    2nd time in 10 months that the drivers side window regulator malfunctioned. The window just drops without warning. The first repair was covered under warranty. The second repair is not. They "reduced the cost" from $450.00 to $152.00 after acknowledging that the part is defective.

    Since purchasing my 2006 Jeep Commander from this dealership NEW two years ago, I have had countless issues with random stalling while the vehicle is in operation. I have had the vehicle into the service department for days on end, many times only to be told there is nothing wrong. I was nearly killed when the vehicle stalled while travelling out of state with my children on a highway in central Oklahoma,during a rainstorm and going about 70+ mph. I was stranded out of town. When I finally made it home days later. The dealership laughed it off and said I must be hitting the ignition with my knee.Most recently, they made me feel like I was just being a hysterical female when I said I did not feel safe in the vehicle and would not drive the car on the highway to bring it in during the last reported incident. I then tried to contact Chrysler about the Lemon Law and they only responded with a form letter- saying they were sorry to hear of my inconvenience,blah, blah.....! Today,a friend sent a link to your story about this safety recall by Chrysler. I have been ignored for 2 years and have never been notified of this....Considering, I refuse to drive on a highway with my children in the vehicle- and have had to live this way AND until some day when I am not upside down in my loan to trade it in (if that is even possible with its issues)I am incredibly unhappy that they have now taken a select few vehicles and issued a recall. What about the rest of us 2006 Commander owners who have been fighting this losing battle - and risking our safety for over 2 years now!Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.

    I purchased a 2004 Jeep Liberty Limited. I drove the car for three weeks with no problems. One day as I pulled into the driveway of my aunt's home the jeep suddenly accelerated and ran into her vehicle. Her vehicle then ran into one the bedrooms of the home knocking a sleeping family member out of the bed. I sent it to be inspected at a local Jeep dealership/body shop and they say that "there is nothing wrong with the Liberty." I find that hard to believe after reading complaint after complaint regarding Jeeps and sudden acceleration. My aunt's car was totaled and she has major damage to her home. I and my family member were injured in the accident

    I purchased a 2008 Jeep Patriot (brand new). I've only had the vehicle three weeks. The head liner in the vehicle is loose and slaps/vibrates violently against the roof of the car when a window is down. It first started with all the windows up except one rear window. It sounds like a helicopter is flying inside the vehicle. After a week of driving since I first encountered the problem, it has gotten worse. It now does it with any window down to varying degrees, depending on the window and how far down it is placed.

    The noise and vibration can be stopped by holding upward pressure on the head liner. I have gone back and forth between the dealer and Chrysler's customer service for over a week now. I was told that they all do it and that it is a design feature, it's normal. I have been back to the dealer three times and spent countless hours on the phone trying to resolve this. I have been told that Chrysler will not fix it and that I can pay to have it fixed if I want to (brand new car, lifetime warranty).

    I have a 2006 jeep liberty, this vehicle is nothing but junk! Looks wise it is great! Love the jeep, been a faithful customer, but bought this one new, expecting no problems and that is all i have had! The vehicle DIES at various speeds, doesn't seem to be triggered by any one thing, dealer has had in it several times, tells me nothing is wrong, have small children, this vehicle is not safe. Dies at all speeds, times and road conditions. I have called Chrysler Customer Service and they tell me to call the attorney generals office, who tells me to file a lemon law claim, which Chrysler won't recognize! They won't talk to you on the phone to resolve the claim, they simply hang up filed a claim with national transportation safety board the claim # is 10226959. WE need to get the word out so jeep will solve this problem before some is seriously injured or killed!

    I have a 1997 Jeep Laredo that I purchased over 2 years ago from a used car dealer. The stalling problem started around January 2008. At first it just stalls when on idle or when turning. Now it is stalling while driving on the freeway/highway. I was going 60mph on the highway and it just died. We have changed the crack sensor, the oil, coil, cap and rotor, transmission fuild. Oxygen sensor was changed a little over a year ago. I don't know what else to do. I have brought it to the mechanic 2x and he can't find the problem. No warning code shows on the dash. I searched the web and discovered I'm not alone. It is now April 2008 and I'm scared to drive my car. What can we Jeep owners with the same problem do? There must be something we can do to get Chrysler to fix this problem. There is a recall but it doesn't cover the year of my car.

All of these things are very dangerous to me.It is my only vehicle to drive so I use it. I have read about other jeeps stalling. This needs to be addressed.

