My airbag light came on a few weeks ago and hasn't stopped going on and off it makes that annoying sound the whole trip every time I drive, the heat won't cut on it blows cold air I've had it looked at and repaired allegedly but it still won't blow hot air, the car keeps stalling and it has completely shut off on me 3 times while I have been driving once on a busy freeway I was luckily by grace of god able to turn the wheel off to the side of the road before it locked I have a 2 year old daughter and I'm currently pregnant this is insane and nobody can tell me what's wrong with it or how to fix any of these problems I got a loan for this car so now I'm stuck with this death trap, and now I'm seeing all these complaints about the same thing I'm baffled by the neglect and lack of concern or care for customers and there families who ride in their vehicles safety, I would think it would be a no brainer to recall the whole car if you can't fix the safety concerns or don't have a solution, I need a car to drive I'm wasting so much money on rentals because I have no options with this Jeep I need a solution this is crazy I rely on my vehicle for work as I do uber eats and grub hub I need help!!

I have a Jeep Liberty 2011 w/ a sky slider roof- where the entire roof is fabric and slides back. It stopped working & wouldn't shut on Tuesday and the only place that could put it into a garage and look at it before the rain- was the dealership. I heard back from them today- they no longer make the part that's broken. They were able to shut the roof, but I can never open it again B/C it won't shut and I'll have to pay them $243 again to close it. I'm reading online that this is a common problem ' and even when the roof is shut it- wind can get under it and blow completely off- potentially causing accidents if it were to rip completely off. I can't believe this hasn't been recalled. I know its common for places to stop making parts after 10 years, but there should be some resolution offered to shut your roof with reassurance it won't rip off and hurt someone. I'm pretty much scared to drive my Jeep over 50 mph now and Jeep basically just threw me back out in the world with no way to fix it because they have no way to fix it. This is no way for a company to perform. I was a loyal Jeep owner since 1997! here are some pics of other peoples roofs flying off.

The doors do lock through the electrical system. You can manually lock and unlock the vehicle but can not lock/unlock through the electrical system. Cd player also does not work. I believe the issue may be stemming from the fuse box under the hood, I have checked all the fuses and everything shows to be good.

Currently my 2011 Jeep Liberty (jet) is blowing cold air from the vents on the driver side. Blowing warm air through the vents on the passenger side. No heat at all coming out on the floor no matter what dial I turn it to, no heat while the car in sitting or in motion. This began a few years ago and it's gotten worst. I live in Michigan and it's about to get cold.

The alternator on the vehicle went which affected the battery and the computer system, car nearly caught on fire. The repair person said this should have been listed as a recall because a certain fuse could have avoided the problem. The computer is on back order, going on 3 weeks and this appears to be a ongoing problem with these vehicles.

Tamara recall, the converter that switches from heat to cold is not working. I don't have any heat coming from the vents just cold air and sometimes lukewarm air but not hot air. I really don't know the name of the part but I know it is under the dashboard and I have seen video on U tube about how this part malfunction and it seems to be a big problem with Jeep.

I purchased the vehicle from the original owner. It is an immaculate vehicle. However, the sky glider had leaked sometime in the past ownership terribly. Stained inside. They told me they had replaced the seal at some point. It still leaks terribly. When it rains, wash it, etc. I'd like to know what to do to permanently fix the leak

While driving the window driver side suddenly dropped and smoke came out of the driver door panel. Smoke increased rapidly and he began to emanate from the door. Once pulled over flames began coming through the plastic portion of the door where the window and door lock controls are located.

I have a 2011 Jeep Liberty with a sky roof, our veh barely has 85K miles on it. We are having an issue with the roof leaking, wind noise and now out sky slider has broken. We had no had any issues prior, one day when we were trying to open the sky slider it would not open. When it finally did open, it got stuck while we were closing it and now we have a giant hole in our roof because it will not close.
