I brought a jeep liberty wanting to try something new . I have been experiencing hell with this vehicle. I have only had it about 2 weeks took it to the dealer no one knows what's wrong because no lights stay on . I've taken it to aamco thinking they could tell me . They saw no problem . When driving this car for more than a hour the throttle light comes on the check engine light esp and it starts to shake like it will turn off . The lights always leave so the next day I have no proof . I have always had trucks and suvs I will never buy another jeep heating is also terrible . Changed heater core alternater radiator check transmission. Every now I'm drive this car blind not knowing what to expect because it has too many mystery's that shops don't know about this is the worst christmas gift I brought for myself

Jeep liberty sport 2010, every time I drive my car up hill slips or looses power in the wheels very easily when it encounters few gravel or crushed stones and small wet areas. It is a very scary experience, to help my car to go up hill more easily I drive the car extremely slow, it does help but I wish I could drive it up hill a little bit faster, the normal way.

2010 jeep liberty spontaneously caught on fire and exploded on friday april 15, 2016. My stepdad and I were out and we stopped and picked up a pizza on the way home and everything was just fine the whole drive home, no smell, no driving issues, no smoke, no overheating dings, no funky sounds. We pulled into the driveway to park and turned off the car, my stepdad got out first, and when I opened my door I said 'ooh it smells like fall!' (I thought the neighbors were having a bonfire or something.) then I saw it and told him 'the car is smoking!' and I got out of the car and got away from it. He tried to open the hood thinking it was a radiator or something but it was so hot it burned his fingers and then he lifted it a bit with a screwdriver as we went to get the fire extinguisher and we saw the fire start shooting out of the sides. It was so hot and so fast. I screamed at him to get him away from it because I knew it was going to explode, and as soon as he was a bit away from it, the hood did explode up and then it started really shooting flames out and and that's when I called 911. There were several more explosions while we waited on the firefighters. It was totally engulfed in flames in 5 minutes. There is nothing left but a shell, and it was one layer from burning our house down. If we were in it another 60 seconds, we'd have taken that first explosion to the faces. We could have died and we almost lost our house, our barn and another car inside the barn. I'm furious. Other people could die.

I got this vehicle on sep 2013 when took it front the dealer I noticed front end vibration,call for appointment when arrive to dealership they said it needed new tires bought new tires at local pepboys,when back with same problem,they then said again are the tires when they were new.this vibration is coming from front end is very loud sounds like wheel bearing they said that is the way the car is. Alignment was performed,still has vibration now I notice right front tire is wearing on out side could be the camber,non of this repair were done at dealership even under warranty I had to paid out my pocket I don't think is right I am doing the research for those lazy mechanics alignment was perform at pepboys they said the camber on rh tire can't be perform correctly because lower control arm doesn't move out no more . Now when turning the vehicle to the left the wheels seems to be touching,scratching something very hard took it to dealership again after showing that I performed and alignment and they don't know what is causing this I think is unsafe because when I am turning vehicle seems to slow down or something is holding it back I notice that front left brake hose is rubbing the rear of suspension fork at bottom of control arm when turning left there is signs of wear on brake hose same is happening on right could be excessive turning radius on this jeeps that is why may be causing this rubbing noise putting stress on cv axle or bearing.
