My original intent was to file a complaint about a gas overflow issue, but after seeing all the other liberty complaints, I have included other issues I have: 1. For at least two years, when pumping gas, the gas has continued to flow even after the automatic flow has shut off. I now stand at the pump and when I think it is getting full, I start pumping by hand to avoid the overflow. After checking on the internet, this is an issue other liberty owners experience. I did receive the initial recall notice for 13v‑252, but nothing since to say the part is in. Since the gas overflow is experienced by many owners, is this part of the recall? 2. Check engine light is always on. It has been re-set many times; is ok for a day or two and then re-appears. Per owner's manual, this is not an issue unless the light is flashing, which it is not, but why does this continue to occur? 3. Both back electric windows have fallen down without warning. Both are now secured in place with tape, as it would be too expensive to repair. 4. The back left door will not open from the inside.

There is a safety recall n46 / the federal safety agency 13v‑252 which we were notified about. Said that chrysler was going to fix the problem. But this recall was effective back in june 2013, and we just called them and they have made no attempt to send out, make or obtain any of the parts needed to fix this safety recall!! Can you move them along?

My complaint is actually about the federal safety agency! In june of 2013, the federal safety agency petitioned chrysler to recall (recall number n46) jeep liberty vehicles including model years 2002 - 2007. According to chrysler customer service, my 2006 jeep liberty is included. Apparently, there is a risk of fuel tank puncture, and subsequent fire in the case of rear-end collision. Chrysler, after initially refusing to issue the recall, caved in to the federal safety agency pressure. When I spoke with chrysler today, five months after they agreed to the recall, they indicated that they are waiting on the federal safety agency reviews and approval of chrysler's recall proposal to install a trailer hitch in under-equipped vehicles, in order to strengthen the rear end of the vehicle and prevent gas tank punctures in the event of a low-speed rear-end collision. It seems counter intuitive that the federal safety agency would pressure a manufacturer to issue a recall, and then hold up the process of repairing affected vehicles when the manufacturer finally agrees. If this alleged vehicle defect actually presents a safety hazard, why allow five months to pass without action?
I called chrysler (800‑247‑9753) and spoke to [xxx] about the federal safety agency reference #13v252000; gas tank assembly recall and was told my vehicle. She told me my 2006 was not on their list for recall. I gave her the last 8 digits of my VIN and she said it was not on the recall. I referenced the federal safety agency number and was told the same thing. I told her I am the only owner of the vehicle and purchased it from barnett chrysler/jeep, white bear lake, mn in mar 2007. Again I was told my VIN is not on recall. I asked how that could be; the gas tanks were not placed in different locations depending on the vehicle. They are placed in the same location on the vehicle. When I asked why my vehicle is not on the list, all I was told is the VIN isn't listed. I was told it would be corrected with a tow hitch; which I do not currently have. I would like to know where I can go to file a further complaint about how this is being handled and why I cannot get any definite answers to my questions.

This was the first time that we had filled the tank up on our 2006 jeep liberty since we purchased it on june 7, 2013. While standing at the pump waiting for the tank to fill up, the tank started overflowing with gas. I had gas all over me, the car, and the ground. I wrote it off as being a problem with the pump. 1 week later I go to a different pump to fill it up, and it happens again. So I called the dealership that services my vehicles and explained the problem and we took it in for them to look at. They said that this is a common problem but jeep will not fix the issue. I started looking on jeep forums and have found quite a few instances of this same problem on the jeep liberty and these people have also filed claims to the federal safety agency. The only way for the problem to be fixed is for the tank to be replaced because there is a check valve in the tank that is causing this. This is a very costly repair as I have called a couple of dealerships around in the are with the tank alone costing over $1,400 dollars. This is a known issue that jeep refuses to fix. It is a safety issue due to a manufacturing defect.
We were driving down the road and we went to roll down the rear window and it fell into the door and wouldn't go up or down. When we stopped to attempt to fix the window the door will not open at all.
2006 jeep liberty. Consumer writes in regards to defective window parts installed in vehicle. *smd the consumer stated the window has been replaced five times within the last four months, in addition, to the previous 11-12 replacements in 2007. The consumer stated using the same defective parts was not going to fix the problem. Also, when the windows were down, there was a thumping and wind noise, that was unbearable. The consumer stated things were stolen out of his vehicle, because the windows would not go up. Also there was a noise coming from the rear of the vehicle and the doors would vibrate when the windows were down.

During these seven years the system are broken crystals have arranged more than twice per glass and still the same problem will fall by itself or during these driving parked I understand it's a manufacturing problem since the warranty is running out continues with the same problem I understand it is a failure of the material that made ??the system that is not usual is the same piece that holds the glass is its position to raise or lower by the electrical system and the engine is still working but can not do anything to take it to the dealer to tell you which is the system that is broken rails I understand that should change the material that is manufactured or seek a permanent solution.

