that happens over and over again on the same vehicle.if jeep will not fix this problem with their product, then consumers should unite a file a class action lawsuit because the way jeep is handling this is just plain wrong.
The rear passenger side window regulator failed again. Driving and the back window dropped without notice. This is a costly repair and its an ongoing problem . You need to make the mfg step up and make a permanent solution for a ongoing problem. I see you have had several complaints on the same issue. This is a safety issue as well.
Driving vehicle, rolled down the driver side rear window with power window button, attempted to roll window up later and heard a "pop" sound.arrived home, removed the interior door panel, noticed the window slide regulator had broken from the plastic.used zip ties to keep window held in the up position, rendering the window useless.unable to afford to have it fixed.several months later, rolled down the passenger side rear window and experienced the exact same thing as above.november 12, 2012, wife is driving home from work, rolled down the passenger front window and experienced again what happened to the last two instances.attempted to contact chrysler support, was told to get an inspection from a dealership and then contact them back.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4 the rear window passenger side has stopped working, or should i say it just fell making a loud boom when it came crashing down, i'm just glad i didn't have kids in the back seat when it fell, it could have broke and really hurt some one. The liberty only has 46,000. Miles on it the windows has not been used at all since i have had it. I have been doing research on the problem and there are many people with the same problem and it appears that jeep does not offer a warranty or a recall. But a after market is available not even from jeep of better design to fix the problem.http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.f16fe1c/121 here is one of the web sites where many people have been posting the same problem.here is the solution from an after market where the design looks better and makes more since. Please help in trying to get jeep to offer a recall in this problem before some one gets hurt, andas 500 or more is a lot to have to spend for there mistakes.one more web sitehttp://www.carcomplaints.com/jeep/liberty/2006/windows_windshield/window_regulator_breaks-2.shtml.
Window regulator broke costing me $210.chrysler refused to reimburse me because my vehicle was made in december 2005 prior to the extension of the warranty for the same problem effective march 2006. Also, i am the third owner. This is a known factory defect and is not a wear issue or a maintenance problem. This should not happen period.
My teen daughter, after saving for years, just bought a 2006 jeep liberty.the window totally dropped.after searching, this seems to be a defective product.not only is this a major safety issue, it is apparent that chrysler corp does not want to take responsibility.it is a sham that consumer relations in the united states is declining.please address and give the next generation a little help!!!!!!replace the window regulator.
Replaced 3 windows that would not stay closed (common problem) . Went to dealer for an oil change found out that all5 (or 6) break hoses were about to burst and car was unsafe to drive. No fault of my own but jeep has "no idea" how it happened!kept my car for 4 weeks! now the key gets stuck in the ignition every time i turn off the car! car's a lemon!!!
The rear driver's side window failed to go up after i had lowered it a little bit. This is the second time this window has had this issue and will be the fifth time i have had this issue since owning the vehicle since2006.when i contacted the dodge / jeep / chrysler dealership about this issue, they told me the warranty was no longer valid, in other words it expired in march of 2014 and i would now be responsible for paying for any work needed to be done to repair this window issue.this dealership does have my prior records on filein their computer system of the 4 previous times i've been there to have this issue repaired as well.
I was sitting in a parking lot and my back passenger side window fell down. I didn't hit any of the buttons, it just fell. I took it to get looked at and they told me that the window regulator went bad again. This has happened multiple times and i believe it is crazy that this part isn't apart of the recall. The place didn't have any in stock (seems to be a problem probably because it has happened so many times to countless customers), so basically i was charged 110$ for them to look at and tell me what is wrong while me knowing it was either that or the lift plate. Don't think i have been more frustrated in my life.
The window regulators for my 2006 jeep liberty have failed. This is a major complaint with the 2006 jeep liberty and this should be subject to a recall. There have been numerous complaints about this problem. Jeep needs to make this right. The window regulators for the drivers side rear window stopped working in 2009, and the window regulator in the drivers side front window stopped working in 2012.
Bought a used 2006 jeep liberty with 13k miles. Two times the rear passenger windows have failed and fallen into the door while driving along the freeway. Chrysler dealer and internet research shows that this issue recurs several times on this model. Parts were replaced by dealer but this issue apparently could reoccur. The issue is a defective design in the window regulator that regularly fails.
I own a jeep liberty 2006 and have continuing issues with window regulator failures causing the windows to drop into the door without any warnings.since purchasing the vehicle all 4 have been replaced and i am now starting my second round of replacements.apparently, chrysler is replacing defective parts with another defective part.chrysler has issued an internal bulletin but has notbeen cooperative or consistent with resolving customers continued complaints.so far i am dealing with window regulator repairs at least 2 to 3 times per year.
Right rear window fell down while car was parked.because this happened the the left rear window in 2009, i immediately called chrysler customer service who instructed me to take it to the dealer for a diagnosis, which confirmed the regulator needed to be replaced. Once again this is a door that is seldom used and the window is almost never used.
Power window parts failures on 2006 (and other) jeep liberty.windows will "fall" into the door with little no warning.have had two fail in last 8 months.less than 30,000 miles on vehicle.one failed while vehicle is sitting still, not running.have seen over 150 exact complaints on edmunds.com and carcomplaints.com.failure apparently due to plastic parts fatigue, repair costs approximately 400 per occurrence.
While i was away from my jeep, the right rear window rolled down and broke -- again.that was the 6th time this occurred in this vehicle to these windows.not more than 10 minute later, the left rear window broke, exactly as they all have done.so, this is the 7th time each of 4 window mechanisms in this jeep have failed.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact was driving approximately 25 mph coming to a complete stop with the front driver side window in the downward position. The contact attempted to activate the window mechanism. However, the window failed to operate upwardly. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer on two separate occasions for the identical failure. The vehicle was repaired under the service warranty. The repair part was unknown. Also, the front passenger side window would not function in an upward position. In addition, when dispensing fuel into the fuel tank to the full capacity level; the fuel would continuously spray out of the tank without shutting off. The fuel tank was replaced at the dealer. The failure mileage was 8,000.updated 8/2/10updated 08/09/10
I purchased my 2006 jeep liberty in 2007 within the first year of purchase the rear right window motor went out and was covered under warranty and replaced. While still under the warranty the same window motor when out again and was again replaced. Now i no longer have a warrantyboth rear window motors have gone out. To replace both windows will cost me around $830 dollars. This is a serious problem with these window motors and needs to be addressed. If these motors keep going out like this there should be a recall and we as consumers should not have to foot this bill, this is a known problem with this vehicle.
Front right passenger window regulator failed.
1. Accidentally pushed rear window down switch rather than front drivers side switch2. Grinding noise and window is now disengaged from drive dropping window3. Will not repair.thousands of hits on google for people that have had this problem with cheap plastic window to actuator connection.startled when window dropped in rear unexpectedly.
I have two (2) jeep liberty's both 2006 (1) renegade, & (1) sport, both vehicles have had the window regulator's fail, (2) - window regulator's failed on the renegade, (1) on the driver's front side window, the regulator had to be replaced on 02/12/11 & again (1) on the driver's rear window, the regulator had to be replaced on 05/18/12 this was on the 2006 jeep renegade. (2) - window regulator's failed, on the jeep sport, (1) on the driver's rear window, the window regulator had to be replaced on 09/19/11 & (1) window regulator again on the same window on 10/08/14 needs to be replaced, the same window regulator needed to be fixed twice within three years & 20 days, the dealer would not fix the window under warranty because it was over the exp. Date by 20 days, why is it always the windowregulators because it's a plastic part and that's why it keeps failing, that's just bull i have spent over 1200.00 dollars on repairs on windows regulator's alone & it's the same part each time all 4-windows, i used to be a great fan of jeep, i've owned jeeps for (20) years now, but i have become really disappointed with my vehicle's, the first time it happened i was on the highway driving at 65 mph when the window suddenly opened, the wind ripped through my vehicle started to blow things around so bad that i had to pull over and tape my window up so i could make it home, and i'm not the only one, alot of jeep liberty owners have had the same thing happen to them and had to replace the window regulators, thank you
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the rear passenger window fell off track into the door while she was driving approximately 35 mph. A few weeks later, the rear driver side window fell when the vehicle was parked. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the regulator was replaced for both windows. In april 2010, the rear driver side window fell inside the door; however, thedealer replaced the regulator and the window. In july 2010, the front driver side window failed while driving approximately 10 mph. The vehicle was in the dealers possession when the complaint was filed. The contact called the manufacturer who stated that they would follow up with her but had not done so. The current mileage was 15,759. The failure mileage was approximately 800.updated 09/09/10. *ljupdated 09/10/10
Rear driver side window regulator failed and the window dropped.research shows that this is very common with jeep window regulators.a cheaply made plastic clip routinely breaks causing the window to drop (both front and rear power windows).many owners have replaced multiple window regulators costing several hundred dollars each.failure occurs even on windows that are rarely operated.the failures create a safety issue and should be addressed with a recall.the weak window regulators also make it very easy to break into a vehicle.
2006 jeep liberty-while driving back window makes a popping sound than falls down. About 6 months later the front driver side window makes a popping sound and falls down--the unexpected noise and rush of cold winter air caused me to swerve into a ditch. This a safety issue and an expense!!
2009 drivers side back window regulator broke needed replacement 2010 back window passenger side broke needs replacement.
The right rear passenger window while driving 65 mph the right rear window without warning dropped all the way down into the door. This startled my 7 year old son who was sitting there and it almost caused me to lose control of the vehicle because my sons reaction startled me.
Rear driver's side power window regulator broke after only 40,000 miles on a 2006 jeep liberty limited 4x4.window received only light used, was not used while frozen with ice.this failure results from aplastic part that is specified in the regulator design that is not durable enough for this application.this failure renders the vehicle unsecure as the window either falls down on its own or can be pushed down from the outside by hand.it also causes a safety issue as the window can fall down unexpectedly.this is especially an issue during winter or storm conditions.incurred $250 in repair costs.replacement parts have the same design flaw and can be expected fail again in similarly short peroids of time.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the window regulator and glass were redesigned by the corporation, which was a result of the windows malfunctioning.the contact stated that all of the windows in the vehicle would randomly fall down into the door and fail to come back up.he was forced to tape the windows in the up position in his vehicle.through research, the contact discovered that this was a common failure.he spoke with a service technician at the dealer who admitted that many other consumers experience the same defect as well.they also stated that the window regulator needs to be replaced.the failure mileage was 81,000 and current mileage was 84,000.
Failing window regulator on a 2006 jeep liberty , chrysler is aware of the problem , does not want to issue a recall, or do a good will fix . Est. To fix over $ 500.
The rear window regulators in the 06 jeep liberty are failing at an alarming rate. Ours has had both break once and the drives side twice now. I have contacted jeep with my frustrations with zero help. There are countless claims online, with friends, acquaintances,and even my local jeep dealer (easton, md) that all support that this is not an isolated issue. I have again been told that there will be no recall because this is not a safety issue. I disagree strongly!! when driving down the highway and the window regulator fails, the window drops. What happens if there is something leaning up against the window, a child in that seat, a pet? the risks are huge to the safety of the vehicle occupants and others on the road should something fall out. The other thing that is very alarming is that everything is beginning to present itself at a similar time for the vehicles showing signs of the problem. Jeep claims it is due to plastic parts failing due to not enough use?? this makes no sense. To support my claim that this is an issue affecting a large number of people and clearly not an isolated issue, please see the web sites listed below.

