Consumer Description
I PURCHASED THIS LIBERTY RENEGADE IN OCTOBER OF 2006 AND HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH IT SINCE. THE MAIN SYMPTOM IS THAT WHEN IT IS (OR HAS BEEN) RAINING, THERE IS A VERY LOUD HUMMING NOISE THAT COMES FROM THE AREA OF THE WHEELS, ESPECIALLY WHEN TURNING ONE DIRECTION OR ANOTHER. I HAD THE RECALL WORK DONE ON THE LOWER BALL JOINT AND ON THE MATERIAL OF THE BRAKES (TWICE) AND THE SAME SYMPTOM IS HAPPENING. THE REASON I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE WAS BECAUSE I HAVE TO DRIVE OVER SNOW COVERED MOUNTAINS TO GET TO AIR NATIONAL GUARD DUTY, AND I CERTAINLY DO NOT FEEL VERY SAFE. I AM GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR BACK FOR A 4TH TIME AND THERE ARE ONLY 18.000 MILES ON IT. *JB
