2008 Jeep Liberty

THIS IS OUR SECOND PROBLEM SINCE 2010 WHEN WE PURCHASED VEHICLE THAT THE SLIDER SUNROOF HAS COME OFF IT'S TRACKS. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS ABOUT A MONTH AFTER WE PURCHASED IT AND COST 1400.00 TO FIX NOW FOR NO REASON IT JUST POPPED OFF AND BOWS AND TRACK BROKE. RAINED IN HER CAR AND SHORTED OUT ELECTRICAL. THIS IS A PIECE OF CRAP AND WHEN I LOOK AT ALL THE COMPLAINTS IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING THEY ARE LIABLE FOR FIXING BECAUSE NOW ITS GOING TO COST 3500 AND JEEP DEALERS ARE TELLING US THEY DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH IT BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FROM THE BEGINNING. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS THAT JEEP PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR FAULTY PRODUCTS AND THE NHTSA IS NOT MAKING THEM. THEY HAVE QUIT MAKING THIS FOR A REASON. BECAUSE IT WAS FAULTY AND NOT SOMETHING THAT WOULD WORK. NOW VEHICLE OWNERS ARE STUCK WITH NO OPTIONS. PLEASE CONSIDER HELPING US! MY DAUGHTER IS IN NURSING SCHOOL AND I'M A SINGLE MOTHER. WHAT ARE OUR OPTIONS. JEEP DEALERSHIPS DON'T WANT THESE CARS BACK!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE SKY SLIDER SUNROOF SLID OFF THE TRACK AND INDEPENDENTLY OPENED HALFWAY. THE SKY SLIDER SUNROOF ALSO FAILED TO FUNCTION WHEN ACTIVATED. IN ADDITION, THE WINDOW CONTROLS ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE SKY SLIDER SUNROOF NEEDED TO BE PUT BACK ON TRACK. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

THERE WAS A NOISE, LIKE GRINDING WHEN I WENT TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVE WAY, FROM THE REAR OF THE JEEP AND WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP THE TECH FOUND THE REAR FLOOR HEAT SHIELD HAD COME LOSSE AND WAS RUBBING ON THE DRIVESHAFT. THE DEALERSHIP CHARGED ME $474.20 TO FIX IT ON 3/9/2015. I JUST FOUND OUT TODAY, 11/2/2015, THERE WAS A RECALL ON OTHER 2008 JEEP LIBERTYS (MY VIN NUMBER WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL) BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE THE ISSUE SHOULD HAVE BEEN! WHY WASN'T MY JEEP PART OF THE RECALL? ARE THERE OTHER OWNERS LIKE ME, WHO HAD THE SAME ISSUE BUT WEREN'T CONSIDERED PART OF THE RECALL? I THINK WE SHOULD BE! PLEASE ADVISE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, SMOKE WAS PRESENT COMING FROM THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE REAR PASSENGER WHEEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE CALIPER SEIZED. THE CALIPER WAS REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE LATER EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE INVOLVING THE BRAKE CALIPERS ON BOTH THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

MY HEAT SHIELD CAME LOOSE AND DETACHED AT 110000 MILES WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS OBVIOUSLY RESTING ON MOVING PARTS UNDER MY VEHICLE. IT MADE A KLATTERING RATTLE AS THE VEHICLE SLOWED TO A STOP WHERE I COULD CHECK OUT THE PROBLEM. THE HEAT SHIELD READILY CAME OUT WHEN THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE WAS REMOVED TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO THE PART ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

I BOUGHT THE JEEP MARCH OF 2014. UPON PURCHASE THERE SEEMED TO BE AN ODD NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT END. I WAS ASSURED THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY OVERSIZED TIRES. THE TIRES WERE DIFFERENT FROM THE STANDARD FACTORY BUT NOTHING THAT SHOULD CAUSE THAT NOISE WHILE DRIVING. I ASKED IF I COULD HAVE MY MECHANIC LOOK AT AND CALL THEM FOR THE REPAIR. THEY AGREED. I CALLED A FEW DAYS LATER AFTER FINDING THAT THE FRONT END HAD SOME ISSUES AS WELL AS THE HORN AND OTHER ELECTRICAL THINGS DIDN'T WORK. I WAS CONCERNED BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY VIOLATION. THEY FIXED IT ALL AT NO COST TO ME. ONE YEAR LATER THE HORN AND BUTTONS STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. I WENT IN AND TOLD THEM WHAT WAS GOING ON AND ASKED FOR THE WRITE UP FROM LAST TIME. THE WRITE UP STATED THAT THEY REPAIRED THE TIPM MODULE WELL ENOUGH TO GET IT TO FUNCTION BUT IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS NEVER TOLD THIS. I ASKED THEM WHAT COULD BE DONE SINCE THEY DIDN'T REALLY FIX IT THE FIRST TIME. WE CAME TO THE AGREEMENT THAT I WOULD PAY FOR LABOR AND THEY WOULD PAY FOR THE PART. SEPTEMBER 2015, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY I WENT TO HONK MY HORN ONLY TO FIND IT WASN'T WORKING. IT WORKED JUST A FEW HOURS PRIOR. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND EXPLAINED WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE TOLD ME THAT IT SOUNDED LIKE THE TIPM MODULE AGAIN, AND THAT THEY WOULD WARRANTY THE PART AND FIX IT. I TOOK IT IN AND WAS THEN TOLD THAT THEY WOULD NEED TO DIAGNOSE AND MAKE SURE THAT IT WAS THE TIPM MODULE. I WOULD NEED TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND THEN PAY FOR THE FIX IF IT WASN'T THAT PART. IT ENDED UP NOT BEING THE TIPM MODULE AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS GOING TO BE A MINIMUM OF 300 DOLLARS IN LABOR, PLUS THE 100 DIAGNOSTIC FEE FOR TODAY, AND WHATEVER PART NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I TOLD THEM THAT I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TIPM MODULE AND THAT I WASN'T ABLE TO PAY THAT MUCH AND FELT COMPLETELY RIPPED OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER THE CONTACT DISCONNECTED AND RECONNECTED THE BATTERY CABLE. ON ONE OTHER OCCASION, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS INDEPENDENTLY POWERED OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED AGAIN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE FOBIK AND THE HORN CONSISTENTLY SOUNDED AND THE HEADLIGHTS FLASHED. THE CONTACT DETACHED AND REATTACHED THE BATTERY CABLE AND THE LIGHTS POWERED OFF AND THE HORN NO LONGER SOUNDED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

WHILE PULLING INTO PARKING SPACE, HORN SUDDENLY BLOWS, WIPERS AND WASHERS COME ON, LIGHTS COME ONCAR BUCKS. BROUGHT TO DEALER KEPT FOR 3 DAYS, NO ANSWER. 3 DAYS LATER CAR PARKED HORN BLOWS WIPERS ON, DOORS LOCK. 2 DAYS AFTER CAR PARKED SAME THING. DEALER CAN FIND NO CODES. REPEAT OF SAME INCIDENTS FROM 8/20/14, SAME RESPONSE FROM DEALER.
