2004 Jeep Liberty Limited review from North America
"I love this car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far just the ball joint recall.
General comments?
The silver satin package on the interior gets smudges and smears on it very easily from dogs or spills or whatever.
Wind noise on the freeway seems a bit loud.
Seats are comfortable and car looks stylish.
Haven't taken it off-road yet, but hope to this summer assuming I can still afford to put gas in it!
Gas mileage is not great, but I've been averaging 18-20 with combined city/highway, I average it out after each time I fill up.
Owned a Jeep Wrangler years ago and I enjoy the Liberty for the fact that it is good for city driving as well as driving in the snow or mountains. I do miss the Wrangler, but I like the luxuries of the Liberty and wouldn't trade it for anything.
Wish it came w/ more standard features like leather seats and a sunroof standard on the limited edition but since I got it used I didn't get to make those choices. Also wish it had more storage compartments both up front in the passenger area and in the back (trunk) space. Possibly a hidden compartment under the floor in the trunk. I must admit that the way the back seats are situated there is quite a bit of room under them for storage while still allowing them to fold down w/o crushing things.
