Consumer Description

THE SKYSLIDER FEATURE ON THE 2008-2012 JEEP LIBERTYS ARE A MONUMENTAL SAFETY HAZARD. I PURCHASED MY 2008 JEEP LIBERTY ON MARCH 15TH 2017. WITHIN 2 WEEKS AFTER BUYING THE SKYSLIDERS PINS BROKE AND THE SKYSLIDER FLEW BACK COVERING MY BACK WINDOW. IF I HAD NOT PULLED OVER THE SLIDER COULD HAVE COMPLETELY DETACHED AND CAUSED A MAJOR MULTI-VEHICLE COLLISION. I DISCOVERED THAT THE PINS WEAR EASILY BROKEN BECAUSE THEY ARE MADE OF PLASTIC. I AM APPALLED THAT THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A RECALL AND THE MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO CORRECT THIS, ESPECIALLY AFTER READING COUNTLESS FORUMS OF THOSE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE.
