The drivers window regulator is not working. Second problem is when I start my jeep up and put it drive it sometimes makes a clunk noise , like it' going in hard and all the boxes light up around the p.n.r.d. And it has no power. I have to turn it off and restart it and it clears it up.

While driving, the prndl had lit boxes around all the letters, and dash indicators all lit up, and jeep lost power as if stalling. It then "went" back into drive on its own. This happened over eleven times, with mileage starting at 1,186, and most recently at 52,536. Dates of repair incidents are : 2/12/07, 12/31/07, 1/10/08, 9/22/08, 1/5/09, 6/9/09, 6/18/12, 10/19/12, 12/26/12, 3/8/13, 3/22/13. My jeep is a 2007, averaging 8,756 miles per year. I bought it new and I take very good care of all maintenance right away - oil changes, filters, tire rotation, etc.! Each time it was brought to the dealer for "repair" , they either couldn't find the problem, or replaced : shifter module (twice), transmission wiring harness (three times) and suggested a new battery (we replaced that also), and transmission plug and seal. There were also numerous "software and anti-theft updates. In addition to these, I replaced the driver's side window regulator twice. Now, they want to replace the "transmission temp circ." and esm module - for another $1,500.00 . All this in 52,536 miles and 6 years !!! I firmly believe there are serious manufacturer defects with this vehicle. My biggest concern is the safety of this jeep is unpredictable. I never know, even after all the "repairs and replacements" , if it will suddenly lose power and I might be in danger (traffic, intersection, etc.). How in the world could chrysler deny this problem? It needs to be resolved at the source, they are responsible for the safety of their vehicles !!!! There are many reports of this same issue from numerous 2007 jeep owners - where is the recall ???!!!!

The auto up/down feature for the drivers side power window does not work. When using the button, the window will go up a bit then back down, then up and down. Could potentially be a problem in that the window will not close.

We have had the windows in our 2002 jeep cherokee just drop,when taken to the dealer the whole window regulator has to be replaced, even though it is a small piece that breaks. The same window twice has now fallen. The dealer rep said this is a huge problem for the jeep line and they have had to order large ammounts of the regulators to keep up with the breakage. We have a 2006 jeep liberty at the tv station I work at and both of the rear windows did the same thing,yet no recall by the manfacuter,when asked at the dealer they just shrug their sholder the cost of the unit is around $450 dollars and then the cos of labor thank you.
