Used 2005 Jeep Liberty Limited Rwd 4dr SUV (3.7L 6cyl 4A) Consumer Reviews
Had to review this fun inexpensive little truck
This is my 5th jeep went from a cj to a yj to 2 TJ's but since I got 2 kids had to get a friendlier vehicle and low and behold the liberty. I always thought of these as chick vehicles but they are at the LOWEST end of the used SUV's and I bought a 2005 with 64Km's mint mint mint for 6500$ with 2 sets of tires from an old lady. Now 2 years later i'll review it. This jelly bean can motor, good acceleration, decent offroad handling, moderate pulling power, and absoloutly DISGUSTING GAS MILEAGE! But meh who cares. My unit has been reliable and maintenance free for the past 2 years, easy to park and you can load it up pretty good with gear and 2 kids.
Think twice about buying Jeep Liberty Diesel.
Bought a 2005 Jeep Liberty CRD with 31,000 miles on it, two years ago. Since I bought it, I have had nothing but problems. Have had to replace the water/fuel seperator twice and the alternator once. Turbo blew at 49,000 miles and again at 80,000. Have had all the work done at the Jeep dealership I brought it from. After the second turbo was replaced had to bring it back twice to get hoses inside the turbo replaced. That was another $1000 on top of the cost of the turbo ($5,500) each time. Three weeks after I got it back from the dealer the motor blew. Chrysler and Dealership are blaming one another and refusing to help. If you are looking for reliablity and value, look elsewhere.

05 Jeep Lib Sport 2WD - Too many problems
I purchased my '05 Jeep Liberty Sport new and for the first 2 years it ran great. After that, it's been all down hill. Since, I've spent $1,300 for a new A/C compressor, $300 for new brakes that still squeal, $2,800 for a rebuilt transmission, the CD player won't eject my CD and haven't gotten that fixed, a fuse that keeps blowing out my brake lights, a passenger side automatic window that cost $400 to fix, and now I have the rear latch that won't open that I need opened to get to the brake lights that have, once again, blown out. I'm told this will cost $500 to repair. I am FED UP with my '05 Jeep Liberty!!!!
It's a JEEP and lives up to the name!
After 13 years, still looks great, no serious problems over the years, fun and easy to drive. It was a good choice 13 years ago.J

Much Better Than Reviews
Bought the Liberty Limited for my wife. What a solid, well built vehicle this is! One look underneath at the suspension will tell you that this vehicle is built to last. Nothing cheap about the interior either. Leather seats are so so soft but very supportive. The build quality just oozes every where you look inside. And thirsty gasoline V6? Not on this one. If you drive it like you wish to keep it for a long time as we do, you'll see 24-25mpg easily on the highway and 18-19 in the city. Those numbers ain't bad on a 4000 lb plus vehicle. The ride that's supposed to be not quite up with the rest? That's a bunch of nonsense! Test drive one and YOU be the judge.
