2006 Jeep Liberty complaints

UPON INSPECTION, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE WHEEL WAS NOT PROPERLY ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER BALL JOINT FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL POPPING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE BALL JOINTS FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V288000 (SUSPENSION); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 200,000.

THE JEEP WAS BEING DRIVEN BY MY GRANDDAUGHTER LEAVING HER WORK AT STARBUCKS, WHEN SHE TRIED TO EXIT THE PARKING LOT THE RIGHT FRONT BALL JOINT DROPPED OUT AND THE JEEP SET DOWN ON THE A-FRAME AND STOPPED. HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY SHE COULD HAVE BEEN BADLY HURT OR EVEN KILLED. CHRYSLER HAS A RECALL ON THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM FOR THE 06 JEEP LIBERTY BUT INSIST THAT A RECALL IS ISSUED BY VIN NUMBER, WHICH DOES NOT MAKE SENSE, THE BALL JOINT IS A VERY BAD DESIGN AND THE SHOULD RECALL ALL 2006 OR LATER MODELS WITH THIS CONDITION.

THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH ON MY VEHICLE REGULARLY FAILS. MY MECHANIC HAS DONE THIS REPLACEMENT SO MANY TIMES I HAVE LOST COUNT. HIS FIRST TRY HE USED A LESS EXPENSIVE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH, BUT SINCE THE FIRST TIME HE HAS ONLY USED THE MANUFACTURER PART. THE LAST REPLACEMENT LASTED 6 WEEKS.

ORIGINALLY PURCHASED TOW HITCH AND PAID FOR INSTALLATION AT A CAR REPAIR SHOP, THEN LATER HAD TO STOP BY A JEEP DEALERSHIP TO INSPECT IT. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP REMOVED MY HITCH TO INSTALL A NEW ONE BUT STOLE MY OLD HITCH THAT I ALREADY PAID FOR. I COULD HAVE RETURNED THE OLD HITCH OR USED IT FOR MY OTHER VEHICLE BUT INSTEAD THEY REFUSED TO GIVE IT BACK TO ME AND WOULDN'T EVEN GIVE ME BACK THE SMALL RUBBER TOW HITCH COVER I HAD ON IT. SO NOW I'M OUT THE MONEY I PAID FOR THE ORIGINAL HITCH AND NOW CHRYSLER JEEP GETS AWAY WITH STEALING MY AFTERMARKET ADD-ONS. THIS IS CRIMINAL AND I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR WHAT THEY TOOK FROM ME. THE DEALERSHIP WAS RUDE TO ME AND TOLD ME THEY HAD TO DESTROY THE TOW HITCH I BROUGHT IN. OVERALL, IT WAS THE WORST SERVICE EVER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN FOR A SCHEDULED TIRE ROTATION AND THE MECHANIC INFORMED THAT THE LUG NUTS ON THREE OF THE TIRES HAD TO BE CUT DUE TO SEVERE RUST. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 167,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

JEEP WOULD NOT START -HAD LIGHTS, RADIO, HORN ETC. BUT IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER AT ALL. TOWED TO DEALER. TECH PERFORMED DIAGNOSIS AND FOUND THE PROBLEM - STEERING COLUMN HAD TO BE REPLACED. TOTAL COST $798.00. I WAS TOLD THAT THE STEERING COLUMN AND IGNITION SWITCH WERE PROBLEM ISSUES IN THIS MAKE AND MODEL BUT NO RECALL WAS IN PLACE TO REPAIR. IGNITION SWITCH RECALL REPLACE IN 2006 JEEP LIBERTY MANUAL TRANSMISSION BUT NOT IN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

