2003 JEEP LIBERTY Structurebody Problems

On 7/10 I'm driving down the road towards the freeway. I hear a very loud pop that startles me. I pull over & discover lower ball joint has separated causing the lower control arm to slip out of socket into the wheel & than separate from wheel. I mean its still attached to the vehicle but vehicle is completely disabled. It caused significant damage to the right front wheel and somewhat minor damage to the right front fender. Theres literally metal shaving all over the road from it carving the metal out of my wheel. Get home and my boyfriend tells me that he's discovered 3 safety recalls. So we call FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automobiles) they said they would have it towed to the dealership no problem but they needed a $103 for the tow that they would reimburse later. They told us to pick any dealership. So FCA has...

REGARDING RECALL N46/NHTSA 13V-252: I RESPONDED TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP (ST. CLAIR, MI) TO HAVE THE RECALL RELATED REPAIR MADE. I WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP STAFF THE REPAIR COULD NOT BE COMPLETED AS THE VEHICLE'S FRAME WAS "TOO CORRODED." THOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS COVERED IN THE RECALL, THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT COMPLETE THE REPAIR. INSTEAD, THEY ASKED I SIGN A FORM ACKNOWLEDGING THE FRAME WAS TOO CORRODED. I REFUSED TO SIGN THAT FORM. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP, WHO ADVISED THEY FOUND NO SUCH CORROSION. *TR

I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT REGARDING THE N46 REAR STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT RECALL AFFECTING MY JEEP LIBERTY VEHICLE. I RECEIVED A FIRST RECALL NOTICE IN EARLY JANUARY 2014 AND THE RECALL CENTER TOLD ME THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AT THAT TIME. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING IN MY CAR TO TEMPE CHRYSLER JEEP ON MARCH 5, 2015 TO HAVE THE OEM TRAILER HITCH INSTALLED. AFTER AN HOUR WAIT THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED ME THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO INSTALL IT BECAUSE THE 'WELL NUTS RUSTED OFF' AND THAT REPAIRS (AT CUSTOMER'S EXPENSE) ARE NEEDED BEFORE INSTALLATION CAN BE PERFORMED. THE DEALERSHIP GAVE ME A SERVICE PROCEDURE FORM TO SIGN INDICATING THAT INSPECTION REVEALED DAMAGE OR DETERIORATION NEAR THE HITCH ATTACHMENT POINTS ARE INCAPABLE OF SUPPORTING THE PROPER INSTALLATION AND UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE SAFETY RECALL REPAIR.

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SWITCH LANES, IT FELT AS IF THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SWERVE BETWEEN LANES. I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE STEERING, THEREFORE THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO SWERVE AND EVENTUALLY SLID OFF ROAD INTO A MEDIAN FULL OF TREES. ONCE IN THE MEDIAN, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO ROLL OVER. THE VEHICLE ROLLED 3 OR 4 TIMES, EVENTUALLY COMING TO A STOP PASSENGER-SIDE DOWN. THERE WAS DAMAGE ALL OVER THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE, INCLUDING THE FRONT AND SIDES. AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN LESS THAN A YEAR AGO TO GET FIXED DUE TO A RECALL ON THE AIR BAG SYSTEM, BUT AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING CRASH. I WAS TAKEN VIA AMBULANCE TO A LOCAL TRAUMA UNIT. VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. *TR

THERE IS GROWING RUST ON THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE, ON THE ROOF PANEL, JUST ABOVE THE TAILGATE WINDOW, ON THE DRIVER SIDE. IT STARTED UNDER THE GLASS, INSIDE A WELD POINT. EVERY BODY SHOP EXPERT I HAVE EVERY TAKEN IT TO SAYS THE SAME THING: THIS WAS A BAD WELD AND WATER WAS ALLOWED TO GET IN THERE AND UNDER THE PAINT. IT STARTED WITH A TINY BUMP YEARS AGO AND IS NOW THE SIZE OF MY HAND AND GROWING. MY CONCERN IS I HAVE SEEN THIS ON AT LEAST FOUR OTHER LIBERTY JEEPS. A POST ON JEEP'S FACEBOOK PAGE ALSO TURNED UP A FEW PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I BOUGHT MY JEEP OFF OF MY GRANDPARENTS IN OCTOBER. ITS A REALLY NICE JEEP, ONLY HAS 69,000 MILES. THAT'S GOOD FOR AN 03. EVERY CAR HAS ITS PROBLEMS IM SURE. BUT MINES ON RECALL. I HAVE HAD THE AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON AND GO OFF. AND I COMES ON WHENEVER IT WANTS TO. AND IT SCARES ME BECAUSE IF THE AIRBAGS GO OFF, NOT ONLY WILL I BE MAD, BUT YOU CAN BET, ILL PROB RAISE HELL. BECAUSE I DON'T FELL SAVE DRIVING A CAR THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO HAVE THE AIRBAGS GO OFF. ALSO I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE POWER LOCK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WORKS WHEN I WANTS TO. LIKE I HAVE TO HIT IT A COUPLE TIMES TO GET IT TO WORK. NOT SUCH A BIG DEAL. ALSO THE CD PLAYER DOESN'T WORK. LIKE I'VE CHANGE ALL THE FUSES TO TRY AND GET THE DOOR...