    I purchased my 03' Jeep from a dealer in 06'. I bought it at what i thought was a very fair price(now i know why). Almost immediately, i had problems with the fan relay switch.Which by the way is under the passenger side headlamp, which is about 2 inches from the fender side of the of the headlamp cavity in the middle. This is important information because the part itself costs about $35.00 and the dealer will tell you they need to take the whole front end of the car apart.They do not need to rip the car apart.They fix the problem in 10 to 15 minutes by drilling into the headlamp assembly like I had already mentioned before. Then they charge you BIG money in labor to have your Jeep sit in the back of the lot all day.DO NOT FALL PREY TO THAT SCAM. My buddy who is a mechanic told me that scam when I had him change my relay. The alternator stopped working and my battery died about two weeks later and that was even more money about $300.00 down the drain.The tires need to be filled back up every 2 to 3 days because the cheap aluminum oxidizes and creates a hole between the tire bead and the rim for all the air to escape(that is annoying) about 4 months later the entire cooling system failed and litteraly exploded in my car.I ended up replacing the radiator,the dumb fan relay AGAIN,heater core,and the thermostat to the tune of $2000.00.I replaced the radiator on warranty from the initial explosion twice and to this day,a solid year later the thing still leaks.the mechanic will warranty the radiator but wants to charge me for the labor. I believe they get paid by the company to do warranty work so i wont let them touch it again for that reason(I think the mechanic is lying to me about the supposed charge) and because he has done the radiator and all its components atleast 2 times already with NO positive results. They also put in 2 thermostats and I can still hear fluids running through the heater core and that can't be good. To this very day the trucks heater blows cold air to luke warm air in the winter rendering the heater utterly useless.In the past couple months it has developed a problem with the steering(as if there is anything else that could go wrong). The vehicle no longer turns left easily. My friend the mechanic told me it's the steering shaft.We changed it and the problem was still there. That was $250.00 down the drain. Then a jeep mechanic told MY mechanic, it is the ball joints. We changed them and the problem is still better than ever.It was a good thing i changed them because They were falling apart in the sockets.Nevertheless, that was another $185.00 down the drain. Now we think we have found the real culprate. We believe it is the steering gear box.The gear box is expensive about 350.00 plus labor to install.I have also replaced a front left and rear left brake calipers because the had seazed at different times but whats another 350.00 dollars right!!!! I have huge cracks down to the foam in my leather seats,adding insult to injury I want the folks and workers at Chrysler/Jeep to know that I owned a full size Mitsubishi Montero sport for YEARS and almost 300,000 miles and I replaced the brakes,tires and oil as i should and replaced the alternator at about 250,000 miles. I will NEVER purchase another cheap jeep EVER again or an American car in general.I will be going back to foreighn cars. What a collosal disappointment this has been oh by the way MUCHO expensive

    I bought a 2003 Jeep Liberty in March of 2003. Since that time, I have had it in to the local dealership to have the back window regulators replaced six times. The last two times have been after the warranty expired and the dealership has given me a hard time about replacing them for free. There is an obvious problem with them as my back windows are never rolled down, but the window just falls into the door. I have looked on the internet and discovered that other Jeep owners have the same problem. I have called Chrysler and they say there is nothing they can do for me until it happens again and then they might recommend a partial adjustment to help me pay for the repairs. I requested something in writing stating that Chrysler would pay to have the window regulators replaced for the life of the vehicle and they said they would never do that. Chrysler should have to fix the defective part and have a recall on all models affected or a class action lawsuit should be filed on behalf of all vehicle owners with the defective window regulators.

    I bought a 2002 Jeep from this dealership on April 9,2008 after examining the vehicle and being given the oral assurance that the car had been thoroughly checked out by their mechanics and there were absolutely no problems with it. The car looked very clean and drove well. I noticed a sound in the engine which I asked to have them re-examine. The GM agreed to keep the car overnight and have repaired any problem they found. Bob reported that the problem had been something to do with an oil sleeve and that they had replaced it. We picked the car up the next day (the 10th) and drove it home. Later that day I noticed a HUGE oil spot on my driveway. I reported this immediately to the dealer and was told to bring the car in on Tuesday (the 15th). Upon doing so we were told they could do NOTHING to remedy the problem. They refuse to do ANYTHING to make the vehicle driveable. In short, I am now stuck with a repair bill for $1100 for a new radiator( which had not been disclosed as being cracked) and a rear oil seal replacement.

    After having this vehicle for less than a month the check engine light comes on. I took it to Autozone for a diagnosis. They told me it was a computer memory checksum error and had little info on the particulars. I then took the vehicle to the dealer. He looks at it and then says he is going to have to keep it until the next day. I call the next day and am told that it needed a new ECM, they were on National Backorder and it would be at least a month before they would have one and then there were no guarantees on that. Amazingly enough I could find them on the internet for 115 bucks used and 320 new. I told him to put it back in and call me when he got the part (the vehicle still drove fine). I was told he could not allow the vehicle to be driven as it might be polluting!! Obviously this guy just did not want me getting service elsewhere. So it indeed took a month to get the ECM. Why are companies allowed to sell vehicles that they cannot stock parts for?? I thought there were consumer laws about this. The next issue arose when we left a restaurant before going to a wake. Had the whole family with, got in and the key would not turn. The dealer is closed (I bought the worthless service contract) so I call a locksmith. He tells me that the lock cylinders are junk, have been since 1996? or so and he services 2 - 3 per week in the Fort Wayne area. He replaced mine with an improved after-market version but he says Jeep still used the defective ones to this day. To make matters worse the service contract people refused to pay the 160 bucks because they said I should have called them and they would have sent a tow truck to take it to the dealer for repair in the morning. I told them that we would have been stranded 50 miles from home. He implied that was not their problem. I guess the biggest beef I have is the fact that they MUST know there are both design and material planning deficits and they refuse to do anything about it. As a matter of fact, they just keep right on using the junk parts.

