2003 Jeep Liberty Sport 4X4 review from North America
"Best decision I've ever made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing bad has happened yet. Hopefully nothing bad will happen for a very long time.
General comments?
The 3.7L V6 is great. It's powerful, quiet considering and the vehicle itself has a great ride considering it's a truck. It's great on and off road. The 4x4 is incredible especially in the 4lo range. It hauls like a tank at that point.
The exhaust note has a growl to it and the gas mileage, though it's not like a car or even some of its direct competitors, is not all that bad. I actually get 2 mpg better in the city and 1 better on the highway than its posted consumption.
Unlike many of the competitors out there, this vehicle is built on a chassis designed for it and is not a modified car chassis (Such as the CR/V or RAV4). It's incredibly solid and quiet.
