Problems with 2006 Jeep Liberty VISIBILITY

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. while driving approximately 30 mph, the rear driver side window fell into the door panel abnormally. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics where the technician replaced the window. approximately one year later, the failure recurred on the rear passenger side window. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where the window was replaced. the approximate failure mileage was 50,000. form returned no change

All the window regulators in my 2006 jeep liberty have failed and i am on my 2nd go round now. had one replaced on 7/12 and on 7/14 had another one fail. i simply cannot afford the $1000 to fix both within a 3 day time period. i'm sorry - this is really unacceptable for chrsyler to have not issued a recall. it is a safety issue! .because of the high cost involved that i just couldn't afford i had a friend "rig" yet another of the windows only a few short months ago and now it cannot be opened at all. please do something about this issue. i see hundreds of other complaints online from jeep owners that have had the same problem over and over. thank you for listening! *tr

While driving on 75n with no warring my back passenger window made a loud grinding noise then just fell down and would not go back up. i had two puppies in the back seat and while i was driving they were trying to go by the window. drove 5 miles like this to the nearest exit and was fortunate to find a tuffy auto service store. the window was diagnosed as a faulty regulator and i was told it would be $400 to fix it and about 3 hours. i could not afford that at the time, so i duck taped plastic to the window and drove another 2 hours north on 75 to get home. this was very scary and after a server safety issue! i have contacted jeep/chrysler's complaint line and after two days have still not received a call back from a case manager. i was absolutely shocked to discover that there are close to 200 complaints on this very situation on carcomplaints.com and that jeep is not backing their products. i am waiting to hear from them to see how this will be covered. this truly could have been very serious with the death of my dog and what if a baby was back there. in many cases the window's are actually shattering with out warning as they fall. *tr

I own a 2006 jeep liberty and have had it for approximately 2 years. during that time i have had to replace 3 of the 4 power windows due to mechanism failure. tonight one of the windows i have replaced with manufacturers repair kit has broken so i will need to replace again. i have checked on the internet and this appears to be a prevalent problem with the jeep liberty and one that the manufacturer should be responsible for a recall and replacement with reliable metal parts instead of plastic. at $500 a window i can't afford to continue to keep replacing windows. *tr

The back windows fall down randomly and won't stay up unless they are taped. the mechanic stated it was a faulty regulator. jeep is aware of this, however, they refuse to acknowledge the issue. this is a serious safety issue as it is random, occurring while driving and when the car is parked. *tr

I own a 2006 jeep liberty, for no apparent reason the rear passenger window just fell down. i went to the dealer and they told me this is happening all the time. it seams to me that this would be a safety concern if you have children. the regulators break causing the window to fall (per mechanic). *tr

Power windows on 2006 jeep liberty - 38,000 miles - window drops halfway down, when try power control it grinds and window will not move up or down with control, window falls into door. this is my third window & it is the regulator again. it is unconscionable that chrysler/jeep has not issued a recall (or has not been directed to by an authority) when it is so very obvious this is a manufacturer's defect. *tr

Jeep liberty 2006 left rear window crashed down while driving. regulator broken found that there where many complaints on this with jeep. *tr

While driving the car the windows fall down and possibly break under right circumstances and all eventually fall down and don't work when fall make big bang scares the driver at high speed you think you hit someone!! *tr

I have a 2006 jeep liberty with approximately 55k miles on it. i use my windows very infrequently. in the past two weeks both the front driver's side and front passenger side window regulators have broken. i have seen on a couple web sites that this is a known and recurring problem with this model. *tr

Jeep liberty window regulator failing multiple times. safety compromised due to potential invasion, climate issues, etc. i've had several windows replaced and they continue to break, now of course the warranty is expired. this is a serious defect that jeep apparently is unwilling to recall to date. *tr

2006 jeep liberty. the window regulator failed again, this is the third time on the passenger side front. every window has failed at least once, some twice. this should be recalled. i have searched the internet for the last couple of years on this and have found hundreds of similar owners with this problem yet nothing seems to be done about it. where is the quality and care for the consumer? *tr

While driving my 2006 jeep liberty the rear passenger driver side window fell down. while in the up position. i already had the driver side window fixed under warranty. since i live in a cold climate state this could cause a safety issue if the window were to break in climate weather. *tr

