Like everyone else is reporting all of my upper and lower ball joints are bad on my 2005 Liberty. With just over 125k miles I have been told that I have over $3,000 in repairs needed, front upper and lower ball joint, rear ball joints, front hub bearings and both front cv axles. This is the entire front suspension (rear lower ball joints were covered in a recall and were replaced after we had to have it towed in for breakage) . This is obvious a problem and Jeep needs to do a recall and reimburse people for their expenses.
Purchased a 2005 Jeep Liberty in the state of wisconsin, a state that has excessive cold and icy weather, streets are heavily salted. The Jeep I purchased has had several recalls, major was the rear end control arm, which the dealership repaired. 2005 Jeep Liberty also has major electrical problems which causes the engine cooling fan to short out. Having it to be frequently replaced once a year. 2nd major problem is the front right control arm assembly front upper left and right. Along with wheel hub assembly, both corrodes and can cause the steering to brake into, resulting in a lost of steering causing a major accident while driving. These major mechanical problems needs should be recalled, so they can be replaced or repaired. I've taken the Jeep to different repairs shop and was told the Jeeps are known for safety issues including electrical and control arm problems and to check for recalls.
