ON 3/29/13 THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP RECEIVED A LONER AND THEY CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY SAYING THE CAR WAS FIXED. THEY CONDUCTED: 1) MULTI-POINT INSPECTION, 2) REPLACED THE ORC MODULE, STATED 3) THAT THERE WAS IN FACT AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WHICH WAS AN INTERNAL FAILURE IN THE VEHICLE. NHTSA HAS NOW FORCED THE MANUFACTURER TO ISSUE A RECALL AND IN THE NOTICE, ALL THE NOTICE STATES AS A REMEDY IS REPETITIVE OF THE WORK THE WORK DONE ON THE VEHICLE IN MARCH. IN ADDITION, IF THE MANUFACTURER DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS AS STATED IN THE NOTICE, HOW COULD THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM IN MARCH THEN? MY VEHICLE IS DEFECTIVE AND NO ONE HAS COME FORWARD TO REASSURE ME THAT UPON COLLISION THE AIRBAGS WILL DEPLOY AND THERE WON'T BE ANY SUCH MECHANICAL FAILURE AS STATED IN THE RECALL. *TR

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, HE ACCELERATED AND MERGED INTO ANOTHER LANE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WOULD NOT DISENGAGE. THE CONTACT PULLED THE FLOOR MAT AND REMOVED IT FROM THE FLOOR BOARD AND NOTICED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAD DROPPED TO THE FLOOR BOARD. THE RPM READING CONTINUED TO INCREASE AS THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE CONTACT THEN KICKED THE PEDAL VARIOUS TIMES UNTIL THE PEDAL DISENGAGED. THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE TIMES.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,000. *TR

I STARTED MY 2012 JEEP LIBERTY 4 DAYS AGO AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYED ON. WHY WOULD A 2012 JEEP HAVE THIS PROBLEM, I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WHEN IT HAD 29,538 MILES ON IT. IT NOW HAS 39,300 MILES ON IT, SO IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND MY EXTENDED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THIS ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG. I DON'T HAVE THE $95 TO DIAGNOSIS THIS ISSUE, THE $95 IS ONLY FOR DIAGNOSIS. I HOPE THERE WILL BE A RECALL OR SOMETHING FOR THIS ISSUE SOON. AS OF RIGHT NOW, I HAVE NO AIRBAG SYSTEM. *TR

WHILE DRIVING CAR, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. INSTRUCTIONS IN OWNER'S MANUAL STATES TO TAKE TO DEALER IMMEDIATELY FOR REPAIR. CALLED DEALER AND HAVE APPOINTMENT ON AUGUST 12. *TR

AFTER STARTING MY VEHICLE AND PUTTING IT INTO REVERSE, MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. IT IS NOW STAYING ON SOLID AND IS NOT BLINKING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY JEEP, AND THEY TOLD ME TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AND THEY COULD GET ME IN TO MAKE SURE IT IS NOT AN ISSUE OF A RABBIT OR A RODENT CHEWING UP THE WIRES, AND THEN THEY WILL DECIDE IF ITS A SAFETY ISSUE. BUT IN THE MEANTIME ALL IN ONE BREATH, THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE. THERE WAS NOT, AND HAS NOT BEEN ANYTHING IN MY PASSENGER SEAT SINCE ALMOST 24 HOURS AGO. *TR

TURNED THE CAR ON AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. STAYED ON THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS DRIVING. *TR

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES MOMENTARY LOSS OF POWER DURING NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING. DEALERSHIP AND MANUFACTURER REPRESENTATIVE BOTH AGREE THERE IS A PROBLEM, BUT DO NOT KNOW HOW TO REPAIR AND REFUSE TO DO ANY REPAIRS. THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSES THE LOSS OF POWER. *TR

I AM EXPERIENCING TORQUE CONVERTER SHUDDER AT BETWEEN 45 AND 50 MPH AT 1500RPM OR LOWER. I FIRST REPORTED THIS DEFECT WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 800 MILES ON IT. THE VEHICLE FEELS LIKE IT'S DRIVING OVER RAIN GROOVES OR RUMBLE STRIPS WHEN I'M EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM. THE ISSUE IS 100% REPRODUCIBLE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS INSISTED THAT THIS IS A CONDITION THAT AFFECTS ALL JEEP LIBERTIES CALLED "EXHAUST DRONE." DURING ONE OF MY MANY SERVICE VISITS FOR ONE OF MY MANY OTHER SERVICE ISSUES, I HAD A RENTAL 2012 JEEP LIBERTY THAT DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. JEEP CUSTOMER CARE HAS BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL IN EVEN CONTACTING THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BECAUSE HE DOES NOT RETURN THEIR CALLS. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER WILL FAIL DURING REGULAR USE AND LEAVE ME EITHER STRANDED OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. ALSO, THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY SHIFTS VERY ROUGH, AND ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN I AM STARTING THE VEHICLE IT SURGES FORWARD OR BACKWARD SUDDENLY EVEN WHEN APPLYING VERY LITTLE PRESSURE TO THE GAS PEDAL, AND THIS IS ACCOMPANIED BY A VERY LOUD KNOCKING SOUND. SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE MAKES NOISES BETWEEN 15 AND 25 MPH, WHICH I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE AS A LOUD HIGH PITCHED WHINING OR WARBLING SORT OF NOISE (LIKE A LOOSE FLYWHEEL). *TR

