Tl* the contact owns a 2011 jeep liberty. The contact stated that the vehicle had a skyslider roof that malfunctioned. The contact had to forcefully shut the roof after the cables disconnected from the guide rails with the convertible sun roof. The contact called rothrock chrysler dodge jeep ram (1608 plaza ln, allentown, pa 18104, (610) 439-8485), but the parts were too hard to obtain so they did not want to attempt to make any repairs. The manufacturer informed the contact to get a repair estimate without any chance of reimbursement. The failure mileage was 44,000. *tt

This jeep liberty has a sky slider roof which opens like a convertible top. The top malfunctioned when trying to open it and we were unable to close it electronically with the control buttons. It remained partially open at the front and along the sides. This happened while using it in a straight line at around 55 MPH on a 2-lane highway in north dakota while on a trip about 250 miles from home. The dealer was able to manually push it down most of the way but informed us that the entire assembly including motors, arms, cables, and cloth top would have to be replaced. The parts were ordered 7/9/18, and it is now 10/2/18 and jeep does not have a supplier for the part. I contacted jeep customer care 877‑426‑5337 on 9/14/18 to see if they could escalate the situation but they state jeep is waiting for a new supplier. I have a case opened which is assigned to a case manager. Driving it creates a safety concern because it has to be driven with the windows partially down because the air pressure pushes the top up and creates gaps to the outside air. It is disconcerting and distracting driving in the rain and here in minnesota it will be very cold and snowy soon, which will create an even greater safety concern for the 79 year old owner.

Retractable roof would not close properly. When closing, roof would not fully close and seal creating openings exposing the interior to harsh weather conditions. When driving car to seek repair, front section of roof came off track and flew backwards. Fortunately it did not fly off the car but the potential for this to happen is a very serious safety concern. This is not an uncommon problem for this retractable roof system so, I trust this it will be recalled for repair/replacement before a tragedy occurs.

I purchased the vehicle from the original owner. It is an immaculate vehicle. However, the sky glider had leaked sometime in the past ownership terribly. Stained inside. They told me they had replaced the seal at some point. It still leaks terribly. When it rains, wash it, etc. I'd like to know what to do to permanently fix the leak
