NHTSA Complaint #10519783 — 2009 JEEP LIBERTY

I BOUGHT MY JEEP BRAND NEW IN APRIL OF 2009. WHEN IT WAS JUST A FEW MONTHS OLD, I STARTED EXPERIENCING A PHANTOM 'DING' THAT WOULD NORMALLY BE ASSOCIATED WITH LOW FUEL, CHECK ENGINE, ETC. BUT WHEN THE DING WOULD SOUND, NO WARNING LIGHTS WOULD APPEAR. TRIED TO HAVE DEALER FIND PROBLEM, THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE SINCE IT WAS SO RANDOM, SO IT NEVER GOT FIXED. AROUND APRIL OF THIS YEAR (2013) THE DING STILL CONTINUES TO DRIVE ME NUTS, AND NOW MY 'ESPOFF,' '4WD,' 'SERVICE 4WD,' AND '4LOW' LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF AT RANDOM;SOMETIMES EVERY TEN SECONDS WHILE I'M DRIVING. ALSO, MY RADIO/NAV SCREEN SYSTEM WILL RANDOMLY TURN ITSELF OFF AND RESTART. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID THEY HAVE GOTTEN THIS SAME COMPLAINT FROM A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE, BUT THERE IS NO RECALL ISSUED. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WITH THE STEREO ALONE IS A $1,200 FIX AND THAT I'M BETTER OFF GOING TO A CAR AUDIO DEALER AND GETTING SOMETHING CUSTOM DONE. I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE ISN'T A RECALL FOR THIS, IT IS VERY DISTRACTING TO HAVE ALL THESE LIGHTS COMING ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING, NOT TO MENTION UNNERVING. ALSO, MY LIFT GATE WINDOW HAS ALWAYS LEAKED AROUND THE SEAL, EVEN AFTER THE DEALER REPLACED IT. THEY SAID THEY TESTED IT UNDER HIGH PRESSURE WASH AND IT DIDN'T LEAK, THEN A FEW DAYS LATER IT RAINED AND THERE WAS WATER ALL OVER THE INSIDE OF MY LIFT GATE. *TR
