Samantha of Ossining, NY November 8, 2009 I have a 2006 Jeep Liberty that I purchased used in February of 2008. For the most part, I was happy with the vehicle to begin with. Then My left rear window suddenly would not go up or down anymore. I took it to the dealership and was told that it was the regulator that had broken and that it was not covered under any regulator. So 233.00 with the part and labor included, it was fixed. This was about a year ago. Last week the right rear window did the same thing. Since I did not have an extra 233 just lying around to fix it, I duck taped it so it would at least be closed until I could fix it. Imagine that, Duck tape on a 3 year old vehicle! Then yesterday, as I am looking for a second job to help pay for my vehicle expenses (I need 2 new tires as well), the right driver's side window does the same thing! Only this time, I can't duck tape it because it is too heavy to stay up. So, I drive to the dealership, which was closing in 10 minutes. The guy looks at it and trys to get it to stay up at least until monday. I ask about the price, just to see if it had changed at all since the last time I had this done. Turns out, the Jeep people decided that it was necessary to upgrade the regulator so it will not fit my current window. So now, I have to replace the regulator and the window! How much with that be? 350 for parts and then another 200 for labor and taxes! 550 just for the one window! What the real kicker in all of this is, is the fact that the Jeep dealerships all say that this is a common problem in the Libertys. However, there has been no recall or announcement of the defect by jeep. So I'm supposed to just deal with every regulator breaking as it happens because Jeep made regulators that don't stand up to every day use? Needless to say, in these tough economic times this is going to severly impact me. I'm so sorry that I purchased this vehicle. For an extra 2000, I should have stuck with my long-time favorite, the Toyota. I have had 3 toyotas before this Jeep and I have never had such problems. Vickie of Hampton, IA November 4, 2009 I own a 2008 Jeep Wrangler that we bought new.At around 23,000-24,000 miles it started shaking so bad I thought it was falling apart.this happened every time I would drive over some railroad tracks or sometimes cracks in the road.My husband contacted the dealer we bought it from.They stated that they had no idea what was wrong with it.My husband had them replace the steering box,this did not help.My husband put on heavy duty shocks,this still did not help.I contacted Chrysler.The customer service person stated that she turned it over to a manager and I would be contacted within 1 day.A week later I called back.Brian had logged that he had tried to contact me three times.Brian did not try to contact me.The one number that I gave him was my cellphone that I can always answer.I left Brian a voicemail and again gave him my phone numbers.Two days later I call back again.The customerservice person stated he would call me back yet today.Needless to say I have not heard from him.After contacting some Jeep owners I found out my Jeep has what is called "Death Wobble."I guess this is common in alot of Jeeps.They stated there is noone thing that can be done.Several different things are usually tried.If it is such a known problem shouldn't the dealers make consumers aware of what could possibly happen? Nobody seems to want to help me!I'm terrified to drive it.I'm constantly thinking I'm going to go in the ditch or other lane of traffic. Brett of Willard, MO November 4, 2009 I purchased a 2006 Jeep Liberty and we've had problems with the window regulators on all of the windows. I noticed other Jeep Liberty owners on this forum have had the same problem. My Jeep is in the shop this morning and they told me the same thing that the regulator has been upgraded and you need a new window to get the upgraded regulator. Chrysler hasn't heard the last from me on this. It's going to cost more than 300 to repair. There should have been a recall on this. Chrysler I hope you enjoyed your government bailout, but I will no longer buy another one of your products! teresa of Hesperia, CA November 4, 2009 My 2005 jeep grand cherokee has been in the shop since last december. It has huge electrical problems and when they say it is finally fixed and I pick it up, the check engine light and the problem is recurring before I get home. The dealer is out of idea's. Chrysler/Jeep is unwilling to help. I have had to rent or borrow a car on a regular basis since Dec 08. Nicole of New Fairfield, CT November 4, 2009 We are leasing an 07 Jeep Commander which has unexpected stalling. Stalls occur at various speeds without any indicator light appearing while driving at any speed i.e. highway or urban driving. This has occurred +/- 5 times over the last year. Jeep has been to dealership shop where several, yet unsure, reasons have been cited including but not limited to: shift module component, necessary upgrade to shift module software, low transmission fluid level. Suspect repairs were made, however, stalling occurred once again. This vehicle has been in and out of the dealership shop on many occasions. The monetary loss is irrelevant as the safety of my family does not have a price tag. Although we have not suffered physical damage, if this problem is not remedied, we are fearful the neglect on Chrysler's part will result in extreme physical damage to jeep commander owners and their fellow drivers. Edwina of Banning, CA October 29, 2009 After owning my 2007 Jeep Liberty for 2+ years, two window regulators, front passenger and rear drivers side, have broke allowing the windows to suddendly drop. Ben of East Amherst, NY October 23, 2009 Just want to inform others to stay away from 2009 Jeep Liberty. I have been back to the dealer about a high speed shimmy three times. Have been told that they all have a slight shimmy at high speeds. In other words live with it. One tech explained that its probably coming from the torque converter. I think this a common problem with other Jeep vehicles. Steve of Brandon, FL October 17, 2009 I have replaced the window regluator on my 2006 jeep liberty 4 times already and went in for 5th time 10/17. The dealer refused to honor the ext warranty and replace it again unless I buy a new window for the door, meaning i will new to buy 4 windows as each regulator fails again Trish of NLV, NV October 15, 2009 Today (10/15/09) will be the 9th time that I have had the regulator replaced in my 2006 Jeep Liberty. A car that I purchased used (9,000 miles @ 1 yr). So, 2.5 years later & out of warranty, I am now having to "negotiate" a lower service price with a Chrysler spokesperson. She informed me today that I will pay for a diagnostic test & small co-pay. Hello - the problem is the regulator - what diagnosis? Not to mention that I'm unemployed & have to drive 45 minutes to get this fixed. This is a defective part!!! I hope this goes to class action. Please help!!! Daniel of Columbus, GA October 14, 2009 I purchased a 2009 Jeep Patriot and have owned it for 2 months and have water pouring in like a small river from the overhead dome light. Went to a Jeep forum and was dumb founded on how many people have had the same problem and how many times that they have had to go to dealers to have the problem keep coming back. Disappointed.
