2007 Jeep Liberty engine problems

Filed Sep 29, 2022 · Electrical, Engine · OR

My windows will not roll up and down. If I roll them down they will not come back up. My air conditioning went out and I had to drive , 45 minutes, home in 105 degree heat with no recourse . I could have passed out! There was a recall on the windows parts but I bought my jeep used and the recall ended before I purchased it. If chrysler diamler knows that there is an issue there should be no end date to the recall. Every vehicle should be repaired. What if I had a baby or child with me?

Despite good maintenance records, engine seized while jeep was in motion, resulting in total loss of engine power, steering and brake assist. There were zero warnings such a thing was about to happen. No engine light. No abnormal engine noise. Nothing. The engine just seized. Fortunately this did not happen while going at highway speeds. Dealer described engine failure as 'one-in-a-million.' valve fell into cylinder, causing a destructive chain reaction. Upon contacting chrysler's customer relations and presenting my 'one-in-a-million' type of failure (case id# 28648873), I requested support, but was told that chrysler would not provide me with any kind of support and that the decision was final. Does anyone go out buying a used car expecting that the engine will ruin itself all the sudden, just because it's over 100k miles? (the mileage being one of the reasons why no support would be provided) the 'autocheck' report listed only two owners before me. The previous owner had bought this as a 'pre-owned certified' car, and after 6 years of ownership and proper maintenance let go of it. The autocheck report rated it 79 on a scale from 71 to 84, and I was in effect, just the third owner! The previous owner had to unfortunately surrender the car to the insurance company, given the expensive cosmetic repair cost of a rear end impact. I purchased the car at a public auto auction and got the rear end repaired. As weeks have gone by and I've been researching my options, I have come to learn that those 3.7l powertech engines had some design flaws that have cost numerous jeep liberty owners anywhere from dropped valves, to fallen rocker arms, leading in cases like mine, to catastrophic engine failure. Had my engine failure taken place at highway speed, a potentially life-threatening outcome could have happened.

Auto made loud noises and stopped running. Would not start. Had towed to jeep dealer who had it for 3 months and they made sure that the timing was fine. Replaced cam and crank sensor. Still wouldn't start. They finally called us to have the vehicle towed back to our home because the manufacturer told them it was probably the tipm and wiring harness. They told us the cost for the part and to install it (with no guarantee it would fix the car) was $2,300 which we don't have so we have a vehicle that we can't even start.

The engine light come on and stay on. The only time it will go off in the winter time. But will come back on once the warm weather come. Had it test and was told a spark plug or around the spark plug. I change all the spark plug and still engine light come on. It have been going on for about 3 yrs.
