Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“After driving several minutes on a city street, multiple dash light come on, ABS, traction control, esp, and bas. This happens once a week. This problem seems to occur on days above 75 degrees. From the research I have done. I believe its the steering angle sensor / clock sensor. This appears to be a common problem as it was easy to find the information on utube.”

“I started my 2010 Jeep Liberty and it started revving up on its own, my foot was not on gas and it just kept revving up. I put it in drive with my foot on the brake and it took off on its own while both my feet were on the break. I put it in neutral and turned it off for a few minutes. When I restarted it, it continued to rev up on its own.”

“Jeep Liberty sport 2010, every time I drive my car up hill slips or looses power in the wheels very easily when it encounters few gravel or crushed stones and small wet areas. It is a very scary experience, to help my car to go up hill more easily I drive the car extremely slow, it does help but I wish I could drive it up hill a little bit faster, the normal way.”

“The display light for the gate comes on, even though the gate is closed. The interior lights come on as well. If my car is locked, the alarm will sound. Apparently there is some issue with the censor in the latch. This is happening to a lot of 2010 Jeep Liberty's. When I was driving the gate light came on, along with the interior lights, however, the gate was closed. *the first time it happened - my vehicle was parked/shut off; *the second time it happened - I was driving me vehicle.”

“Over 2 weeks ago, I was coming home with my 2 year old, and as we came off the highway, the battery light came on, then a bunch of other random lights on the dash popped on and beeped at me. I heard the car die right as I coasted into a gas station. Tried to jump with 3 different cables and it wouldn't jump. Next day, replaced the battery and it started up fine. Drove to work (about 5 miles) and the battery light came on again as I came across a hill. More dash lights came on and it died again. …”
