Problems with 2007 Jeep Liberty VISIBILITY

Problem: rear passenger side power window is non-operational. first, it was 3 inches open and now it has slipped into door panel. failure: rear passenger window won't go up or down. it's presently in down/open position. correction: will take to chrysler dealership for repair. "if the parts are available." so said the technician. internet search reveals this is a very common problem...some drivers reported as many as 4 repairs to 1 window. repair cost is upwards to $500. frustrating....i don't have $500 to spend on faulty equipment. because of the # of situations i read, my broken window is hardly a fluke. please do something!!! retired teacher/counselor who thought jeeps were top-notch in every way. *tr

Window regulators break causing the window to drop down with no way of raising it back up. *tr

The window regulators on all four windows keep failing and cause the cable to exit out of the locking mechanism. this in turn gives the door the appearance of being closed. the door can swing open and cause the passenger to fly out. the first time this happen my child was in the back seat with the proper restraints but just seeing the door open scared the you know what out of me. i took the vehicle to the dealer and they told me i was still covered so they changed the regulator on all four windows and said all was fine. a year later the same window did the same thing so again i went to the dealer but this time the story was different. not only was my regulator bad but my window also had to be replaced. i was given a total of about $500.00 to repair the window again and i asked why i had to pay for something that was repaired one year before. they said this was not the first time this issue had happen and unfortunately their was no recall. i said it was not right to have to pay for something that was by all standards should be a complete and total recall.why do we wait for a accident or even worse death to happen before some thing is done. the job was done and i was surprised when i was only charged $100. i would have paid any price for my family's safety. please don't wait for a tragedy to happen before a recall is in effect. i now have another regulator and window to repair and two more to keep an eye on. thank you. *tr

Left a shopping center when it was about 86 deg outside, and then proceeded to enter the highway, got up to 68mph, and all of a sudden my right rear window dropped into the door, and scared the'!@#$% out of me, as i almost swerved thinking that i was hit. my main concern is that a window is sort of a safety net from the outside world. well this is the fifth (5th) time that my window regulator has failed on all doors, and the car is a 2007 jeep liberty with 37k miles on it. on three (3) of the occasions, the doors were stuck shut, due to some cable being loose. i had to go to the dealer and have the doors taken off and repaired, and put back on. and that is when i began thinking, what if i was in an accident, and the window regulator's cable snapped locking the door. would i be able to get out of the car, most likely not. *tr

Defect in the track of all four windows. part has come off of three tracks on jeep liberty windows, causing all 3 windows to fall down. all now have to be taped up. this is a safety issue/hazard as anyone could easily break into car without breaking windows or picking locks. it also impairs vision on drivers door because of being taped to stay up. *tr

2007 jeep liberty window regulator failed causing window glass to fall into door. vehicle was being operated at normal speed on a regular highway. *tr

Jeep liberty, 2007 - rear windows fall into door panel while driving or parked. my children sit in the back seat of my vehicle when moving and my daughter had her fingers pulled into the window pocket. another time the weather was cold with hard rain and the window just dropped, i'm in traffic, i was distracted by incident and it took several minutes to pull off the highway and cover the open window area with a blanket and again there were children in the back seat. the defective regulator on the jeep liberty and other jeeps has been reported numerous times by consumers who have had to replace the equipment in the same vehicle 4 or more times. chrysler/jeep refuses to correct the problem which results in the window glass falling into the door, leaving windows open while children or animals are in the vehicle and leaves the vehicle vulnerable if locked and parked anywhere. this failure accurs in over 75 % of the jeep vehicles and once the part is replaced can fail again within a month. this is not just an expensive inconvenience it does effect the safety of individuals in the vehicle when moving and when vehicle is parked and locked. *tr

The windows are falling down into the doors by themselves due to faulty regulators. chrysler told us the design of the window regulator was changed due to safety but they do not want to make this a recall because they don't want to pay for it . *tr

My wife's 2007 jeep liberty window regulators on both rear passenger windows broke within 2 weeks of each other. when they did, there was a loud noise then the window dropped. the vehicle is out of warranty. the incidents almost caused my wife to wreck because the noise startled her to the point she thought someone had hit her. jeep needs to be forced to correct this problem. *tr