I have a 2006 jeep liberty that i purchased 6 mos ago with 25,000 miles. The back passenger window has stopped working. Still researching repair estimates.
3 broken windows one is stuck in door one is stuck up and back seat is stuck. All have broken within a week. I cant afford to get all 3 fixed at one time . Just for them to break again.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty diesel. The contact stated that while attempting to close one of the rear automatic windows, the vehicle exhibited a loud pop and the window would not close. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the plastic window tray fractured and caused the malfunction. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not offer any assistance since the vehicle was not under warranty. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 70,000.
While driving my 2006 jeep liberty the rear passenger driver side window fell down. While in the up position. I already had the driver side window fixed under warranty. Since i livein a cold climate state this could cause a safety issue if the window were to break inclimate weather.
This has caused great inconvenience, not to mention concern. I'm a single mom of a toddler and the rear driver's side window regulator of my 2006 jeep liberty broke. I don't open this window often, since my passenger is in the back alone.i now have to collect $500+ to repair this problem that can become very serious, very quickly.in addition, my car is now accessible to vandals.is chrysler waiting for a very serious accident to occur before approving this recall?being proactive can save a life or a body part for that matter!
While driving a passenger on the rear left side of my car attempted to roll down the window. We then heard a pop and the window was half way down and began to fall. We were able to keep the window from falling into the door. The motor continued to sound as if it was working but would not allow the window to go up or down. Approximately 6 months later the rear right side window was being rolled down and we again heard a popping sound and the window again would not roll up or down. After research it seems that this is a common occurrence and due to having two out of four windows on my car alone experience this problem it seems very strange to me that this has not been issued as a recall and is costing owners of these vehicles over $400 per window to fix this problem. This is a safety hazard for the risk of someone breaking in to a vehicle and also the risk of the window falling and breaking putting anyone in the back seat of the vehicle at risk of injury, including my daughter.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the window regulators continuously fail, causing the windows to fall into the door panel abnormally. The vehicle was repaired by an authorized dealer the first three times of the failure and was repaired under the contacts warranty. Most recently, the window regulators failed again and the contact was awaiting a return call from the manufacturer to determine if they would assist with the continual failure. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000 and the current mileage was approximately 50,000.updated 01/13/11*ljthe vehicle has since been sold.updated 01/27/11
My 2006 diesel jeep liberty crd 4x4 windows in the rear both stopped working.first one side quite rolling up and down and then on june 4th 2010 the left rear windowwouldn't go up and made a loud roaring noise and clicking and my son got soaked from the rain and now it still won't roll up.also, the esp and traction control light came on and is staying on.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4. While driving at unknown speeds, the contact could hear wind in the cabin and found the rear passengers side window was open without driver intent. She was unable to close the window and took the vehicle to a local repair shop. The contact was advised by the mechanic that the window regulator had failed and would need to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted by no assistance was offered. The failure and the current mileages were 66,460.
Driver side window dropped - it's the window regulator - again. Have replaced the other window plates and regulators in this car 4 times! really scary when you're driving and the window suddenly drops! especially nice when it's pouring out! previously was reimbursed by chrysler for repairs, but now they've 'changed their policy' (really????).this will cost me $375 at my own shop as opposed to $508 at the jeep dealership.i wouldn't care if it was twice the price, i'm not giving jeep a dime! this should have been a recall item, they should be ashamed of themselves.
Jeep liberty, rear window mounting tag caused regulator to fail. Window dropped and would no longer work, leaving child safety window lock inoperable. Jeep has known about this however has not issued a recall, can cost up to 500.00 to fix. Could have caused a accident if dropped while i was driving and became distracted.
I have had the window regulators on three windows fail 4 times since sept. 2007. I came out of work to find that the window has dropped.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty.this is the third window regulator replaced in this vehicle.my jeep only has 43234 miles on it.the first 2 were covered under warranty.this last was the rear left window.hardly used.had to replace the regulator plus put a new window in because they changed the part.at the cost of $425.what a rip!
Twice within the last year while driving i heard a loud bang and the window, first to my drivers side window and the second to my passenger window drivers side , starting slowly sliding down intodoor with window switch non-functional. This first happened julyof last year and again this month, may 2007.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty and this morning i was rolling down the window when i heard a pop and was unable to return the rear left passenger window to the closed position.i searched about this problem and found that this is becoming a common problem among 2006 jeep liberties.a forum suggested that i report it.i had not experienced any problems before this incident.
2006 jeep liberty sport 4 x 4 window regulator failure:about to leave for work and found a rear window down on my jeep.when i tried to use the button to raise it a loud grinding noise occurred and the window would not go up.chrysler dealership charged me $442.73 to replace the regulator with, what the representative said, was the new type that chrysler uses now. Rep also said i had to buy a new window glass because the new regulator was not guaranteed to work with the old glass.the new glass is not tinted to match the other car windows.there are thousands of complaints posted online, from jeep liberty owners, who have had the same problem repeatedly. There is an online petition to chrysler to recall these vehicles and absorb the expense of having these faulty regulators replaced. There is a class action suit against volks wagen for this same problem. Not knowing when one of your car windows will drop is a safety hazard.there is a potential for broken glass, a dangerous driving distraction, and i was not secure in my car, though having all doors locked, my window would not go up.this leaves the car open to easy theft.since chrysler is using a "new" window regulator, that doesn't fit the old glass, it must know of the widespread problem of their faulty original regulators.in the thousands of posted consumer complaints, regarding this problem, it shows the problem has been going on for years.customers are paying hundreds of dollars for replacement costs.
Window regulators for jeep liberty.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty.the other day i heard a noise when i was letting the window down. The window was stuck and wouldn't go down or up.i got out of my jeep and touched the rear passenger window and the window moved up and down when i tried to let the window up.i had to place card board in the window's frame to keep the window up.the next day the window fell into the window's frame and i can't get it out.this is my second night with my rear window down in my jeep.i don't have the money to repair the window right now and i'm afraid that a thief will enter my vehicle.i was surprised that this could be happening to a 2006 vehicle.i decided to research the issue on the internet and was surprised to find out that this was a common and expensiveproblem with jeep liberty's. Why are jeeps not being recalled due to this dangerous and expensive problem?
2006 jeep liberty, owned since new in late 2005 currently 75,000 miles. All windows have broken at least once, some more than once, i have lost count. First three times fixed under warranty. Last four or five times fixed at my expense.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty.the contact stated that the motor that controls the power windows was defective and stopped working numerous times.the vehicle has been taken to the dealer and they replaced the motor in the door each time.this only remedies the failure temporarily and lasts approximately 2-3 months before it fails again.the motor has been replaced at least five times.the contact has found numerous complaints on the same failure and believes the manufacturer should be responsible for this defect.the vin was unknown.the failure mileage was 30,000 and current mileage was 65,000.updated 02/24/09.*ljupdated 02/26/09.
Jeep windows:jeep changed the motor/regulator style and now you have to purchase a new window to get your electric windows to work.this is a known issue and they will not recall the motors or regulators.you can call any jeep dealer and they will admit that there is an issue with this and want the consumer to pay 1/2 the cost for something that they know is wrong.
