This is my second Jeep liberty...I bouth a 2011 4x4. Horrible mileage from onset. couldn't get anything better than 17.8 miles. now it's down to 12.9-14.3! with 71k's the sparkplugs were changed out, fuel system 'cleaned' for the third time. took me for $600 and no better performance! Would never buy another Jeep product.

Poor quality falling apart not a family vehicle

The side molding on the doors is falling off and is not covered under warranty. Have only had the vehicle for 45 days. I am told that the simple brushing on the side of the seal may make it come off. This vehicle has PLASTIC side runners on the doors measuring 3-4” wide, it is nearly impossible for an adult much less a child to step in & out of the vehicle without stepping on them. These too are coming off and are also not covered by the warranty. My son is 5 y/o 45 lb, I can't imagine if an adult will step on it, it will come right off!!!

Well I never owned a Jeep but considered because of the outdoor activities I do. The Jeep Liberty 2010 is the perfect ride for me! I am in Management and do some company traveling and the Jeep Liberty has the classy appearance for my rep! Although after work, I hunt, or fish off the beach and haul moto-cross and 4- wheelers so the ruggedness and off- road capabilities are there!!! Classy on the outside, all Jeep underneath!! The back road travels use to feel like I was busting my old car apart!!! Not any more!!

The car definitely performs better on bumpy roads and offroad than paved roads. Long driving hours could be a little bit annoying but tolerable. The interior is very roomy and alot better than older models. I loved the arm rest space and the multifunction steering wheel. The on display parking assist visual aid and computer trip in dashboard seemed very appealing. I have no general complains from the car, but it can be a little squeaky on a bumpy ride.

LOVE IT LOVE IT!! I researched the heck outta this one, and I LOVE the new 2010 Liberty. I owned a 2000 Cherokee Sport, I was sad to trade her in but this Jeep is the best!! I love the new body style, previous year models are so lame and ultra old lady looking...the new grill face in the front is to doe for!! Excited to take it 4x4, camping, snowboarding (this weekend) and all the other fun things...definitely worth the $$

Had a 2007 Jeep Liberty hated it. Feel in love with the 2009 Jeep Liberty. Got one about 4 months ago am so happy with it. Had several people tell me how much they like it. So, all I have to say I love my 2009 Jeep Liberty. So much more room in it and bigger. Truly do love it.

Jeep Liberty Limited

We replaced our 2008 Commander with this Liberty. The Command Trac 4 wheel drive makes it up our driveway. Unlike the Commander or Audi Q7 could. The vehicle drives good. We do not pay for fuel, so this is not a problem. The Uconnect works great. With all the options and off road features, the Liberty is hard to pass up. A lot of people and companies love to pass it off as being slow, outdated or just not as good as the Toyota or Honda. Well, these people would have another opinion when they had to walk up their 250 foot driveway when the others could not make it.

Bailout Buggy

Two months old and it's been in the shop five times and is still broken. I had reservations about buying this government bailout buggy; now i realize my mistake. This will be the last Chrysler product I ever purchase. That being said, the Liberty is one of the last few real SUV type vehicles being made. At least it's not a car with a lift kit as are most SUVs today. I see myself enjoying the vehicle more once (or if) it's ever fixed correctly.

I bought this vehicle in January of this year, it wasn't my first choice but it was the right choice. I went back and forth of this vehicle because I do a lot of driving and the fuel economy wasn't great I have driven Subarus prior to my Jeep because they blend fuel economy with AWD safety, but a month after I bought the Jeep me and a few friends went up to the mountains on a ski trip for the weekend and got caught in a pretty bad blizzard with more then a foot of snow on the ground already cars were starting to pull to the side of the road or rather getting stuck on the way to the side of the road. My Jeep plowed through the snow with little effort. I am a Jeep owner for life now

I like the look and ride of the new jeep liberty. I would of not even looked at the old style liberty. I have only had the liberty for about 4 weeks, but have had fun driving it. Plenty of room and well worth the price.