Rear drivers side window slid into the door with no warning. took it to the dealership and was told it was the window regulator and it would cost $500 to fix it. *tr

My 2006 diesel jeep liberty crd 4x4 windows in the rear both stopped working. first one side quite rolling up and down and then on june 4th 2010 the left rear window wouldn't go up and made a loud roaring noise and clicking and my son got soaked from the rain and now it still won't roll up. also, the esp and traction control light came on and is staying on. *tr

I have had to replace window regulator and window two times.(once on rear passenger window and one on rear driver side window) due to regulator failure. in both cases window slipped into the door. in both cases window and regulator were replaced. old parts remained at the dealership repair shop. *tr

2006 jeep liberty rear driver's side window free falls into door. this is the 2nd time this issue has occurred on the very same door. the first time, it was fixed by the dealer at no cost (mileage: 19000, feb., 2008). this time, after explaining that the problem was exactly the same as the first time, the dealer asked for $90 to diagnose the problem, which i found ridiculous. after a very brief internet search, i found that this is an extremely common problem, which makes it even more infuriating that the dealer wanted me to pay them to diagnose the problem. the dealer finally offered to make the repair for $100, which i declined. this is a clear safety issue, not to mention a security issue. when this happens when the car is in motion, it causes the driver to be distracted, which can -- and eventually will -- lead to an accident. on the security side, this issue can occur at any time, even when the vehicle is not being driven, which could lead to a window being open without the owner's knowledge. chrysler and the government regulators need to start treating this like the safety issue that it is and issue a recall. it makes no sense that an owner should have to pay to have a clearly defective item replaced, especially when its going to be replaced with virtually the same part, which will eventually fail again. *tr

My 2006 jeep liberty has a serious problem with the window regulators and lift plates. june 1, 2010, was the first regulator to go out. the second one went out shortly after that. now the first one has dropped again. the first time, i paid over $400 for the repair. the second one was covered by chrysler completely, and they reimbursed me $333 for the first repair when the second repair was done. they are going to "consider" reimbursing me for this third one, but i have to jump through all of their hoops for it to be considered. this is a serious problem that is affecting many many liberty owners. there should be an extended warranty on these regulators and plates. my daughter is driving this car and should not have to be concerned with whether her windows are going to stay up. this is a serious safety issue. nhtsa should demand that chrysler either recall these or at bare minimum put an extended warranty on all libertys for these parts. ugh. this is ridiculous. oh, and we bought the car used in november 2009. for all we know, multiple regulators might have been put on this car in its first 36,000 miles before we bought it. *kb

Yesterday my drivers side rear window made a loud popping noise and the window fell down into the door. when i attempted to roll it back up it made a loud grinding noise. i am going to have to replace the power window assembly including the regulator and motor. this is the 3rd time i have had to replace one on this jeep. *tr

Rear window regulator failed again only this time with the seven month old secured in her car seat in the rear seat this time. this is not the first time one of these windows has failed when the switch is activated. they have failed twice before in this vehicle over the period we've owned it. this vehicle was purchased new from the dealer and has been an ongoing problem with the windows. *tr

Window regulator failure. window spontaneously falls down. have had this problem 5 times now (obviously one window twice). chrysler needs to fix it. *tr

Both rear regulators have quit working, leaving my jeep and myself vulnerable to others being able to easily enter the vehicle. we have replaced one and will be replacing the other next week due to the cost. as if that wasn't enough, the sun roof just quit working and stuck partially open. i hardly ever use it, so it did not break due to use. we took it into the dealership and it will cost $1300.00 dollars to repair, which we cannot afford. also, fuel quite often overflows when fueling, spilling gasoline down the side of my jeep as well as spraying out onto the person fueling. it does not matter how slowly we put the gasoline in, it still overflows. *tr

I was driving home with my wife and 7 month old baby in her car seat while driving, all of a sudden the rear passenger side window completely drops inside the door. i'm very upset about this due to if the window would've broke or shattered it could've hurt our new born baby. i have since looked online and have seen thousands of similar cases with the same problem (2006 jeep liberty). i don't know why chrysler has not recalled this problem with the windows when soo many people are having the same re-occurring issue. im stuck now with a bill from the dealer due to the warranty does not cover the whole cost of the repair which they explained that i need to replace the motor, window regulator also the glass. keep in mind i jus purchased this vehicle in january 4 months later im already having problems. *tr