Left rear window fell down while car was parked. Dealer service said the regulator was ok but the lift plate was broken. Yet again, this is a door that has not been used in the last 4 weeks at a minimum. Chrysler service rep who took initial call said that he gets lots of calls for this on 2005 & 2006 models. He went on to say that most of the time is it in doors that are seldom used. Chrysler case manager stated that chrysler is under no obligation to address this issue even though they know it is a manufacturer defect. Not only is this a safety issue, it is a security issue.
I bought my 2006 jeep liberty in 2007 (february) with about 15,000 miles on it.the warranty was still good for a little longer at that time.in that time at 2 of regulators on two different windows had to be replaced.since that time 2 more have been replaced out of my own pocket.now here in september 2010 the back driver side window is doing it again.the window will fall down out of place when rolled up and when you try to roll it up the motor will grind and the window will not go anywhere.this needs to be taken care of; people are out hundreds of dollars for this issue.
This is the 2nd time i have accessed your website with a complaint for the same problem.. I reported my other complaint on 09/20/2010.my rear windows just fall down for no reason.on 8/15/12 i walked out and noticed my rear driver side car window was down.when i tried to put it up, it just made a grinding noise.it just slips down into the window space leaving me with an open window while driving down the interstate in the rain.the same thing happened two years ago to both rear windows to the same vehicle.i was told by the dealership there was a defect in the 2006 jeep liberty's where this happens.it appears the windows and part that raises and lowers the window is one unit which is made of plastic.apparently it is very cheap and fragile and breaks for no reason.you have to buy the whole window/mechanical assembly and it is very expensive.please help me get my window fixed.
2006 jeep liberty sport rear window regulator failed.poor design no help from chrysler or jeep dealer total cost on me.
I own a 2006 jeep liberty, for no apparent reason the rear passenger window just fell down. I went to the dealer and they told me this is happening all the time. It seams to me that this would be a safety concern if you have children. The regulators break causing the window to fall (per mechanic).
Three window regulator failures over a 1 year span. Defective oem parts. Manufacture aware of defective parts and new upgraded parts available but at the expense of vehicle owners. Repair expense for each window is $250.00. I have researched this issue and 2002-2006 models all have these problems with all 4 window regulators having to be replaced. This should be at the cost of the manufacturer not the owner. A recall on these window regulators should be issued. I do not understand why it has not already been done!!
Right rear window regulator/motor went out again. The dealership actually said this is incredibly common and they service it regularly. Normal cost would be $220.00 however, my vehicle was made before 01/19/2006 so it's $380.00. The window won't go up and suddenly came down.
My jeep liberty 2006 has huge window issues- already have had 2 regulators replaced and working on the third- jeep says they will only fix the window lift plate, but it's the whole regulator that's bad and they refuse to fix it- if i have it fixed, it's over $300 per window, and charged me a $90 diagnostic fee to tell me this- when is a recall going to be issued? not a safety issue?!tell that to those of us with small children in the back seat and a window falls down @ 55 mph! jeep needs to replace all four window regulators and at their cost, not mine! and not just the lift plates! it's only good buisness, especially when i've already paid over $20,000 to jeep for this liberty and now can't even drive it because my windows are crahing down!
When the window regulator breaks on a jeep liberty, the cable assembly can break off of the window.the cable then can come out of the door locking assembly if you try to use the window close switch.this will prevent the door from being opened.this has happened to me twice so far in 18 months.if the vehicle were in an accident and ems needed to get a person out of the vehicle,there is no way they could in the above conditions.the number of complaints that are out there on this problem are staggering.please do something before someone gets hurt or killed by jeeps lack of response.
The window regulators in my jeep have broke. This is the 4th one for me to fix. Each time it's a different window. I have no children so my back seat rarely has patrons. It's not like those doors/windows are ever used.
My rear driver side window stopped working and would slide down until it slid down so much i had to pull it up just for it to fall completely into the door the next day. I called the dealership and they wont fix it because it was manufactured before the recall date. I have two small children and cant drive them anywhere because its to cold and the wind is to much. I can barely afford food much less a $240 window repair.
All thewindow regulators in my 2006 jeep liberty have failed and i am on my 2nd go round now. Had one replaced on 7/12 and on 7/14 had another one fail. I simply cannot afford the $1000 to fix both within a 3 day time period.i'm sorry - this is really unacceptable for chrsyler to have not issued a recall. It is a safety issue! .because of the high cost involved that i just couldn't afford i had a friend "rig" yet another of the windows only a few short months ago and now it cannot be opened at all. Please do something about this issue. I see hundreds of other complaints online from jeep owners that have had the same problem over and over.thank you for listening!
The windows on my 2006 jeep liberty sport constantly break and thus the window is forced all the way down and i then have to drive with it open or tape a plastic bag to keep the rain out until i can get to the dealership.in the past 3 years since i have owned the car, i have had to bring in my car on 8 separate occasions for the same exact problem.each door window has broken twice.i feel as though the safety of my car in is jeopardy when the window is fully down and do not feel safe not being able to put it up when driving, especially at night.this model's windows and regulators should be recalled.having to pay for the windows and missing work to have them replaced is unacceptable. Thank you.
Used vehicle, carfax shows issue with window regulator twice before i bought the vehicle. While driving down road with my window 1/2 way down, the window just went crashing into the door.the window glass did not break. Jeep does not issue a replacement part for the window regulator so you have to go directly to the dealership to order the part @ $225 or have them replace it for @ $400.
This is the 3rd time in 5 years that the ds rear window regulator has failed causing the window to slide down the track. The lastest occurrence happened while driving down the freeway at 60 mph. The window was not being operated at the time of the failure.
The driver's side rear window just suddenly fell into the door; it doesn't respond to the power window button; there is no noise at all; like there is no motor or anything supporting it.
I have a 2006 jeep liberty with approximately 55k miles on it.i use my windows very infrequently.in the past two weeks both the front driver's side and front passenger side window regulators have broken.i have seen on a couple web sites that this is a known and recurring problem with this model.
My 2006 jeep liberty crd has had 4 window regulators fail in 28 months. I have 39,800 miles on the vehicle. I am the original owner.
2006 jeep liberty window regulator went bad.on august 20, 2008, i noticed that my rear driver's side window was down a bit.tried to power it up, but it would go.eventually slid down into door.i did some internet research and found thousands of people that had to have regulators replaced multiple times.
I was driving my 2006 jeep liberty down the freeway with windows up and doors locked.i heard a loud "pop" from behind.then, the left rear passenger window began to slide down.this was a windy, rainy day.the distractions created by the "pop", the rain blowing in the open window, and the potential for items inside the vehicle to blow out created a series of safety concerns.i have since discovered that the window regulator problem is rampant with this particular model of vehicle and that others have had similar problems while driving down the road.
2006 jeep liberty- vehicles window tracks defective with plastic clips. Window would fall down due to defective plastic window clips holding windows onto tracks. I would put thepower window up and the next thing the window would fall down. The dealership informed me it would cost $400 to fix the problem. I've seen numerous complaints online but no recalls were put into effect. The cost to repair this defective product is $400 each window. Also the original window that's is still good cannot be reattached according to dealership service department. I was informed that the new part would include the track and window together. So what do i do with the original window that is still good. This problem needs to be address. I feel owners of 2006 jeep liberty's should not have to paid due to a defective plastic clip. Please have chrysler jeep do a recall on this problem it needs to be addressed.
Left rear power window regulator failed causing window to fall. Inability to closed window creates cabin pressure oscillations at all speeds. The pressure oscillations create a distraction to the driver and impair the driver's hearing.

