Engine blew up at 76000 miles. Chrysler would do nothing about it.
Valve spring snapped in half.
Recently, I have a rust spot on the roof of the car, all the way through. I asked the dealership if this would be covered by the manufacturer? No, too many miles. Why does miles have to do with the body, the roof?
Just interested if anyone else with a Liberty has had these same problems?
The ignition locked and had to be replaced, and my mechanic said the parts person at the dealership said this has gone bad with all of them. Yet no recall on this?
My Jeep is paid for, and I'll probably drive it till the wheels fall off. With the economy what it is, I don't want a car payment right now.
I have always done the routine maintenance; tires, brakes, oil changes, plugs, etc, and expect these items to have to be routinely serviced, but this rust spot on the roof? An auto body man said if I check into this further, I'll probably find the same problem with this whole year of Libertys. This was not a result of anything from a consumer error. This was the steel on this.
You should check out my 2003 Liberty... The Bells and whistles write up. I had rust spots showing up in welded seams, and around the windows etc., and the vehicle wasn't even 3 years old.
Further... The highways are not over-salted here, as it gets 40 below...And I don't live by the coast.
I ended up phoning the head-office over the rust, and they basically told me to go F___ myself.
It is aggravating, when you pay out all that money and you end up with a lemon. There should be laws to protect the buyer from being taken like this...It seems the manufacturers can promise anything they want, just to sucker you into buying...And then when a problem arises, they can just sit back and laugh at you.
