My power windows broke in the back seat of my 2003 jeep liberty.
Tl* the contact owns a 2003 jeep liberty. The contact stated that over a span of seven years, each of the windows failed and dropped down into the door panel abnormally. The failure occurred while the contact was driving and while the vehicle was parked. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times and an independent mechanic to be repaired for a total of five times. The contact was informed that a plastic part within the window mechanism had melted, causing the glass to drop down into the door panel. The failure mileage was unknown and the current mileage was 42,000. The VIN was unavailable.
Control mechanism for the right rear electric window broke and window fell down. Would not roll up. Mechanic said control was broken and that whole control mechanism would have to be replaced as that is the only way that jeep sell part even though only part of mechanism was broken and electric motor still worked. Very expensive repair for a part that should be sold separately. I have seen other similar complaints. Looks like this is a faulty part on the jeep liberty. Car only had 68,000 miles even though it is a 2003.
On my 2003 jeep liberty renegade while driving home on I-15 the door light came on the dash it was obvious a window was also open as the on rush of wind, I pulled over to find the back door was ajar and the window was down, I pulled on the handle to check it out and close the door, and a red looking type of coil approx 10 inches long was sticking out and laying across the door lock and jamming the door locking device inside the door, I had to shove it back into the door lock assembly to get the door shut. This red coil is the mechanism that controls the window as my left rear window regulator has failed and the window stays all the way down. This is an ongoing problem with all four windows, the last time it was in for repair was 4 months ago and it cost me money each time, this is the second time it has caused the door to pop open while the vehicle was moving. I have had it in for window regulator problems approx 12 times. Thank you for looking into this for me as the dodge reps just shrug their shoulders like they don't believe it or just don't care. Something has to be done about this hazard, lemon law, national news, class action , something. Next time I will take a photo , and call witnesses.
While driving my 2003 jeep liberty sport, I heard a loud and distracting thud, only to discover that the back window on the drivers side had fallen into the door. The door also became jammed and I was unable to open it from either the inside or outside of the vehicle. This happened to the other back widow just 9 months prior to this incident. At that time I took my vehicle to an auto repair shop, and paid to have it fixed.I have read several complaints about this happening in the jeep liberty. The issue is a cheap, plastic part used in the window regulator. This is a design flaw, and chrysler will only replace this part with another cheap plastic part, rather than using a sturdier metal part. This is an expense issue as well as a safety issue. The noise the window makes when it falls is very distracting. All the doors and windows should be functioning properly in case of emergencies, and the driver should be able to control the windows, in order to avoid dangerous debris flying into the car, not to mention having some control over outside elements. (weather) chrysler really should do a recall, and stop charging jeep owners to fix what is their fault in the first place-it is a design flaw in the jeep liberty. Many reports from jeep owners mention this happening to the same window, or multiple windows over and over. There ought to be a class action lawsuit against chrysler.
Window regulator inside the rear passenger door broke and caused the worm cord to shoot out of the door locking mechanism. Therefore the window fell inside of door and door would not shut or lock and the window will no longer mechanically move up or down.
Jeep liberty window falling inside door -- eighth (8th) time on this vehicle. Safety issue because of children riding in the rear seat and window is unable to be brought to a close. I bought this liberty new and have garaged it the entire time but the repair parts are worthless. Why won't chrysler be forced to repair these windows with parts that do not break?
Tl*the contact owns a 2003 jeep liberty renegade. The contact stated that the rear passenger and driver side window regulators had to be replaced three times at a local repair shop as the windows would not move up or down in the door frame. The contact had to cover all repair expenses as there were no related recalls. The manufacturer had not been notified. The failure mileage was approximately 116,000.
Tl*the contact owns a 2003 jeep liberty. While driving 2 MPH, the contact noticed that the driver side rear window suddenly dropped inside the door. The vehicle had not been inspected or repaired. The current mileage was approximately 100,000 and the failure mileage was approximately 80,000.