Power window regulator broke/needed replaced on 2006 jeep liberty. Second one to fail, first covered under warranty, second was not (price 340.00 dollars). Happened to both rear windows which are rarely down.
1. Operating normally2. Power window failure. Occurs every 20k miles of normal use. Failure due to a broken plastic bracket that attaches the window to the regulator wire coil. When failure occurs, window may slip down resulting in possible weather damage and security risks. 3. The factory fix is costly and doesn't replace the plastic bracket. The permanent fix is to replace that bracket with a metal one for about $90 + 1 hrs labor per window.

I own a 2006 jeep liberty. The rear left window fell.i never received any recall letter stating there was a problem with the windows.april 2013 i came out of work to find my diver side window down. Called the dealership and they informed me that there was only two months before the recall was over.last year i started having problems with my check engine light coming on.i was told that it could be 1 of 2 things plugs or o2 sensors. I had the plugs and the upper and lower bank o2 sensors done 9 months ago. My check engine light has gone on and off over the last 7 months.i can't afford to do the sensors every time the light goes on.i have had fuel spill problems that started about a month ago. When filling my gas tank the pump doesn't shut off fast enough and there is an overflow of gasoline.not only is this a fire hazard but with the price of gas its a lot money wasted. Also two weeks ago my jeep has been losing power while driving.
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. Thenon 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.
On my jeep liberty the rear window on the passenger's side will not roll up.i drove to fill up my gas tank on tuesday evening, and when i was reentering my vehicle after filling up, i noticed that this window was down. I am not absolutely positive, but i highly doubt i would have been able to drive to the gas station without noticing the wind noise with that window down. Anyways, i used the button to try and roll it up and it didn't move. After a couple of tries with the button, an odd grinding sound started coming from the door. I got out and went around to see what was happening.i opened the door and used the rear buttons to roll it up, and the noise continued as well as some kind of pipe/wire came out of the door.when i tried to gently wiggle the window to see if it was bent or something, the part that was still up slid into the door (so the whole window is down now and won't roll up).i live in a dorm at a huge school, so having my whole car exposed by this open window makes me extremely nervous.i have taped a trash bag over it for now in case it rains, but it's awfully loud when i'm driving, and i doubt it will last much longer.i haven't taken it to a dealer yet because i wanted to look on the internet to see if this was happening to anyone else. I've seen so many complaints and similar stories that i am quite upset about the circumstances.
The window don't work and we have to tape them shut because wecan't afford to fix them will this be a recall.
2006 jeep liberty...this is the third time the window regulator has broken within less then a month.
2006 jeep liberty with electronic window failure. Consumer states that the rear electronic windows have failed and the right one has failed twice. Mechanic states that it is a regulator/cable problem.
Rolled the passenger window down and it just fell down. Now all i hear when i try to roll the window up is a grinding noise. Found out that it is the window regulator.
The window regulators in my 2006 jeep liberty have broken and fallen down 10 different times in the past 4 years that i have owned the vehicle.the first 9 times were bothersome and about 450.00 each to get fixed but this last one is a safety hazard.i have a 10 week old baby and the window decided to fall down in the middle of a storm and i had to pull over on the interstate to pull the window back up to stop the flood of rain that was falling on my (at the time) 8 week old baby.my baby was screaming his head off as i am sure that much rain coming in the wide opened window at 50-60 (was driving slower due to low visibility in storm) miles an hour did not feel good.i had to find the right time to pull off the road then climb in back, undo car seat, slide it over and duct tape the window.i was alone and then had to reattach the car seat to the base and dry off my infant.i am thankful that no one hit us while i was parked on the interstate in a rainstorm with my child not buckled in to the car.i was in a panic trying to fix this.now jeep is refusing to fix this free of charge due to lack of recall.please make them recall this defective part so this does not happen again.i live in mobile, al and it is scorching hot and i can't be driving him around with the window down.also, it doesn't stay up for more than a day with the duct tape because of the heat melting the glue on the tape.it's just dangerous.
Power window regulator failed this is second time a window regulator has failedone back and one front window.this is not only a hazard but could cause moredamage if raining.there is also a child hazard if the window came down atthe wrong time.bad part still under warranty they will fix but need new type part.
I was driving home with my wife and 7 month old baby in her car seat while driving, all of a sudden the rear passenger side window completely drops inside the door. I'm very upset about this due to if the window would've broke or shattered it could've hurt our new born baby. I have since looked online and have seen thousands of similar cases with the same problem (2006 jeep liberty). I don't know why chrysler has not recalled this problem with the windows when soo many people are having the same re-occurring issue. Im stuck now with a bill from the dealer due to the warranty does not cover the whole cost of the repair which they explained that i need to replace the motor, window regulator also the glass. Keep in mind i jus purchased this vehicle in january 4 months later im already having problems.

I have a 2006 jeep liberty and i have 3 broken window regulators that have been known to repeatedly break on theliberty's with normal use.jeep does not recognize this as a defect and expects their customers to continually repair them.on top of this, jeep recently upgraded the window regulators, so that when you go to replace them, they no longer fit the existing window and you must replace the window as well.this has cause a great amount of economic stress for myself and many other jeep owners who are forced to keep handing over money to jeep for a part that they know is defective.
This will be the fourth year that i have had to replace the rear driver side window mechanism in my 2006 jeep liberty.each year, the mechanism has failed while my vehicle was parked and not running (august 2007, june 2009, july 2010, june 2011).i have been told there is a recall for some models of jeep's to fix this problem but not for my vin group. I feel this is a safety issue as i cannot secure my vehicle while i am away and someone would be able to get into my vehicle and could be waiting for me to come back.also, the integrity of the interior is compromised if an accident would occur due to the window not being up.the window mechanism has been replaced each year but with the same part.no modifications have been done to help ensure this problem will not happen again.i have called jeep customer service and was told to use this website to lodge my complaint.my local dealerships have been very helpful with resolving this problem each year.
Windowsfalling.
1.there are not events leading up to the failure.2.the rear drivers side window regulator.it has broken 3 times in two years.the consequence is that during times of extreme heat or cold, the window will stay down posing a health risk (in cold weather-cold related illness and in hot weather-dehydration) as well as a safety risk (outside debris entering vehicle at high velocities) to the rear passenger.3.the regulator has been replaced three times: twice by dealership and once by myself.the old parts are not available.
The rear passenger side window fell off of its track and fell down inside the door, where my 3 year old daughter was seated, while the vehicle was being driven 65 mph down a major highway, on the way to visit family out of state.i had a similar incident a year ago, but with thedriverside window.this window track was covered under warranty but the glass had to be paid out of pocket (because of a change done to the new track).the recent passenger side window is in the process of being repaired.
As i was driving with my sons in the back seat, we heard a loud bang on the right back passenger side. The window started to roll down into the door shift. I was able to pull over and catch the window and manually push it back up. It then fell completely into the door shift. It was 17 degrees outside and we had to ride all thewayhomewith the window down. This is dangerous because the noise surprised us and could have caused and accident. Please research this.
I have had two window regulators in my 2006 jeep liberty unlimited 4x4 go out in less than 4 months. I know by reading other peoples complaints in forums that chrysler knows that their parts were defective and in order to get this fixed you have to replace the regulator as well as the window. This is something that chrysler should be taking care of.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While operating the vehicle, a loud and sudden banging noise occurred due to the rear passenger side window suddenly coming off track and falling into the door panel. The contact indicated that the failure occurred on multiple occasions on both passenger side windows and the rear driver side window. Each time the failure occurred, the vehicle was taken to westbury jeep/chrysler located in westbury, ny where it was diagnosed that the window regulators failed and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 15,000.
I have a faulty window regulator in my back right window. I have had each window fixed at least once due to a faulty window regulator. I have one window fixed twice. This issue was previously covered under an extended warranty; however, the latest issue occurred after the extended warrant expired. Currently the back right window won't stay up. I've pushed it up on a weekly basis and it slowly falls. I'm concerned that pretty soon i'll have to keep the window up using tape or other measures. It's not safe to drive with the window constantly falling, especially if and when i have children in the back seat of my car.
In 2006 jeep liberty, driver's side rear window dropped in door while driving at slow speed in a parking lot.when attempt was made to roll window up with power window switch strange noise was made and window remained down in door.broken piece of plastic was found at bottom of the door.this is definitely a manufacturers defect and a different replacement part has been made, showing that the original is not acceptable but consumer is expected to absorb the cost.
Window regulators fail.jan of 08 rt rear window fell into door panel.july of 08 the left rear window dropped into door panel.now, just as 3 year warranty is over the driver's side front fell.have gone to dealer and since i am no where close to having warranty miles on vehicle they said they would do a courtesy repair.but, since 3 have failed i assume the 4th will go next and who will have to pay for that failed regulator replacement
Vehicle parked in lot - not moving at all - driver side rear window dropped in door.unable to lift with power window button.this is the seventh window regulator to fail on this vehicle - fourth one for this particular door.dealer diagnosed as failed regulator and indicated that manufacturer fix for this problem is replacement of regulator part and window glass - $575.
Driver side rear power window regulator broke 2 times within 6 months. (same window)dropped while driving - 1st time it broke it was repaired costing me $259.52 - 2nd time it broke i have a temp fix holding window up b/c i'm not wasting $ to fix it if it is just going to break again in 6 months.. I cant afford to keep fixing something jeep should have recalled. This is a well known jeep liberty 06 problem.
2006 jeep liberty has defective windows that fall down and present a safety hazard.the 2007 jeep liberty vehicles have a lifetime warranty for the same defect.this is dangerous and should be covered by the same warranty.
Rear passenger electric window failed. Slid down, would not close.repaired. Failed again about the 4th of fifth time it was used.

