Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that when the accelerator pedal was depressed, the vehicle veered to the right independently. when the accelerator pedal was released, the vehicle veered independently to the left. the contact was able to correct the vehicle using the steering wheel. the vehicle was taken to a dealer. the technician diagnosed that the lower control arm failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 155,000.

As i was pulling into a parking lot i suddenly heard a loud noise and noticed my back wheels acting strange. i thought it was a flat tire so i parked and checked my rear tires. everything looked fine so i got what i had come for then got back on the road. the noise and difficulty steering were still there though so i pulled over again and looked under the rear tires. the rear control arm on the drivers side has completely rusted through and broken. i couldn't believe a car with less than 70,000 miles on it could have a part completely rust through like that so i checked all the recalls on the liberty model. not surprisingly there was a recall due to excessive rust on the very part that had completely rusted out on my vehicle. i was never notified of this safety recall though because i don't live in one of the states where the recall was issued. the states where the recall was issued get snow in the winter and salt is usually used to clear the streets. that is why these states were in the recall. i live in nebraska though, a state that gets nearly as much snow as iowa, missouri, and minnesota (three states that were included in the recall) and yet if you live in my state you are not informed of the recall and you do not get the parts replaced. if i had not been pulling into a parking lot at the moment the rear control arm had rusted through and broken the incident could have been much worse. i could have been on the highway or a busy street and easily lost control of my vehicle. since my state was not included in the recall my safety (and the safety of other drivers) was put at risk and i will now be out $600. *tr

This is a safety complaint on a 2005 jeep liberty complaint for the 3 recalls. ball joints, trailer hitch and control arms. on this day i brought my vehicle to transitowne in williamsville, ny for the recalls, i never received the ball joint recall previously. my vehicle was safe, no noise, no problems and was currently in mint condition mechanically and otherwise. i dropped it off thursday night 5/7/2015 to be worked on 7/8/2015. they called the morning of 7/8/2015 to say the vehicle was complete. as i drove home the wheel shakes and front end makes noise while braking and sounds loose. i immediately returned it, they were rude and after my obvious frustration finally decided to take a test drive. when sal, the service coordinator came back and actually admitted (with a witness) i was one in a million that received bad ball joints but that they don't have any more i would have to wait. i explained when braking something is rubbing, steering is shaky and makes a clunk noise from ball joints. they let me drive away with a vehicle that is unsafe. loose ball joints with any play in them can result in an accident. they offered no rental, no help and ignore me. i have my own business (sole) and cannot drive it, i don't trust it and it cannot be driven to kayaking. my entire weekend was ruined not to mention i cannot drive a noisy, dangerous vehicle. they did not replace the trailer hitch even though it's 10 years old (i put it on myself) did not come with the jeep, and it's welds are rusty and brittle, they did not care about that either. chrysler case # 26946712. i feel like nobody cares about my problem, it can't be legal for a dealership to send drivers home with vehicles that have loose ball joints and tell them it's safe, they have no idea where i go and drive with my vehicle, it's construction season and one pothole on the thruway could kill me.

Read stabilizer bar rusted in two while driving. rear end shifted to one side making driving impossible. if this happened at a faster speed it might have created a wreck. there are recalls for this problem but my jeep based on the vin number, is not apart of the recall. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while the vehicle was parked, the contact discovered that the rear control arm was rusted and fractured. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the rear control arm needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the contact stated that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 12v085000 (suspension). the approximate failure mileage was 98,000.

After making a left turn, i heard a pop, as i gained speed the vehicle wandered to the right side of the road and difficult to control. i was just a few blocks from my home was able to make it back home very slowly. once i parked my jeep in the garage i was able to look it over carefully and found the driver side rear lower control arm rusted thru. the passenger side rear control arm was also very rusty and appeared to be ready to break. i was able to trailer the jeep to overland park kansas jeep dealer to replace both rear lower control arms. i live in kansas and work in kansas city, missouri. the dealer informed me the recall on this part did not apply to kansas. i do have a photo of the rust and broken rear control arm. *tr

There is uncomfortable noise when drive through and turn. after inspection, they told me that both upper and lower ball joints in front on both sides were damaged.

