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 ST

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, THE PUMP FAILS TO AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL FILLER NECK. THE ENTIRE GAS TANK MUST BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE VALVE IS PART OF THE TANK AND CANNOT BE REPLACED SEPARATELY. THE FUEL SPILLAGE HAZARD CREATES RISK OF EXPLOSION AT THE GAS STATION.

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.

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.

IT WAS MADE AT THE SAME PLANT!! MY FRONT BALL JOINTS NEED REPLACED BADLY AND I DO BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE COVERED. I BOUGHT NEW TIRES AND CANNOT EVEN GET THEM ALIGNED BECAUSE OF THE BALL JOINTS I DO NOT HAVE THE $$$

THE REAR SUSPENSION LOWER CONTROL ARMS MAY CORRODE AND COULD BREAK WITHOUT WARNING. SAFETY RISK: A BROKEN REAR SUSPENSION LOWER CONTROL ARM COULD CAUSE A LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND CAUSE A CRASH.

SAFETY RISK: FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE CAN RESULT IN AN UNDERBODY FIRE.

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 HAD TO HAVE MY FRONT SUSPENSION BALL JOINTS REPLACED. I UNDERSTAND THAT MY VECHILE WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST BUT IT WAS BUILT IN MARCH 2006. THEY WERE ABOUT TO FALL APART WHEN I TOOK THEM TO BE REPAIRED. I THINK THEY SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. I HEARD A NOISE AND WHEN I TOOK WHAT I THOUGHT WAS BREAKS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS LUCKY THAT THE BALL JOINTS HAD NOT FALLEN OUT. I HAD JUST GOT BACK FROM A FOUR OUT DRIVE TO THE BEACH. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

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

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.

THERE IS A WHITE POWDER LIKE SUBSTANCE THAT COMES OUT OF THE AIR VENTS AND HAS AN OILY TEXTURE AND AN 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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING IN REVERSE, A LOUD GRINDING TYPE NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.