    My wife bought a 2003 Jeep Liberty Sport in 2002 from the dealer, had routine maintenance and even had the recall (see below) performed. Even though I believe it has to be performed again, the passenger front wheel sounds HORRIBLE, constantly vibrating, seems like the wheel will just fall off.. I dont think the ball joint issue is resolved efficiently. Once she reached 75,000+ miles the real problems began. The vehicle light has come on consistently for the past several months. Brought it to a mechanic, said it was misfiring and 'fixed it, - however light came on again, so brought it to the dealer. They claimed he used the wrong plugs and charged her $300+ for the same thing he did and said there was a 'carbon build-up' on the valves and would be an additional $1000 approx (didnt bother with that). Left with the light off, a week later it came on again. A separate mechanic looked at it and fixed the light said it was misfiring and was then running fine. UNTIL a few weeks ago, it started a light tapping near the valves/intake and we havent driven it for fear it was going to stall (book says the trans light was flashing which means it will lose power). Yesterday it wouldnt start AT ALL; it took several tries and eventually started slooowly. I ran it for a few minutes and performed an oil change, tried 5w-30 the preferred winter weight and didnt change, still tapping. This vehicle should be recalled. WILL NEVER BUY A JEEP AGAIN. I am going to try some additives and simple valve fixers, hoping to get it up to par to sell privately or trade for a new car. This is a similar complaint I came across on a jeep forum: The first trip showed a misfire on Cylinder 3, all the plugs were replaced. The second trip was Oxygen sensor, it was replaced. Third trip, they claimed carbon build up, fourth trip was another misfire, 5th was Air Box. We have reset it twice this weekend, going back on Monday. **Recall ID# 06V288000 - SUSPENSION, FRONT : CONTROL ARM : LOWER BALL JOINT

Had it towed to Adams Jeep for service,which is where it was purchased,was called by service dept. to let me know it was a definite engine problem & I would have to pay 4 hours of labor for them to look more in depth to what the exact engine problem was. said o.k.,at this point I could not drive it,it was dead!Service called next day & said a new engine was needed,I was given a quote of 4,900.00,I asked the mechanic if that included everything tax,labor,all parts-he said that would be the final amount.

    Okayed repair & engine was ordered.Asked if it was common for engines to be replaced in a vehicle with under 100,000 miles on it-Mechanic told me no, more like a vehicle with 250,000 or more miles.Mech. called to say engine was going to take a little extra time getting it in,& was offered a loaner car at there expense(which we found out later,is just a car they keep sitting around for this kind of use.) called week later and was told jeep was ready,when I re-verified the total I was told 6,100.00. Service manager said that the mechanic that was working on the car wrote on the ticket that he had called us to let us know the engine would cost a little more.I NEVER recieved a call. When I asked to speak to the mech.,I was told he was off. After argueing back in forth for quite awhile,we agreed to 4,900.00 and tax.After hearing a sob story from the service manager about the loss he was taking by settling on the price,I believe its me who suffered the bigger loss(5,100.00)I called again to speak to the mech. the next day and was told he was still off. It was not until I picked up the car,that I had found out (by the cashier lady) that the mechanic was no longer with them.

    Chrysler would not help in any way,because I did not buy the extened warranty.I explained I would have if I was told that their vehicles do not go over 100,000 miles without needing an engine.they said we were way out of the 36,000 mile warranty,and they could do nothing.(vehicle is maintained and has 88,000 miles on it,mainly highway-due to my job-bought a jeep because they run forever! YEAH RIGHT!)Have owned nothing but daimler/chrysler vehichles-but through this experiene,all the lying and feeling of being taken advantage of,I am done with, them if they go out of business from too many lawsuits they deserve it with the way they treat their customers!I would have loved to pursue this legally-but was already at a $5,100.00 loss!

    I purchased my 2006 Jeep Liberty, May 2006, it has approximately 21,000 miles and is still under the original manufacturers warranty. My Jeep Liberty broke down, 1/6/08, it has been in the shop since 1/9/08. The dealership has been working to try to find the problem; at first they thought it was the harness belt, however,that did not resolve the issue. I received a call today, 1/23/08, there are severe technical issues with my vehicle. The dealership has the Chrysler Engineering Department involved. I had to rent a vehicle and pay for those expenses out of pocket. I had contacted Chrysler via email; reference number 17137777 EMAIL CASE NUMBER: 1926156 I received a response back from Karrie, Customer Service Representative Chrysler Customer Assistance Center, the following was her response: Thank you for contacting the Chrysler Customer Assistance Center regarding the current issue with your 2006 Jeep Liberty. I have called Swope Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep and spoke with Phil the service manager. I was advised that they have found a failure code and are currently trying to work with their technical team to resolve the issue. We suggest you continue to work with the dealership in regards to this issue. Thanks again for your email. Sincerely. I am disappointed as well as frustrated at the lack of concern and unwillingness to accept any responsibility in reference to the defect of manufacturing by Chrysler Corporation.

    I am still without a car, two weeks later and the dealership is unsure if they will be able to resolve this technical issue with Chrysler. The dealership is losing money, they have 2 mechanics assigned to this job, which would usually require one. At this point, I would like to receive the amount my vehicle is worth according to the blue book and look at purchasing another vehicle, which would not be a Chrysler product. I have the extended warranty on this vehicle as well, however, that does me no good if the vehicle is inoperable.