Without warning, the power window regulators in my 2003 jeep liberty sport failed. Both the driver and passenger rear windows stopped working within months of each other. I had them fixed and now just a few months later the passenger side window in the rear has stopped working again. I have read that this is a common problem with the jeep liberty. The faulty part(s) need to be recalled and fixed.
Windows fall out of track, down into door. 2003 jeep liberty this has happened 3 times in 1 year.
All four windows have fallen down into door. 2 of which were replaced a month ago. The other 2 fell two weeks after taken to dealership. I was charges $100 for first time. They said they looked at the other two and they were ok. Now they want another $100 for the other two.
Power window regulators on my 2003 jeep liberty have been replaced by jeep during warranty, then by me post warranty a total of 6 times. Each regulator assembly costs me $172 and they only appear to last 1-2 years, even with minimal usage.
Window regulator failure causing window to fall. 2 failures on drivers side rear window, 3 failures on passenger side rear window since july 26 of 2006. Parts replace 3 times at owners expense, 1 at jeeps expense and latest with co-pay.
When I was sold my 2003 jeep liberty without a working A/C, I was forced to use my windows as a means of ventilation and cooling these past almost four years. (the A/C is another story.) my rear passenger window started to make gargling type noises as I rolled it down and up about two months ago. Then my front passenger window began to make a similar sound. However, when attempting to roll it back up 2 weeks ago it would not come all the way up. As I pressed on the window button for a few seconds this coil came up from inside the door and the window would not go up any farther. So, I had a mechanic friend open the door to check out the problem and he said the foam piece (regulator) was broken. Another friend and I researched the problem online and came across numerous unsatisfied customers who are dealing with the same issue! I got the number of a local dealership and the service person looked up my VIN to see if there are any recalls on my liberty. To my dismay there are none. So, his guess to fix my problem would be $300 - 600...for one window!! There's no way I'm able to pay for even half of that outrageous cost! With one window out of commission, the rear passenger window is still gargling at me so I try not to use it. However, without a working A/C on these hot days it's such a disgrace to not be able to use my windows! Plus, I drive a lot for work and transport people...not good!! Today I came across this website. I'm not sure what this is going to do to help my situation (and others in the same leaking boat), but it was worth a shot. I'm tempted to go through the other websites to order the part myself and then fix it myself. Is this a wise decision, or should I wait to see what comes of this complaint? It's a shame that big corporations are allowed to do this to their trusting consumers. From all of us "little people", we appreciate any help we're able to get from this ridiculous situation.
Driving along and rear right power window started to slip down. I tried to put it up but it made grinding noises and kept slipping. It started to rain, so rain came into vehicle. Also could not go to doc appt - could not leave unsecured vehicle in parking lot. Had to come home and stick a wooden wedge into window to keep it up. I was afraid window would fall into door frame and break. Hard to pay attention to road while constantly looking over shoulder at window.
2003 jeep liberty every window regulator has been repaired at least once. Spent over 1,000 in repairs. Google it... Numerous complaints about this model from every year with same problem. Needs to be recalled and fixed! Money owed back to owners.
Six times windows (both sides, front and back) have fallen at different times inside the door of my jeep liberty. Today the falling window also resulted in the door not being able to open. This definitely is a hazard when you have small children riding in the back seat -- since they cannot ride in the front due to the air bags. This is a well-known hazard to chrysler jeep and they will not waive the cost of the repair or the deductible on the warranty. And the problem keeps happening. I figure that a window on this vehicle lasts about 10,000 miles because I only have 66,000 miles and this is the sixth time it has happened. This is dangerous and there should be a recall on this problem and the problem should be permanently repaired free of charge.
Rear passenger drivers side window has fallen and been replaced twice, it did it again so now it is screwed up. In research this is a major problem with the vehicle.

Tl* the contact owns a 2003 jeep liberty. The contact stated the rear passenger side window glass dropped into the door frame. The manufacturer was contacted but did not offer any assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and the current mileages were 89,373.