Today was the 3rd time my window electrical window mechanism has broke.the first time, chrysler paid to fix it as it was one of their - hidden - defects that they do not wish to publish.now they say that they no longer cover the defect as the car is older.if there is a design issue and a known one, should they not have to stand behind their product?now i will have to spend another $250 or more to get it fixed.jeep needs to stand behind their product.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The left rear window motor assembly regulator failed and was replaced several times by the owner. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was verified that the regulator motor drive assembly was defective and repairs would be made at the owners expense. The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that they were aware of the failure but would not assume liability for the repairs due to the vehicle being outside of the factory warranty.

The consumer stated using the same defective parts was not going to fix the problem.also, when the windows were down, there was a thumping and wind noise, that was unbearable. The consumer stated things were stolen out of his vehicle, because the windows would not go up. Also there was a noise coming from the rear of the vehicle and the doors would vibrate when the windows were down.
My latest jeep, a 2006 liberty (with fewer than 16000 miles), has gone to the shop 5 times for 5 broken windows(cables/regulators). They just rolled down one day and refused to roll back up again.the first window broke about one month after i purchased the suv.another of the windows has broken twice, within 6 months of the first "repair."then i had to take it in recently with two windows broken at the same time.it's ridiculous! updated 10/10/07.
2006 jeep liberty window regulators fail multiple times; possible crash hazard due to unexpected falling windows.
This is the sixth time one of the windows has gotten stuck all the way down. Ihave a child, and cannot drive with open windows. Not only am iworried about theft, but i don't want anything flying into the car while driving. It is saturday, and i won't be able to get in touch with the dealership until tuesday, due to the memorial day weekend. I will morre than likely have to miss work because i can't drive on the freeway with a window down, and i have to park in an area that is not good.
I purchased a used 2006 jeep liberty 4x4 last december and since that time i have had to replace 4 broken window regulators. Clearly these plastic regulators are substandard and easily break. There appear to be hundreds, if not thousands of complaints online relating to the same problem.
My 2006 jeep liberty's back driver's side window regulator is broken. The window will not stay up and falls down part way when you are driving and needs to be pulled back up manually when you stop. When you press the button for the window, you can hear the window motor running, but the window will not go up. This happened when the vehicle had just over 48,000 miles.this seems to be a very common complaint for the 2006 jeep liberty and an extended warranty has been issued by chrysler to repair 2006 jeep liberty's with this problem which were manufactured after march, 2006. My jeep was manufactured in feb. Of 2006. This window regulator warranty needs to be extended to all 2006 jeep liberty's. According to comments on the internet, this repair can be $400 and up.
Jeep liberty 2006, manufactured in september of 2005. Repeated failure of passenger and driver side window regulators. A known issue and a cause for the recall, but only for cars made as of february of 2006. Window regulators are just as faulty on jeep liberty's 2006 that were made in previous months. Endless replacements at $600 each time. These cars need to be recalled as sudden window failures may result in unsafe driving conditions and as a result, in accidents.
I left work today and walked out to my car to find my back driver side window down. When i tried to put it up, it wouldn't go. This is the third time i have had this problem on the same vehicle and this will be the second time, almost a year to the day, that this window has had this problem. The regulator will need to be replaced, again, and the cost will again be over $300.00. Even after the regulator is replaced my vehicle will not be safe. The complete randomness of this occurrence and the fact that this is the second time on the same window within a year, leaves me to believe that it will happen again. I can no longer leave anything of value in my car. I have to be careful when traveling with my dogs. I won't be able to take children in my car without another adult present. The window falls completely into the door leaving the space totally open and unsafe. After researching this i have found that there are thousands of people having this same problem, it is only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.
Rear passenger windows fall off track and slip into door while driving.windows cannot be rolled back up.
My automatic windows keep breaking - this is the 3rd time in.
My mother bought a used 2006 jeep liberty has never had a problem,so in march of 2010 me and my husband decided to purchase a used 2006 jeep liberty from a trusty car dealer. Within 2 months of having this jeep our right rear window dropped into the door as we were driving to a family function. My biggest fear was that 1 of our 3 kids could have been hurt by broken glass. My father repaired the window by wedging a piece of wood between the door and the window. I later called jeep who told me there was no recall on this jeep and that they would gladly split the cost with me which only cost $600 per window and they won't warranty because they know it will happen again. I left it alone cause we could not afford this at the time. A few months later in november 2010 the left side rear window slipped,once again my father repaired it at best he could. I finally went online to see what i could do repair the problem myself at a cheaper cost. I came across a web site steigers.com the gentleman who owns this company has created a replacement piece for the broken part and it works great. I replaced it myself with no knowledge of repairing cars. The only hard part was working in such a tight space..thank god my hands are small enough to squeeze in between the door and the window area. The part is about a $100 with shipping and handling and so far seems to have solved the problem it took about an hour to do all the work on 1 window. Thats not our only problem with this lovely vehicle we have also had problems with the fuel spilling out when filling the tank. The tank seems to build pressure or catch air. I don't know all i know is it scared me really bad the first time.and we have also had problems with the esp especially when you hit a turn to hard or hit a big bump. How wonderful a 4x4 vehicle who doesn't like big turns,bumps or snow. And the most expensive part is the broken window..they told me its called a binding crack it happens to all jeeps so don't force your jeep to do its job..and work.
1. Using the front, power controls, i rolled down the each of the 4 windows of my 2006 jeep liberty to 3/4. 2. My rear, drivers window did not roll back up with the remainder when prompted from the front controls. My passengers and i heard a slight clicking a grinding, then the window fell to 1/2 open. At this point, the window will not move up or down.3. My garage diagnosed the issue as a failed motor and regulator. Says he changed several in the past month. Talks about how each of the jeeps are made with poor wiring and regulators, and how he changes several, outside of warranty, at $500 a job. Chrysler has yet to recall a known issue that the have had in the past with the same equipment; though they have recalled this equipment for the same issues in the past. This continued use of poor components should not be the consumers burden to bear. Please urge a recall on power window regulators and motors for the 2006 jeep liberty.
I was driving home in my 2006 jeep liberty, when the back passenger side power window fell again!this is the second time this week that one of the power windows fall.i have had this window and two other windows serviced for this very problem before and it and chrysler continues to be unable to fix it!when it fell, it was raining, and i had to hurry to get home because it was raining inside of the jeep.i should not have to keep a garbage bag in my vehicle just in case my window falls.this seems to happen to at least two windows every three or four months for us.when we bring it to the service department, it seems to work fine for a while until sooner or later it falls again.they tell us that a plastic clip holds the window up, and the window falls when the clip gives out.it seems like this plastic clip must be pretty weak to go out as often as this!we don't even put the window up or down at all.the service department says that the part can go out whether the window is in use or not because of the tension it holds.when asked about any recalls on this part, their response was that recalls are only issued when a safety violation can occur.it is a safety violation to me!when the windows fall, and my children are in the car and it is storming outside that certainly affects my driving because i am concerned for the safety of my kids!i wonder what damage would be caused if the window falls and shatters inside the door?how would chrysler respond to that?chrysler seems to take this as no big deal, but i believe that someone can get seriously injured because of this defect.can we please get something done about this before something does happen to someone?
The window regulator of my rear driver's side window broke causing the window to fall into the door.luckily my car was parked at the time and i don't live in an area that is getting snowed on.this is at least the 12th time one of the regulators has broke since i bought my car in 2006.
This problem with the window regulators has been an ongoing problem since we bought this car new. The dates of repair are as follow from newest to oldest, 10/10/11,10/22/10,9/30/10,8/10/09,3/13/08,12/11/07,4/10/07,4/5/07,3/16/07,1/24/07,11/07/06,11/03/06. We have taken this car to the dealer this many times for the same problem. We have never paid a penny for the repairs. The manufacturer is now asking us to pay 100$ saying isa warranty issue. The problem is that they know they have a defective part but cannot fix it. They have recalled on some models of this car. Ours is not included in this recall. This trip for us to take this car in for the initial check is 230 miles then we have to wait for the authorization of repairs to take it back is another 230 miles. It is not reasonable for us to pay for the manufacturers faulty parts. We are out of pocket 12 times for the time and gas to go over there. This window regulator is defective and when it snaps the window rod breaks jams the door locking mechanism the door then will not stay closed or it will not open. We are also filing claims with the consumer affairs and national transportation safety board.

