Since I have purchased the car used from a dealership, there have been two recurrent problems with it. I have taken it to multiple dealerships and independent mechanics, and none can fix these two issues: 1.) when filling the gas tank at the gas station, the gas doesn't "shut off" when the tank is filled. The gas spills out over the side of the car almost every time I fill the tank - it does not matter the gas station. I was told to deal with it. 2.) my driver side front window does not work - it never has. I can roll it down, but when I try to have it close it comes out of track and gets stuck. I have even had it in under warranty to dealerships twice or three times (in addition to two independent mechanics' reviews) in which I was even reimbursed for a fix - that never worked. I have been told by all of these mechanics that there is nothing that can be done. Please note I am estimating when this started, as I cannot seem to remember the date of purchase - it is around the year 2009. I did buy the car used, and it is a 2007. I bought it with approximately 40,000 miles. If needed I can find paperwork for the exact date of purchase.

Multiple fan & control switch failure - see chrysler recall # 63816 - chrysler will not honor this on my jeep. Repair costs were $ 437.35 and then $ 419.41 same issue, same failure mode. Problem described in the recall notice. Spoke to chrysler on the 800 number they provided with the recall and they referred me to your site and suggested I need to have this problem "officially" listed before they will act upon it? Recall id # 63816 - electrical system recall date mar 09, 2007 component electrical system model affected liberty recall date: mar 09, 2007 model affected: 2007 jeep liberty summary: on certain passenger vehicles equipped with valeo heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), the blower motor may overheat.

This is a complaint about the fuel issue that I have seen on here already.when I go to put fuel into the gas tank, it will not stop at the end as it's filling up. It just overflows. I would say at least a few cups of fuel flows down the side of the jeep and down into the bottom of the vehicle and wheel well. I know that at some point it will lead to rust/corrosion among many other issues. I really wish this could be looked at and possibly fixed by manufacturer. It doesn't make sense that there are more than enough complaints about the same issue, with no help from the manufacturer. I also have the same problems as others with the windows. The regulator has a piece that breaks and then the whole regulator has to be replaced. This has happened 3 times already on different windows. Lastly, I just recently had an issue where the jeep wouldn't start. The console lights and guages work fine and it acted like all was well, but the car wouldn't turn over when the key was turned. The result was the ignition switch actuator pin. It has a piece that breaks off and when that happens, the jeep wont be able start. It isn't an easy fix for someone who isn't mechanically capable. Again, this is an issue that has happened to many people and honestly the manufacturer should do something about this. I could complain about more, but let's just leave it at that.
The driver window fell into the door when the cable broke that makes the window go up and down. It is very cold when the window is open all the time, and if a person blocks the opening to keep warm and not let the rain in, they cannot see properly. (safety issue) I have owned the car about 3 years. I bought it used, so I don't know if there were problems before. But this has been a problem for me ever since I bought the car. I have been told that the window regulator goes bad and that is why the window doesn't work properly and broke the cable. I noticed that there are many complaints about this issue. Many people have spent alot of money to keep the windows working properly. I spent over $700 just to keep my driver door window proper and this is for many fixes. I did not buy the car at a jeep dealership, so when I go in there, they are not real interested in helping me. Please make this issue a recall and help people to get their windows to work properly. Please!!!
Rear window fell into door while driving. Window regulators fail randomly and jeep is not offering a solution. This is the 5th failure of the windows on my 2007 jeep. All windows have failed and been replaced, now the replacements are failing.
While using the passenger side back power window operator to close the window there was a click and the window began to slowly sink back into the door. The car was parked at the time of the incident. This is my second window regulator to go bad. The driver's side back window regulator has also gone bad. It was scheduled for repair.
