Purchased used in July 2018 with 80k miles and outside of the poor gas millage, I just love it. It's the sport model with a bunch of options inc. sun roof, upgraded sound system and chrome package with painted fender flares and matching wheels. This jeep is a solid vehicle with plenty of power and good off road capabilities. It rides good, for 4WD, and is fun to drive. Most of my driving will be in town or bumming around the many forest service roads in Arizona. Still loving my Jeep after 3 years of ownership. Strangely enough my gas millage increased 2 mpg for no reason I can think of. At 90k miles a got an emission engine code but replacing the gas cap solved that problem.

I owned my 2006 Jeep Liberty for 4 years and I had nothing but problems. I just sold it and have never been happier to be rid of it. It saw the garage once a month. It is very hard on brakes, tires, the calipers continually seize and I can't tell you how many times I've driven around with a smoking wheel and the smell of burned rubber in the car. It blew fuses, had to have the back springs replaced, it sometimes will not start.....never, ever again.

My 2007 Liberty seats look filthy from stains brought on by water! Embarrassing to have passengers to see the seats! JEEP needs to recall these seats and do something about the ridiculous(ness) of the easily stained cloth that repels nothing!!!
Worst i every owned - i regert purchasing this.

i purchased the 2006 liberty with the Turbo Diesel engine. this is the 2.8L 4-clyinder. i had nothing but problems with this and had to fix all the short commings that chrysler failed to install. for example: 1) chysler never installed a fuel lift pump for the diesel and instead relied on the high pressure injection pump mounted on the engine to suck the fuel from the tank at back of the veichle.... this created vacuum issues and caused air to be sucked in and cause fuel cavitaion issues and engine stalling. Solution: i purchased $100 auxilary fule pump from napa and installed this. 2) chrysler routed the crankcask venilation back into the tubo instake... Problem: all oil vapers are condense in the intercooler and cause blockage of intercooler and cause engine to starve of air and smoke like hell due to wrong air/fuel mixture. Solution: cost me $500 to have intercooler replaced. then install a hose to vent crankcase vapers to atmosphere. 3) the fule filter is only 10 micron rating...not fine enough for the CRD injectors...Problem: fine particles pass right through the fuel filer and destroy the injector(s) Solution: i had to purchase all 4 new idiesle injectors at $800 each ..YES!!! $3200 for new injectors before tax and labor!! AND ..chrysler is the only provider of these injectors because nobody else in america sells these parts! 4) the engine threw a rod and punched hole in motor block and seized up at 151,000 miles. Solution: junkyard chrysler abandoned all the jeep liberty owners... DONT EVER BUY A JEEP LIBERTY....YOU WILL REGET THIS DECISION AS I DID. Learn this from me... Update 2016...damn engine threw a rod punched hole in the engine block. Only 150000 miles! Damn [non-permissible content removed] chrysler is siting behind my garage for 6mos now. Diesel engine to ecpensive to buy even used is $3800 from LKQ.