Right rear lower control arm broke while i was driving, causing me to lose control of the vehicle because the rear passenger wheel went under the fender causing me to almost hit an oncoming vehicle head-on. upon investigation, i realized that the rear lower control arms on this vehicle had been recalled in april 2012 in the "salt belt" states due to rust. although i live in kentucky, which i am told is not the salt belt, it is still obvious that these defective parts were used on my vehicle which was purchased new in 2005 and had no previous owners. a mechanic has also verified that the right lower control arm broke due to rust and that the left lower control arm is rusted. and although i have been a repeat customer having also purchased a 2009 dodge journey new and a 2012 dodge ram new, the company has refused to replace these obviously documented defective parts. i have recently contemplated purchasing a new jeep laredo; however, i am done with jeep, dodge and chrysler products and intend to go with ford, gm and/or chevrolet in the future. *tr

Driver had just pulled out of driveway and was going down the street. after about 150 feet from driveway, vehicle suddenly pulled to the left, hit a parked van, rode up on the van's front tire and rolled over. inspection of the underside of the vehicle revealed the the drivers side lower control arm had snapped causing loss of control.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact received a notification of nhtsa campaign id numbers: 12v085000 (suspension) and 13v252000 (fuel system, gasoline, structure). the contact stated that the parts were not available for several months. the dealer did not give a specific date for when the parts would become available. the manufacturer was notified of the delay. the contact did not experience a failure.

Failure on driver rear trail arm. trail arm fractured when i took off from a stop. this appears to be the same issue jeep issued a recall on (#l27), in march 05, 2012, for jeep liberty my 2004 - 2007. contacted jeep recall hotline and they refused to honor the recall since my jeep was bought in kentucky. recall is only valid for jeeps sold in states north of kentucky. according to recall fracture is linked to the excessive corrosion due to the application of road salts during winter weather conditions. northern kentucky (where i live) has the same weather as southern indiana. indiana is covered and kentucky is not. *tr

The driver side rear lower control arm broke from being corroded.this should be part of the 12v-085 recall but is not because i live in the wrong state. *tr

On saturday september 27th while driving my vehicle i noticed a rumble noise while climbing a modest hill. an inspection of the vehicle revealed that the rear axle had moved forward several inches and the driver rear wheel had moved into a position where it was contacting the inner fender which caused the noise. further investigating the cause lead me to notice that the lower control arm had failed due to corrosion which allowed axle to move forward. i have contacted chrysler by registered letter regarding this issue but i have received no response. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. while driving 55 mph, the vehicle shook and the check engine and maintenance indicators illuminated. the failure occurred four times. an independent mechanic stated that the lower control arms and lower ball joint needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 136,000.

I had turned into the parking lot and the lower ball joint on the passenger side had broke. i had this taken care of by a non jeep dealer due to short on funds to have it done by a jeep dealer, at the time this happened did not know jeep would have covered the cost of the repairs since this issue was a recall issue that had been fix back in 2007. this jeep i had purchased used in dec 2013. i had called jeep corp to check on recalls after i had first purchased. found things were fixed but was not told there was a 10 year warranty on that work that was done back in 2007 by the previous owner. if i would have know that at the time i had this issue again on july 26 2014 i would have taken it to the jeep dealer, but because i did not have a lot of money i had it fixed by another auto repair service. i would like to be reimbursed for the cost at 534.40 i had to pay in july 2014 for issues with the same that were recalled and fixed back in 2007. i had called today to find out what i could do and was told nothing now since i had it fixed by a non jeep dealer. i really think it should be reimbursed do to the fact i had to have this fixed after it was recall and fixed by a jeep dealer and it still broke. i have the receipt for the repairs that were done july 2014. *tr

An ongoing problem with the fuel gauge is that whenever i fill up i can drive about 20 miles (more or less) and then all of a sudden the engine light and gas light come on and the fuel gauge goes all the way to empty. which can be pretty scary the first time you see it happen and you're going 75 mph on the interstate. the second problem is the suspension. any time i turn the steering wheel it creaks. riding over even barely bumpy roads causes my car to creak and groan. it shakes horribly when driving between 50-55 or even idling but gets better when i take my foot off the gas, apply the brakes, or go at higher speeds. *tr