My 2006 jeep liberty has a serious problem with the window regulators and lift plates. June 1, 2010, was the first regulator to go out. The second one went out shortly after that. Now the first one has dropped again. The first time, I paid over $400 for the repair. The second one was covered by chrysler completely, and they reimbursed me $333 for the first repair when the second repair was done. They are going to "consider" reimbursing me for this third one, but I have to jump through all of their hoops for it to be considered. This is a serious problem that is affecting many many liberty owners. There should be an extended warranty on these regulators and plates. My daughter is driving this car and should not have to be concerned with whether her windows are going to stay up. This is a serious safety issue. The federal safety agency should demand that chrysler either recall these or at bare minimum put an extended warranty on all libertys for these parts. Ugh. This is ridiculous. Oh, and we bought the car used in november 2009. For all we know, multiple regulators might have been put on this car in its first 36,000 miles before we bought it.
My mother bought a used 2006 jeep liberty has never had a problem,so in march of 2010 me and my husband decided to purchase a used 2006 jeep liberty from a trusty car dealer. Within 2 months of having this jeep our right rear window dropped into the door as we were driving to a family function. My biggest fear was that 1 of our 3 kids could have been hurt by broken glass. My father repaired the window by wedging a piece of wood between the door and the window. I later called jeep who told me there was no recall on this jeep and that they would gladly split the cost with me which only cost $600 per window and they won't warranty because they know it will happen again. I left it alone cause we could not afford this at the time. A few months later in november 2010 the left side rear window slipped,once again my father repaired it at best he could. I finally went online to see what I could do repair the problem myself at a cheaper cost. I came across a web site steigers.com the gentleman who owns this company has created a replacement piece for the broken part and it works great. I replaced it myself with no knowledge of repairing cars. The only hard part was working in such a tight space..thank god my hands are small enough to squeeze in between the door and the window area. The part is about a $100 with shipping and handling and so far seems to have solved the problem it took about an hour to do all the work on 1 window. Thats not our only problem with this lovely vehicle we have also had problems with the fuel spilling out when filling the tank. The tank seems to build pressure or catch air. I don't know all I know is it scared me really bad the first time.and we have also had problems with the esp especially when you hit a turn to hard or hit a big bump. How wonderful a 4x4 vehicle who doesn't like big turns,bumps or snow. And the most expensive part is the broken window..they told me its called a binding crack it happens to all jeeps so don't force your jeep to do its job..and work.
The power windows in my 2006 jeep liberty have a design defect. The original design includes a plastic part which breaks and allows the window to fall down into the door. My driver-side passenger window has been held up with tape for the past 12 months. I recently had to pay $250 to have the driver's-side window regulator replaced. Researching online I have seen incidents where owners have had to have the same window replaced two or three times at $300-$500 per incident.mopar body service bulletin 23-008-09 and 23-014-08 detail the issue and chrysler's correction. Please let me know ([xxx]) if this is subject to a the federal safety agency safety recall or of I should start a class-action lawsuit to correct this defect. There is an aftermarket kit which replaces the faulty plastic part with a steel part at http://www.steigerperformance.com.

The window regulator's in my 2006 jeep liberty continuously break and the window falls down into the door. There are thousands of complaints of this happening all over the country. This is very unsafe when a child is traveling in the car for the window to just fall into the door. And chrysler will only replace with another part that will do the same thing in 6 months.
I bought a 2006 jeep liberty limited on 8-20-09 in excellent condition with approximately 50,000 miles. Before I even drove the car off the dealerships lot, the rear driver's-side window/window regulator failed rendering the window inoperable. Dealership did not have part and had to seal in up position so as not to fall, while part is being ordered. Upon extensive research on the internet on various highly respected car review/rating sites, I have learned that the 2006 jeep liberty has a known defect in quality of window regulator design and material used which causes windows to drop into doors or cease operating routinely on average of every 2-3 months. Yesterday while driving, my rear passenger window dropped while I was driving 65 MPH on a major highway in traffic. I was subsequently startled to the point I swerved, and narrowly missed hitting another car which would have caused a multiple car collision on a major interstate. I have since taped my window in the "up" position until I can resolve this issue with dealer. Dealership has informed me that they will only cover this first replacement/repair, and that I will be responsible for future window regulator repairs of $500.00 each. This is absolutely unacceptable. A company/dealership should stand 100% behind their product and should certainly address potential safety issues resulting from something as critical as this. The known window regulator failure could cause accidents, bodily injury, theft/vandalism issues, and depreciation and degradation of vehicle interior due to weather damage. I will be filing complaints with state attorney general and car manufacturer/corporate headquarters. A safety recall should immediately be issued, and these window regulators should be redesigned with something other than plastic that has proven to repeatedly fail. While certainly an inconvenience of time, and a financial drain and stress to consumer, this is most assuredly a very serious danger to occupants & other drivers.
Repeated window regulator failure.
