My airbag light came on a few weeks ago and hasn't stopped going on and off it makes that annoying sound the whole trip every time I drive, the heat won't cut on it blows cold air I've had it looked at and repaired allegedly but it still won't blow hot air, the car keeps stalling and it has completely shut off on me 3 times while I have been driving once on a busy freeway I was luckily by grace of god able to turn the wheel off to the side of the road before it locked I have a 2 year old daughter and I'm currently pregnant this is insane and nobody can tell me what's wrong with it or how to fix any of these problems I got a loan for this car so now I'm stuck with this death trap, and now I'm seeing all these complaints about the same thing I'm baffled by the neglect and lack of concern or care for customers and there families who ride in their vehicles safety, I would think it would be a no brainer to recall the whole car if you can't fix the safety concerns or don't have a solution, I need a car to drive I'm wasting so much money on rentals because I have no options with this jeep I need a solution this is crazy I rely on my vehicle for work as I do uber eats and grub hub I need help!!

The tipm in my jeep is messing up and causing engine stalling, radio failure, etc. I have a blue driver that constantly gives me codes related to this part defect. I've also got an airbag light coming on all the time and yet my VIN shows no recalls for this part. If I get into an accident my airbag might possible fail. My engine has almost stalled 3-4 times since I've owned it either from a stop light accelerating or crossing at an intersection this is very dangerous.

The jeep will randomly stall when I try to accelerate, especially in situations where I need to accelerate quickly, e.g. At an intersection or when merging onto the interstate. I will press the gas, and the jeep will not accelerate. I will push down more on the gas, and the jeep does not respond. It has nearly caused an accident every time. Also, the jeep will randomly not start. I will turn the key, there is one click, all the lights on the dash come on as usual, but the vehicle will not fire up. I can turn the key repeatedly, but the vehicle will not start. I have to let the jeep sit for about 20 minutes before it will start up again. No codes are sent to the computer signaling an error or malfunction. No lights come on in the dash, either. My jeep is randomly not functioning when being started or when accelerating and yet, the jeep is not sending any codes or displaying any lights to indicate any problems. The tipm (totally integrated power module) is completely faulty and is going to cause serious harm to my family and others!

On 3 separate occasions, over the course of the last 5 months, my jeep has just randomly quit (engine stalled). This has happened while driving down the road -(twice on a freeway, once on a surface street)- all the dash indicator lights have come on and my jeep engine has just quit. I've been very lucky that I was not in heavy traffic and was able to coast to the side of the road without incident. After a couple of attempts, I was able to restart my jeep. There is no warning to this random stalling, no sputtering, no loss of power, it just quits with no indication. My mechanic states that this due to a defective totally integrated power module that is currently on a nationwide backorder. There are 18 orders in front of mine from my local dealership (that's just one dealership). This defective component causes your vehicle to randomly stall out while driving - potentially putting myself or others in danger of an accident. I'm told it could be weeks or months before this part is available, so every time I get in my jeep I wonder: "will this be the day that I get in an accident" or will someone else get seriously hurt by hitting me? How many others are thinking the same thing? 100's - 1000's? I can't afford to rent a car for an undeterminable amount of time, so I have no choice but to drive this very unsafe vehicle and risk my life and the life of others on a daily basis.

After stopping or slowing down the vehicle has tended to stall or almost stall. This has now occurred 4 times, or which two of these were when turning through an intersection which could have caused an accident. In all cases fuel tanks were greater than 1/4 full.

Well, upon buying the vehicle the defects that culminated are left blinker housing, had water condensation, coolant leakage onto engine, water pump replaced, tensioner, lifter replaced, these areas I noticed a chain like rattle and still to this day when vehicle is cold or sometimes started up, will make a chain like rattle.rear shocks were leaking and replaced. Sometimes engine stalls at idle at red lights, but quickly idles beyond 1000 rpms, upon acceleration. Exhaust pipe readjusted, this was noticed by mechanic. Several other problems are occuring, while vehicle has been turned off, myself and family notices a sound coming from the dash, as if c.d. Is spining in disc changer while vehicle turned off. Actuator is in need of replacing for A/C, noise is noticed, when either A/C or heater is turned on/off.

I purchased my jeep liberty on 1/7/14 and in the first 3 days the car began to stall while driving. It first happened going at slower speeds (15-20mph) and then happened to me going down a busy road at over 45 MPH. The engine completely turns off and power steering fails. Luckily I did not cause any accidents. I immediately contacted the dealer (carmax in orlando fl) and notified them of the issue. I brought my jeep in for repairs and multiple repairs were done to the engine, suspension etc. I picked up my jeep up on 1/22/14 and was told all repairs needed had been taken care of. I began my commute to work and got there safely. When I went to lunch on my break once again at a red light my jeep stalled. And then again another .5 mi down the road going at approx. 20 MPH. I would like to know what is the concern that is being addressed with this problem that multiple people are having with their vehicles. So at least I can tell my mechanic what I would liked fixed when it goes back into the maintenance dept. Please help.
