The vehicle was in motion going about 40 miles per hour when the sky slider roof almost came off. It started flapping very bad. I had it fixed and it is broken again.

All these complaints on the sky slider any class action lawsuits or chrysler issuing compensation? Or buy backs?

Sky slider is broke and nobody has the parts to fix it. It leaks water and doesn't close all the way so the noise is awful. Only fix it to screw it shut or replace with hard roof. We need replacement parts asap.

It wouldn't let me click on multiple other options like the windshield. Snow blows through the front vent sometimes as I'm driving if I have it on regular heat or defrost. The breaks have always squeaked since I got the vehicle in 2018. I have to play with the seatbelt to get it to lock in place. The wheel sometimes turns on its own randomly to the left and the suspension is really off and bouncy.

My roof sky slider has been disconnected from the track that it connects to and will not stay on the roof without manual intervention. I currently have the roof taped down so it does not fly off while driving. With the slider being disconnected, it has caused many leaks to allow water into the inside of the vehicle, damaging the roof, floorboards, and has gotten into some of the electrical areas such as overhead lights above front dash. Initial disconnect happened while driving and skyslider was closed. It started to open up in the front right corner from wind pressure and without pushing the button to open it. Upon further investigation, it has been determined that the pins that keep the slider in place disconnected and will not connect back together. Currently front passenger side, rear driver side, and rear passenger side all have disconnected pins and the slider will not stay on the roof without intervention. I have contacted chrysler and they said that there are no recalls for this issue. This is very much a safety issue as if I were to remove the tape holding the roof down, it would fly off while driving, putting myself and others in danger. Mechanical malfunction (and poor manufacturing in my opinion) is the main problem that has caused this issue. I had used the slider less than 10 times before this happened. I contacted insurance to open a claim and they said it would fall under mechanical malfunction and that was not covered in my coverage.

The skyslider feature on the 2008-2012 jeep libertys are a monumental safety hazard. I purchased my 2008 jeep liberty on march 15th 2017. Within 2 weeks after buying the skysliders pins broke and the skyslider flew back covering my back window. If I had not pulled over the slider could have completely detached and caused a major multi-vehicle collision. I discovered that the pins wear easily broken because they are made of plastic. I am appalled that there has never been a recall and the manufacturer refuses to correct this, especially after reading countless forums of those who have had the same experience.

The skyslider roof on my 2008 jeep liberty is broken and has been for years. I had it fixed while under warranty, but it broke several months later after my warranty expired. Now I have been quoted $4000.00 to repair it again. It came off the tracks while driving and started flapping in the air. Water leaks in the car even when the roof worked. The roof comes off the tracks and then breaks the cable that runs it. You can be stationary or moving. The second issue is the wheel speed sensors go out frequently, and disables your 4 wheel drive. So, if a sensor goes out while you are off roading, you are stuck..... Thats really not cool if you are in a secluded place with no one around to help and zero cell service. Just some really dumb engineering, and totally unsafe.