EVERY TIME I START TO FILL MY TANK IT OVERFLOWS. I LOSE APPROX. 1/2 GALLON ON THE GROUND EVERY TIME I PUT FUEL IN. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! I JUST BOUGHT THIS JEEP A FEW WEEKS AGO. THE PREVIOUS OWNER/ DEALERSHIP DID NOT MAKE US AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION SLAMS OUT OF 1ST GEAR INTO NEUTRAL WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS REAR-END COLLISION BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS SUDDENLY OUT OF GEAR AT A CRITICAL POINT OF ACCELERATION. IT IS UNPREDICTABLE AND THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT IT IS TO HOLD THE STICK SHIFT SECURELY WHILE ACCELERATING. IT HAPPENS QUITE FREQUENTLY.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN NEED OF NEW BRAKES, ROTORS, PARKING BRAKE SHOES AND HARDWARE AT 93000 MILES. A GRINDING NOISE FROM THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS PRESENT WHEN IN MOTION AND ASSUMED TO BE WARPED ROTORS. WHEN THE ROTORS WERE REMOVED IT WAS FOUND THAT THE PARKING BRAKE BACKING PLATE AND THE BOLTS THAT SECURE IT HAVE RUSTED TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PLATE IS LOOSE AND NO LONGER SECURED, WHICH MAKES THE PARKING BRAKE DEFECTIVE AND IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND FOR A VEHICLE UNDER 10 YEARS OLD AND 100000 MILES TO HAVE PARTS RUST SO SEVERELY THAT THEY FAIL IS AN ISSUE THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD ADDRESS, AS IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS PART WAS NOT MADE TO LAST.

HAD BOTH REAR WINDOWS AND THEIR REGULATORS REPLACED AT 24,612 MILES AS BOTH WINDOWS HAD FALLEN INTO THE DOORS. THE REPAIR WAS MADE UNDER GOODWILL AS THE VEHICLE WAS MORE THAN 3 YEARS OLD BUT UNDER 36,000 MILES. THE PROBLEM WITH THE REAR WINDOW APPEARED AGAIN BEFORE 49,000 MILES AND I MUST BEAR THE COST OF THE REPAIR, WHICH WILL BE WELL OVER $300. WE LIVE IN CONSTANT FEAR OF USING OUR POWER WINDOWS AS EVENTUALLY THEY WILL COLLAPSE INTO THE DOORS AGAIN FOR ANOTHER EXPENSIVE FIX AND MORE TIME WAITING FOR REPAIRS AT THE DEALERSHIP. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW AND STILL OWN IT. THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING WHEN THE WINDOW PROBLEM HAPPENED.

ABS SYSTEM GOES OUT WHICH IN TURN MAKES THE CRUISE CONTROL GO OUT. THEN WHEN YOU USE THE VEHICLE AGAIN THE ABS IS ON SO IS THE CRUISE CONTROL BUT THE BRAKES DON'T WORK WELL AND GRAB. THEN WHEN YOU ARE USING THE LIGHTS AT NIGHT IT DIMS FOR NO REASON INSIDE AND OUT. STILL WAITING ON THE FIX FOR THE REAR END FUEL TANK ISSUE

[XXX]: COMPLAINT ABOUT JEEP BACKING PLATES: 2006 JEEP LIBERTY VIN # [XXX].I AM WRITING ABOUT A SAFETY PROBLEM WE ENCOUNTERED OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS. ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS; 8-13 AND 9-3-15 I ALMOST DROVE OFF THE ROAD WHEN SUDDENLY MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE,LOUD, CLAMORING NOISE OCCURRED, WHICH MADE IT IMPERATIVE THAT I PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD/AWAIT ASSISTANCE. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THE BACKING PLATES HAD CORRODED AND RUSTED TO SUCH A SEVERE DEGREE THE CAR WAS INOPERABLE WITHOUT EXPENSIVE REPAIRS (557.97 EACH TIME).THE CLOSE TIMING OF THESE INCIDENTS SHOW THAT THE LIFESPAN OF THESE PARTS WERE NOT MADE TO LAST. JEEP DECLINED THE REQUEST TO REIMBURSE EXPENSES PAID, AND FAILED TO ADDRESS THE BIGGER SAFETY CONCERN. I WORRY SOMEONE WILL NOT BE AS LUCKY WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURS. IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN A VEHICLE <10 YRS OLD USED SOLELY AS A PASSENGER VEHICLE, IS MADE OF SUCH POOR QUALITY PARTS THAT THEY LITERALLY RUST OFF THE VEHICLE WHILE IT IS IN TRANSIT. IN DOING RESEARCH ON THE EXTENT OF THESE BACKING PLATE ISSUES, I SEE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN A SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS FROM A QUALITY, FINANCIAL, AND SAFETY PERSPECTIVE, YET I SEE THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE. IT IS MY VIEW THAT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS QUALITY ISSUE BEFORE I ALMOST HAD ACCIDENTS TWICE WITHIN A 3 WEEK PERIOD. THIS MAKE AND MODEL HAS BEEN THE SUBJECT OF SEVERAL CONSUMER SAFETY RECALLS, I AM SURPRISED THAT THIS HAS BACKING PLATE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN BROUGHT TO A

