NHTSA Complaint #10746900 — 2008 JEEP LIBERTY

WAS INFORMED BY MY DEALERSHIP THAT THE CROSSMEMBER THAT GOES BETWEEN THE FRAME AND HOLDS THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION IN PLACE WAS RUSTED OUT AND NEEDED REPLACING. WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE PART ON 2007 JEEP PATRIOTS, BUT NOT ON 2008 AND I'D HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. WAS TOLD NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL REPAIRED AS IT WAS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE!!. WHAT CHOICE DID I HAVE? I PAID. . . THROUGH THE NOSE FOR SOMETHING THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED HAD I BOUGHT A 2007 MODEL. I WAS GIVEN THIS WEBSITE TO MAKE A COMPLAINT. ADDITIONALLY, HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE DOOR LOCKS NOT WORKING (POP UP ON THEIR OWN WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED) AND AUTOMATIC WINDOWS NOT ALWAYS WORKING (HAD TO HAVE HAVE SOME "CYLINDER" FOR THE ELECTRONICS IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR REPLACED.) THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT STILL SHOWS 'ON' BECAUSE A PART THAT'S ON "BACKORDER" IN THE BACK BY WHERE THE GAS IS FILLED IS RUSTED AND NEEDS REPLACING.
