The steering gear is coming apart and is slipping which causes it to feel like you're driving sideways down the road. The windows will not go down without making a horrible noise and the thermostat housing needs to be replaced. After driving the jeep it smells like its been on fire.

I purchased my 2004 jeep liberty in 2009 with 16k miles on it. In 2010 I had to have the passenger's side window regulator replaced at $200. In 2011 the back driver's side window had the same issue, but now the repair was quoted at being at least $400. In late 2016 the back passenger window did the same thing. This week march 2017 the driver's side front window has done the same thing and no longer stays up. All of these have happened while driving either on a city street or highway while moving.

On my 2004 jeep liberty I have had the lower front ball joints replace a few years back by the f23 recall. This week as I was replacing upper control arms, which come pre assembled with the ball joint, I noticed the boots for the lower ball joints were again damaged. I also noticed that there is a loud noise when going over unsmooth surface roads, etc. I am thinking this could be caused by the rear upper control arm. Now I'm not a professional mechanic, but common sense tells me that the engineering on the suspension has been compromised. I contacted chrysler, who told me to contact a dealer, who told me they would get back to me on this problem. I also experienced multiple window regulator problems, along with recalls on the air bags system as well as gas tank protection recalls.

The window regulator clip has broken on the rear windows at least six times. There is a plastic clip that evidently gets brittle and breaks. This clip should have been made of a stronger material. This keeps happening on windows that we never even use. So, it is not from wear and tear. Jeep covered the cost six times, but will not cover it again. It is very expensive to fix.

My passenger side window has fallen down and it will cost about $400 to have it repaired. From my understanding this is caused by a defective window regulator. I have read that chrysler used a cheap plastic clip in its assembly. This is the 2nd window this has happened to. In searching the internet there are thousands of people that have had this problem, most of the problems are in the 2004 model. Jeep really should do a recall on this problem. I only have 36,000 miles on this vehicle and these problems should be paid for by jeep chrysler. I was driving to the store the other day in pouring down rain when all of the sudden the window dropped down. I stopped my car and tried to pull it up, but if fell down too far. The inside of my car got very wet because of this and I had to return home. I then took it to my local repair shop. It is still there, so I have been without a car for 4 days. As I have said there are hundreds of complaints about this problem and chrysler jeep won't do a thing about it for their customers.
