DURING REFILLING OF THE FUEL TANK, THE FUEL SHUTOFF MECHANISM DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY AND FUEL ALWAYS OVERFLOWS ONTO THE GROUND. RESEARCH REVEALS THAT PROBLEMS OF THIS TYPE ARE KNOWN TO BE CAUSED IN JEEPS OF THIS YEAR BY THE INLET CHECK VALVE (ICV). THE RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE IN JEEP WRANGLERS SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE JEEP LIBERTY MODELS. *TR

A LARGE NOISE FOLLOWED BY DETERIORATED CONTROL STEERING MY VEHICLE. AFTER FORCING IT INTO A PARKING LOT, A VIEW OF UNDERNEATH FRONT DRIVERS SIDE REVEALED A LARGE METAL OBJECT BROKEN AND JAMMED INTO MY WHEEL. THIS SOUNDS LIKE THE RECALL #09E039000 OR RECALL ID # 91163. LOCAL DEALERSHIP STATES MY VIN IS NOT IN THIS RECALL AND CANNOT FIX IT UNDER THE RECALL. MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR OF VEHICLE MATCHES THE RECALL AND I THINK THIS CALLS FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO ADDITIONAL VEHICLES. *TR
THE JEEP DEALER(MINOT CHRYSLER CENTER) SAYS THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THIS RECALL....I HAVE WENT THERE TWICE SINCE I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL ON AUGUST 2014. *TR

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THIS JEEP LIBERTY FIRST OF ALL AND I LOVE IT, BUT IT IS DANGEROUS! I CAN'T FILL THE GAS TANK ON MY JEEP LIBERTY WITH OUT IT SPEWING BACK OUT. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED GAS WAS ALL ON THE GROUND AT THE GAS STATION. IT GOT ALL OVER MY HANDS AND PAINTS LEG AND BURNED MY SKIN. I WAS OUT OF TOWN AND DIDN'T HAVE AN EXTRA PAIR OF PANTS TO CHANGE INTO. ALL I COULD DO IS PULL OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT AND TRY TO CLEAN MY SKIN IN THE RESTROOM. NOW I HAVE TO HOLD MY EAR DOWN TO THE GAS NOZZLE TO HEAR THE TANK FILLING UP. MY HUSBAND CAN'T HEAR WELL SO I CAN'T LET HIM FUEL THE LIBERTY. OUT OF FEAR OF GAS GETTING ON OTHERS AND ON THE GROUND, I AM THE ONLY ONE THAT FUELS THE TANK. CHRYSLER WILL NOT REPLACE THE GAS TANK BECAUSE IT SHOWS NO PROBLEM UNDER MY VIN NUMBER. THIS IS A PUBLIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY PROBLEM WITH GASOLINE ON PEOPLE AND ALL OVER THE GROUND! I NEED THIS TANK REPLACED, JUST THUNK ABOUT IT....1/2 GALLON OF GASOLINE ON THE GROUND FOR EVERY OTHER JEEP LIBERTY LIKE MINE OUT THERE. I TALKED WITH JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE AGAIN TODAY AND WAS STILL DENIED. *TR

3 TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE SAW MILL PARKWAY THIS MORNING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, WHILE COMING TO A STOP THE VEHICLE STARTED TO ACCELERATE OUT OF CONTROL. THE BRAKES COULD NOT CONTROL IT. THE FIRST TIME I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE REVERTED TO IDLE SPEED AND I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE NORMALLY. A FEW MILES LATER IT DID IT AGAIN AS I WAS COMING TO A STOP IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THIS TIME WHEN I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL THE ENGINE RACED AT FULL SPEED AS IF IT WAS BEING FLOORED. I HAD TO TURN OFF THE KEY. WHEN I RESTARTED THE ENGINE IT RAN FINE FOR A FEW MILES UNTIL I WAS EXITING THE HIGHWAY. AGAIN WHEN I SLOWED TO A STOP THE ENGINE RACED AT FULL REVS. GOING INTO NEUTRAL DID NOT HELP. TURNING OFF THE KEY FIXED IT. AT THE END OF THE DAY AFTER WORK THE VEHICLE BEHAVED NORMALLY. THIS JEEP HAS DONE THIS 3 TIMES IN THE PAST, IN JANUARY 2009, FEB 2012 AND OCTOBER 2014. *TR

