Subject: Inquiry Regarding Ball Joint and Control Arm Issues on My 2007 Jeep Liberty Dear support tech, I am writing to express my concerns regarding recurring issues with my 2007 Jeep Liberty, specifically with the driver-side ball joint and control arm. In 2019, I had the driver-side ball joint replaced at Firestone. However, on [XXX], I experienced a serious issue when the wheel became stuck while reversing out of a parking space. Fortunately, it occurred at low speed, and the vehicle was towed through my insurance. A family member was able to fix it temporarily. More recently, on February 25, 2025, I had new wheels installed at Firestone, where I was informed that there is an issue with both the front control arm and the left and right ball joints. Given that I don’t drive at high speeds and use the vehicle less frequently now, this seems unusual and concerning. I’ve seen reports about similar issues with same model and year (Reddit, jeep forums). Could this be a recurring problem specific to the Liberty model as I have seen there’s a recall for 2002-2006? I genuinely love my vehicle, but I’m growing frustrated with the ongoing repairs and costs. I would appreciate your insight into whether this is a known issue and what steps I can take to resolve it permanently. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

As of this morning, I’ve had both ball joints on the front suspension snap, making the vehicle undrivable.

Many Jeep vehicles have gas blow back during refueling. This problem has existed for a number of years and Jeep has issued recalls. Please read the following: If each Jeep user spills .1 gallon during refueling and they refuel the Jeep 12 times per year they spill 1.2 gallons per year. This is a very low estimate. If there are 100,000 Jeeps experiencing this problem that is 120,000 gallons of gas per year. Does anyone at NHTSA care?

12/8/2020: MY DAUGHTER HAD JUST RETURNED HOME FROM COLLEGE LITERALLY THAT MORNING DRIVING THROUGH NYC TO DE. THAT AFTERNOON SHE WENT OUT TO SEE A FRIEND AND THOUGHT SHE HAD A FLAT TIRE WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 50 MPH AND STRUGGLED TO PULL OVER. IT WAS AT NIGHT SO WE COULDN'T SEE THE DAMAGE. WE CALLED AAA TO COME CHANGE THE TIRE. HE EXAMINED THE FLUID UNDER THE TIRE AND THEN IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT TIRE ROD FELL AND PUNCTURED THE TIRE. WE COULD ALSO SEE A LONG BLACK TRAIL WHERE THE TIRE ROD DRAGGED ON THE ROAD BEFORE SHE COULD STOP. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID IF SHE DIDN'T STOP WHEN SHE DID SHE WOULD HAVE FELL INTO THE DEEP DITCH NEXT TO IT AND IT WOULD HAVE FLIPPED OVER. CONSIDERING IT WAS DARK SHE WAS LUCKY AND EVEN LUCKIER THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY IN NYC ONLY A FEW HOURS EARLIER. BUT WHAT WAS EVEN MORE DISTURBING IS THE FRONT UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL ARMS WERE JUST REPLACE THE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARMS DUE TO CORROSION WAS DONE AT THE DEALER, ALONG WITH AN ALIGNMENT. (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V278000). IT'S CLEAR THAT THE RECALL SHOULD ALSO INCLUDE REPLACING THE FRONT CONTROL ARMS. THE WINDOW REGULATOR ALSO FAILED THE WEEK BEFORE.

POOR PERFORMANCE FROM THE FRONT END SUSPENSION MAKING TURNING THE CAR DANGEROUS.

VEHICLE WAS ON THE OFF RAMP OF THE HIGHWAY WHEN A LOUD BANG WAS HEARD AND FRONT LEFT TIRE WENT FLAT. WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SHOULDER AND STOP. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, THE TIRE WAS FLAT DUE TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE LOWER BALL JOINT SEPARATED AND THE BOLT OF THE LOWER BALL JOINT ON THE LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS DRIVEN INTO THE INSIDE OF THE RIM AND PUNCTURING A HOLE INTO THE RIM. HAD THIS HAPPENED A FEW SECONDS EARLIER, WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, IT COULD HAVE HAD CATASTROPHIC RESULTS, CAUSING A CRASH, PERSONAL INJURY OR EVEN DEATH.

SINCE THE DAY I GOT THE VEHICLE I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS IT SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD LOCK UP AND ALL LIGHTS ON DASH WOULD LIGHT UP. TURN THE KEY OFF WAIT A MINUTE AND IT WOULD START BACK UP. GROUND WIRE ISSUE, THE DRIVER WINDOW STOPPED WORKING 2X ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. THE POWER SIDE MIRROR DOESNT WORK IT.

