Recently reported STRUCTURE problems on 2003 Jeep Liberty

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

Driving along and rear right power window started to slip down. i tried to put it up but it made grinding noises and kept slipping. it started to rain, so rain came into vehicle. also could not go to doc appt - could not leave unsecured vehicle in parking lot. had to come home and stick a wooden wedge into window to keep it up. i was afraid window would fall into door frame and break. hard to pay attention to road while constantly looking over shoulder at window. *tr

Bottom of all four doors is rusting causing water to get in vehicle. *tr

Start with a noise when i push brakes and after two weeks the left ball joint snap and left side was wreck (paint, bumper) now i'm afraid this thing happen with right ball joint. *tr

Our 2003 jeep liberty has a defect that has a tsb on it. it was supposed to have been repaired by a dealer in may 2004. in chryslers notification to customers, they claim that the rear flip up window may open if water gets into the switch, only if vehicle is un-locked. that un-locked statement is false and we have had it happen 2 or 3 times with vehicle locked. this is a safety issue as it would allow a person to enter the vehicle through the rear lift glass, unknown to the operator and would expose the operator to theft and assault. chrysler outright lied about the unlocked condition as the lock is powered at all times and only needs to be grounded to operate. *tr

Premature rust through on window frame around rear hatch glass. most likely caused by water leaking through the rear upper brake light. *tr

I am on my 2nd repair of ball joints with my 2003 jeep liberty, i have also had a repair when water gathered and caused my front passenger side carpet to get soaked with water. my issue is related to my tires, i have had rubbing and veering to the right problems since i purchased my car a few years ago. i have taken it in questioning alignment and was told i needed to rotate every oil change which i due but the premature wear on my tires is bad. i believe it is caused from the upper and lower ball joint problems and feel my tires need to be replaced by the dealer at no charge to me. *tr