2006 jeep liberty - faulty window regulator and chrysler/jeep's reluctance to rectify this well-documented problem at their cost.

The regulators on the power windows on my 2006 jeep liberty break repeatedly.i just dropped my car off at my local auto repair to fix the rear passenger and the front driver windows. These have both been fixed before.these are incidents 6 and 7.
Window fell in door, rear passenger on drivers side. Self replaced motorwindow in doorsystem. Plastic part inside snaps or shears off.bought a replacement part that has metal stops. No problems. Have replaced all four window motors. They all snapped at different times.by husband
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. While the vehicle wasparked, the contact attempted to activate the automatic window regulator which failed to operate. The contact informed that the front passenger, rear passenger and driver side window regulators and window glass were replaced at different times by the dealer under the service warranty. However, the contact was responsible for the expense of the window glass replacements which was not covered under the warranty. Recently, the front driver side window regulator malfunctioned. The vehicle was in the process of being taken to the dealer for repair. The failure mileage was 10,391.
Within the last year all four windows on my 2006 jeep liberty have failed, one of them for the second time since i have owned the car.the first window failed september of 2009.i had my window partly down and when i went to roll it up it made a terrible noise and the glass fell into the door.i paid to have it repaired which cost me $600.in august of 2010 the back two windows began to fall into the door on their own, i had not tried to roll them down, as i was driving. This happened within a week of each other.when i took it to the dealer they suggested i call jeep to request help.jeep agreed to repair both of these windows for me.within one week of the repair the front passenger side window fell into the door as i came to a stop in a parking lot.i am currently waiting to hear from jeep about the repair of this window.i cannot believe that this happened to my car five times in total, (the first window went out about three years ago.)
Left rear power window regulator assembly failed when trying to raise the window.i heard a loud pop, followed the sound of the motor working, but the window wouldn't raise.scary, as my small child was in the seat next to the window.i have been given an estimate of $428 to fix the problem.i am adding my complaint to the long list in the hopes that chrysler & jeep would finally fix this systemic issue.since this is both a safety and security issue, maybe the nhtsa can help!
In the last four years of ownership of a 2006 jeep liberty sport the rear passenger windows have suddenly just fallen down into the door panel a total of five times. It has happened twice while driving and three times between uses of the vehicle. When it happens while driving there is a popping noise and a thump when the window goes down. When driving this causes an immediate distraction to driver and passengers which has not caused an accident yet but is always a concern for future occurrence. Also of concern is that my research has shown thousands upon thousands of consumers who experience this same issue. I have included all the sites on this incident that i have so far found.

The power window on the right rear and the left rear doors have failed.the regulator was defective on the right rear door and was repaired by the dealer while under warranty but it still cost me $100.now the left rear power window does not want to raise the window and it is no longer under warranty.

Power window regulator failure.window will not go up or down.have seen many, many complaints of the exact same problem.makes driving in rain impossible, and caused an accident when the window would not go up on the interstate.
I have reviewed that there are have been multiple complaints regarding faulty window regulators on these particular chrysler vehicles. These plates in the window regulators give out causing the auto glass to slide down inside the door. I have had to have both rear regulators replaced twice and recently my front passenger regulator gave out. I have had 3 regulators replaced prior to my vehicle reaching 30,000 miles. My recent issue: my front window began to lower on its on while i was driving when i attempted to raise the window with the switch it then immediately fell down inside the door causing rain/hail to enter my vehicle while i was driving. I contacted chrysler and they have offered no solution stating there is no recall for this part even though there are numerous consumer complaints about the faulty regulators.
Rear driver side power window dropped full open unexpectedly on 2006 jeep liberty; original owner of vehiclewith 71,00+/- miles. Repaired at dealer(costly). From internet search appears this problem is systemic to 2006-2007 models and repeat failure not unheard of...very scary at 65mph.
I bought my liberty brand new. Since i have had it i have had to replace the regulator in all of my windows. The back windows are the worst. The driver's side window has been replaced 5-7 times and the passenger's side has been replaced 4-6 times. There is no warning.i have been driving down the road and all of the sudden the window starts to fall down into the door.the dealer charges to fix it and replaces it with the same faulty part.i have paid over $1500 for a problem that keeps occurring. I live in arizona and thought that it was because of the heat but then one of the service advisors told me that it's the part that is causing the problems. Jeep should issue a recall for this part.this is a serious safety issue.i have children in my back seat on a regular basis.debris from the road could fly through the window and hit them.if someone leans on the window when it's taped up it could easily fall down into the door resulting in an injury.thankfully, i have never had anyone injured to date, however, it's only a matter of time.
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. She stated that the rear door window became stuck and she was forced to physically pull the window open with her hand. The left front and rear window regulator also failed when she rolled the window down. The failure occurred on three times. The windows also roll down automatically by themselves and would not close. The dealer stated that they would repair the window failures per the warranty which there were 3 repairs on the regulators. The failure mileage was 35,000 and the current mileage was 36,000.
I have had multiple window regulators break in my vehicle. I have replaced 3 of them at least twice. I have replaced on once, which is the only one i did not have replaced by chrysler. It is the only one that has not broken again. I have contacted chrysler and they refuse to help out in any way to pay for these. It needs to be a recalled part, and they need to make a part that will actually not break. My small child has to ride in the back seat with a window down, my vehicle is open for anyone to just get into my vehicle at any time, and any time it rains, snows, anything else i get all type of weather in the vehicle. I have received terrible customer service from chrysler .
The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the windows would suddenly roll down at any time. The contact pulled the window apart and noticed that the window regulator had failed on all windows. The vehicle had not been inspected when the complaint was filed. The vin was unavailable at the time of the complaint. The failure mileage was approximately 39,000. The current mileage was approximately 42,000.
2006 jeep liberty passenger side rear window falls on its own and will not come back up.
The driver's rear window regulator broke and now the window will not go up and down and slides down by itself. Chrysler only sells the motor and regulator and everything as one package, so even though i can hear the motor working and it is most likely a broken piece of plastic, because that is what jeeps use for regulators, that is causing the problem im going to have to pay 300 dollars to buy everything. If chrysler would use a metal bracket as a regulator instead of a cheap piece of plastic there would not be so many problems with jeep liberty's window regulators breaking. And since they don't sell regulators by themselves it is almost like chrysler is doing it just to make more money and that they don't care about their customers at all. It is a little bit ridiculous that they have not recalled these shotty quality regulators or even addressed the problem at all.
Jeep liberty 2006 left rear window crashed down while driving. Regulator broken found that there where many complaints on this with jeep.
The driver side window came off track and slid down into the door, while my wife was driving on a major highway.
2006 jeep liberty.just had a third window fall into the door of my vehicle.i have already replaced two, costing me $200 a piece with an extended warranty.my car was left exposed to elements all night and luckily was not broken into.the window motors fail for no apparent reason.the new mechanism requires a whole new window.jeep knows about this problem, there are tons of posts on the internet where the same thing has happened to other people.jeep is ripping off it's customers, it should pay for the replacement of the windows.what if it falls down while i am driving down the interstate in the rain with my two kids in the back?it's shameful.
Front power windows fall out of track while going up requiring the driver to remove hands from the steering wheel to make correction. Windshield wipers which are supposed to be on their own fuse according to manual quit working if the radio fuse blows.
No known cause of defect except cheap/faulty parts from manufacturer. Window regulator fixed numerous time, resorted to duct tape that does not hold. Windows won't stay up, defective window regulator for 2006 jeep liberty. Numerous consumer complaints. This is a safety issue, especially for those of us who work nights and have to approach the vehicle with the window not intact. The vehicle is not secure.
My windows are falling into the well of my 2006 jeep liberty doors for no reason at all.dealers are not openly offering to replace with updated parts.i was told that the cost would be up to $500 per window and offering to have chrysler make good of the defect.i was told thewindow regulators were defected and that chrysler was aware of the problem.if you know there is a problem, just have the dealer replace and file with chrysler to make this a "good service policy".

