Letter from ftc forwarding correspondence from congressman mchugh on behalf of constituent concerning his complaint with Chrysler corporation regarding his Jeep Liberty. The consumer stated the check engine light illuminated due to a faulty oxygen sensor and a crunching sound was heard whenever the consumer made a right turn. The dealer informed the consumer the crunching sound was a result of power steering fluid leaking and the repair would cost $825. 00. A new rack and pinion gear and pressure lines were needed.

My 2005 Jeep Liberty crd has a transmission "shudder" and looses power between 55 and 60 mph. This appears to be a common problem with crd owners and Jeep has issued several TSB's that consist of computer reflashes that have not corrected the problem. I am to the point where I do not transport my children in this vehicle because it looses power at 55 mph on highway merges and cruising. I am very concerned with the safety, because other crd owners have experienced transmission failure following the "shudder" symptom. Jeep only made 11,000 crd's (discontinued in 2006, however still part of their marketing campaign!) and the owners are having a difficult time getting them to respond to several safety problems. The erg valve is another issue. Mine has been replaced once, other crd owners have had multiple replacements. My Jeep crd totally lost power when the egr valve failed. It was on an interstate traveling 65 mph. Luckily I had a clear path to coast to the shoulder.

On September 19, 2005 smelled gas when the vehicle stalled, but it did turn over. The vehicle had been sitting for two days . Consumer got back into vehicle and smelled gas again, however, consumer drove the vehicle, and then parked it for about an hour and that was when the air pressure cover blew out and the air filter was held down with metal clamps.

Check engine light keeps coming back on after repair. Has been repaired 3 times over the past few months and it came back on again 2 days after it had been repaired the last time. Each and every time the causal part is diagnosed as an O2 sensor, and yet replacing them does not seem to solve the problem for more than a few days.