When driving faster than 15 mph, when i would take my foot off the accelerator or brake, the car would swerve violently and randomly to the right or the left even though i was not turning the steering wheel. this is the exact same issue in nhtsa campaign number: 12v085000, but my vehicle was not included in this recall. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the previous owner had the vehicle serviced under nhtsa campaign number: 06v288000 (suspension); however, years later, the ball joints failed on the vehicle. while driving, the contact heard an abnormal noise and the front driver side wheel detached from the vehicle. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the ball joint needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired; however, a year later, the failure recurred. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who confirmed the diagnosis. the vehicle was repaired again. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage and vin were unknown.

I was at a full stop at a red light, and when the light turned green, made a right hand turn. during the turn i heard a loud thud from the rear passenger's side wheel area, and the back end of the car shimmied a little bit. i pulled into a shopping center about a 1/8 mile away, parked my vehicle, and got out to inspect the area i heard the noise come from. my lower control arm had almost completely snapped. i decided to inspect the driver's side rear lower control arm, which was cracking as well. i decided to look up any recalls on my make, model and year, as i take very good care of my vehicle and found this odd. turns out there is a recall for the lower control arms, the "l27" recall. i was not made aware of this by chrysler. i contacted their customer service, and was told that it would be towed to the nearest dealership for inspection; also, if i requested that my vehicle be taken to a different dealership, there would be an additional fee. it was brought to the dealership, and it was confirmed to be the recall. i asked if there were any other recalls, and i was told by the sales rep that there is another recall, this one concerning the fuel tank, which chrysler would install a free trailer hitch for to protect it from rear end collisions. the rep then informs me "but we don't have those parts, no one really has them, so we aren't doing anything about that right now". hits me for a $4,400 quote for other things they found wrong. i had my car there for a week, and i had to pay for my rental car. i was told by chrysler that it is up to the dealership to offer help with that, which this one doesn't. i told them that i should not have to pay $350 extra to cover a rental because of a recall that is their brand's fault and responsibility to repair. i am lucky i wasn't on a highway. both chrysler and dealership refuse to pay for rental car. *tr

I was driving home after picking up my kids from school and noticed that my back end was swaying slightly. i thought it might be from a wet road surface but then noticed a crack and groan when i drove up my curb on to my driveway. i got out and looked under the vehicle and noticed that my passenger side lower control arm was completely rusted through and my rear axle was slightly skewed with the passenger tire slid forward in the wheel well. i noticed that chrysler had a recall for this very problem (safety recall l27/nhtsa 12v-085 rear suspension lower control arms) but mine was not covered because i don't live in a 'salt belt' state. i live in omaha, ne and our roads are salted every winter. i believe this is directly associated with the previous recall and would like chrysler to replace my lower control arms. *tr

Hi there, i am taking my jeep liberty for a recall on the rear suspension lower control arms to my local chrysler dealer tomorrow june 27, 2013. apparently the recall was made because the control arms are made out of a material that can corrode and break without warning causing a crash. i find this interesting because on june 26, 2012 almost a year ago to the day, i had the jeep in for a replacement of the transfer case and the mechanic replaced my front control arm noting that he had never seen such a thing, it was rotted almost completely through and those almost always outlast any vehicle they are on. i paid $549.00 to have that replaced and i would think it was the same cheap metal as the rear control arms...why wouldn't it be? anyways, i would like to be reimbursed for the repair of their cheap parts. i am also very concerned about the pending recall on the gas tank placement of my liberty which can cause a fire or explosion. i am not a mechanic and trust auto companies to keep my safety and that of my family to be paramount. if i had of known that there was a potential danger to our lives that could have been avoided i would never, ever have purchased this vehicle. i might also mention that besides the front driveshaft, the rear control arms, the transfer case replacement, i have also had the rear end redone twice now. i have the original bills for all of this work. if chrysler had any decency at all they would recall these vehicles without question. i am in ontario, canada and your sheet does not allow me to choose this option so state and zip will be incorrect. *tr
