Alternator/generator/regulator problems of the 2004 Jeep Liberty

Both rear passenger and driver side window keep failing, the window regulator assembly keeps going up and I had to replace them twice ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#.

I purchased my 2004 Jeep Liberty in 2009 with 16k miles on it. In 2010 I had to have the passenger's side window regulator replaced at $200. In 2011 the back driver's side window had the same issue, but now the repair was quoted at being at least $400. In late 2016 the back passenger window did the same thing. This week March 2017 the driver's side front window has done the same thing and no longer stays up. All of these have happened while driving either on a city street or highway while moving.

The contact owned a 2004 Jeep Liberty. While driving 55 mph, flames emitted from the front end of the vehicle. The contact was able to coast over to the side of the highway. The contact was not injured and a police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The technician diagnosed that the alternator harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 200,000.

Simply rolled up my window then it stopped and window fell down. Took off the door panel to examine and the cable still moved but made a lot of noise and window didn't move. This is the second time I've had this issue. I replaced the rear passenger window regulator when I purchased the car and now that one is messed up also. The one that recently broke is the front right window. Also my head lamp is showing issue with not coming on and I've already tested the stirring column switch.

Driver side back left window regulator has failed twice. From my research, this is a common problem for the Jeep Liberty.

The window regulator has failed in the window. This is a well known problem. Just sitting at a light and the window falls down because of a small plastic piece that holds the window up breaks.

June 13, 2013, third window regulator to fail within one year on my Jeep Liberty. Failed window regulators are front left and right windows, and left rear window. Very frustrated and disappointed with Chrysler and how they are handling a known issue. After speaking with several employees and manager at the Chrysler dealership. They have told me that Chrysler is aware of the defect but they are unable to repair the failed window regulators at no cost to me. Therefore I continue to drive my Jeep Liberty without any working windows which presents a safety issue in the event of an accident. I have no way of getting out of my vehicle and it's an inconvenience to pull up to drive thru without being able to roll down my windows. Chrysler, I'm sure you have heard this complaint many times. I would greatly appreciate if you would take care of your customer base and do a recall on these window regulators. Thank you.

I was sitting at a red light waiting on light to turn, car completely shut off, smoke was coming out from under the hood. An emergency vehicle was sitting in front of me and they got out with fire extinguishers. When I raised the hood the fire flamed up more. There was a recall o4v337000 on the alternator could cause a fire under the hood. I never received a letter on this. I received a recall 2 0r 3 years ago and took it to Jeep dealer in kodak, TN. But it was not for this recall.

The rear drivrs side window regulator needs replcement as it is defective. The extended warranty nor the dealership will cover this very common defect which will cost me $450.

The window motor regulators fail extremely often--on average, one fails every 6 months. This sometimes happens while driving, and the window crashes down into the door. It is extremely distracting to hear the window fall while you are driving, the sudden thud could distract the driver enough to cause a crash, and any children or pets in the car are not only exposed to the elements, but are at risk of falling out of the vehicle. Other times, the window falls while the car is parked and the car is open for the world to enter. I have spent thousands of dollars on window motor regulators for this vehicle. I purchased it used in February 2009, the first window motor regulator failed less than 90 days later and one has failed every 6 months since. Chrysler refuses to acknowledge my requests or rectify the situation, despite a dozen mechanics having told me that this is a known defect.

We have had repeated failures on all of our window regulators since we purchased our Jeep. The first occurrence was in 2006. I would have to pull our repair file to get the other dates. We currently have another window out, it is taped up to keep things out. This is the window in the back behind the front passenger seat. This has already been replaced. The replacements don't even hold up. We are senior citizens. No one "plays" with the windows. We use our ac so windows are not opened and closed. They just fall down on their own. We can not afford to keep replacing the window regulators. The dealer said he thought there was a recall on this because it is such a big problem ,but I don't see anything here except window regulator complaints. When are they going to take this problem seriously?.