THE CLEAR COAT IS CHIPPING/PEELING OFF THE WHEELS ON THE JEEP LIBERTY 2012 JET EDITION.....ONLY HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 6 MONTHS AND NOTICED THIS JUST RECENTLY. *TR

PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WONT TURN OFF FROM DASH BOARD AND LIGHT FROM UNDER THE RADIO. NO ISSUES AS FAR AS AIRBAGS DEPLOYING. *TR

WINDSHIELD CRACKED OUT OF THE BLUE. LOOKS LIKE A STRESS FRACTURE BUT DEALERSHIP AND CHRYSLER CLAIM ITS ENVIRONMENTAL AND WON'T REPLACE WINDSHIELD. IT'S HAZARDOUS. ADDITIONALLY, THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS ALL RUSTED AND BLACK SOOT IN EXHAUST. *TR

FEBRURAY 26, 2012 8;30 AM .I HAD BEEN DRIVING JEEP LIBERTY FOR ABOUT 2 HOURS, PARKED IN PARKING LOT,WENT SHOPPING , STARTED UP,AND WAS DRIVING MY JEEP LIBERTY AND NOTICE SMOKE IN THE VEHICLE THEN I NOTICED A BURNING YELLOW SMOKE AND FLAMES COMING FROM MY DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CONTROL PANEL , AS QUICKLY AS I COULD I STOPPED JEEP INTO PARKING LOT , AT THAT TIME MY WINDOWS WHERE MALFUNCTIONING AND THE VEHICLE WAS FULLY ENGULFED WITH YELLOW SMOKE ,TURNED VEHICLE OFF COULD NOT GET SEAT BELT UNHOOKED,TURNED SWITCH ON PUT IN PARK AND THEN GOT SEAT BELT UNHOOK PULLED KEYS OUT OF IGNITION CLIMB OVER TO PASSENGER SIDE DOOR TO OPEN DOOR AND THEN OPENED DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND THREW SNOW AND WATER ON DOOR TO PUT FIRE OUT.. . STOOD THERE IN SHOCK FOR A MOMENT, SECOND TIME I DROVE WIFES VEHICLE AND IT CAUGHT ON FIRE 5 MONTHS OLD!!! NOTICED THAT THE SMOKE IN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTING TO DISPENSED AND CLEARING OUT . NOTICED WINDOW SWITCHES HAD MELTED AND SANK INTO DOOR,BURNED FINGERS OPENENING DRIVER SIDE DOOR. REACHED IN AND TURNED KEY BACK ON ,AT THAT POINT THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SMOKE AGAIN , THREW THE WINDOW AND SPEAKER OF DRIVERS SIDE DOOR ,TURNED KEY OFF THREW MORE WATER IN DOOR PANEL AND AGAIN SMOKE SLOWLY DISPENSED . I WAS MOMENTS FROM ENTERING A INTERSTATE AND THE THOUGHT OF WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO MYSELF IF I WOULD HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD IN TIME !! I HAVE BEEN A MASTER MECHANIC FOR 30 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A THING HAPPEN IN ANY TYPE OF VEHICLE BEFORE.I TOOK VEH

AFTER GOING THRU A CAR WASH, I WAS TOUCHING UP THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE WHEN I NOTICED THE EXHAUST PIPE WAS RUSTED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP ON MON, STATED MY FINDING AND REMINDED THE SERVICE REP THAT I HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW ~6 MONTHS AGO (THEREFORE WAS UNDER WARRANTY) I SET UP TO DROP IT OFF ON WED @12PM. ~ 30 MINUTES, AFTER I WAS SHUTTLED TO WORK, THE SERVICE MGR CALLED AND TOLD ME THE RUST WAS NORMAL AND ONLY "SURFACE RUST". HOWEVER, IS GOING TO REPLACE IT TO KEEP THE CUSTOMER SERVICE UP. I SUGGESTED SOME SORT OF COATING TO PREVENT ANOTHER PREMATURE RUSTING, BEING MANY OTHER OCCURRENCES HAVE BEEN REPORTED BUT WAS TOLD THAT CAN'T BE DONE. I HOPE TOM WHEN I AM PICKED UP TO RETRIEVE MY JEEP THAT I WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED! *TR

I'VE BEEN DRIVING MY JEEP AROUND TO WORK AND HOME EVERYDAY AND I NOTICE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHES WHERE IT SAYS IT'S OFF. TODAY 2/17/2013 I DROVE 100 MILES FROM A SMALL TRIP AND THE LIGHT WAS ON THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS DRIVING. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ACCIDENTS. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW 3-WEEKS AGO AND NOTICED THAT THE DEFROSTERS WERE NOT CLEARING THE WINDSHIELD PROPERLY. ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS I ATTEMPTED TO CLEAR MY WINDSHIELD USING THE DEFROSTERS AND WAS LEFT WITH 8" ON EACH SIDE THAT WAS NOT CLEARED. THIS IS A DANGEROUS OBSTRUCTION TO VISIBILITY. I RETURNED TO THE DEALER AND LEFT THE VEHICLE OVERNIGHT, THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND REPORTED THAT IT WAS OPERATING AS PER DESIGN. I BELIEVE THIS REPRESENTS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND WILL LIKELY CAUSE ACCIDENTS. *TR

