Electric start has not been connecting. This morning I went to drive the car. Cannot drive accelerator is stuck. Cannot drive vehicle.
Right after it hit 100000 thousand miles all of my 4 wheel drive and anti skid lights all came on and will not go off very upsetting do they rig the new cars with faulty equipment that breaks or something happens right after the warranty run out! The lights stay on! I hope someone can help determine what's wrong or have a recall so I can get it fixed
I locked my vehicle and the alarm started going off. Went out to see what the problem was and it shows gate on the dashboard. I checked the gate lift and it was secure. I locked it again. A few hours later the alarm went off again. I couldn't lock it anymore without the alarm going off. While driving I cannot have the dash lit up because all of the inside lights will be on as well. After reading another complaint I assume that it is probably the same issue he had and it is the latch. I just purchased this vehicle the 17th of september and my 90 day warrenty has expired as of 1 week ago so I am going to have to pay to have this repaired.
I have had many problems with this vehicle. Apx 50k miles the water pump blew. Had it replaced - then apx 75k miles I experienced jump starts - took it to the dealer who was only doing oil changes that day. Took it to aaa repair center - they did a pressure test - found nothing wrong. Experienced the jump again - took it to a firestone mechanic who did a pressure test and "found nothing wrong". The Jeep would not start on thanksgiving - had it towed to the aaa center where I explained what had happened. They discovered that the head had blown and was now warped & camshaft broken at considerable cost, they fixed it, but now I have a p0340 code (camshaft sensor). I let the vehicle sit overnight. It seemed to start fine. After 40 miles of highway driving the oil light came on briefl
I bought this car in october 2015, with only 27,680 miles on it and I'm already experiencing issues with it. Last week the airbag light came on out of no where. When I took the car yesterday to get the recall fixed, the tech. Told me that the light stayed on and that it had nothing to do with a recall so it would not be covered. He also said that this was a module (not sure what that is) but if I wanted to fix it I would have to pay a deductible because it is not covered under warranty. My second issue is the driver's side window control buttons do not work properly, I literally have to pull really hard to get the window up. Now I know that from reading other complaints, this is a common issue in this car, I just don't want to experience a fire in the panel or any other malfunction.
Something with the starter and something with the back latch can't lock vechicle up do to the alarm will go off

airbags 5 complaints shown
Airbag light on dash lit. Dealer says ocr unit faulty and not under warranty. $521 to repair.
The airbag light is constantly on. Started at around 40000 miles. Dealer told me it's 500 to replace the ECU for it. No warranty coverage and Chrysler won't help. I find this really disturbing since it's a safety item. I had a 2004 Mazda 3 with over 200,000 miles and no airbag ECU problems.
Horn stopped working. Tested actual horn another way and it operates properly but when driving it does not work Someone mentioned it could be the clock spring. Is this covered under warranty or other reports of this malfunctioning for a recall?

The dealer (whitten brothers of richmond, 10701 midlothian turnpike, richmond, va 23235) was contacted and confirmed that the parts would not be available for the recall remedy until april of 2018. The manufacturer was contacted at 877-426-5337 and was not able to confirm when the parts were to become available. A case number was provided. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
Need orc module replaced due to a recall t56. Ran my VIN number and it states there is a recall and parts are available. Went to dealership and they state there is no parts available for my Jeep and will not be available until april 2018. Why is NHTSA stating there is a part available? I was told with this recall there is 14 different parts and my part cskdt562aa was not available.so am I going to have to risk driving my Jeep and pray I do not have a wreck? I have had a cervical fusion and very afraid to drive my only vehicle. Someone needs to step up and do something even if it takes loaning me another vehicle.

Had a problem with the transmission pan leaking. Took it to my garage and discovered the transmission oil pan was rusting from the inside out! Now my engine oil pan seems to be doing the same. Anybody else? 91k mileage
I had taken the vehicle to get looked at by Jeep twice prior due to the check engine light flashing and was informed all it needed was a software upgrade, which was completed. After the first time the engine light came and stayed on so I returned to have it looked at by the Jeep dealership again. I was told it was safe and drivable. The next day I was driving about 30 miles per hour when my check engine light began to blink and the vehicle lost power. I had to car towed back and when it was looked at again and I was informed by the dealership the head was warped due to the car overheating. I have owed the vehicle for 60,000 miles and it has never once overheated. I am unsure if the engine ran hot (the needle usually sat half way between the "hot" and "cold" ends. Now that I have had to pur

powertrain 2 complaints shown
2012 Jeep liberty, 55,000 miles. I stopped at a red light. When the light turned green I hit the gas to move forward and the truck went nowhere for about 5 seconds, when the transmission finally engaged. The truck jerked and I finally went forward. This truck has been checked with an independent mechanic then brought to the dealership as it is still under extended warranty. Very disappointing, as I love this truck. I guess I will be hesitant to buy another Jeep.
The 2012 Jeep liberty only has 56k thousand mile and transmission pan was leaking and rusting. How is this possible and why isn't this a safety hazard/product defect. There are numerous other complaints of this issue. The oil pan also showing signs of rusting as well. When the vehicle is hot and leaking fluid is this not a safety issue.