I followed the lemon law to a T and spoke with many mechanics. The dealership has my car for about a week every third month and keeps telling me that they can not duplicate the leak therefore do not believe it is a lemon. I over the last year and a half have had the vehicle repaired over 7 times and that is not including 2 FINAL REPAIR attempts by the dealer. I am in no financial position to hire a lawyer and feel as if the dealer should own up to this car as it's their product and do something to assist me as I have been nothing but patient with them and have followed all of their instructions.

    Purchased a new 06 jeep liberty, thinking this would be a reliable vehicle. What a joke!!! In the shop 7-8 times already. 2x for engine light on,had to tear the engine down both times, supposedly same thing each time only on different side each time. Ball joints replaced 1x, heater malfunction 3x, rotor malfunction 1x, cv boot replaced ( so far 1x ). Then just yesterday I had a front end collision with another vehicle. This one a chevy blazer, with damage to the doors.My Whole front end destroyed, only front view was radiator, 2 headlights,and a severely damaged hood. Bumper was completely destroyed and still no air bag deployment. I can't wait to get rid of this disaster on wheels. I tell everyone I meet about this vehicle and warn them about my experiences.

    Comments: I am frustrated and disappointed about my 2004 Jeep Liberty and the Maintenance Services (and recall repairs) performed/not performed on that Jeep. I bought the Jeep Liberty when it was brand new on my 48th birthday because I heard they (Jeeps) were dependable, durable, and fun to drive--I am disappointed because my jeep has not performed as promised. I am frustrated because there are more than eight recalls on Jeep Liberties including ball joint, exterior lights, power steering, door latch, etc.--I have experienced all those problems with my Jeep plus others. I purchased my Jeep from John Elway Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep in Englewood, Colorado--now known as GO Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge. I have taken my Jeep to the same dealership where I purchased it because they offered deals on service work. However, there is a pattern at the dealership of not having the parts to make the recall repairs most of the time when I take my Jeep in for oil changes, lube, filter replacement, etc. On three or more occasions, the dealership service department insisted that it did not have the parts to make repairs (while my car was under warranty). However, when the service department finally received the parts needed to make the repairs, I was told that I would have to pay for those parts and their installation because my car warranty had expired (my car warranty probably expired in September or October, 2007). Not only did the dealership charge/attempt to charge me for some of the warranty/recall repairs, it failed to perform the maintenance work on my last scheduled visit for the oil change, etc.. that I paid for. When I took my Jeep Liberty back to the dealership service department to get the work completed that I paid for, I also noticed that an exterior light was not functioning--a recall item. The service department pretended to be remorseful about not doing the automotive work that I had previously paid for, and promised to complete it and replace the exterior light for free--I had to pay for the bulb. However, when I picked up my Jeep, I was told by the service department that it could not repair the light because the housing that held the bulb in place had become so hot that it melted the bracket that held it in place. To me, the bracket looked as though it had been chipped on the inside. The service department told me that it would cost me about $300.00 to replace and install a new exterior lens/light. The outside of the lens/exterior light/housing is not cracked but looks new. While discussing the recall on the exterior light with the service department, I was told once again, that my Jeep was out of warranty to do the work. It is bad enought that the blue book value suggests that my 2004 Jeep liberty is worth under $7,000 (It was listed at $18,000.00+ when I purchased it in 2004), now it has electrical problems, exterior light problems, power steering problems, and my clutch seems to be malfunctioning.

    Safety Recall F25 - Jeep Grand Cheroke *Fan blades of the electric radiator fan may fracture & separate. We took our Jeep into an independent and had the motor w/attached fan blades replaced before the recall. The mechanic told us that the fan blades & motor were bad & the blades could break. When the recall came out, we sent a copy of our original repair to Daimler Chrysler for reimbursement. First, they told us to take to a regular Chrysler Dealership and have them check it out to make sure the work was done correctly, We did that and all was fine (as so noted on my receipt from the dealership). Next they told us that they would not reimburse the money because the blades had not cracked, separated or broke prior to having it repaired. We asked them how many customers took their vehicles in for the recall repair & didn't have broken blades. They didn't want to hear that. They refuse to let me speak to a manager and say we're sorry but there is nothing we can do, unless the blades cracked or broke prior to repair (Go figure--that is why they did the recall -- to fix the problem before they break and cause more damage!!!!!)

    Several Incidents: 1) I took my Jeep in for a hard start situation and some other minor repairs. They told me I needed a new fuel pump for the hard start. They had the car for 3 days. I picked up the vehicle, took it home and the car still had a very hard start. Took it back and the problem ended up being a bad fuel injector, which they charged me additional for. Whole experience cost me $1800, and I got a new fuel pump I did not need. Now, I took the vehicle back to them, even though I guess I should have taken it somewhere else, and same situation. 2) I took the vehicle in on Monday 12/3 for the transmission geting stuck in third gear, causing a check engine light, and a very small leak. A couple of drops on transmission, but nothing on garage floor. They diagnosed it as having a leaking torque converter and bad pump. Quoted $2300 for overhaul of transmission. Got a quote from AAMCO for $1900. The dealer agreed to match the cost. Picked vehicle up yesterday evening 12/6. Cost $2242.17. Higher than estimate. Some additional work okayed, some misc expenses seem wrong. Anyhow, needed car, paid bill. Drove a few miles home and parked vehicle. While driving to work this morning car gets stuck in third gear and check engine light comes on. I am taking vehicle back this afternoon, they obviously misdiagnosed it again and now I am out $2242 for a transmission overhaul I never needed. 3)Bought a 2005 Pacifica from the same dealer. Car is using 2-3 quarts of oil between oil changes. Dealer lied to wife and said Chrysler design there engines to consume oil for some rediculous reason I can't recall.

