Thought it would be better

I downsized from a f150 4x4 5.7l v8 to my jeep liberty. Believe it or not... I was getting better fuel mileage in my truck... I am not impressed with the Jeep Liberty at all and if I could go back I would. I have had it for 10 months and feel it was the worst decision I have ever made. I highly regret not researching this vehicle before buying it. It looks very good, but it is not at all. Wish someone would steal it so I can get my truck back.... That is how much I honestly hate it. ive worked at a car lot and I know a lot about cars guess I just jumped the gun on this one bc the price sounded nice. I guess that is what I get, should have known better.

Worst Jeep I have Ever Owned

I have owned 3 Jeep SUV's. I bought this in 2010 with 15k on the odometer. After a few months, The entire steering system had to replaced. Tire pressure monitors on all 4 tires had to replaced within a few years. After 3 years the transmission started skipping. At the 5 year mark,at about 75k miles, the pinion and bearing went bad, resulting in the entire rear end needing to be rebuilt. The widshield washer system broke, and then the rear hatch door latch went bad. Then the license plate lights started blinking on and off. All in all in 6 years I spent about $5k in repairs, and things just keep breaking. It is a total piece of junk. I will never ever buy another Jeep. I will go back to Nissan or Toyota, of which I have owned 2 of each, and none of them ever gave me any trouble with almost 200k miles on them. The Liberty was the absolute worst vehicle purchase that I have ever made.

Hate It

This is my second Jeep and because of all the headaches of this one, I can't say I ever want to buy another one again! The gears give me problems, the clock is constantly losing time (although it's been repaired), the driver's floor vents are directed at the wall and not at my feet, and the list goes on! I'm now dealing with Corporate to get the car off my hands because I absolutely hate it!

You can tow an Xterra, for one thing

First things first - the Xterra is a certified piece of junk. In 2007 both me and a friend of mine bought off-road SUVs. He got an Xterra, I went for the Liberty. We have made two trips since then. I mean serious, serious off-road stuff. The Xterra's never made it back on its own. The Liberty has been literally indestructible. Funny, but this spring it was stoled, while my friend sold the Xterra. Now I got a shiny new Liberty. They say the interior ain't sexy. maybe, but what counts is its robust body, good mechanics. This one is the true SUV, true to its core.

My 2nd Jeep Product

I traded my 1999 Cherokee 4x4 Sport for the 2010 Liberty 4x4 Sport. I like the looks of this vehicle. So far so good. Have a small water leak in the rear that's annoying and hopefully will have that corrected soon. Vehicle feels solid on the road. I am happy with the Liberty.