I own a 2007 jeep liberty sport, with no warranty. A few months ago, the rear, driver side window regulator and motor went bad and I had to replace this out of pocket. What is more frustrating is that this has happened to my driver front widow now. Since my last repair, larry h. Miller jeep in sandy utah has inflated the price of the part. They are very aware of the need of this faulty part and are taking advantage of customers. I now have no window (it is cracked inside my door and I am not in financial position to replace it). It is approximately 30 degrees in my state right now, this is almost unbearable. I have also owned a 2006 jeep liberty prior to this and the rear driver window regulator and motor also went out. I also had to replace this at my cost. This makes three times for the same part! I am asking for a recall and for the dealership to replace this at no additional cost to me. I feel it is already unfair that they provide a bad part, but even worse that they inflated the price part recently and are taking advantage of consumers. This is also unsafe, I have to drive with a garbage bag to my window which blocks my line of sight, but is the only way to keep dry in this fall/winter weather. Please help me, I am at a loss right now and this is my only means of transportation. The dealership's number for where I purchased the vehicle is: (866) 653 3505. Thank you again. Thank you
I purchased a 2007 jeep liberty limited edition 4x4 on may 26, 2012 from local dealership. On september 16, 2012, I was shocked to find rear passenger window had slid half way down through the night. Discovered from internet research that plastic parts are faulty and known by chrysler for years. Yet no recall made to correct this serious problem. Replacing with same plastic parts is no solution. My concern is safety and security. Why have an alarm system when any or all four windows are prone to failure? Steel replacement parts can be purchased online independently, but as a consumer I feel chrysler should be obligated to correct this at no cost. This requires immediate attention. Why wait for the possibility of a child falling out of a moving vehicle. There is no warning.
When going to put the drivers window down, I accidentally pushed the switch for the back seat window behind the driver's seat. When I hit the switch it made a funny noise. So, I left the window alone with plans to get it fixed. The window was up at this point. I went to work and when I returned to my car at the end of the day, the window was all the way down. I attempted to put it up using the switch and it made the same funny noise.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. While parked, the contact attempted to close the rear driver side window when she heard a loud grinding noise and the window would not close. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics. The technicians replaced the window regulator under a goodwill claim. After the repair, the same failure occurred on the front driver side window. The contact received a manufacturer's recall for the window lift plate. The manufacturer was contacted and advised that the recall did not cover the window regulator. The recall did not specify which window would be covered under the repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
Tl* the contact owns 2007 jeep liberty. The contact was driving 40 MPH when three of the windows in the vehicle opened independently and could not be closed. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was contacted and advised that they would contact her at a later date. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 80,000 and the current mileage was 89,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty 4x4. The contact stated that all four windows had fallen into the door panels. The vehicle had been taken to the dealer several times to have the window regulators repaired but the failure continuously recurred. The manufacturer was aware of the failure but provided no assistance to the contact. The failure mileage was 3,999 and the current mileage was 51,000.
Tl* the contact owns 2007 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the front passenger side regulator failed and the window could not be closed or opened. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure who advised that there were no recalls for the vehicle and offered no other assistance. The failure mileage was 84,000.
I purchased this vehicle on december 1 2011 and about a month or a little more later (in january) the front passenger window started messing up (when you rolled it up it started going up crooked and you have to take your hand a straightened several times while rolling it up all the way. Also, the switches that are in the middle area between the seats, the one for the back driver's side passenger side, quit working all together. Toward the end of february or the beginning of march we were traveling down the road ( grandson was in the back luckily on the opposite side in his car seat) and the driver's side back passenger window started malfunctioning (when you went to roll it up the motor that rolls it up started making noise) and the window dropped and somehow jammed the door completely shut and we cannot open it. Today while we were out we noticed the driver's side window is starting to act up. That's three out of 4 messing up or messed up and one has caused us not to be able to open the door at all. We cannot afford to have all this fixed on our own and it is not that old of a vehicle and the mileage is not really that high and it is still in good shape otherwise and from what I have read from some of the other complaints filed on here for the 2007 jeep liberty this seems to be a repeating issue.
Purchased 07 jeep liberty 4/10 on 6/10 the drivers side window fell into the door due to a broken window lift or regulator. On 3/12 the pass side window fell half way down due to the same problem. Its clearly defective parts as so many vehicles have had the same the same problem for several years yet chrysler jeep still will not issue a recall.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. While driving approximately 35 MPH, the contact noticed that the rear driver side window was falling slowly into the door panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics where the technicians advised that the window regulator would have to be replaced. The failure also occurred on the rear passenger window. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 55,000.
The rear passenger window regulator failed and the window dropped. It is currently being held in place with zip ties as the repair will be about $300. Both the passenger and driver front windows are slow to go back up and come off track. You have to pull them towards the back of the car to get them back up. I expect both to fail soon. I have read numerous complaints about this very issue.
This is my 5th time in 4 years! Having to bring into the dealer to have the window fixed. Malfunctions and break down of electric window motors or regulators.