    I just had to replace the motor in my 2002 Jeep Liberty. This car has been my favorite car ever up until this point. I lost oil pressure in the middle of nowhere, and finally got a tow back to my home town. I live in a very small town (pop. 3240 aprox.) and the mechanic we took it to said he has had to replace several Jeep Liberty motors as the oil pick up screen tends to clog. I felt totally to blame since I have not been the best about oil changes, until I spoke with my brother who lives in Medford, OR and is a wonderful mechanic. He is of the strong opinion that this is a manufacture problem and small pieces of gasket or something from manufacture fouled the screen. He tells me that during routine oil changes you would not remove the oil pan and clean that screen. Makes total sense to me. Therefore I feel that this should be reported as a Jeep problem.

My questions 1)Nobody from DiamlerChrysler contacted me re: this error. When I finally contacted them, I was told what more do you what, we fixed it didn't we? Doesn't DiamlerChrysler have the responsibility to make sure their cars are in safe, working conditions before they are sold? This was a major mistake on DiamlerChrysler's part.

    On three random occasions during the month of October, I experienced power loss while driving my 2006 Jeep Commander, 4x4 Hemi. The first time this occurred, I had taken a trip to the grocery store -- I turned the ignition to start the Jeep and it didn't kick over right away, all the warning lights lit up simultaneously, then randomly and at varying lengths of time went out. I thought oh, no my battery's going! but realized that some of the dash lights and the radio were turning on and off. So, I turned the ignition off and waited about 2 minutes, then I started the Jeep again. It started and everything seemed OK (except the airbag light remained on) so I decided to drive home.

    As I was pulling out of the parking lot onto the main road, the dashboard lit up again, flashing on and off as before, and then a clunk-jerk -- no power steering, no power brakes, lights still going crazy. Luckily I was going quite slow and there wasn't much traffic, so I was able to coast into a parking lot on the other side of the road and stop in a parking spot, where I turned off the ignition. This time, I waited 5 minutes, it started and I made it home without incident (airbag light still lingered for a while). While this experience was a bit unnerving, I'd hoped it was a computer hiccup that wouldn't occur again. Sadly, I was wrong, about two and a half weeks later, as I was leaving my house (so I was going slow) the dashboard started the same flashing routine as before. I shut the Jeep off immediately, waited about 2 minutes and re-started.

    No further problems but the airbag light lingered a few minutes as before. The third incident was the day I brought it in for service (October 29th). I was driving along the main road about 40 mhp on a straight smooth section when all the warning lights began flashing on/off (oh, no!). Only a third mile from my home, at the first opportunity I turned off the main road and kept driving slowly to my garage. I made it there without losing the steering/brakes, lights flashing the whole way. I no longer feel safe driving this vehicle. The whole idea of possibly losing my power steering/brakes while driving fast is very dangerous and puts my family and others on the road in harms way. The vehicle was purchased from Desert Jeep in Las Vegas. It has been there 3 times for service (list of inconveniences) and the service has been lousy at best.

    This being an important safety issue, I decided to take it to a family run dealership - Jim Marsh Jeep. The service staff were much more helpful and genuinely seem to care - nevertheless unable to resolve my problem. These incidents did not leave a code in the computer and they are unable to re-create the problem, so they don't know what to fix. They called the manufacturer, who took two days to return the call, only to suggest that I remove the other three keys from my keyring because their weight must be causing the highly-sensitive ignition tumbler to toggle to accessory mode. Uuuuugggghhhhhh. I am not comfortable with this explanation. I am still afraid to drive this vehicle. What should I do?

    I've owned my 2006 Jeep Commander since September of 2006. I've had nothing but issues with it. The first time I took it to the dealership was due to the ac/heat and fan unit was malfunctioning. Turn on the fan with ac on and hot air blew out. The same results with heat being on. The mechanic at the dealership had to replace the whole ac/heat/fan unit. Two months later it still has issues with turning the fan off with the ac on. Not long after that a much more serious issue arose. Sporadically when I let off the accelerator and tap the brakes to slow at a stoplight the Jeep looses all power and the steering wheel of course locks up. I have to slam on the brakes, shove the Jeep into park and then crank the jeep back up and put it back in drive in time to not get rear ended. The Jeep also turns off at stop signs, on inclines at low speeds and also when accelerating from any kind of stopped point. The Jeep is unsafe for my family to drive and I am afraid my family will eventually be hurt in this Jeep. I now have my Jeep in the shop going on day 2 and the mechanic at the dealer still can't find anything wrong. Computer board sends no errors during testing is all they say to me. The warranty runs out in 200 miles so after that I'll have to pay to have it looked at. I'd like to trade it in to save my family but that will be endangering another family.

    We bought our 07 Jeep Commander brand new March 2007. We have had it for about 6 months. In the short amount of time that we have owned this vehicle it has been in the service department to be fixed for 5 things.