There's Only one Jeep

I have a 21-year-old Cherokee, a 5-year- old Liberty and a brand-new 2010 Jeep Liberty. I love all three. They are the only Jeeps I have ever owned but I am a 4WD convert (live in Maine and hate shoveling snow). The 05 Liberty is a dream with 56,000 miles and no problems in the 2 years I've had it. The new Liberty had some minor adjustment to be made, the dealer was great, and we love it. It is an incredibly smooth ride and a good- handling vehicle. Mileage is not good but who cares? The Jeep engines last a long time. I had a Saturn that exploded at 105,000 but the old Jeep has 160,000 and is still going despite some abuse. Great vehicles. Don't believe the bad reports that Ford writes.

2010 bought brand new March 2010. 98000 miles. Tires. Radiator flush. Front wheel bearings. Believe it or not….no brake work. It’s been a great one until a deer got in the way.

First I am 5'10" male and weight about 185 pounds, pretty average. We have this SUV as a rental for 1 week, it had 4980 miles on it and now has about 5200 miles. It is a 2011 and I am still stuck with it for 3 more days. Never again. Sit back as I tell you every reason not to buy this car. Opening the door and you are greeted with 1980s push button door handles. Uncomfortable to use, ugly, large and seem to be completely made of plastic. Sitting in the car and you are instantly ingested in plastic. Everything is plastic. There is no upper dashboard and the windshield is about 2 feet from your face. There is almost no were to put anything in the car. We found the seats hard to adjust and

I drive this as a company car. It has got to be one of the worst decisions my employer has made. The ride is harsh. The interior is out of the 80s with hard plastic. The transmission seems to be locked into the motor creating a car that won't really coast. It almost seems to be like a 5 speed manual transmission that you can never get out of fourth. The footwell design is horrible and not suited for long excursions. You have to have your foot turned outward to press the gas. There is not space beside the gas pedal on the right side. Really weird and not thought out at all. The worst part right now is that the car will not cool itself within 15 minutes of driving if parked outside.

What a can of junk???? Think a can with junk in it holds more value than this Piece of scrap. Bought year ago 160k miles. 2weeks later front differential blows out, fix that, next week after getting it home had lifter tappy tappy, paid to fix that, but guess what they only changed 1! Only 1 lifter $1200 😑 couple months go by blend door failed and I got the lifter knock again. Brought it in underneath parts and labor warranty but since it wasn’t the 1! Fkin lifter they replaced $1200 again for another lifter when they were told to change them ALL! .... I tried selling it for way under what I have into it and what’s it’s fkin worth but can’t get a bite on it for $2000... it’s clean no rust, has new ball joints control arms wheel bearings u joints tierods inner-outter... basically if there’s a nut or bolt on this thing it’s been spun once or twice. Over $8900 in repairs in 1 yr on a $4000 vehicle. I thought s&@t would work it’s self out eventually but I want out. Buying Toyota now.

The Worst Car Ever

Bought the car 2 months ago. It's been in the shop 5 times already. The heat stops working every time. Customer service is terrible. Corporate is unavailable. The car was a waste of money. Daimler Chrysler will not do anything for me. They should take the car back because that is the right thing to do. Daimler Chrysler said that they wouldn't. This car is unsafe and unreliable. Nobody should purchase one if they don't want the burden of a really bad headache.

I have a 2011 Liberty Sport with 187,000 miles (original owner) Other than the commonly expected stuff to replace it still runs perfect and is solid. My only gripe was replacing the TIPM but you can get a rebuilt one online for relatively cheap.

am a german car man and live in Egypt , just sold my x3 and was waiting for the new 2011,couldn't drive a car much longer in cairo and stopped at the dealer took the jeep for a test drive and actually was amazed at the difference in handling and style so I bought one on the spot. i had a liberty a few years ago and enjoyed it but thought it was a bit rough , i love the vehicle and have been enjoying it , one annoying thing the dealers in egypt put a stopper on the gas peddle for the car not to go over 180 kilos .

I have a lot of fun driving the jeep. I like the looks of it, the gas mileage is fair. Not happy with having to reach out so far to tune the radio. I love that it has the Aux plug to play my mp3. The upholstery appears to difficult to clean. Recently I discovered a large tear in the carpet on the drivers side floor board. My feet dont touch the area that was ripped, The carpet appears cheap and thin. Not sure how the tear got there, I am not careless with the vehicle, and I have only had the jeep for four months. Tried contacting the dealership about it, and no one will return my emails. I purchased the vehicle from faricy boys in Colorado Springs Colorado