THE SUPPORT STRAPS FOR THE FUEL TANK FAILED SUDDENLY AFTER MAKING A LEFT TURN. THE FUEL TANK CONTACTED THE ROAD SURFACE FOR A SHORT TIME (1 MINUTE) BEFORE THE VEHICLE COULD BE STOPPED. THE REAR CORNER OF THE TANK (PASSENGER SIDE) WAS DAMAGED TO THE POINT THAT FUEL LEAKED FROM THE TANK. BOTH SUPPORT STRAPS WERE BROKEN AFTER THE INCIDENT. THE TANK WAS APPROXIMATELY 1/4 FULL PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT. BOTH OF THE SUPPORT STRAPS FAILED NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE FUEL TANK. THE REMAINING PIECES OF THE SUPPORT STRAPS WERE STILL FASTENED TO THE FRAME AND THE FASTENERS WERE STILL IN PLACE AFTER THE INCIDENT. BOTH SUPPORT STRAPS WERE SEVERELY RUSTED. ALTHOUGH WE ARE DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED, WE ARE GRATEFUL THAT NO ONE WAS HURT. WE REALIZE THE OUTCOME COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE. *TR

AT ONLY 66,000 MILES ORIGINAL OWNER DIRECTLY FROM A 4-YEAR CORPORATE LEASE, A LARGE CORROSION/RUST HOLE THROUGH BOTTOM OF PASSENGER SIDE BODY FRAME RAIL HAS BEEN DISCOVERED, WHERE LOWER CONTROL ARM MEETS THE FRAME RAIL. BREAKAGE OF THE REAR FRAME RAIL IS PENDING DUE TO RUST HOLE, WOULD LIKELY CAUSE A SPONTANEOUS LOSS OF STEERING, INJURY OR DEATH. JEEP IS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. MUST SPEND $2,000 TO TRY TO REPLACE FRAME RAIL. CONTACTED CHRYSLER BUT THEY WOULD NOT FIX DUE TO YEAR OF VEHICLE, CORROSION RECALLS ARE 2004-2007. THE ENTIRE UNDERSIDE OF VEHICLE IS RUSTED AND ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE ALL OTHER COMPONENTS RUST THROUGH INCLUDING SUSPENSION AND BRAKE LINES AS WELL AS LESSER PARTS ALREADY GOING LIKE REAR WINDOW CURRENTLY RUSTED SHUT AND ENGINE PARTS WITH CORROSION BEGINNING. I LIVE IN NJ WHICH IS INCLUDED IN THE "SALT BELT" -STATES THAT USE SALTS TO DE-ICE ROADWAYS...

**URGENT** I AM REQUESTING THAT THE RECALL OF JEEPS DUE TO GAS-TANK FIRES BE ACCELERATED. I BECAME AWARE OF THE GAS-TANK FIRES INVOLVING JEEPS ON 6/17/2012. MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION IS A 2003 JEEP LIBERTY AND I AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE NOW. IF SOMEONE REAR ENDS ME, THE JEEP MAY BURST INTO FLAMES. I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT AGAINST JEEP/CHRYSLER FOR ALLOWING MYSELF AND A MILLION OTHER DRIVERS TO CONTINUE DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH A DANGEROUS CONDITION WHEN THEY HAVE KNOWN OF THE ISSUE FOR THE LAST TWO (2) YEARS!! I HAVE NOT PERSONALLY HAD AN INCIDENT BUT I WOULD LIKE THE PROBLEM CORRECTED BEFORE I AM ADDED TO THE FATALITY STATISTICS. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE DONE IMMEDIATELY WITH EITHER CORRECTION TO THE VEHICLE OR VEHICLE REPLACEMENT. JEEP/CHRYSLER OWE A RESPONSIBILITY TO ITS CONSUMERS TO REPORT UNSAFE/DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. THANK YOU *JS

BOTH REAR WINDOWS HAVE FALLEN INTO WINDOW TRACKS DUE TO FAILURE OF A $.05 PIECE OF PLASTIC. THE DEALER REPAIR IS $600 TO REPLACE WINDOW ACTUATOR WITH NO PROMISE THAT THE FAILURE WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN, SINCE THE EXACT SAME PART THAT FAILS IS THE EXACT SAME PART THAT IS REPLACED. IT IS SIMPLY A DISGRACE THAT AN INDIVIDUAL CAN "GOOGLE" THIS ISSUE ON JEEP LIBERTY'S AND SEE THAT THIS HAPPENS EVERYDAY AND HAS HAPPENED TP THOUSANDS OF OWNERS. HOW CAN CHRYSLER GET AWAY WITH THIS, AND NOT BE FORCED TO REPAIR A FAULTY PART THAT IS KNOWN TO FAIL TIME AND TIME AGAIN? *TR
