general problems of the 2008 Jeep Liberty

The 2008 Jeep and years after all have a defective skyslider(as far as I know every single person I spoke with that has a sky slider had some malfunction) which seems to be a huge safety concern. This panoramic roof constantly malfunctions, the replacement parts cost almost a 1/4 of the vehicle cost and when it breaks it usually is not fixed properly. The concern is, it can come flying off at high speeds causing possible injury, also makes vehicle un-secure due to being accessibly by the roof, also causes rain, and other contaminants to enter the cabin area. I understand that Chrysler is under government protection due to it financial situation but there is no reason they can not recall, repair, or have a engineered replacement for this due to the amount of complaints and issues it has.

On the above mentioned date I was driving home from running errands and while doing so I had my sunroof open. While I was driving I decided to close my sunroof and when I did so it made a strange sound while closing. I then noticed that the sunroof had not closed properly and was still partially open. I contacted my insurance agency who suggested I bring my vehicle to one of their garages to be inspected. Upon inspection, it was determined that this was indeed not covered under my insurance plan. I was refereed to you for possible assistance.

Roughly two years ago while driving on a highway I noticed part of my sky slider moon roof started to have gaps of daylight in between it, I then noticed that the front part of my sky slider started to flip backward. When I noticed part of my sky slider was flipping backward I proceeded to get off the highway, knowing if it randomly started to flip backward it could catch wind and rip off completely hitting the vehicle behind me. I immediately drove it to the dealership to have them look at it, they basically told me this is a common problem and that it would be around $2500-$3000 to fix. I ended up taking it to a different auto shop to have it fixed at a much more reasonable price. Now, the second time happened just a few days ago, I was once again driving on the highway, (please note, I have not used this sky slider since having it repaired two years ago in fear that it would break again) and while my roof was closed I once again noticed that I could see day light between my car and my sky slider. Pulling off the highway I get out and check, only to notice that the two back ends of this roof had been completely broke off the track and had began to flap in the wind while driving. Now with fear of it ripping off completely and hitting the car behind me I am stranded. I have taken it to two dealerships since, to learn that Chrysler has discontinued making this feature, knowing the problems it has, however both dealerships told me the same thing, there was nothing they could do and once again I would need to put $2500-$3000 into fixing it, again! I'm concerned to re fix this vehicle and once again be driving on the highway when my roof starts to rip off, causing a safety hazard for anyone that might be on the highway at the time.

2008 Jeep Liberty window regulator breakage.

When it is very cold outside (10f or so) the defrost on for the front window of my 2008 Jeep Liberty does not defrost the window all the way and ice forms on the inside. You cannot see out the window, and with more then one person in the Jeep, it does not clear up all the way, no matter how long of a trip you take in the car. The window from the middle of the steering wheel to the a piller, does not clear up and you are forced to wipe off the frost by hand all the time. It is very hard to see and is unsafe.