    The first time the jeep had about 2800 miles on it and the home link system and compass stopped working. They had to replace what they called the computer module. Then just 4 days after getting it back we had to take it in again. The car stalled and all my lights came on and it wouldn't even shift out of first gear. They said they had to replace the ignition switch. It worked for about 3 months and then did the same thing in August and had to go back. They again replaced the ignition switch.

    I am a little scared to drive it because I have no clue if it will do it again. I have read online where others have had the same problem and they keep having to get it fixed only to have it do the very same thing over and over again. Now they are going to have to replace both of my fog lamps because they are cracked.

    Also my power locks have stopped working and I have even got out of my car shut the door and the car locked without me doing anything. That is scary because I have small children in my car and it could have locked them in.

    SO they are fixing that also. I am really getting tired of this car and all the problems in the short amount of time we have had it. We would like to get a new car (not a Jeep).

    Hopefully we can get this all resolved. We didn't go out and pay $35000 for a brand new car that I have to take in to be fixed all the time and don't feel safe driving my family in.

I towed my vehicle to the nearest Jeep dealership and was told that I would need a new computer? So here I am hoping it can be that simple but it's not.

    My 2003 Jeep Liberty has had the rear calibers seize at 25,000 miles and now again at 63,000 miles. Chrysler states this is standard wear and tear of a vehicle. I DISAGREE! Yes calibers need to be replaced, but calibers should NOT seize up totally, especially at this mileage. The first time this occurred the vehicle was still under warranty, but Chrysler is not willing to help out this time around. It's truly a shame to have an unexpected $600 repair bill to a vehicle that you're still making payments on. Also truly a shame that Chrysler has lost the sale of any new vehicles that are in my future. I did ask Chysler if this was a problem reported by any other Liberty owners, but of course they denied such. Somehow I very much doubt it!

    We bought a Jeep Compass because it was supposed to get 23 city and 26 highway (in the fine print on the sticker it states: 19-27 mpg city driving and 22-30 mpg highway driving with the options on our vehicle)for $27,000. Two days after we bought it we returned to the dealer complaining that it was only getting 17 -19 mpg and wanting to turn it back in. We bought the car hoping to save money on gas...it certainly wasn't for the size! We had a Ford Explorer before - much bigger and got THAT milage! We were told it just needed some time to get broken in. We made several more trips to the dealer to have the computer reflashed supposedly to improve the milage. After all of these trips to the dealers it still only averages 18 -19 mpg by keeping track of the milage and gallons used. This, by the way does not correlate to what the indicator on the dashboard states you are getting for milage.....and we do almost completely highway driving. Finally we did a cold call on the dealership and caught the manager. We had made several phone calls regarding this problem but no one returned our calls 99% of the time. Finally at this point we had 10,000 miles on the vehicle. The deal they offered us was $19,000 for trade in on a vehicle that was 2 months old and now had 10,000 miles on it, BECAUSE THEY KEPT TELLING US THAT TIME AND REFLASHING THE COMPUTER WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM....WHICH IT DID NOT. Therefore, it cost us not only the gas to fill it, but $800/mile in car cost. Tony says he talked to Chrysler and they will do nothing for us.

I thought my dog had pushed the shifter and even if he did, the shift shouldn't have gone into reverse while I was driving since you need to be at a complete stop, foot on the break and need to push in the shift button in order to put the car into reverse. I suffered whiplash and severe lower back pain that I'm still being treated for one year later.

As a result, I have been driving around for two weeks now with a piece of cardboard holding up the window.

    On April 14, 2007 I brought my 2007 Jeep Compass to Manhattan Jeep Dodge Chrysler in New York City for a 6k mile oil change. The total charged for this service was $135 before labor expenses were dropped after I complained of the high charge. The invoice which I regretfully paid was $85.72 which is still outrageous for a simple oil change.

    The service advisor indicated the high charge was due to the use of special oil and labor. When I informed the advisor that Jeep dealerships in Brooklyn, New York specifically Kings Plaza Jeep only charges $39.95 for the same service, he insisted that these Jeep service centers were putting the wrong oil in the car; this was an absurd response.

    My annoyance with this situation compelled the service director to look into the charges while giving me a $40 credit toward my next service visit. He also mentioned to fax him any documentation that would prove my argument and he would refund the difference. On April 16 I faxed the service director a copy of the oil change receipt from Kings Plaza Jeep.

    The fax clearly shows a $39.95 charge for the same service and oil as performed and used by Manhattan Jeep. The fax also showed what Bay Ridge and Garden City Jeep both charge for a 2007 Jeep Compass oil change; both under $40 using the same oil. In addition the service director was provided a copy of a $29.99 oil change promotion certificate, which I received from Manhattan Jeep after purchasing my vehicle from them several months earlier (I didn’t have the certificate with me at the time of the service).

    Needless to say I never heard back from the service director so I called him a week after sending the fax. Apparently annoyed I called him, he was abrupt and said he would credit my credit card $40. As of today I have not received a credit or a returned phone call from the sales manager who I advised of this situation or the owner of the dealership who I left a message. Do not do business with this dealership.

    Besides overcharging their customers for simple services their customer relationship skills are poor and they do not keep their word, which for me and I’m sure other consumers is more valuable than $40.

