2005 Jeep Liberty complaints

AT APPROX 8:00 ON THE MORNING OF 2/16/15 MY 2005 JEEP LIBERTY, 3.8L V-6 WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO ACCELERATE OUT OF CONTROL WHILE BRAKING FOR A STOP SIGN. THE ENGINE WAS COLD, I HAD JUST STARTED IT AND THE TEMPERATURE WAS IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S. I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 27 MPH, AND BEGAN TO SLOW FOR THE STOP. AT ABOUT 10-15 MPH, I NOTICED THE CAR WAS NO LONGER SLOWING DOWN. IT SEEMED AS THOUGH THE BRAKES STOPPED WORKING. AT THE SAME TIME, THE ENGINE BRIEFLY REVVED ON ITS OWN. THIS MADE THE CAR ACCELERATE. I COULD NOT STOP AT THE STOP SIGN AND THE CAR ACCELERATED INTO 50 MPH CROSS TRAFFIC. I MADE A HARD RIGHT TURN TO BRING THE CAR NEXT TO THE CURB, ALLOWING ROOM FOR TRAFFIC TO GO BY. AT THE SAME TIME, I PUT THE TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL AND THAT ALLOWED THE CAR TO STOP. I THEN PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND REVVED THE ENGINE. IT SEEMED TO RESPOND NORMALLY AT THAT POINT (ENGINE WOULD RETURN TO IDLE IMMEDIATELY AFTER TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE GAS). AFTER SHIFTING BETWEEN PART TO DRIVE, THEN REVERSE, ETC. SEVERAL TIMES, IT STILL SEEMED TO WORK NORMALLY SO I CONTINUED TO WORK WITH NO FURTHER PROBLEMS. IT SEEMED AS THOUGH WHILE COMING TO A STOP, THE TRANSMISSION DID NOT DOWN SHIFT OR DISENGAGE. AS THE ENGINE RPMS WERE REDUCED BELOW IDLE DUE TO THE CAR SLOWING, THE COMPUTER CONTROL SYSTEM TRIED TO BRING THE ENGINE SPEED BACK UP, CAUSING IT TO ACCELERATE. A COUPLE OF FACTS - THE CAR HAS APPROX. 159,800 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I PURCHASED IT USED A FEW MONTHS AGO AND HAVE PUT 13,000 M

I RECEIVED A LETTER NOTIFYING ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE IN LATE AUGUST OF 2014. I HAVE CALLED THE JEEP RECALL CENTER 4 TIMES SINCE THEN AND I STILL HAVE NOT HAD MY JEEP REPAIRED. THE LAST TIME I CALLED ON JANUARY 29TH, 2015 THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE PUT ME IN CONTACT WITH KENDALL DODGE IN MIAMI. I SPOKE TO [XXX] FROM THE CAR DEALERSHIP AND SHE ADVISED ME THAT I WAS FOURTH ON THE WAITING LIST FOR THIS REPAIR. IT IS NOW FEBRUARY 12TH, 2015 AND I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM KENDALL DODGE OR THE JEEP RECALL CENTER. HOW MUCH LONGER DO I HAVE TO WAIT FOR SUCH A SIMPLE REPAIR OF MY JEEP? ...UPDATED 05/14/15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.

2005 JEEP LIBERTY. CONSUMER STATES ITS BEEN 13 MONTHS AND THE DEALER KEEPS TELLING HIM NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. WOULD LIKE TO GET PROBLEM FIXED. *TA THE CONSUMER REFERENCED RECALL # 13V252000. *JB

DRIVER HAD JUST PULLED OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND WAS GOING DOWN THE STREET. AFTER ABOUT 150 FEET FROM DRIVEWAY, VEHICLE SUDDENLY PULLED TO THE LEFT, HIT A PARKED VAN, RODE UP ON THE VAN'S FRONT TIRE AND ROLLED OVER. INSPECTION OF THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE REVEALED THE THE DRIVERS SIDE LOWER CONTROL ARM HAD SNAPPED CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL.