HAD VEHICLE AT DEALERSHIP ABOUT 3 WEEKS PRIOR FOR A HEAVY BURNING SMELL INSIDE AND OUT SIDE OF VEHICLE.SMELLED LIKE BURNT WIRING. WAS TOLD BY DEALER IT WAS A STICKER ON THE EXHAUST PIPE. WAS TOLD IT WAS FINE AND MIGHT SMELL IT FOR A SHORT TIME..SMELL IS STILL THERE AND LAST NIGHT VEHICLE WAS ON SNOW COVERED ROAD WITH ON COMING TRAFFIC AND THE HEADLIGHTS AND ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS WERE LOST.. HEADLIGHT SWITCH WAS MOVED BACK AND FOURTH FROM AUTO, ON, AND OFF NUMEROUS TIMES TILL LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AND IT DID IT AGAIN ON THE WAY HOME IN THE MORNING. GOING TO TAKE IT BACK TO DEALER ABOUT AN HOUR AWAY FOR THE SECOND TIME.. NOT SURE WHY CHRYSLER DOESNT TAKE TIME TO LOOK AT THINGS PROPERLY AND LISTEN TO THE OWNERS. A STICKER BURNING OFF DOESNT SMELL LIKE BURNT WIRING.. *TR

1) BACKED OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO ENGAGE THEN SLAMMED INTO GEAR, 2) STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION PRESSED ON THE THROTTLE VEHICLE PAUSED AND THEN SLAMMED INTO GEAR (HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES)AND HAS CONTINUED THIS BEHAVIOR INTERMITTENTLY. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES. DEALER AND CHRYSLER STATE THAT THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE VEHICLE BEING ON AN INCLINE AND IT HAS AN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE AND TRANSMISSION STATE THERE IS NOT A PROBLEM AND THEY ARE NOT GOING TO FIX IT THE DEALERSHIP (ADVANTAGE CHRYSLER IN MOUNT DORA FLORIDA TOLD ME IF I DIDN'T LIKE THE RESPONSE TAKE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE. EACH TIME IT DOES THIS IT SLAMS INTO GEAR AND PUTS STRESS ON THE U JOINTS, DRIVE SHAFT, AND REAR END NOT TO MENTION THE DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE STILL HAS LESS THAN 4000 MILES ON IT. *TR

I WAS SITTING IN MY CAR PULLING IT OUT OF GARAGE WHEN A SHARP METAL BAR PUSHED UP THRU THE DRIVERS SEAT, INJURING LEFT LEG. I REPORTED IT TO CHRYSLER AND ONE DEALER WHO SERVICES MY CAR SANTA MARIA JEEP, WHO HAS THE PICTURES. THEY FAILED TO RESPOND, I NOTIFIED CHRYSLER HQ, WAS GIVEN SEVERAL MISLEADING STORIES ON WHAT TO DO. THEY SAID THEY ARE SENDING A VEHICLE ENGINEER TO MY HOME TO EXAM AND PHOTO THE PROBLEM, HIS NAME IS [XXX], HE CALLED AND THEN REFUSED TO COME AND EXAM THE VEHICLE, WANTING ME TO DRIVE IT 30 MILES TO A DEALER. SO HE COULD SEE IT THERE. HE ONLY LIVES DOWN THE ROAD FROM MY HOME SO, WHY MAKE ME DRIVE AN UNSAFE, DEFECTIVE DANGEROUS VEHICLE? I AM A DISABLED VETERAN AND HE STILL REFUSED. CHRYSLER ALSO REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING, THEY CALLED YESTERDAY ADMITTING THEY KNEW OF THE DEFECTS AND THAT I SHOULD NOT REPORT THIS TO ANY REGULATORY AGENCY SINCE THEY WILL IN 5 OR SO DAYS TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO ??? I WAS TOLD BY TWO CHRYSLER EMPLOYEES THEY DO NOT WANT A FILE OR COMPLAINT ON THIS ISSUE SINCE IT COULD CAUSE A NATIONAL RECALL AND CAUSE PANIC IN THE PUBLIC NOT TO BUY OR DRIVE JEEP'S AND AS OF TODAY THEY HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING TO ASSIST. THEY SEEM MORE INTERESTED IN CONCEALING THE DEFECTS AND NOT HELPING THE INJURED PARTY OR FIXING THE DEFECT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT AND HAD I BEEN ON THE FREEWAY IT COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL OR WORSE THAN IT IS NOW. I BELIEVE THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DEFECT AND CHRYSLER KNOWS IT AND IS HIDING IT. *TR UPDATED 08/29/12*LJ UPDATED 0
