I have had my Jeep Liberty for 5 years, I have had to have my air conditioner fixed 3 times. The windows have dropped 5 times, there was a recall on some jeeps in 2006, bad luck for mine did not make that cut, I now have 2 windows broken and don't have 700.00 to fix them.Too bad say's Jeep, The back seat is covered in stains,because of a the type of material used . I will never buy another car from Jeep, and very sorry I bought the one Im stuck with.

I was a jeep lover until I bought this jeep. Slows down from 55 , jerks stutters will not accelerate. Acts as if its going to just stop. Took it in for recall of tow hitch and catching on fire. Who wants a car that hesitates, will not accelerate without reason. More people will get killed. Had to wait for engine code replaced coil pack, tuned up, engine light comes on then drops code. Abs anti skid, eps warning lights on, replaced radiator. Cooling fan, brales, tires. Sensors. Over $2500 in a month. Scared to drive it I've replaced the regulator and the other replaced before I bought it.

Chrysler worst quality interior parts

I bought a Jeep Liberty 2006 brand new, I have replaced the windows regulators about 6 times for the rear windows, spending about $200.00 each time, and still Chrysler do not have a recall for the cheapest windows regulators ever made out of plastic, then the gear shifter light went off and I thought I could fix it replacing a fuse. The dealer told me they didn't have a fix for that so they have to replace the whole shifter. WHAT? I just leave it like that and then the interiors handlers in each door came off when I tried to close the door that after several months of use. It runs great and I haven't have any major problems with the engine but Chrysler used the cheapest materials ever.

Granted that I only got it several days ago, I so far love the jeep. I have not had any issue with the windows...yet but all these reviews scare me haha... I went from a 2 door sunfire and loved it but wanted one of these jeeps since they came out! the gas mileage is what i expected, the 4x4 is a bear in the snow. the four doors is what i missed the most. so far i enjoy the jeep and hope it keeps up.

Head Cylinders 2006 Jeep Liberty

I previously owned a 2002 Toyota 4 Runner for 13 years. It had over 270,000 miles when it was time to purchase a replacement. Due to financial constraints I had to consider other makes and thought I had found a suitable replacement in a 2006 Jeep Liberty in my affordable price range from a used car dealer. The car appeared to be in great shape, drove reasonably well and had ONLY 60,00 miles on it. I have owned the car now for about ten months and have replaced BOTH Head Cylinders, Engine Camshaft and 2 front wheel speed sensors. The total out of pocket cost was over $6,000. To the Service Assistant's credit I was given a small discount and loaner for the car while it was in for repair on the second Head Cylinder replacement. I can understand the speed sensors but TWO (2) Head Cylinders is hard to justify! Some research did indicate that Chrysler did have complaints and were aware of misfiring problems but never did a recall. There is no way i would recommend a Jeep or any Chrysler vehicle with the expectation that the car was not going to make it to 70,000 miles without such major cost.
