Loss of control of 2003 jeep liberty resulting in accident and personal injury. Driving car on parkway. Gently stepped on brakes, car pulled sharply to the right. Took foot off brake and reapplied, car pulled sharply out of control and to the left into center highway divide. Could not pull car off center divide as car skidded to a stop. No other cars involved. Damage to car and injuries reported to police. Contacted jeep, they are sending an investigator over. Have not heard anything since.
2003 Jeep Liberty suspension complaints
Page 16 of 16: complaints 431 to 437 of 437, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Streering wheel vibration at speeds 58-70mph.
Only 9000 miles on vehicle. Left upper ball joint is worn and making noise. Right upper ball joint is also showing signs or wear. Notice: no serviceability of ball joints. There are no grease fittings on upper or lower ball joints.
Front ball joints clunking on 5 month old (8,000 miles) jeep liberty renegade. Vehicle is stock (no lift kit or over sized tires) and hasn't been off road more than twice in light dirt trails. I've read that the dodge durango and other liberty's have similar ball joint failures and am looking for an improved design or fix from jeep.
While driving 40 MPH the vehicle vibrated. The dealer inspected the vehicle but could not duplicate or correct the problem.
Since purchasing in sept 02 have had vehicle in for service six times for numerous concerns, repeatedly for a clunking/grinding sound from the psgr sd ft, a severe pulling of the vehicle to the right, a vibration when driving hwy speeds, and intermittent engine misses. Dealership twice replaced the front end strut mounts which elimated the grind/clunk, but cannot ascertain the problem with the vehicle's instability (pulling) on the road nor with the engine misfires. An adjustment (off spec) to the alignment was performed by dealership which in turn caused the vehicle to pull to the left and also encouraged more steering vibration and worsened mpg - avg 13.21 mpg where initially I got 18 -20 mpg. Dealership claims that b/c roads are angled for water runoff, this likewise keeps my vehicle from staying on the road (!?) am currently beginning to experience a clunking noise from rear passenger side wheel area, but have not yet brought it to dealer's attention.
While driving at speeds around 5o & 80 the vehicle vibrates extremly bad, manufacturer is unsure of the cause of the problem, could this be safe to drive?