TODAY THE JEEP DEALER SAID THE FRAME RAIL WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO INSTALL THE HITCH AS CALLED FOR IN THE RECALL. I CALLED THE CHRYSLER COMPLAINT LINE AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING CHRYSLER CAN DO. SO NOW I MUST DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE, HOW CAN I SELL IT, OR EVEN TRADE IT IN. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW? I READ THAT VEHICLES LESS THAN 10 YEARS OLD COULD BE PURCHASED BACK. THESE JEEPS WERE RECALLED FOR REAR SUSPENSION COMPONETS RUSTING UP SO NOW THAT THE FRAMES IS RUSTING I HAVE TO DRIVE A DEATH TRAP. I AM WONDERING HOW MANY TIMES CHRYSLER IS USING THESE EXCUSES IN ORDER TO NOT DO ANYTHING. ONE COULD EVEN THINK THIS RECALL WAS CRAFTED IN SUCH A WAY THAT CHRYSLER COULD GET OFF USING THESE EXCUSES WHAT ARE THE PEOPLE IN MY SITUATION SUPPOSED TO DO????

CANNOT FILL GAS TANK WITHOUT GAS SPEWING OUT EVEN IF TRYING TO FILL IT VERY SLOW. I'M ONLY ABLE GET A FEW DOLLARS IN A TIME, BUT ALWAYS END UP TAKING A "GAS BATH." ALSO WHEN I PURCHASED THE JEEP LIBERTY IN 2009 I CANNOT LET THE GAS AUTO FILL OR IT WILL "SPLASH OUT" WHEN IT CLICKS OFF. I HAVE TO WATCH IT FILL AND SHUT OFF AT 16.5 GALLONS OR LESS IF COMPLETELY EMPTY OR I'LL HAVE A MESS ON MY HANDS.

FROM THE TIME I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I CALLED WHEN FIRST RECEIVED THE RECALL, THEN AGAIN IN JUNE AND SPOKE TO A JENNIFER, STATED THAT THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER AND THAT I WAS IN THE 100 AND THEY WERE ON 30. I ASKED WHAT I SHOULD DO DURING THE WAITING TIME AND SHE SAID TO TRY NOT TO GET HIT. I CALLED AGAIN THE BEGINNING OF SEPTEMBER AND JENNIFER STATED THAT I SHOULD RECEIVE A PART OR CALL IN A FEW DAYS. IT IS NOW SEPTEMBER 14 AND I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT FIXING OR SETTING UP AN APPOINTMENT FOR FIXING THE JEEP. I HAVE THREE CHILDREN THAT RIDE IN MY JEEP, I DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE IT, ALL I CAN DO IS PRAY THAT I DO NOT GET HIT FROM BEHIND ONE DAY AND CAUSE THE GAS EXPLOSION THAT COULD OCCUR DO TO MANUFACTURING ISSUES.

