Tailgate Problems of Jeep Liberty

The steering got hard and felt like the ball joint on the control arms lock up ; the door locks cycle continuously and now driver door, left rear passenger door and back tailgate will not open, horn will not blow, radio will not work, and interior lights won't work. The steering problems happen while driving on highways and when making turns of any kind the slightest movement of the steering wheel will car is moving makes erratic navigation in anything other than a straight path. The door locks cycle on and off while driving and also not moving and without the car being started and is as rest without key inserted in the ignition cylinder. I am fearful for my grand children to ride in the car with me and very concerned of a failure that may jeopardize their safety.

I have a 2005 Jeep Liberty, the back tailgate will not unlock and open up. I can unlock the window and it does lift up but the tailgate will not open.

There is growing rust on the back of the vehicle, on the roof panel, just above the tailgate window, on the driver side. It started under the glass, inside a weld point. Every body shop expert I have every taken it to says the same thing: this was a bad weld and water was allowed to get in there and under the paint. It started with a tiny bump years ago and is now the size of my hand and growing. My concern is I have seen this on at least four other Liberty Jeeps. A post on Jeep's facebook page also turned up a few people with the same problem.

I have a 2004 Jeep Liberty that I have owned since 8/21/07. About 1 month ago I started having problems with my tailgate not opening, but the glass does will open. It remains locked, but I hear the actuator working and I know the recall on this vehicle has been completed in 12/2006.