The window regulator on the 2006 jeep liberty has a plastic part that continually breaks causing the window to slam down and sometimes shatter with passengers in the rear seat.jeep's solution...replacing the $200+ assembly with the same cheap plastic slide window mount.
Rear drivers side window slid into the door with no warning. Took it to the dealership and was told it was the window regulator and it would cost $500 to fix it.
From the first day that i bought the 2006 jeep liberty, the driver side window "fell" off the track, requiring me to manually push the window back into place before the window would close correctly.in addition, a few months into owning the jeep, a piece of rubber fell off of the driver side door/window area.during a recall repair, i advised the dealer of the broken window and the piece of rubber that had fallen from the vehicle.although the window was supposedly fixed and the rubber piece put back on the vehicle, the window again began to fall off the track within a week of the repair.the rubber piece also fell off from the driver side door/window again, also within weeks of the repair.

Rear window regulator failed again only this time with the seven month old secured in her car seat in the rear seat this time. This is not the first time one of these windows has failed when the switch is activated. They have failed twice before in this vehicle over the period we've owned it. This vehicle was purchased new from the dealer and has been an ongoing problem with the windows.
Driver side power window stuck midway and i could not open the door, the regulator cable hung up with door latch, had to replace the regulator assembly. Glad i did not have to make an emergency exit.
2006 jeep liberty - three window failures within a four month period (two back windows and driver side front window.paid over $600 to repair the back windows but when the 3rd one failed, we contacted chrysler and we were told to have it repaired and chrysler would pay the dealer for the repairs.we asked about the previous repairs and were told to write to chrysler customer service and include copies of invoices.we are in the process of doing this and don't have any response yet.
The windows fall down into the door. This has happened repeatedly, sometimes when driving on the highway and is dangerous. Jeep should replace the faulty window regulators.
There are no events leading up to the failure of the window regulator. Suddenly and without warning the window will drop inside the door and it cannot be opened with the window controls.the window regulator must be replaced to correct this problem.
Have now had to replace all four power window regulators.75,000 miles
Rear passenger side window fell down into door while driving.this occurred when i used the power window switch to lower window slightly. 5 year old nephew in rear seat saturated by rain. Unable to pull over right away due since i was driving on interstate 80.this is the 5th time a window regulator is this vehicle, 2006 jeep liberty, has failed in the past 3 years.

Updated 062909the consumer stated the dealer fixed the problem. Updated 07/07/09.
All four electric window motors have failed at least once, some more than once. This appears to be a known issue for jeep liberty's and warrants an investigation and recall notice as repair of this known defect can be as costly as $350-500.
Automatic windows keep coming out of their track. Have had three of the four windows fixed and the same problem occurred. Had the same windows replaced with a system involving replacing the whole window and the defected part inside of the door. Two of the three windows were fixed for the second time out of warranty but now chrysler is stating i have to pay for the after market tint and they will reimburse me part of the price but cannot say how much until after i replace the window tint.
Both rear windows on my 2006 jeep liberty fell down into the doors. The rear windows had only been lowered and raised four times. The first one fellat 19,000 miles; the second fell at 22,000 miles on vehicle.
I am having problems with my 2006 jeep liberty passenger window regulators. I have seen many complaints online about this problem and chrysler jeep has done nothing to solve the problem.a recall for the window regulators needs to be put into place.why should the car owners keep putting out money to fix the windows when the replacement part will only be another plastic part that will break again in time!
Driving down the road at 40 mph. Was not rolling up or down the power windows, when the back window suddenly fell from being closed to half open. It would not roll back up. It was startling and distracted my driving momentarily. Faulty regulators were the cause of previous failures and the broken glass and i expect the same determination will be made when i bring it to a jeep dealership later this week for repair. The most recent (nov. 29, 2010) failure on the driver's side back window was the second time this occurred on this particularly window. Previous repairs involved window and regulator replacement. This is a massive problem with jeep liberty suvs and a real serious safety concern in my opinion.

Back windows keep falling in to the back doors. I have to replace the window regulators every six months. I'm on my second replacement drivers side back window and tree trips to fix it in one year. Then in one year the passengers side fell in an i had to replace this widow regulator too. This is becoming costly and seems to be a defect in this model 2006 jeep liberty. Please investigate. I'm getting really tired of repairing these window regulators.
I have had to replace window regulator and window two times.(once on rear passenger window and one on rear driver side window) due to regulator failure.in both cases window slipped into the door.in both cases window and regulator were replaced.old parts remained at the dealership repair shop.
Right rear power window regulator failed causing window to fall. Inability to close window creates cabin pressure oscillations at all speeds. These pressure changes are intense and cause a distraction and limit driver's hearing.
Window regulator has broke and window will not stay up.
Left rear window fell down while the car was parked. This door is seldom used and the window had not been activated since i purchased it in 2006. Chrysler service dept. Stated the regulator had to be replaced.because it was "only" 1200 miles out of warranty, chrysler customer service would cover all but $100 of the cost. Internet search revealed multiple accounts of this issue.
2006 jeep liberty, the motor for my windows are always breaking i have had to get them fixed 6 times now since i bought it in 2007 the fact that i have to drive an hour to the dealership every time and spend $106 to get them repaired not including the gas i have to spend on getting to this place is just pathetic. I have come across many people with the same complaint and im absolutely tired of going through the same thing not everyone has the time or money to be going through this and from what im getting jeep is not take responsibility in this !
While driving the car the windows fall down and possibly break under right circumstances and all eventually fall down and don't work when fall make big bang scares the driver at high speed you think you hit someone!!
My power window regulator for the passenger side rear window went out on me this morning.the window motor is fine, but the linkage that connects to the window is broken.this cannot be fixed by simple small part, the mopar is ripping off the public by requiring the entire assembly.the entire design needs to be overhauled, because it is a simple fix that should not require the entire replacement of the system.
Window assembly in 2006 jeep liberty keeps failing i have had three fixed.
Left rear drivers side window fell. Will not go up. Door will not open or close properly. The other windows are starting to go out. I can tell now, by the sound. The rear window has been used 3 times. I have only had the jeep for 18 months. The replacement part seems to fail right after it is put in. At $550.00 per window at my dealer i can not get them fixed. But now my kids can not ride in the backseat because i am afraid the window will fall.

I own a 2006 jeep liberty. Problem with the regulators on the windows. They are defective and chrysler jeep needs to correct the problem. Windows fall down and then the regulator needs to be replaced. The first two (one happened in march 2009, the other window in may 2009) were covered by warranty. The third came down november 09 and is not covered under warranty. Chrysler is indicating i'm going to have to pay a "co-pay" if they're going to cover any cost of the repair. Chrysler knows this is a defect, i have researched online and found several instances of the same types of problems occurring. Chrysler indicated to me since a "manufacture product recall" has not occurred, they are not responsible for the problem. What a load of xx!!!
I kept hearing this noise on right side....window went down and wont come back up..it was like a popping sound.
Power windows of jeep liberty 2006 4x4 failed a second time. After driving on highway i realized that rear window on passenger side slid down into door and could not be pushed up again.this had happened the first time in july 2008 and was repaired under warranty. The window regulator was replaced. The failing of the power windows is a safety issue. The car can not safely left alone closed because the window always will slide down without warning-> rain damage, theft.load can get damaged or fall out of the car, kids or pets can get hurt. The dealership states that the whole window assembly needs to be exchanged ($750) although the window is not damaged. This failure of the window regulators is common on 2006 and older models. Jeep has to do a recall and provide reliable and safe power windows on liberty 2006 and older models.
No events leading to failure, rear driver side window suddenly went down while driving on interstate.
Jeep 2006 liberty bought new 12/26/06. As of today my jeep will be brought back to the dealerships service dept. To have the back passenger side window looked at.i have had issues with the jeep regarding the windows since 2007.the dealership has replaced the regulators and the windows had to be replaced.the last time the regulator and window was replaced was august 2008 and not even a year later the same issue occurs.the is something that chrysler needs to address and have resolved for other owners who are having the same problems.
While driving with my daughter, i pushed the button to close the open sunroof and heard a loud popping noise. A part flew off of the vehicle and the sunroof would no longer close. After taking it to the dealership, it was determined that the entire module failed and needed replacing. I only had 37,500 miles on the vehicle. This repair cost over $1000 and had to be done as a security issue would exist with an open sunroof that is not able to be closed. Contacted chrysler jeep and they refused to cover any of the cost for this defective part.