If you look at the design of these trucks, you'll find a real brain buster, the air intake sits BELOW the motor, IN FRONT of the front tire. The result was water into the air intake from a little 8 puddle, hardly sounds like a rugged 'Off Road' truck! OK, the Beauty is I had paid over $2000.00 for the 'Top of the Line' warranty, and they covered NOTHING!

    I have brought it in for service before on a warranty related issue, all I ever get is an excuse why I have to pay. The insurance company paid them to put another motor in it, but when they did, they stole my other parts that they were supposed to re-install, like my Alternator, AC Pump, all the parts from the top of the motor were rusty and used, they put a junkyard motor in and instead of replacing my parts, the just left the junk stuff on the used motor and kept my 'Good' parts.

    The sales guy's thought the whole thing was pretty funny, as I was leaving one told me We got your Money again, have a great weekend sucker, the biggest problem with these guys in addition to just being crooks, is they are so cocky about it when you catch them and their rip-offs, they actually laugh about it, well, I suppose why not, after all they seem to get away with it. I'd adding here a picture of a postcard they sent me to try to get me to do business with them again, it features 'My Truck' (same make, etc.) driving through the ocean! It's just amazing how these crooks take advantage of people through deceptive advertising, if you did this you would blow the motor, trust me I did it.

    We have owned our 2006 Jeep Commander for 9 months. In the 9 months that we have owned it, we have had 2 rock chips patched on the windshield, and now have 4 separate cracks spreading across the windshield that all originated from below the windshield wipers.

    It seems that their is either a design flaw with the windshield (is it too boxy, square, and tall/big?) for all of these problems to be happening. We don't drive on gravel roads at all, and have never had rock chips and cracks in our windshield on any other vehicle we have owned except for this one. It seems that the cracks may be the result of stress on the windshield, or just a design flaw in particular. We have a friend that also owns a 2006 Jeep Commander, and they are currently on their 3 windshield after owning their vehicle for 11 months.

    We took it into the local Jeep dealership to have them take a look at it and tell us if they can repair it under warranty, and they pretty much told us they don't ever repair anything glass related under warranty, and continued to point out that each of the 6+ spots on the windshield (even below the wiper blades) were all rock chips and they couldn't do anything about that.

    My biggest problem is, I do not want to pay close to $500 (what we received an estimate for) to have the windshield replaced only to have it happen again and again. I have heard that others have the same complaint about their windshields and am wondering how many others with this same problem have to complain before Jeep issues a recall on the Commanders because of the windshield (not to mention the major problem of the blind spot in the rear of the car.)

    Other than the windshield and the blind spot in the rear, we love our Commander, but these two issues seem to be pretty major issues to us.

There is a case action lawsuit going on concerning the front brake problems in jeeps and there was a recall on them after mine was fix the first time.

    The car was a little over a year old when they first went out. I told the girl I talked to I have never heard of repairing brakes that soon as I have only put brakes on one other car we had and we had it for ten years.

    Was really upset and told her we have owned 12 or more Chrysler products and they just lost a good customer and I would be buying G.M. from now on and more then likely shortly as I figure they are going to keep doing this. Of course they don't care. Checked around and people say there is no way this should have happened.

    I paid $272.50 for something that was a reocurring problem with a class action lawsuit and the car was still under a three year warranty

    Although Jeep had issued a recall in Aug 2006on the lower ball joints of the vehicle, I did not receive my recall notice until the end of December 2006. I called the dealer and the part was apparently on back order. Its a shame the dealer did not have this part in a timely manner as on 1/30/2006 the wheel of my vehicle came off while I was driving!!!

    The ball joint had broken which caused the wheel to come off completely. I was very lucky that I did not cause a serious accident!! It was a MAJOR inconvenience as I lost a day of work as well as had to pay for a tow truck to take me to the dealer to have it fixed. When I initially walked into the dealer, a representative had let me know that the part was still on recall.

    They were, however, able to fix the car, but I am still now out of pocket. I do not believe this recall notification is/was out to consumers in a timely fashion whatsoever and in such a safety hazard I do not think this part should be on back order at all. This is a MAJOR safety hazard that already has caused a number of accidents in the country,.

    Total engine failure in my 2005 Jeep liberty. The service manager says it is due to lack of maintenance. This is ridiculous. I have owned 8 Jeeps and I have never had any such problems.They are refusing to fix it under my Jeep warranty or my extended warranty that I purchased. I had no warning of any problems. The only thing that happened is that the transmission light came on.

    My Jeep's freeze plug blew out 3 weeks ago. Then another blew out last week Each time it sprayed 200 degree antifreeze oil all over the Engine and the hood and compartment. Every time I start the car,it smell like it is over heating. I asked the dealer to clean the engine, he said Chrysler has to autorize it.

    I call customer service. They told me it is a maintenance problem. Since when do you maintain a Freeze plug it is a defect,and they fixed the plugs for free. they claim they don't know what is causing it. so now I have a car that smell and may break down at any time.

