Consumer Description

I OWN A 2008 JEEP LIBERTY THAT HAS A SKY SLIDER. I HAD OPENED THE SLIDER APPROXIMATELY FOUR TIMES (NOT EXAGGERATING) AND ON THE FOURTH TIME, WHEN TRYING TO SHUT IT BACK IT "BROKE". THE SLIDER WENT OFF TRACK AND I HAD TO MANUALLY CLOSE IT. THIS WAS ALL WHILE SITTING IN MY GARAGE! ONCE I TOOK OFF THE SLIDER WOULD WHIP IN THE WIND AND I WAS SO AFRAID IT WOULD RIP OFF I LITERALLY WAS GOING 40MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. I HAD IT FIXED FOR $2500. I HAVE NEVER OPENED IT AGAIN FOR FEAR THAT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. NOW GOING DOWN THE ROAD FROM 50MPH ON, I CAN'T EVEN HOLD A CONVERSATION IT IS SO NOISY. IF I GET BEHIND SEMI-TRUCKS THE SLIDER STARTS TO FLAP DUE TO THE FRONT OF IT STARTING TO "PEEL" BACK. I UNDERSTAND THEY HAVE QUIT MAKING THIS MODEL AND I UNDERSTAND WHY! I STRONGLY URGE A RECALL ON THIS AS MANY OF US ARE OUT OF MONEY FROM FIXING IT AND I CAN'T EVEN SELL IT. NO ONE WANTS IT BECAUSE OF THE SLIDER. NOW IM STUCK WITH A LOW CLASS VEHICLE WHILE PAYING HIGH CLASS MONTHLY PAYMENTS. I FEEL I HAVE BEEN SCAMMED! *TR