2006 jeep liberty- vehicles window tracks defective with plastic clips. window would fall down due to defective plastic window clips holding windows onto tracks. i would put the power window up and the next thing the window would fall down. the dealership informed me it would cost $400 to fix the problem. i've seen numerous complaints online but no recalls were put into effect. the cost to repair this defective product is $400 each window. also the original window that's is still good cannot be reattached according to dealership service department. i was informed that the new part would include the track and window together. so what do i do with the original window that is still good. this problem needs to be address. i feel owners of 2006 jeep liberty's should not have to paid due to a defective plastic clip. please have chrysler jeep do a recall on this problem it needs to be addressed. *tr

I had my 2006 jeep liberty in my driveway and looked out my bedroom window and noticed that my rear window was wide open in the rain!! i'm glad this didn't happen in a high crime area! anyway, brought it to the dealer the next day after wrapping plastic over it with duct tape and had it repaired under extended warranty (47,000k). the dealer said it was very common in that vehicle. i explained that i'm lucky it didn't happen on the highway with small children in the back seat. two weeks later, the opposite rear window began to drop into the door well after hearing a popping sound which distracted me. this is clearly a safety issue and should be corrected by chrysler. i would also like to get my $200 deductible reimbursed for this inconvenience. thank you. *tr

We purchased a used jeep liberty 2006 several months ago. this spring we rolled down the rear windows and couldn't roll them up. in fact, the rear windows seem to be disconnected from the window mechanism and can freely descend. i had to wedge them in place to keep them up. in arranging to have these fixed we were told by service personnel at corwin churchill motors in bismarck, north dakota that this has been a problem with jeep libertys and that no safety recalls for these defective windows have been issued. this seems to be a safety hazard for children or pets. if the window were to freely descend a child or pet could potentially be injured from a fall out of the vehicle. i have discussed this issue with the injury prevention director at the north dakota department of health who suggested i submit this complaint to your office. *tr

My 2006 jeep liberty has had the window regulators fail with the window falling back into the door unexpectantly while driving. all four of the regulators have been replaced. the rear drivers side regulator has been replaced twice and now has broken again for a third time. no warning signs are noted prior to the failure. so far it has only happened during good weather. it could cause an accident if it were to happen during inclement conditions. the first two failures were repaired under warranty with the same faulty parts. the last three repairs were performed by myself as the vehicle was out of warranty. jeep has not redesigned the part but only replaces the failed regulator with the poorly designed orriginal equipment. the component which fails each time is a plastic piece which holds the window and connects to the regulator cable. this plastic piece fails even with minimal to no use of the window. the rear windows in my jeep have almost never been rolled down and still fail. i do not have any of the prior failed window regulators but the last failure has not been repaired yet and would be available for inspection. below under the "equipment information" heading and then subcategory "model", i was given several model numbers of which i have no idea so i picked the first one. *tr

Driving vehicle, rolled down the driver side rear window with power window button, attempted to roll window up later and heard a "pop" sound. arrived home, removed the interior door panel, noticed the window slide regulator had broken from the plastic. used zip ties to keep window held in the up position, rendering the window useless. unable to afford to have it fixed. several months later, rolled down the passenger side rear window and experienced the exact same thing as above. november 12, 2012, wife is driving home from work, rolled down the passenger front window and experienced again what happened to the last two instances. attempted to contact chrysler support, was told to get an inspection from a dealership and then contact them back. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4. the contact stated that as she attempted to open the rear driver's side window, the window exhibited a loud, abnormal screeching noise. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection where they stated that the regulator needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. the manufacturer was notified and stated that the vehicle was not under warranty or recall. the failure mileage was 17,110. ..updated 12/06/12 *bf the consumer stated the second window failedon the rear driver side in october 2012 repaired 11/19/2012. updated 12/07/2012 *js

Front right passenger window regulator failed. *tr

All four electric window motors have failed at least once, some more than once. this appears to be a known issue for jeep liberty's and warrants an investigation and recall notice as repair of this known defect can be as costly as $350-500. *tr

