2003 Jeep Liberty Limited review from North America
"Best Value for Money in a true SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear Brake Disc made slight rubbing sound occasionally. Dealer replaced both immediately.
General comments?
We are extremely happy with the Liberty. Power is excellent. I get about 1-2 miles per gallon better than EPA estimates. Turns on a dime.
Ride is a little bit choppy ; but I like an extra couple of PSI in the tires ; so that's my own fault.
The Liberty feels as secure as Tank. Living around Detroit ; the roads are as bad as I have seen anywhere in the country. The Jeep suspension handles the ruts, bumps and holes with authority. You do not get the feeling that the Detroit roads are going to shake the Liberty apart as you do in a even a new car.
The 2-tone leather interior is very cool. Its like driving a retro Mustang as an SUV. Leather Buckets are very comfortable and seating position is great for long trips.
Value for dollar vs other SUVs is like night and day.