THE RADIATOR FAN STOPPED WORKING, WATER PUMP BROKEN. THE AC COMPRESSOR AND CLUTCH WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING. IF I LEAVE THE CLIMATE KNOBS TURN ON WHILE VEHICLE NOT IN USE IT DRAINS THE BATTERY, ( THE FORM WOULDN'T ALLOW ME TO CLICK ANY MORE BOXES) I'VE HAD IT TOWED, I BELIEVE THIS WAS A LEMON AND SHOULDN'T OF EVEN BEEN SOLD

I GOT A RECLL NOTICE FOR THE GAS TANK MIGHT LEAK IF HIT FROM BEHIND I HAVE TRIED OVER 4 TIMES TO GET IT FIXED THE DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME THEY DO HAVE THE PARTS .

I HAD A RECALL REPAIR AFTER I RECEIVED THE LETTER IN THE MAIL SO I WENT AND HAD IT SERVICED AFTER I WAITED FOR THE BACKORDER. I HAD THE REAR LOWER SUSPENSION ARMS DONE AS IN THE RECALL AT SECRET CITY DODGE IN OAK RIDGE TN. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A WEIRD CREAKING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR AND I TOOK IT BACK AND EXPLAINED TO THEM AND THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING. I BROUGHT IT TO ANOTHER SHOP AND HAD THEM INSPECT AND THEY SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T TORQUE THEM RIGHT AND THE NOISE WAS FROM FAULTY PARTS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY AGAIN SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG AND THEY SPRAYED SOME LUBRICANT ON THE BUSHINGS TO QUIET THE NOISE. IT DIDN'T DO ANYTHING AND MADE ME QUESTION WHY THEY HAD TO DO THAT IF THE PARTS WERE NEW. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND THEY AGAIN SENT ME DOWN THE ROAD. WELL AS TIME WENT ON I WAS HAVING MORE PROBLEMS WITH STEERING AND HAVE BEEN TO TO OTHER SHOPS AND HAD BALL JOINTS ALL REPLACED AND EVERY SHOP SAID THAT THE REAR SUSPENSION ARMS WERE NOT GOOD AND I JUST WENT TODAY (JAN 23,2020) AND AND IT LOOKED AT BY A LOCAL REPUTABLE SHOP WHERE I LIVE BECAUSE THE STEERING IS OUT OF CONTROL.. THEY SHOWED ME IN THE BAY WITH MY CAR UP AND THE BACK WHEELS MOVE FORWARD AND BACKWARD BECAUSE OF THE BAD BUSHINGS IN THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS THAT WERE REPLACED BY SECRET CITY DEALERSHIP.

ALL THE LIGHTS PERTAINING TO THE BREAK ABS AND STABILITY CONTROLS ARE ON.

BUT NOTHING COMES UP ON THIS SITE

VEHICLE WAS DRIVING NORMALLY AND WAS IN MOTION GOING STRAIGHT LEAVING A PARKING LOT AND THE FRONT SUSPENSION LOWER CONTROL ARM JUST BROKE WITHOUT WARNING DUE TO CORROSION. THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CONTROL ARM LANDED ONTO THE WHEEL MAKING IT SO THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL COULD NO LONGER TURN. I'M GLAD IT HAPPENED TO ME IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON THE HIGHWAY OR I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED.

ON OCT 4, 2019, AS I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH ON A DRY, SMOOTH ROAD, MY DRIVER'S SIDE LOWER FRONT BALL JOINT FAILED. THE FRONT OF MY CAR DROPPED AS A RESULT, AND I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. I DID NOT STRIKE ANY OTHER VEHICLE OR BARRIER OF ANY KIND.

THE TWO FRONT WINDOWS DO NOT GO UP RIGHT IN THE JEEP AND GET STUCK AND GO UP SIDEWAYS. THE PASSENGER FRONT WINDOWS CAN NOT BE PUT DOWN FAR OR A CORD WILL COME UP FROM UNDER THE WINDOW. SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM IN THIS MAKE OF JEEPS.

FUEL OVERFLOWS & DOESN'T SHUT OFF WHEN FULL! EVERY TIME WE PUT FUEL INTO THE CAR, IT WILL NOT ALLOW THE PUMP TO SHUT OFF WHEN THE TANK BECOMES FULL-NO MATTER HOW SLOW ONE FILLS THE TANK, IT CREATES A FUEL BURP AND POURS GASOLINE OUT & DOWN THE VEHICLE. ALL OF US, INCLUDING OUR YOUNG DRIVER, NEED TO BE EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS WHEN AT A GAS STATION. VERY VERY UNSAFE COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS!