MY AIR BAG LIGHT INDICATOR ACTIVATED, AND AT THE SAME TIME MY HORN STOPPED WORKING! AFTER HAVING IT CHECKED OUT BY A REPAIR SHOP, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY IS THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THIS ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MALFUNCTION OF AIR BAGS IN OTHER 2006 JEEP LIBERTY'S; HOWEVER, RECALLS OF THIS PROBLEM APPLY TO OTHER VIN NUMBERS (BEGINNING WITH THE LETTER K). I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY A JEEP DEALERSHIP THAT THE COST OF REPAIRS WILL EXCEED $400.00, AND THAT MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY'S ARE THAT MUCH DIFFERENT AMONGST THE DIFFERENT VIN NUMBERS? I AM HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS, AND IN THE MEANTIME I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IN ADDITION TO HAVING NO HORN THAT MY AIR BAGS WOULD NOT EMPLOY IN THE EVENT THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO BE KILLED IN A VEHICLE FOR ANOTHER VIN NUMBER TO BE CHECKED OUT ON THE CURRENT LISTING? *JS

WHEN FILLING UP MY GAS TANK, THE FUEL WILL SPIT BACK OUT. THIS HAPPENS AT THE BEGINNING, MIDDLE, OR END OF WHEN I'M FUELING UP. IT'S MORE LIKE A GEYSER OF FUEL SPILLING BACK AT ME THAT GETS ALL OVER ME, THE CAR, AND MOST DANGEROUSLY, ALL OVER THE GROUND OF THE GAS STATION. IT HAPPENS NEARLY EVERY TIME I FILL UP. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I AM AT, OR HOW I'M POSITIONING THE HOSE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR, BUT HAS GOTTEN INCREASINGLY WORSE RECENTLY. VERY DANGEROUS, FRIGHTENING, AND BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. *TR
WHEN PUSHED TO SPEED UP AT A FAST RATE AND UPON APPROACHING 65MPH OR FASTER THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES SLOWLY. MY MECHANIC FOUND THE CODE READER SAYING A MISFIRE WAS HAPPENING. WHEN THAT LIGHT FLASHES IT STARTS TO SHAKE PRETTY BAD. DETERMINED THAT CYLINDER 1 HAS LOW COMPRESSION. ONLY WAY TO FIND OUT FOR SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT IS TO TEAR DOWN THE MOTOR WHICH I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY FOR THAT. SAD HOW WAISTFUL PEOPLE ARE FORCED TO BE WITH VEHICLES. ITS STILL PRETTY NEW!! WE TOOK GOOD CARE OF THIS JEEP MAINTAINING IT CORRECTLY SINCE WE GOT IT WITH ONLY 37K MILES AND HAS NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS TILL NOW. SO THIS WAS A SHOCK! BEFORE 37K MILES I AM NOT AWARE OF THIS PARTICULAR JEEP'S ENGINE REPAIR HISTORY. ALSO THIS SAME JEEP HAD THE CLOGGED FUEL LINE CAUSING THE TANK TO SPILL OUT WHILE FUELING UP WHEN IT WAS NOT FULL YET. *TR

CHRYSLER CASE NUMBER [XXX] JEEP LIBERTYOWNER [XXX]: BROUGHT JEEP VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP (BEDARD BROTHERS MA.) IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR. VEHICLE FAILED INSPECTION (SAFETY/AIRBAG). DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A CLOCK SPRING REPLACEMENT. CHRYSLER IS UNABLE TO REPLACE THIS PART (WAITING @1 YEAR). UNABLE TO PERFORM REPAIR TO VEHICLE BECAUSE CLOCK SPRING PART IS UNAVAILABLE - CAN'T BE FOUND ANYWHERE - CHRYSLER PROCUREMENT FAILURE. CAR IS UN-DRIVABLE. THIS VEHICLE IS ONE OF FOUR HUNDRED ACROSS THE COUNTRY WAITING FOR THIS PART. RECEIVED ABSOLUTELY NO ASSISTANCE FROM CHRYSLER OR DEALERSHIP. HAD TO SCRAP CAR. LOST A LOT OF MONEY. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
THE LOWER CONTROL ARM AND BALL JOINT FAILED PER F 23 RECALL OF JEEP CHRYSLER AND DAMAGED THE TIRE AND RIM WHICH HAD TO BE REPLACED. WE FILED A CLAIM WITH CHRYSLER CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE ON AUG 20, 2014 AND THEY WERE PROCESSING IT AND TOLD US THEY WOULD REIMBURSE THE $1146.83 NOT LATER THAN OCT 20, 2014. WE HAD NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM CCASSISTANCE SO WE TELEPHONED TODAY. BRAD, THE AGENT, COULD NOT FIND ANY RECORD AND ALSO SAID THAT THE RECALL WAS COMPLETED AND THAT THERE WOULD NOT BE ANY REIMBURSEMENT TO US FOR THE REPAIRS WE HAD TO MAKE. THAT IS NOT IN ACCORD WITH THE RECALL AND FURTHERMORE, THE LOWER CONTROL ARM AND BALL JOINTS FAILED AGAIN ON AUGUST 18, 2014 AND THE SAFFORD CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE OF SPRINGFIELD VIRGINIA REPLACED THE CONTROL ARMS AND BALL JOINTS ON BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE UNDER A F23 RECALL WARRANTY AT NO CHARGE TO US. WE REQUEST THAT NHTSA CONTACT CHRYSLER AND REQUIRE THEM TO REIMBURSE US FOR THE $1146.83 WHICH WE PAID OUT OF POCKET. *TR
WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE, FUEL COMES SPLASHING OUT OF THE FILLER NECK ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND POSSIBLY ANYONE STANDING TOO CLOSE. I FEEL THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS THE AMOUNT OF FUEL AND VAPORS SPLASHED OUT IS A BIG FIRE RISK. DOES SOMEONE NEED TO BE BADLY BURNT OR KILLED BEFORE THIS GETS FIXED? *TR

IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE NHTSA THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH JEEP VEHICLES THAT WHEN FUELING UP THE GAS TANK A GEYSER OF GASOLINE WILL ERUPT FROM THE TANK UPON "COMPLETION" OF FILLING THE TANK. COVERING THE CAR, THE INDIVIDUAL FILLING THE TANK, THE GROUND, AND ANYONE ELSE WITHIN A CERTAIN VICINITY IN GASOLINE, A HIGHLY FLAMMABLE LIQUID. CHRYSLER HAS A HISTORY OF THIS ISSUE WITH THEIR VEHICLES. IN 2009, 45,000 CARS WERE RECALLED FOR IT. CURRENTLY, CHRYSLER HAS AGREED TO "INITIATE A LIFETIME WARRANTY PROGRAM" TO ADDRESS THIS VERY ISSUE IN 135,000 JEEPS MANUFACTURED IN 2007 AND 2008. LEAVING ALL OTHER JEEP OWNERS WITH THIS ISSUE TO CONTINUE RISKING THEIR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS BY GETTING CONTINUALLY DOUSED IN GASOLINE. RECENTLY, CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL FOR 430,000 JEEPS BECAUSE OF A WEAKNESS IN THE GAS TANK THAT CAN BURST INTO FLAME IN THE EVENT OF A REAR END COLLISION. SO THEY KNOW THEIR GAS TANKS ARE WEAK! THIS LATEST RECALL ADMITS TO IT. SO WHY THE DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THE REST OF US JEEP OWNERS WITH FAULTY INLET CHECK VALVES? WHERE IS JUSTICE, AND CONCERN FOR OUR SAFETY? *TR

WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS OF THE JEEP LIBERTY 2006 THAT HAD A RECALL ON THE BALL JOINTS AND STABILIZER BARS IN 2006. OF COURSE, WE HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED WHEN THE JEEP WAS ONLY A FEW MONTHS OLD. IT MAY HAVE HAD LESS THAN 1000 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME. WHEN VISITING THE DEALER ON DEC 2, 2014 FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE BALANCE. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE BALL JOINTS ON DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE OF JEEP WERE IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT AT A COST OF 1100.00 (WE ONLY HAVE 61,600 MILES ON JEEP) I WAS SHOCKED THAT A VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT AND ONLY DRIVEN BY THE MOM OF THE FAMILY AROUND TOWN OF ABOUT 6000 MILES A YEAR COULD INCUR SUCH A DRASTIC PROBLEM. THIS IS A VALID SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE INTEGRITY OF THE RECALL. THE REPAIR SHOULD HAVE A LIFETIME WARRANTY OR AT LEAST 100K MILES. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY, THESE BALL JOINTS DISINTEGRATED WITHOUT BEING FAULTY FROM THE BEING. MY QUESTION LIES IF MY VEHICLE WAS REALLY TAKEN CARE OF, OR WAS IT JUST LOOKED AT BECAUSE IT WAS BRAND NEW AT THE TIME. OUR LIBERTY HAS HAD FULL SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGES AND TREATED WITH THE UTMOST CARE. SO IT REALLY SADDENS ME THAT CHRYSLER HAS SUCH "SAFETY" ISSUES. OF ALL THINGS THAT CAN GO WRONG WITH A CAR, WHEN IT REFERS TO A PREVIOUS RECALL, IT'S OBVIOUS THE ISSUE WAS NEVER REALLY ADDRESSED. *JS

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN AUGUST 2014 REGARDING THE FUEL TANK ON MY CAR. IT HAS TAKEN UNTIL TODAY TO GET THE PART AT THE DEALERSHIP, JONES OF BEL AIR. SOME OF THE BLAME IS DUE TO THE PARTS NOT BEING AVAILABLE AND THAT JONES DID NOT CONTACT ME WHEN THE PARTS CAME IN, AS THEY SAID THEY WOULD. I BELIEVE THIS HAS PLACED ME AT RISK OF HARM DUE TO THE FUEL TANK LEAK THAT COULD CAUSE A FIRE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION. *TR

