Problems with 2006 Jeep Liberty VISIBILITY

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. the window regulator and glass were redesigned by the corporation, which was a result of the windows malfunctioning. the contact stated that all of the windows in the vehicle would randomly fall down into the door and fail to come back up. he was forced to tape the windows in the up position in his vehicle. through research, the contact discovered that this was a common failure. he spoke with a service technician at the dealer who admitted that many other consumers experience the same defect as well. they also stated that the window regulator needs to be replaced. the failure mileage was 81,000 and current mileage was 84,000.

Right rear window regulator/motor went out again. the dealership actually said this is incredibly common and they service it regularly. normal cost would be $220.00 however, my vehicle was made before 01/19/2006 so it's $380.00. the window won't go up and suddenly came down. *tr

Power window regulator failed this is second time a window regulator has failed one back and one front window. this is not only a hazard but could cause more damage if raining. there is also a child hazard if the window came down at the wrong time. bad part still under warranty they will fix but need new type part. *tr

The driver's rear window regulator broke and now the window will not go up and down and slides down by itself. chrysler only sells the motor and regulator and everything as one package, so even though i can hear the motor working and it is most likely a broken piece of plastic, because that is what jeeps use for regulators, that is causing the problem im going to have to pay 300 dollars to buy everything. if chrysler would use a metal bracket as a regulator instead of a cheap piece of plastic there would not be so many problems with jeep liberty's window regulators breaking. and since they don't sell regulators by themselves it is almost like chrysler is doing it just to make more money and that they don't care about their customers at all. it is a little bit ridiculous that they have not recalled these shotty quality regulators or even addressed the problem at all. *tr

My automatic windows keep breaking - this is the 3rd time in. *tr

Passenger side front window fell down. upon investagatoin found regulator wire came out. *tr

1. accidentally pushed rear window down switch rather than front drivers side switch 2. grinding noise and window is now disengaged from drive dropping window 3. will not repair. thousands of hits on google for people that have had this problem with cheap plastic window to actuator connection. startled when window dropped in rear unexpectedly. *tr

Window regulator failed causing window glass to fall open. our family pet exited the window while the vehicle was moving. these window regulators fail easily and without notice. windows will suddenly just drop, or open. this can allow a pet or child to exit the vehicle while moving. also a security hazard as the window regulator can be broken easily by placing both hands on the window and pushing down causing the plastic parts in the regulator to fail. the regulator has to be replaced - if done by a dealership can cost $450 per window. the are many documented cases of multiple window regulators failing on all year models. *tr

The window don't work and we have to tape them shut because we can't afford to fix them will this be a recall. *tr

2006 jeep liberty window fell down without having any reason. i have read on this website that an investigation does not need a specific number of complaints to start. i am just wondering why a part that cost from 350-600 to replace and has a number of complaints does not have an investigation. this to me seems like a one way for the chrysler dealer decided to start to make money. this vehicle has had all four window regulators replaced in the last year and a half and now the driver side is down again. when will the manufacture or safercar going to step to the plate and do what they say they will do? *tr

Driver's side window went off track and i took it to the dealer and they fixed it. now the driver's side rear window falls down for no apparent reason. it happens several times daily i can not keep it up. the driver's side window keeps going off track. the passenger side window squeaks real bad. *tr

Jeep windows: jeep changed the motor/regulator style and now you have to purchase a new window to get your electric windows to work. this is a known issue and they will not recall the motors or regulators. you can call any jeep dealer and they will admit that there is an issue with this and want the consumer to pay 1/2 the cost for something that they know is wrong. *tr

Window assembly in 2006 jeep liberty keeps failing i have had three fixed. *tr

Two weeks after purchasing a 2006 jeep liberty, the rear left window dropped and could not be rolled up or down. it was repaired under warranty. the next time it was the right rear window and it cost $429.26. three weeks later the rear left window dropped again. this time we contacted jeep/chrysler and were told that although the warranty for this problem had been extended for the 2006 jeep liberty that mine was not included because it was built in october/2005. the agent said nothing could be done and there was no one else to talk to - it was a final decision. i called back and was told that the previous customer service agent didn't follow procedure and was "stunned" at the way i was treated and i was then assigned a case number and a case manager. there have now been 14 phone calls and nothing has been resolved. this is a safety issue. small children ride in the back seat that could get out of safety restraints and be in danger. the vehicle cannot be locked up and secured and it's scary to have to get inside an unsecured vehicle at night. the interior is being destroyed by constantly being rained and snowed upon in a region of the country that has more cold and wet weather than anything else. jeep refuses to acknowledge that there are hundreds of complaints on the internet about this problem, no standard policy being followed by jeep to get this manufacturer's defect fixed, and no recall for a problem that happens over and over again on the same vehicle. if jeep will not fix this problem with their product, then consumers should unite a file a class action lawsuit because the way jeep is handling this is just plain wrong. *tr

While i was away from my jeep, the right rear window rolled down and broke -- again. that was the 6th time this occurred in this vehicle to these windows. not more than 10 minute later, the left rear window broke, exactly as they all have done. so, this is the 7th time each of 4 window mechanisms in this jeep have failed. *tr