ON SEPTEMBER 2, 2015 I BROUGHT MY 2006 JEEP LIBERTY IN TO A DEALERSHIP, BENSON CHRYSLER, IN GREER SC FOR A REAR STRUCTURE REINFORCEMENT RECALL REPAIR. AFTER BEING LEFT AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 4.5 HOURS, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL REPAIR COULD NOT BE COMPLETED DUE TO A LARGE AMOUNT OF RUST ON THE BOLTS. I WAS TOLD BY THE MANAGER, BRAD THAT MORE THAN ONE TECHNICIAN LOOK AT THE CAR AND DETERMINED IT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP IN DESPAIR WITH MAJOR CONCERN BECAUSE THE RECALL INVOLVES A CHANCE OF THE JEEP FUEL TANK LEAKING DURING A REAR END COLLISION WHICH COULD RESULT IN A FIRE. NOW AS A MOTHER AND WIFE I CANNOT IMAGINE CONTINUING TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE KNOWING THE AT ANY GIVEN TIME I COULD LOSE MY CAR AND POSSIBLY THE LIFE OF ME AND MY FAMILY. PLEASE HELP ME BY ADDRESSING THE ISSUE OF HOW CHRYSLER PLAN TO HANDLE THIS RECALL. I STRONGLY FEEL IT SHOULD NOT BE IGNORED BY SUGGESTING ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT POSE SUCH A GREAT DANGER . YOUR ATTENTION IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. UPDATED 11/02/15.*JB

2006 JEEP LIBERTY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO GAS TANK RECALL ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED HE HAS BEEN GETTING THE RUN-A-AROUND FROM CHRYSLER WITH TRYING TO GET THE RECALL PERFORMED.

ABS, BAS/ESP, TCS INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATE, VEHICLE LOSES POWER, BRAKES ARE APPLIED ( MOST LIKELY RIGHT FRONT AS CAR PULLS TO RIGHT) RELEASING THROTTLE CANCELS THE BRAKING. AS THROTTLE IS REAPPLIED SAME ACTION IS REPEATED. SO FAR IT HAS ONLY OCCURRED AT SPEEDS< 35 MPH. SHOULD IT OCCUR IN SLIPPERY ROAD CONDITIONS IT MOST LIKELY RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL.IN RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET, IT SEEMS TO BE OR IS BECOMING A MORE COMMON OCCURENCE WHICH FCA IS NOT ADDRESSING. IF YOU READ THE OTHER COMPLAINT OF THE SAME PROBLEM IT DATES BACK A FEW YEARS, YET THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANYTHING DONE TO CORRECT IT. SOME COMPLAINANTS SAY THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO HAVE IT CORRECTED EVEN AT JEEP DEALERSHIPS, OTHERS REPORT IT'S SOMETHING CALLED THE CLOCK SPRING THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM AND THE PARTS TO REPAIR IT AREN'T AVAILABLE. HAVING JUST RECENTLY HAD FCA'S GAS TANK SOLUTION CORRECTED, I HOPE A FIX FOR THIS WON'T TAKE AS LONG. I NEGLECTED TO SAY THIS WAS NOT A ONE-TIME EVENT IN AS MUCH AS IT HAPPENS NOW ON AN ALMOST DAILY BASIS. A LOCAL SHOP CHECKED FOR FAULT CODES BUT THERE WERE NONE IN MEMORY; I HAVE IT SCHEDULED FOR FURTHER TESTS 09/16/2015.

LEFT REAR WINDOW FELL WITH A LOUD BANG. CAR HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD AND GARAGED. MILEAGE AROUND 30,000. DEALER FIXED IT FOR A CHARGE OF $550.00. I HAVE BEEN ON LINE AND FIND THAT THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM BECAUSE OF DEFECT IN THE WINDOW CONTROLLER. THIS IS A DEFECT AND IT IS WRONG FOR CUSTOMERS TO BE SADDLED FINANCIALLY WITH THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, AN ABNORMAL SOUND EMITTED FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE LOWER BALL JOINT AND FRONT DRIVER SIDE LOWER BALL JOINTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V288000 (SUSPENSION). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

