Problems with 2003 Jeep Liberty POWER TRAIN

New 2003 jeep liberty with 64 odometer miles has extreme vibration when driving between 45-55 mph. the dealership replaced the front and rear driveshafts, but this did not correct the problem. i have been without my new vehicle for 5 business days. *nlm

2003 jeep liberty sport (4x4) vibrates excessively between 45-55 mph. dealership replaced rear drive shaft, which did not fix the problem. this is my second jeep liberty with the same problem. the first was a 2002 jeep liberty sport (4x4) with a vibration problem. the dealership replaced the front and rear drives shafts on this vehicle, which did not fix the problem. this vehicle was replaced by chrysler under the wisconsin lemon law. my concern is that this is a design flaw with the jeep liberty that chrysler does not have a fix for.

Vehicle operates properly through 3rd gear prior to the torque converter clutch engaging. once the torque converter clutch engages, there is a noticeable _x001c_slipping._x001d_ this is evident at/and above 50 mph, both on 3rd gear (with od off) and on 4th gear (with od on.) the _x001c_slipping_x001d_ is not intermittent; it occurs once the vehicle is hot, and when there is a increase in engine load, such as when going up hills (long grade) or when the throttle pressure is increased. it is also most noticeable with the air conditioning on. the _x001c_slip_x001d_ stops (or at least i do not feel it) once the tcc disengages. *jb

Transmission is making clunking noise when shifting from park, dealer said all are like this. *ak

Transmission is making clanking vibration/noise when slowing to a stop. the vehicle is not even 1 year old and has been to two different dealers for resolution. problem still present. *la

While driving between 40 - 55 mph, vehicle driveline severly vibrates.

While driving vehicle suddenly launched forward without the accelerator pedal being depressed. vehicle was serviced several times, and diagnostic tests were performed before the dealership located the cause of the problem. transmission was bad and needed to be replaced. *ak

The vehicle vibrated excessively while driving. the dealer diagnosed the origin of the problem to the transmission but was unable to correct it. *nlm, returned usps, 2nd attempt made 06/13/07 failed. *lj

Vehicle experienced acceleration surges. *mr the surging occurred at random times above 25 mph. the acceleration surge also occurred with the cruise control engaged. also the manual transmission would not shift into fourth gear at highway speeds. if a shift was missed, the transmission winded up but no power was transferred to the wheels. with the clutch engaged, the transmission could not be put into gear until the transmission winded down. *tt *jb

2003 jeep liberty purchased in 2002 has had problem since purchase. the vehicle acts like it is in 4-w drive when it isn't. when attempting to make even gentle turns there are loud cracking sounds and grinding noises. this does not happen all of the time and will go many months without the problem. there have been multiple witnesses to the noise and the hopping of the car when attempting to make the turns. hopping is most evident when attempting to pull into a parking spot even when making a wide turn to avoid a hard/tight turn into the space. the noise and hopping again occur when trying to pull out of the parking space. this happens in 4-w drive as well as when out of 4-w drive. i have reported this to the dealer who does not record my complaint but only states that i can pay for a check of the transmission if i want. they stated that it was common for jeep liberty vehicles to hop and make this noise when in 4-w drive. now that my car is out of warranty it has gotten worse and the problem was never fixed. please investigate this problem before someone is killed. i lost a son last year. i cannot afford to have my transmission, transfer case, etc. repaired because i am struggling financially. just recently the light has stayed on stating i am in part-time 4-w even though i am not. the perform service light has stayed on ever since the very first service on my vehicle in 2002. the dealer does not fix anything. during one service the vehicle bolts were left off and i was told that the car didn't really need those they were just to prevent rattling. they also charged me for a fuel and air filter during a service which was not put on my car. when taking my car to the firestone dealer the very next day to have tires put on they showed me my filters (still on the car) and told me to report it. the dealer is the lithia chrysler jeep dealer located at 3223 mill street in reno, nevada. they should be investigated as to unethical practices.

While driving between 40 to 50 mph the entire vehicle vibrates. dealer notified. please provide additional information. ph

While driving, vehicle shuts off. dealer states that vehicle needs a new fuel injector pump. vehicle has been repaired five times for the same problem. please provide additional information. ph

There is a humming noise coming from the truck when reaching 60mph also the jeep vibrates at that speed. i have taken it to warnock in cedar knolls after spending more than 3 days back and forth they advised it was the driveshaft, left the jeep with warnock only to find out that the condition is under investigation, so the truck is not fixed and i can't take it more than 60mph..*ak