I HAVE TWO (2) JEEP LIBERTY'S BOTH 2006 (1) RENEGADE, & (1) SPORT, BOTH VEHICLES HAVE HAD THE WINDOW REGULATOR'S FAIL, (2) - WINDOW REGULATOR'S FAILED ON THE RENEGADE, (1) ON THE DRIVER'S FRONT SIDE WINDOW, THE REGULATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED ON 02/12/11 & AGAIN (1) ON THE DRIVER'S REAR WINDOW, THE REGULATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED ON 05/18/12 THIS WAS ON THE 2006 JEEP RENEGADE. (2) - WINDOW REGULATOR'S FAILED, ON THE JEEP SPORT, (1) ON THE DRIVER'S REAR WINDOW, THE WINDOW REGULATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED ON 09/19/11 & (1) WINDOW REGULATOR AGAIN ON THE SAME WINDOW ON 10/08/14 NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, THE SAME WINDOW REGULATOR NEEDED TO BE FIXED TWICE WITHIN THREE YEARS & 20 DAYS, THE DEALER WOULD NOT FIX THE WINDOW UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE IT WAS OVER THE EXP. DATE BY 20 DAYS, WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE WINDOW REGULATORS BECAUSE IT'S A PLASTIC PART AND THAT'S WHY IT KEEPS FAILING, THAT'S JUST BULL I HAVE SPENT OVER 1200.00 DOLLARS ON REPAIRS ON WINDOWS REGULATOR'S ALONE & IT'S THE SAME PART EACH TIME ALL 4-WINDOWS, I USED TO BE A GREAT FAN OF JEEP, I'VE OWNED JEEPS FOR (20) YEARS NOW, BUT I HAVE BECOME REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH MY VEHICLE'S, THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING AT 65 MPH WHEN THE WINDOW SUDDENLY OPENED, THE WIND RIPPED THROUGH MY VEHICLE STARTED TO BLOW THINGS AROUND SO BAD THAT I HAD TO PULL OVER AND TAPE MY WINDOW UP SO I COULD MAKE IT HOME, AND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE, ALOT OF JEEP LIBERTY OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THEM AND HAD TO REPLACE THE WINDOW
I PURCHASED WHAT APPEARED TO BE A WELL MAINTAINED 2006 JEEP FROM A LOCAL REPUTABLE DEALER AT A COST OVER OF 10 GRAND ON 10/3/14. THE FIRST TANK FILL UP THE GAS OVERFLOWED OUT OF THE TANK. THERE WAS NO "STOP" THE GAS JUST CAME OUT. I ASKED THE CASHIER IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE GAS PUMP AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW. SO, THE NEXT GAS FILL UP A WEEK LATER, THE GAS SHOT OUT OF THE TANK THIS TIME. STILL NO WARNING TO STOP FILLING THE TANK WITH A GAS "STOP". I CONTACTED THE DEALER, WHO COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING MECHANICALLY WRONG WITH THE TANK, AND HAD TO PAY FOR AND SEND THE CAR TO A LOCAL JEEP DEALER FOR REPAIR. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, THEY REPLACED THE GAS TANK. ALBEIT I RECEIVED THE CAR BACK WITH LESS GAS THAN I HAD LEFT IT WITH. TOOK THE CAR HOME, FILED THE CAR ON FRIDAY 11/7/14 AND THE GAS MECHANISM DID STOP THE GAS, BUT ONLY AFTER GAS LEAKED OUT FROM THE GAS TANK AGAIN, AND THEY NEVER EVEN TESTED THE CAR TO MAKE SURE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN! AS I FOUND OUT LATER, THEY REPLACED THE TANK WITH A USED TANK. I AM INCREDULOUS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. MY DEALER IS GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE, I HOPE. AND IF IT IS NOT FIXABLE, I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP OR CHRYSLER PRODUCT! FROM WHAT I AM READING ON THE WEB NO ONE IS LISTENING TO US JEEP OWNERS. THANKFULLY I HAVE A SMALL WARRANTY PERIOD THAT COVERS THIS ISSUE, BUT I IMPLORE YOU TO REOPEN THIS ISSUE. I CAN ATTEST THIS IS NOT INTERNET HYPE. I HAVE WORKED HARD FOR MOST OF MY LIFE AND FEEL AS A CONSUMER I AM BEING TAKEN ADVANTA

THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT YET. WE HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING TO SCHEDULE A RECALL APPOINTMENT FOR SIX MONTHS WITH JEEP/CHRYSLER.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
