1 Seats problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2015

I want to complain about not being able to get the recall on the passenger side air bag fixed. I was told by adam samuals Chrysler in aransas pass, texas, that the part is no longer available?????? so, I "did" have the "rear structure reinforcement" done already. And it was at that time that they told me that the part for the air bag recall was unavailable on the 2003 Jeep I have. Obsurd! I also had a problem with my driver seat assembly. I cannot make the back of my seat go up or down, which, depending on who drives the Jeep, is now a problem. The cost to replace the seat assembly, with labor, is about $500. 00! obsurd! can you help me? I have taken such excellent care of my Jeep since purchasing it in 2005, used, at don johnson motors in brownsville, texas. I have replace most small parts when needed and have my oil changes done every 3,000 miles. I cannot afford a newer vehicle at this, or in the near future for that matter either. I must keep what I have in excellent working order. Please help me with my problem.

2 Seats problem

Failure Date: 12/20/2012

The contact owns a 2003 Jeep Liberty sport. The contact stated that the seat adjuster assembly fractured and as a result, the seat was unable to be adjusted. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not offer any assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 71,705.

3 Seats problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2010

Rear brackets holding the seat to the power adjuster has failed. You can tip seat forward and when emergency breaking is needed seat shifts moderately forward. This is a hazard to me as the driver.

4 Seats problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2007

3 of the 4 driver side seat mounting brackets broke where the seat mounts to the floor. This is dangerous and I fear that driver's seat will come completely unattached from floor of vehicle in an accident, sudden stop or very soon! many others seem to have these exact same problems with seat mounting brackets. Jeep, Chrysler nor dealers will help with these problems! interior lights come on by themselves unexpectedly and sometimes will not shut off when attempts are made to switch them off. Light switch control seems sporadic and defective. I fear a short circuit resulting in electrical fire from defective light switch control.

5 Seats problem

Failure Date: 08/15/2005

During an auto accident where I was side swiped on the driver's side, the 3/4 seat on the passengers side unlatched and folded down.