MY SON TOOK HIS 2005 JEEP LIBERTY IN FOR THE RECALL WHERE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO INSTALL A TRAILER HITCH TO PREVENT THE GAS TANK FROM RUPTURING DURING A REAR END COLLISION. THEY TOLD HIM HIS FRAME HAD TOO MUCH RUST ON IT AND THAT THEY COULD NOT PUT ON THE HITCH. IT IS A NY CAR AND HE NOW LIVES IN ARKANSAS. IT IS IN NORMAL CONDITION FOR A 10 YEAR OLD CAR DRIVEN YEAR AROUND IN UPSTATE NY. I AM SURE THAT THEY HAVE NOT SEE AS MUCH RUST ON VEHICLES IN ARKANSAS SO I THINK THEY ARE ANTSY ABOUT ANY RUST AT ALL. OR, THEY ARE LOOKING FOR ANY EXCUSE NOT TO DO THE REPAIR. THE AMOUNT OF RUST JUST SPEAKS TO THE ORIGINAL DESIGN/MANUFACTURING QUALITY IF ANYTHING. IT BEEN OVER 2.5 YEARS SINCE THE RECALL WAS FIRST ANNOUNCED AND OVER A YEAR TO THE POINT THAT THEY HAD ENOUGH HITCHES. HE'S BEEN TRYING TO GET IN FOR REPAIR THE LAST 6 MONTHS. I'M SURE 3 YEARS AGO THERE WAS LESS RUST ON THE FRAME BUT IT HAS TAKEN THIS LONG TO GET IT IN. IS JEEP OFF THE HOOK BECAUSE OF RUST? SHOULDN'T JEEP BE REQUIRED TO FIX THE PROBLEM ON ALL VEHICLES THAT ARE STILL ON THE ROAD? SHOULDN'T THEY HAVE ANOTHER FIX IN PLACE FOR JEEPS THAT CAN'T ACCEPT THE "HITCH" FIX? IT APPEARS FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THAT JEEP PURPOSELY DELAYED THE RECALL SO THERE WERE FEWER VEHICLES LEFT ON THE ROAD AND NOW THEY GET TO MAKE THE CALL WHEN THERE IS TOO MUCH RUST. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FEEL THAT MY SON IS SAFE IF JEEP IS ALLOWED TO SAY "PASS" ON REPAIRING HIS VEHICLE. WHO ALLOWED JEEP TO DECIDE IF A VEHICLE GETS THE FIX OR NOT. WHY WAS JEEP A

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THE RECALL HAS BEEN DONE ON THE VEHICLE I HAVE. *TR

MAKING A LEFT TURN ONTO A MAJOR ROUTE AT 30 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE TAKES OFF ON IT'S OWN AND BEGINS TO SWERVE PICKING UP SPEED WHILE BOTH MY FEET ARE OFF OF THE PEDALS. IT HITS ONE CONCRETE WALL ON A BRIDGE AND PROCEEDS TO CROSS YELLOW LINE PICKING UP MORE SPEED BEFORE SMASHING STRAIGHT INTO OTHER CONCRETE WALL. IT'S THE ONLY THING THAT STOPPED THIS VEHICLE FROM CONTINUING ON. AIR BAGS WENT OFF AND SPLIT EXPELLING STRANGE ODOR. A JEEP DEALER COMMENTED THAT EITHER A SENSOR WENT OR ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAD STUCK. I COULD NOT STRAIGHTEN THE VEHICLE OUT BY STEERING AT ALL.

WHILE FUELING UP AT THE PUMP, THE GAS STATIONS PUMPS AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF IS TRIGGERED VARIOUS TIMES WHILE FILLING, RESULTING IN GASOLINE OVERFLOWING ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND RESULTING IN A PUDDLE ON THE FLOOR. THIS IS A BIG CONCERN AS THERE MIGHT BE A RISK OF FIRE/EXPLOSION. *TR

I AM CONTACTING YOU IN REFERENCE TO RECALL N46 / 13V- 252 ON THE JEEP HITCH ISSUE. I HAVE JUMPED THRU CHRYSLERS' HOOPS FOR THE LAST 12 MONTHS ONLY TO BE TOLD KNOW THAT MY REESE HITCH THAT I HAD INSTALLED PRIOR TO ALL THIS STARTING IS NOT A "OEM" PART AND THAT CHRYSLER WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME FOR IT. I HAD THIS HITCH INSTALLED AT A LICENSED DEALER AND THE HITCH MEETS ICC REQUIREMENTS FOR A CLASS 3 HITCH. I AM SURE THAT I'M IN THE SAME BOAT THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS ARE IN, AND I HOPE YOU CAN ADVISE ME WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH, A LOUD KNOCKING SOUND EMITTED FROM THE UNDER CARRIAGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC.

