1 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 05/05/2014

This is the second Jeep Liberty I have owned and in the past 2 years I have had to replace every window regulator in both of them. From what I have read online, this is an on-going situation. One window regulator I had fixed a year ago just broke again yesterday. I work at a prison and my vehicle must remain locked and secure at all times or I cannot drive it to work, and it is a headache wondering if the temporarily taped up window (until the part comes in) will fall down into the door and I cannot drive it until it is fixed. Please recall these things.

2 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2011

The rear windows on my 2003 Jeep Liberty stopped working. They would not move up or down using the buttons. The only way to keep them up is to put tape on them. At first the only time the window would come down was when I would be driving. Then they would not stay up at all. This created a problem when it was raining. There were times when my entire backseat was wet because of the windows fallen down. A mechanic told me it was the window regulator. I just had a mechanic repair one of the windows. It costed me $385 dollars to get one window repaired. I could only afford to get one done, so I still have tape on the other window. The dealership quoted me an estimate of $600. Also, I am concerned because other owners said they have had to change out the regulators more than once. I would not be able to keep replacing those regulators. And I do have the old part from the one window that was changed.

3 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 04/15/2003

Groaning/grinding noise in the back wheels at slow speeds, mostly when leaving a parking garage, stop lights, parking lots. Brake pedals not depressed at the time. Noise increases when temperature is low and humidity is high. Noise started at 1,000 miles (less than a month after the date of purchase). Taken to dealership who at first could not duplicate the problem. I recorded the noise several times and played to the dealership service manager. In for repairs for the same purpose over 10 times during the 1st year, without success. Issue is now with Chrysler engineering who appears not to be in any hurry to fix the problem. Dealership does not follow-up and does not communicate on the status of this issue. Also never received the recall notice. Took the car in for the recall service after seing your notice, and was told it might take a couple of months for the recall notices to get out. It's been 6 months, and no recall notice as yet. Other issues with this car are another rattling noise that they can't fix. A weather strip on the driver's window that had to be replaced 7 times (so far) because it keeps coming loose. Excessive vibration when on the highway at speeds of 70 mph. Wind noise coming from every direction, can't hardly hear the radio. Radio quality is so bad I can't use it. Have to play cds instead. And Chrysler won't do a thing to remediate the problems.