The driver side window dropped into the door. Repairman states that the regulator on the window has went bad. Cost over $300.00 to fix. Two months later, the back driver side fell into the door, and again the repairman states the same problem. Now the total cost to have both fix over $600. I had the passenger side fixed, and had the back driver side blocked up. Do you think that after some many complaints that they would investigate these regulators and maybe have a recall on them. It's now nov. 2011, and my driver side window is acting the same way...think it might be the next one.
I was driving my 2007 jeep liberty with me 4 yr old son in rear safety seat when the rear passenger window slammed open. It could have shattered into the vehicle where my son was sitting. Thank god it did not, this issue I see is a problem with these jeep liberty's.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the driver side brake light failed intermittently. The dealer made six attempts to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was taken to private mechanic who was also unable to duplicate the failure. In addition, the contact stated that the window regulators were faulty and she was unable to close the windows once they had been opened. The driver side window was replaced twice. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but no repairs were performed. The current mileage was 98,120 and the approximate failure mileage was 45,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the front driver side window detached and fell down into the door panel while driving 25 MPH. The contact also stated that the rear driver side window was beginning to fall down into the door panel. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and the contact was informed that a regulator cable broke. The contact was also informed that a new regulator assembly needed to be installed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but offered no assistance. The failure and the current mileages were 45,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. The contact stated that all four window regulators failed and needed replacement. The believed the failure to be a manufacturing defect because all four regulators failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The current mileage was 103,000 and the failure mileage was unknown. Updated 11/29/11 *cn the consumer stated the day she purchased the vehicle, even before she drove off the lot, the window fell down. The dealer gave the consumer a loaner vehicle, while they fixed hers and four days later when she returned to pick up her vehicle, the rear window had fallen down. A few weeks later, the driver's window failed again. The consumer stated only one window works. Updated 12/07/11
Left rear window has failed 3 times (9/5/08, 6/17/10, 10/16/11) and all three times the regulator had to be replaced. The right rear window has failed once (8/29/09) and the regulator had to be replaced. All 4 times, the car was parked and I found the window down and was unable to get it back up. This is a safety issue as I have young children in the back and use the window lock so they are unable to open the window. Having an unreliable window that can fall down at any time is a serious safety issue for anyone with passengers in the back. I have complained to chrysler and they have extended the warranty for the window lift plate but not the regulator. There is a need for a permanent fix for this. I am tired of my regular trips to the dealer to get this fixed. Consumers should not have to pay out of pocket to get this fixed.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. The contact returned to her parked vehicle and noticed the drivers side window was inside the door panel. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and the contact was informed that the motor for the window needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The failure had since recurred on two occasions, once on each rear window. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 35,000.
3 of 4 power window in car have dropped inside the door. 2007 jeep liberty.
2007 jeep liberty window regulator I have had to replace them at least 6 times and the last time I had the problem the window fell in to the door and almost knocking my child in the face with broken glass I have heard more than just mine doing this. I believe that this is not safe when you have children or my self because it did this while I was driving I have had to replace it so many times that I can not afford to replace this anymore and I can not trade in because I cant afford a new higher car payment b/c the value of the cars has dropped because of the window regulator.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the front driver side and both the front and rear passenger side window regulators failed. The dealer advised that all three window regulators would need replacing after performing a diagnostic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised that they would have a representative return his call at a later date. The failure mileage was 36,768.
Jeep liberty: due to a disability, I cannot reach snow on roof to clear. Driving about 35 MPH, braking to slow down for stop sign, all the heavy snow on roof slid forward, completely covered windshield. I was a blind driver for at least 100 feet. No one in front of me this time, thank god. Had to stop in middle of a busy road to clear windshield. Never had this happen with any car I have ever owned. I am 62 and owned a lot of cars. I am so upset, I may sell this car, I am afraid to drive it with snow on roof. Contacted dealer, he said clean the snow off the roof. I am disabled, I told him. He did not do anything, offer advice, etc. Have you had any complaints like this?
I have owned my 2007 jeep liberty since june 2007. Today my right rear passenger window regulator failed. This is the 6th occurrence of this happening since I've owned my vehicle. The driver's side has failed 3 times. The front passenger side has failed once and the left rear has failed twice. Now this is actually the 7th occurrence. Why hasn't jeep done a recall about this?