We are the original owners of the jeep liberty 2006 that had a recall on the ball joints and stabilizer bars in 2006.of course, we had the vehicle repaired when the jeep was only a few months old.it may have had less than 1000 miles on it at the time.when visiting the dealer on dec 2, 2014 for an oil change and tire balance.i was informed that the ball joints on driver's and passenger's side of jeep were in need of replacement at a cost of 1100.00(we only have 61,600 miles on jeep) i was shocked that a vehicle that has been garage kept and only driven by the mom of the family around town of about 6000 miles a year could incur such a drastic problem.this is a valid safety issue with the integrity of the recall.the repair should have a lifetime warranty or at least 100k miles.there is absolutely no way, these ball joints disintegrated without being faulty from the being.my question lies if my vehicle was really taken care of, or was it just looked at because it was brand new at the time.our liberty has had full synthetic oil changes and treated with the utmost care.so it really saddens me that chrysler has such "safety" issues.of all things that can go wrong with a car, when it refers to a previous recall, it's obvious the issue was never really addressed.

Keep liberty limited edition 2006 issue with front and back control arms along with suspension issues. I have fixed this 2 to 3 times in about 2 years.

The jeep was being driven by my granddaughter leaving her work at starbucks, when she tried to exit the parking lot the right front ball joint dropped out and the jeep set down on the a-frame and stopped.had this happened on the highway she could have been badly hurt or even killed.chrysler has a recall on this specific problem for the 06 jeep liberty but insist that a recall is issued by vin number, which does not make sense, the ball joint is a very bad design and the should recall all 2006 or later models with this condition.
Front left lower ball broke causing tire and wheel blowout and loss of steering control at 60 mph. Was on highway on right hand curve.
Spontaneous ball joint separation
We purchased a used 2006 jeep liberty last year. Last night we went to drive it up the road and the right front passenger side tire disengaged from the steering knuckle and the ball joint disconnected. Luckily enough we weren't driving very fast otherwise it could have caused injury considering the tire is now almost at a 90 degree angle and we can't move the car. I understand the statute of limitations is 8 years after the original purchase date, i would like to know if i can get a manufacturer repair done free of charge, and would rather have it done at a dealer knowing they would have the correct parts. Normally my 1 year old is in the car, luckily he wasn't last night, but would like to know if i am entitled to repairs.
The lower control arm and ball joint failed per f 23 recall of jeep chrysler and damaged the tire and rim which had to be replaced. We filed a claim with chrysler customer assistance on aug 20, 2014 and they were processing it and told us they would reimburse the $1146.83 not later than oct 20, 2014. We had not heard anything from ccassistance so we telephoned today. Brad, the agent, could not find any record and also said that the recall was completed and that there would not be any reimbursement to us for the repairs we had to make. That is not in accord with the recall and furthermore, the lower control arm and ball joints failed again on august 18, 2014 and the safford chrysler jeep dodge of springfield virginia replaced the control arms and ball joints on both the left and right side under a f23 recall warranty at no charge to us. We request that nhtsa contact chrysler and require them to reimburse us for the $1146.83 which we paid out of pocket.
The lower ball joint broke causing the frame and wheel to separate. The frame fell onto the tire. The rim was sliced completely in half.and the brand new tire was busted. It caused us to loose control of the vehicle. The vehicle feared of the road and landed ina ditch. We had to have a tow truck pick up the vehicle. It cost us 300 dollars to have the vehicle brought home. After getting home we found out the piece that broke, the lower ball joint, was part of the jeep recall in 2006. I called chrysler and they did admit that part was a recall fix in 2006. We are now waiting on chrysler to call us back to let us know what we are suppose to do next. We are without a vehicle.
I have purchased 2 sets of tires.the first set was at about 65,000 when i noticed that the front tires were being worn on the inside.i've rotated my tires when required.the dealer suggested i get a front end alignment.i did that and had another set of tires put on the front end and those on the front rotated to the rear.now, the new tires are showing wear on the inner part of the tires just like the others.the tire dealer suggested it may be the suspension.i notice there was a recall on 2006 jeeps for suspension.why wasn't mine included?

I bought a2006 jeep liberty in august of 2014,been having problems with the tires ,which keep seeping air and i have to put air in it every other day. When i press on the foot pedal the car jerks and it speeds up by itself. Couldn't get my key out after it was put in park. Press on brakes and still couldn't get them out. The shift lever moves without pressing on the button that supposed to lock it in place. The date that i put in is for the shift lever which still isn't fixed yet .the other things been going on since i bought the car .
The ball joint on the front left side broke, causing multiple damage.it occurred again february 2011 on the left side.luckily, we were not driving at the time it occurred.most recently, the front ball joint broke again causing $900 in damages.the chrysler group has refused to take ownership of the recurring default.
I was driving home christmas morning and a few miles before i got home the lower and higher ball joints separated from each other.i had no control of the vehicle, thankfully there was no one else on the road with me. I was headed straight on road when incident happened. Vehicle bounced many times before coming to a stop off the road. I was informed later after incident that this vehicle had a recall for what i had just described above. Vehicle was bought used from dealership and have no record or info if this recall being fixed.
The driver side ball joint has broken 7 times in 1 year and has been replaced. Using 4 different mechanics assuming it was the mechanic. This has happened each time while driving. The last mechanic put an additional nut and has assumed to work. He also indicated that he has repaired other jeep liberty's with same problem in one case he welded it on, i have seen 3 others in my small town that you can see they also have a driver fender that is damaged as mine is when the ball joint breaks and tires pushes wheel fender off. This is not an isolated problem and can not believe this issue has not been addressed in a recall,it asks for a date, well the first time was spring of 2017 since then it has happened 6 additonal times
Driving vehicle and vehicle started making popping noises right rear, and vehicle felt like the rear end was fishtailing why front was still going straight.took to certified dealer and they reported unsafe vehicle report filed due to frame rotted through on right rear where lower control arm attaches to the frame.this is a recall item for 2006 jeep liberty in may 2018 (u38).outreached to mopar and as told no recall on vin for this yet if authorized dealer stated it is what recall is they would file claim.when told it is, was documented on invoice, mopar stated they never said that, was nothing could do, would not file claim against u38 recall, and because unable to fix and old vehicle nothing would be done to correct this.
The lower and upper ball joints are deteriorating and cause inner wear on both front tires.the car had an alignment and new tires less than one year old.the accelerated inner wear and cupping resulted in a blowout.this is a safety issue. The jeep liberty has serious suspension problems. When i spoke to the jeep/chrysler cooperation, they were unwilling to assist in fixing the problem. When completing research, this seems to be a common problem with 2006 jeep liberties. Jeep fails to recognize that the vin model of jeep has a defect in lower and upper balls joints for my model. I am very disappointed in the jeep company for the lack of attention and assistance for such a major safety issue.
I pulled out of my drive way and the and my car would not move. My ball joint broke off and my tire fell off my car. My mechanic told me the ball joint had rusted which caused it to break. He inspected the other front wheel and said it is in the same condition and is ready to break. I talked to chrysler and they said they had a recall on this problem which was called a f-23 but my car was 23 days outside of this recall date and they would not help me. I life in florida, so why are these ball joints rusting away. This could have happened on a highway instead of my driveway. Please look into this for the safety of other jeep owners.[xxx]. I will be getting the bad parts from my mechanic when the repairs are completed.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
As i had just exited the florida's turnpike north bound at kendall drive in miami and attempted to enter the town and country mall at about 20 mph, the front passenger side ball joint of my 2006 crd 4x4 jeep liberty came apart causing the vehicle to lock the front wheel as the steering arm with part of the ball joint enter and landed inside the rim and the tire, perforating it and preventing the tire from turning causing the jeep to almostbuck like a horse sending us head first towards the windshield. Thankfully, it did not happen 45 seconds earlier when my family and i were on the express way driving 65 mph...it would have been catastrophic! this equipment/part failure is known as recall f-23 by chrysler/jeep and they are well aware of it!! i was never aware of such recall !! chrysler/jeep, after one month at their dealer continue to refuse to fix the collateral damage on the vehicle (rim, etc) created by their defective part!! using as an excuse that the factory warranty is over when it has nothing to do with that. Chrysler sent an "independent" inspector to view the vehicle. This "independent" inspector's bill is paid by chrysler. This equipment failure is extremely dangerous!! and could be fatal!!! please help!! at this time i only want my jeep fixed properly, and thatchryslerhonors the traditional jeep quality and commitment to their customers!! a letter has been sent to chrysler claims after multiple attempts to solve this problem in person and via telephone. No results!! updated 06/04/14