The window regulators in my 2006 jeep liberty have broken and fallen down 10 different times in the past 4 years that i have owned the vehicle. the first 9 times were bothersome and about 450.00 each to get fixed but this last one is a safety hazard. i have a 10 week old baby and the window decided to fall down in the middle of a storm and i had to pull over on the interstate to pull the window back up to stop the flood of rain that was falling on my (at the time) 8 week old baby. my baby was screaming his head off as i am sure that much rain coming in the wide opened window at 50-60 (was driving slower due to low visibility in storm) miles an hour did not feel good. i had to find the right time to pull off the road then climb in back, undo car seat, slide it over and duct tape the window. i was alone and then had to reattach the car seat to the base and dry off my infant. i am thankful that no one hit us while i was parked on the interstate in a rainstorm with my child not buckled in to the car. i was in a panic trying to fix this. now jeep is refusing to fix this free of charge due to lack of recall. please make them recall this defective part so this does not happen again. i live in mobile, al and it is scorching hot and i can't be driving him around with the window down. also, it doesn't stay up for more than a day with the duct tape because of the heat melting the glue on the tape. it's just dangerous. *tr

Both rear windows on my 2006 jeep liberty fell down into the doors. the rear windows had only been lowered and raised four times. the first one fell at 19,000 miles; the second fell at 22,000 miles on vehicle. *tr

Bad window regulators, always breaking. all my window regulators have been replaced, and now i'm working on the 2nd round, and some windows have been replaced twice already in 2 years. *tr the problem is it leaves the car vunerable for left or even damage (depending on the weather) plus it's not safe, if you have small children in the back and the window starts to fall down while you're driving. *tr

1. no unusual events, window (rear driver's side) seldom cycled in use. 2. 1 occurrence, window gaped slowly from about an inch to three inches when car was stationary. and would fall completely down when driving. consequences? interior of the car was exposed to weather. 3. regulator failure diagnosed. part replaced under warranty.*tr

I have had to have the window regulators replaced on all 4 windows, with the left rear replaced twice. the first instance was at 28,000 miles, and the second episode occurred at 33,000 miles. a final incidence occurred at 42,000 miles. i was told that jeep is aware of the problem and that it happens in hot areas (like the desert). i was told to leave my windows cracked open so as to prevent the build-up of heat. these events happen as i drive, and in one case, it happened that the window came down while my wife was at work, and she found it after a full day. this created a big security issue as the car could have been vandalized or stolen. *tr

Front passenger window regulator failed. second time it has been replaced. *tr

I have had multiple window regulators break in my vehicle. i have replaced 3 of them at least twice. i have replaced on once, which is the only one i did not have replaced by chrysler. it is the only one that has not broken again. i have contacted chrysler and they refuse to help out in any way to pay for these. it needs to be a recalled part, and they need to make a part that will actually not break. my small child has to ride in the back seat with a window down, my vehicle is open for anyone to just get into my vehicle at any time, and any time it rains, snows, anything else i get all type of weather in the vehicle. i have received terrible customer service from chrysler . *tr

2006 jeep liberty with electronic window failure. consumer states that the rear electronic windows have failed and the right one has failed twice. mechanic states that it is a regulator/cable problem. *kb

Driver's side door windows (front and back seat) fall down and fail to stay up without tape. they have been taped up for over a year b/c we refuse to pay to have them fixed. have researched online and found countless complaints about this. dealership claims we would have to pay to get it fixed although it is obviously a defect. the main component of the regulator is plastic and runs on a metal track, causing the plastic to wear down and no longer be able to grip on the rail and support the window. newer model jeeps do not have this part, so obviously they were aware of the problem and upgraded the part to eliminate this problem. *tr

The contact owns a 2006 jeep liberty. the contact noticed that all four power windows were inoperable and were unable to roll down in case of an emergency. the contact had the switched replaced in june 2010; however, the failure continued to occur. also the rear window regulator failed, causing it to fall into the door panel. the dealer advised the contact to have the switch replaced again. the manufacturer did not offer any assistance. the current mileages were 97,000 and the failure mileages were 60,000.

The windows on my jeep liberty fall from the track for no reason. they fall when i don't even use them. they have been fixed at least 5 times since i have owned the jeep. the new part that they install is apparently defective because they only last for a year and then they break again. this should be listed as a recall since i have seen thousands of owners of this jeep complain about the same problem, some having fixed the windows 12 or more times. this is a safety issue as well because the windows suddenly falling down for no reason can cause loss of control and also a safety issue that someone can reach in your car and harm you or create a carjacking issue. this problem needs to be addressed immediately. *tr

Dealership stated there was nothing wrong with my front abs brakes. still after 14,746 miles give or take a few my brakes still have periodic pulsation. i should of wrote this complaint 14,746 miles ago my vehicle now has 49,175 i bought it 34,429 thank god for extended warranties because otherwise i would have no windows because after buying a $16,000 vehicle i could not afford to replace all the window regulators that broke oh and i had to have a fuel pump module replaced it did not fix the problem my main concern on this heap im mean jeep are the breaks front and rear and that chrysler jeep will not be held accountable for these problems until a person has died. there are many other problems cosmetic problems like the interior and heater vents. but not life threatening. i also have many concerns with the electrical system but again the dealer crown motors of redding california states that they cant manifest it they cant fix it every time i get my jeep back from them it runs worse that it did prior. *tr