TYPICALLY, WHEN REFUELING, UPON REACHING THE FULL LEVEL WITH THE FUEL PUMP NOZZLE IN THE AUTO SHUTOFF POSITION THE PUMP NOZZLE WILL SHUT OFF BUT GASOLINE WILL CONTINUE TO FLOW AND SPEW OUT OF THE FILL TUBE, DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR, ONTO THE GROUND AND ONTO ME. I'VE LEARNED TO MANUALLY STOP ADDING FUEL PRIOR TO THE FULL LEVEL TO AVOID THE RISKS THIS SITUATION PRESENTS. ON 11/22/2014 WITH THE FUEL TANK NEARLY EMPTY I ATTEMPTED TO REFUEL WITH FUEL NOZZLE IN AUTO POSITION FOR THE INITIAL FILL PERIOD. AFTER ADDING APPROXIMATELY 2 GALLONS GASOLINE BEGAN SPEWING OUT. TO STOP THE FLOW I HAD TO GRAB THE NOZZLE AND DISENGAGE THE LEVER MANUALLY AND IN THE PROCESS SOAKED MY HAND, ARM AND LOWER LEG WITH GASOLINE. I ATTEMPTED TO BEGIN REFUELING AGAIN WITH AN IDENTICAL OUT COME. I MOVED TO A DIFFERENT PUMP STATION AND TWICE ATTEMPTED TO FILL BY MANUALLY OPERATING THE NOZZLE LEVER. GASOLINE POURED AND SPEWED OUT BOTH TIMES. AFTER HAVING ADDED JUST 5 GALLONS TOTAL I STOPPED ATTEMPTING TO ADD FUEL. I AM NOW IN THE PROCESS OF FINDING SERVICE/REPAIR BEFORE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AGAIN AS I DON'T BELIEVE IT IS SAFE TO ADD FUEL IN CURRENT CONDITION. *TR

IN A CLEAR SUNNY DAY I WAS ENTERING THE FREEWAY WHEN I HEARD A BIG BANG ON MY LOWER END FRONT OF MY JEEP LIBERTY. THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE ROAD THAT COULD HAVE DAMAGED IT. THE ROAD WAS CLEAR OF ANY DEBRIS. AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS TAKING IT IN INTO MY JEEP DEALERSHIP THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. FINALLY NOT THIRD BUT FORTH WAS A CHARM WHEN THEY TOLD ME THE LOWER FRONT ARMS AND BUSHING NEEDED REPLACING. I HAVE HEARD FROM MANY JEEP OWNERS THAT THEY HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS I WANT TO KNOW WHY THESE PARTS HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLED. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 JEEP LIBERTY SPORT I NOTICED COUPLE YEARS AGO THAT EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK UP IT DOES NOT SHUT THE GAS NOZZLE OFF AND ALWAYS BACK FLOWS OUT AND RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF MY JEEP. I THOUGHT THE GAS STATION ISSUES UNTIL TRY MULTIPLES GAS STATIONS. *TR

DRIVER SEAT BELT UNLATCHES FROM TIME TO TIME. I COULD BE JUST SITTING AT LIGHT, OR DRIVING DOWN ROAD AND IT JUST UNLATCHES.

MY GIRLFRIEND OF 21 YEARS, WENT INTO THE DOCTOR AND WHEN SHE CAME OUT HER JEEP LIBERTY WOULD START AND THEN STALL. SHE SAID THERE WAS CLUNKING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE. I GET THERE AND CALL AAA AND HAVE IT TOWED TO A PLUS TRANSMISSION AND AUTO REPAIR IN BRIGHTON MICHIGAN. THEY SAID THE ROCKER ARM CAME LOSE FROM THE ADJUSTER AND THAT SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. NOT SO, TURNS OUT IT WAS A BROKEN VALVE SEAT ALSO THAT HAD DROPPED DOWN INTO THE CYLINDER CAUSING CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. WE ARE LEFT WITH THE EXPENSE OF REPLACING THE ENGINE AT A COST TO US OF $5600.00. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE CHRYSLER 3.7 V6 ENGINE. IT HAPPENS JUST AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRES. WITH TODAYS TECHNOLOGY I BELIEVE THAT ENGINE SHOULD HAVE HAD LASTED UP TO 200000 MILES. SINCE WE CANT AFFORD A NEW CAR THIS IS THE ONLY WAY WE CAN GO. HOWEVER, I BELIEVE CHRYSLER SHOULD HELP WITH THE EXPENSE OF THIS. NEVER WILL I BUY FROM CHRYSLER AGAIN. *TR