    I asked them if it is a defect under warranty and they fixed it, since the defect cause the oil to spry it should be covered to clean up the car. They said to bad, that is their policy. I guess Ford Chevy or Toyota will be in our future purchase. that caused other damage

    Michael Red Lion PA (12/13/06)

    I purchased a 2005 Jeep Liberty Diesel from Chrysler Jeep in Red Lion, PA in 10/05. Since my purchase, I have had nothing but problems with the engine. The Jeep has been in and out of the dealership at least 12 times. I can provide many of the service papers if needed. PA has a lemon law, but only up to 12,000 miles. Due to my work, I put on 12,000 miles within 3-4 months. I called Chrysler to complain about the problems I've been having and the only solution they gave me was to purchase the extended warranty that would give me coverage for up to 100K miles. The cost of the extended warranty is about $2,500. I went ahead and purchased the extended warranty and am paying that in monthly installments. I would like to pursue the Federal Lemon Law at this point.

    The Jeep Diesel has had two recalls, which have been completed on my vehicle. However, the transmission has had numerous problems that have been fixed and replaced various times. I've had the Jeep 1 year and it's been back to the dealership every other month and the problems still persist. The dealership and Chrysler have done nothing to assist me with these problems. I want to consult with an attorney about the Federal Lemon Law.

    I was injured and my vehicle was damaged when my jeep went into reverse on its own while idling in park. After the incident I became aware that a recall had been issued for this reason. I was never informed of this recall by the manufacturer or the dealer where I purchased and have my vehicle repaired at.

    The jeep knocked me to the ground and dragged me while my hand was slammed in the door. It ran over my leg resulting in injurying my knee. My hand is cut and severly bruised from being slammed in the door and my body is covered in road rash from being dragged. In addition, my jeep is wrecked so I have no transportation to work or school or doctor's appointments.

    I have a 2004 JEEP Liberty. Still under warranty. I have had it to two dealers because there is a problem with the transmission not shifting properly. Both dealers told me there was nothing wrong with it. Then I had a local mechanic tell me that my lower ball joints were bad. He took me right under the car and showed me how they were loose. Took it to a dealer and was told there was nothing wrong with it...that it was within their factory specs. I now suspect this is also the case with the transmission...it is probably within their factory specs. Not sure why they bother having a warranty if they are not going to fix anything that is wrong...only things that are totally shot. I now find out that my JEEP is included in a recall for....surprise, surprise...bad ball joints!! Only problem is that I have to continue driving it until they get around to sending me a recall notice. I feel this is unsafe since bad ball joints can wear on your tires.

    No damage yet, but there is certainly potential for damage since I have to drive around with bad ball joints.

    I bought a new 2006 Jeep wrangle rubicon in Dec. of 2005. I have 11,000 miles on it. Twice in the past week the car has suddenly shut down while driving on the freeway. There is no acceleration, power, etc. Then, the check engine light comes on. I was nearly plowed into on both occasions from the rear. Luckily, I was going slighly downhill, so I could get to the center divide. This car is so dangerous and I could have been seriously hurt if not killed. I brought it to a jeep dealership. They are going to put it on the diagnostic machine to see what the problem might be. I have yet to hear from them. I refuse to drive this car until the problem is taken care of. It is an accident waiting to happen as it stands now.

    On 12/29/03 I purchased a 2004 Jeep Liberty SUV (1 month after a recall notice came out on 2003 libertys, which of course I never received). During January 2004 my jeep spun around on the road (360 degrees) three times, all at slow speeds. I ended up off road on all three occasions - once in a snow bank and the jeep felt like it was going to tip over on the drivers side, but I sat still and it remained standing. I was able to back out of snow bank. Once I went off in a ditch in front of a school bus full of kids. The bus driver had to pull off raod to avoid collision.

    Once, I was actually at a dead stop, waiting behind a turning vehicle. The minute I barely touched the gas pedal, it immediately spun in a 360 degree circle. I find it incredible that from a dead stop upon light acceleration, the jeep would not move forward even an eighth of an inch, but start to spin uncontrollably in 360degree circle. Each time it was like the steering was not in my control, like it was doing it's own thing ...

    Three weeks after service appointment, April 5, 2004, I was traveling on Hwy 55 from Boise to Cascade, going speed limit of 65 mph. My jeep uncontrollably veered off to rightside ditch, came back on road, then veered off again into ditch, where it catapulted off enbankment of driveway; sending my jeep 20 feet in air, where it hit a power pole head on, caught on fire, rolled in the air, rolled over fence, landed on ground, continued to roll and continued to burn.

    An ex-volunteer firefighter was only person on road at the same time. He was driving toward me and saw whole wreck unfold. He called 911 and after 3 tries finally pulled me from the burning jeep. Thirty seconds after he pulled me from jeep it exploded in flames.

    I was Life Flighted to nearest trauma center in Boise, Idaho. I have no recollection of any of this because of my brain injury and memory loss. I'm reporting the facts that were reported on a local tv news show, on the front page of two local newspapers, and what the firefighter told me he saw and did. He told me what didn't make sense to him was why the jeep went off the road the second time. He said when the jeep came back on the road it looked like I was getting the vehicle back under control, and then all of a sudden it veered uncontrollably back into the ditch.

    He said the amazing thing was that the jeep never lost speed, even after it had gone into ditch twice, it still was coming at a a speed of 65 mph. He said that didn't make sense. The vehicle should have slowed down, once it ran off road. Also the sherriff said they could tell I was not speeding, and he said there were no skid marks, because usually in an accident like this the driver slams on brakes, whether the smart thing to do or not, and even if I had slammed on brakes there were no skid marks left. Basically it was like the steering was out of control and the brakes were not working.