I have a 2003 jeep liberty, as I was crossing a rr track the back passenger window went down by itself. The local jeep dealer says it is going to cost $400 to $500 to repair, I could not afford it so had to put a peg in the window to hold it up, about 1 year later my son rolled down the back driver side and it would not roll up, it is same thing happened on the other window, as I was looking online this is happening alot. I am wondering along with lots of other people why the is no recall been placed on considering there are so many cases. Just because no injuries have occurred does not mean they should get away with not fixing their bad parts. If it was one or two cases I could see them not fixing it but all I have read online it is way more than that. We the consumer should be protected from the big automakers.
Rear window driver's side fell down - window regulator replaced (2006). Rear window passenger side fell down- window regulator replaced (2008). Rear window passenger side fell down - window regulator replaced (2009 part under warranty). Rear window driver's side fell down- window regulator not yet replaced (2009). No old parts available except one that has yet to be replaced. Contacted customer assistance in auburn hills, mi and was told that there was nothing they could do for me. I asked if there were any records of defect for this part or if any other owners had similar complaints and was told that they don't keep those sort of records. Since this time I have come in contact with 3 parties that have the same problem with this part (faulty window regulator) I believe there are many more that have a problem with this part and that the manufacturer should be held responsible for repairs and reimbursement for repairs already completed (by dealer or other).
The power window regulators in both back windows have failed twice, causing the windows to fall. This is a safety issue. If these fail during and rollover accident and the window falls a person can be ejected from the vehicle. It also poses a threat for vehicle theft or abduction because of an unsecured vehicle. On april 3 2010 our rear drivers side window failed for the second time and the passenger side rear has also failed twice all since july of 06'. Online forums have hundreds of people who have had similar experiences.
My rear passenger side power window fell down and would not go back up. I tried the automatic push buttons and all my other windows worked, but not that particular window. Then the cord got caught and I could not open the door for my friend to get out of the back seat. I did not hit anything with my car and nothing hit my car. The window fell down on its own.
Twice now on my 2003 jeep liberty the passenger side rear window has fallen into the door. The first time this happened was in approx 2007. Both times when I noticed that the window was partially down, I tried to roll it back up, but it wouldn't move. I then tried to pull it back up and the entire window fell down into the door. The first time it cost approx $400 to reattach the window and replace the faulty connector part. Not yet sure what the cost will be for this repair. This is very dangerous with my daughter riding in the back seat. Apparently, there have been hundreds of similar complaints with these windows failing multiple times on the same car... This should definitely be a recall! See http://www.carcomplaints.com/jeep/liberty/2006/windows_windshield/window_regulator_breaks.shtml.
I own a 2003 jeep liberty. The rear drivers side window slipped off the track in 2008. I was told it would be over $400 to repair at dealer. Then on feb 20 2008 the other rear window slipped off the track and began to fall into the door. The windows will not stay up on their own and I feel that there have been far too many complaints for chrysler to not make this a recall issue. I called the dealer and they asked me to contact chrysler. I spoke with chrysler and they have my information and have sent it on to the resolution team and I should receive a call by monday 6pm 3/1/10.
I have a 2003 jeep liberty. I have been having problems with my blower motor. At first, I had no air rotating at level one. Then, I would have no air rotating at all. Then, the following day, it would be working. Now it doesn't work at all. I took my kids to school today, and I had problems seeing threw the windshield because I had no air blowing the defrost. As of now, I haven't not had anything repaired.
Although I live in a warm climate on a rare cold and rainy day the rear window on my 2003 jeep liberty dropped open. Driving with rain entering the passenger compartment made the trip hazardous. I was able to prop the window up once I reached my destination. I had both the right and left rear windows go bad within one week of each other in june 2009 costing me $500.00 to repair. Prior to that I had regulators go r bad for the same windows. In all cases new regulators had to be ordered. On occasions where the window could not be propped I had to cover the window with plastic in order to keep the rain out. That did not help the security concern. Also on the last repair occasion it took the dealer one month to get the parts.