I have a 2006 jeep liberty. the other day i heard a noise when i was letting the window down. the window was stuck and wouldn't go down or up. i got out of my jeep and touched the rear passenger window and the window moved up and down when i tried to let the window up. i had to place card board in the window's frame to keep the window up. the next day the window fell into the window's frame and i can't get it out. this is my second night with my rear window down in my jeep. i don't have the money to repair the window right now and i'm afraid that a thief will enter my vehicle. i was surprised that this could be happening to a 2006 vehicle. i decided to research the issue on the internet and was surprised to find out that this was a common and expensive problem with jeep liberty's. why are jeeps not being recalled due to this dangerous and expensive problem? *tr

The power window on the right rear and the left rear doors have failed. the regulator was defective on the right rear door and was repaired by the dealer while under warranty but it still cost me $100. now the left rear power window does not want to raise the window and it is no longer under warranty. *tr

2006 jeep liberty window regulators are just plain garbage. i just had my second one fail and i rarely ever move my windows. i was driving down the freeway, when a child passenger activated the window switch. there was a loud cracking sound and the window fell from fully closed position down into the door in fully open position. some kid will fall out of a window one of these days and die because of this. there are complaints all over the web about these things failing while jeeps are parked and unattended. why has there not been a recall on this obviously inferior and dangerous design? *tr

This has caused great inconvenience, not to mention concern. i'm a single mom of a toddler and the rear driver's side window regulator of my 2006 jeep liberty broke. i don't open this window often, since my passenger is in the back alone. i now have to collect $500+ to repair this problem that can become very serious, very quickly. in addition, my car is now accessible to vandals. is chrysler waiting for a very serious accident to occur before approving this recall? being proactive can save a life or a body part for that matter! *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty 4x4. while driving at approximate speed of 55 mph, the passenger side window suddenly fell into the bottom of the door panel. the dealer advised the window and window motor would need to be replaced at the contacts expense. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 50,000 and the current mileage was 51,618. updated 08/12/10 *bf the consumer stated the dealer agreed to the repair/replacement at no cost. updated 08/17/10. *jb

Drivers side rear window falls down. *tr

Hvac in air conditioning went out i'm told because of mileage that it's not being fixed it was a recall and i feel it should be replaced. *tr

Multiple repeated failures of power windows, most recently left rear on or about 5/1/2010. we have had to have the same problem repaired on multiple occasions. door fell into window when husband was being admitted to health south rehabilitation hospital two years ago, and neither dealership not extended warranty coverage would cover an emergency repair. we live at an altitude of over 8,000 feet and my husband has had surgeries for brain aneurysms and for lung cancer, which has left him in fragile health. we bought out jeep liberty after his surgeries because he liked the multiple passenger side handles on the renegade model. when a window fails to function properly, it is a major problem for an older man who is very sensitive to cold. this is a known problem that should be addressed by the manufacturer. are we just waiting for a vulnerable person to pass away from exposure? *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. after rolling down the driver side window, the contact noticed that the window would not go back up. the other three windows had previously been repaired for the same failure. the vehicle had not been inspected at the time of the complaint. the current and failure mileages were approximately 23,000.

The driver's side window in my 2006 jeep liberty fell down and will not go up. it was a safety hazard to drive the freeways (the only way for me to get home from los angeles) in the rain with a window that malfunctioned. the dealership already fixed this problem once, and twice is unacceptable. *tr

I own a 2006 jeep liberty. this is the third window regulator replaced in this vehicle. my jeep only has 43234 miles on it. the first 2 were covered under warranty. this last was the rear left window. hardly used. had to replace the regulator plus put a new window in because they changed the part. at the cost of $425. what a rip! *tr

Bad actuator on the 2006 jeep liberty windows. this is the 4th time i need to get the window fixed. it has never been corrected. there is a new actuator suppose to be better but have to replace the window also. bad thing about it the window can fall down and it would be unsecured. *tr

Jeep 2006 liberty bought new 12/26/06. as of today my jeep will be brought back to the dealerships service dept. to have the back passenger side window looked at. i have had issues with the jeep regarding the windows since 2007. the dealership has replaced the regulators and the windows had to be replaced. the last time the regulator and window was replaced was august 2008 and not even a year later the same issue occurs. the is something that chrysler needs to address and have resolved for other owners who are having the same problems. *tr
