2003 Jeep Liberty: engine knocking or ticking

Filed Oct 13, 2016 · Electrical, Visibility · VA

Window regulators keep on failing. I have had to replace the regulator in each window at least once, and 2 of them have been replaced more than once. I am about to replace my 7th regulator. 3 months ago the regulator failed on my driver's side - back seat door. It got itself hung in the door panel and couldn't open the door, so had to take it to the garage to get fixed. This is not the first complaint, nor the last so something should be done to resolve these issues. The regulator itself still worked, but the housing the chain stays in would break and cause the chain to come out the door panel, and knock the window off its track and damage the glass!

Airbag indicator light comes on when vehicle is started, and stays on for approximately 30 mins. The majority of the roads near me are 45mph or above, and with the high rollover rate of SUV's I don't feel remotely safe knowing that at any minute my airbag can go off. I shouldn't have to feel like I'm driving a ticking time bomb of a death box. At this point I feel I don't even want the vehicle anymore and am thinking about trading it off, but I feel like chrysler should compensate me and other jeep liberty owners for having to do so.

Drove it the night before and it ran perfectly fine. No problems at all. Come out to go to work in the morning and turn the key and the engine was knocking really bad. So I turned it off and tried it again and got the same thing again. Took it to the mechanic which is 1/8miles away. He replaced the spark plugs and wires and still doing it. He said the engine has full compression. He can't figure out what is wrong with it. Not even a 100,000 miles on it yet. Very disappointed in jeep... The mechanic said I need a new engine. 3.7l 2003 jeep liberty and it have seen others having this such problem too. Jeep needs to step in and do something about it. I will ruin their reputation so bad by social media. Friends from all across the country and other countries will find out that jeep is a joke and does not stand behind their vehicle. I will never buy another product from them ever again!!! Please jeep step in and do something for us.. Recall the engine for these car's!!!!