THE PAIN ON THE OUTSIDE ROOF IS PEELING, I DO LIVE IN A STATE WHERE THE ROADS ARE SALTED HOWEVER, THERE IS NO SALT USED ON THE TOP OF THE VEHICLE, THIS, WHILE NOT A NEW VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE PEELING THE WAY IT IS. THE FRONT WINDSHIELD HAD A SEVERE CHIP & THE INSTALLER WAS BARELY ABLE TO SAND THIS AREA DOWN ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO SEAL THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH & THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ALONG WITH THE REAR WINDOW REGULATORS BOTH OF WHICH HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED. THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THE EMERGENCY BREAK & THE JEEP DEALERSHIP GIVES ONE REASON FOR THE ABS, ESP AMONG OTHER WHEEL AND BREAKING ISSUES. AND NOW THE ONE THING THAT JEEP IS FINALLY SUPPOSED TO BE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT RATHER THAN ME HAVING TO PUT MORE MONEY INTO THIS VEHICLE FOR, THE GAS TANK RECALL SEEMS TO BE A RIDICULOUS FIX, AND I HAVE BEEN ON A WAITING LIST FOR THIS FOR MONTHS AND STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET IT IN TO GET THIS FIXED. I SAW A NEWS STORY THAT SAID THAT CHRYSLER WAS BEING MANDATED TO FIX THESE VERY POORLY MADE VEHICLES. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE DOES NOT FALL INTO THE OTHER RECALLS WHEN IT HAS BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. I HAVE BEEN HAVING BREAKING SYSTEM ISSUES AS LONG BACK AS 13 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, I TRIED TO OPERATE FRONT LEFT AND RIGHT REAR WINDOWS AND THEY WOULD NOT ROLL UP OR DOWN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY REPAIRED BOTH. HOWEVER, SINCE THEN THERE HAVE BEEN 7 MORE INSTANCES ON ALL WINDOWS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. CURRENTLY, THE BACK PASSENGER WINDOW IS NOT OPERATING AND THE DEALER REFUSES TO REPAIR IT BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS A NEWLY OPENED DODGE, CHRYSLER, JEEP DEALER IN MY TOWN. THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE MANY PROBLEMS I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH THIS JEEP LIBERTY, INCLUDING THE PCM IS CURRENTLY NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY MAKING THE VEHICLE IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE. AT MY WIT'S END WITH THIS VEHICLE.

MY DAUGHTERS FRONT WHEEL BROKE LOOSE FROM HER CAR WHILE TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT. THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL CAME OFF ABOUT 2 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE LEFT WHEEL COMING OFF. BOTH SIDES HAD BROKEN LOWER BALL JOINTS. JEEP DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE CAR WAS NOT COVERED SINCE THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THIS VEHICLE. IF THIS HAD HAPPEN GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE OR HIGHWAY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A DISASTER. THE CAR HAD TO BE REPAIR ONSITE, BECAUSE BOTH TIMES THE WRECKER COMPANY SAID IT MAY DAMAGE THE FINDER IF MOVED.

AFTER PUTTING MY FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DOWN COMPLETELY, IT WILL NOT GO BACK UP. THE MOTOR RUNS, IT MAKES A SOUND, BUT WINDOW DOES NOT MOVE. I WAS FORCED TO LEAVE MY CAR PARKED IN A MEDICAL CENTER PARKING GARAGE DURING MY WORK SHIFT 4:00PM TO 12:00AM. OF COURSE, IT WAS COMPLETELY UNSAFE FOR ME, A YOUNG FEMALE, TO RETURN TO MY OPEN CAR AND HAD TO BE ESCORTED BY A SECURITY OFFICER. I THEN DROVE THE 25 FREEWAY MILES HOME COMPLETELY EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS. HAVING GOOGLED THE MALFUNCTION, I LEARNED THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2006 JEEP LIBERTY AND IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. I AM ASTOUNDED TO ALSO LEARN THAT CHRYSLER DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS MECHANICAL FAILURE. AS A COLLEGE STUDENT, I AM NOT FINANCIALLY ABLE TO INCUR THIS EXPENSE, NOR DO I THINK I SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO, AND AM ASKING THAT CHRYSLER PERFORM REPAIRS ON ALL FOUR WINDOWS AT NOT COST TO ME. PLEASE ADVISE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. *TR