Right rear passenger window regulator broke on its own and had to be taped up for 6 weeks while a replacement part, that was on back order, finally arrived. four months later the right front window regulator broke on its own. no one was in the suv when it let the window drop open. the part for this window took only five days to reach the dealership and the very day that it was replaced the drivers side rear window regulator let the window drop and i could not get it to come back up. finally used a pair of needlenose pliers to get hold of it and then tape it up. of course, the dealership does not have this part in stock. this is simply a joke and the fact that jeep has not had a recall on these window regulators should be a crime. the vehicle is a 2007 jeep liberty limited that had a sticker price of $25,000. so much for american made quality. *tr

2007 jeep liberty. consumer writes in regards to left rear window falling down. *tgw the consumer stated the window would not roll back up. the consumer's husband managed to grab enough of the glass to pull it up. in december of 2010, the consumer received a letter which extended the warranty for the problem. however, it was only extended to seven years from the date of service, which in her case was july 2, 2007. on march 15, 2011, the right rear window was repaired after falling down. on june 13, 2013, the left rear window was repaired for a second time, and on august 21, 2014 the left front window failed again. *jb

3 of the 4 power windows on my 2007 jeep liberty have failed...once the windows fail the will not stay up. had them fixed under warranty. the front driver window is failing again. this is a faulty part and should be recalled. i am considering if the proper agencies do not address this issue to seeking out and filing a class action lawsuit against chrysler and all responsible parties for the lack of concern over a potentially serious safety issue. *tr

Power windows drops down while going down the road, and will not work properly, had the driver door replace at local dealership for around 300 hundred dollars. now it has fell again. thats all four windows will not work. what will i need to do. dealership says that there is not a recall on this. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty 4x4. the contact stated the driver side window regulator was replaced twice. the mechanic that performed the repairs advised that the regulators did not fit the windows correctly. the contact also had the rear passenger side window regulator replaced and most recently, the front passenger side window regulator failed. the first two regulators were replaced under warranty yet since the warranty had expired. the contact was constantly replacing the regulators at her expense. the vin was not available. the failure and failure mileages were approximately 34,200.

My window regulators in my 07 jeep liberty have had to be replaced 2 times in a 3 months period and my jeep is only 3 years old. i was driving in town and it was raining. i had just left a drivethru window of a fast food place and had 2 friends in the back seat. after we left the drive through and was driving down the road my rear window just fell after it was rolled and my friend got her food, and he window was unable to be rolled up. my friend was getting wet and i was so distracted by the whole thing i almost wrecked. i have read numerous complaints from other having the exact same problems. the dealer fixes it and it continues to need yet another repair because they are not able to effectively fix the problem. the problem is in the design of the window regulator and it will only be a temporary fix and will break yet again and need another repair until a new better design is provided. the vehicle needs to be recalled and the window regulators need to be updated with a better design. a vehicle can get stolen because the window is malfuctioning and won't roll up.all sorts of other horrible things can happen too. children or infants can have too much blow air in their face and suffocate because the window is broken. i don't feel chrysler should wait around for a tragedy to happen before they recall the jeep liberty's and fix these window problems. *tr

All the windows in my 2007 jeep liberty have fallen inside the doors. the dealership locally says it happens to everyone on all windows but yet they charge $300-$500 to fix this per window. this is now 1 window every 2 months since we bought this. i have the front passenger side left that this has not happened to but it is showing symptoms like the other did. *tr

Front driver window regulator failed. both regulator and window replaced. cost $462 in june. now in august, rear driver window - same thing. *tr

On 3 separate occasions, in 2 separate jeep liberty vehicles (model years 2006 & 2007), both my boyfriend & i have had windows fall into the doors. twice it happened during the normal course of using the power window feature to lower the window, but once it happened while traveling down the road. mechanics have replaced the regulator on all 3 occasions, stating that this is a very common problem they've seen with these vehicles. my concern is that when traveling down the road and having the window suddenly drop, there's the potential for the driver to be surprised by the movement, as well as items flying into or out of the vehicle. *tr

The window regulator in my jeep goes out it is a manufacturer defect in the making of the vehic le, it has already happened to my vehicle 3 times in 5 months and gm refuses to recall it. it is a safety issue because the window just fall out of trac k and requires me to cover it w/ a garbage bag until i c an afford $500 to fix it, . it also fell in the middle of the night for me to wake up in the morning w/ my window being left down and stuff stolen from my car, could of got rained in my car also. *tr

Window regulators have a bad mounting part made a plastic that breaks. this causes the window glass to drop down into the door unexpectedly. so far i have had this happen on all of the doors and the part chrysler was sending was also defective. now they are pushing a part that requires the glass to be replaced also. this should be a recall, there are thousands of complaints on the internet. *tr

Power window failed suddenly in 2007 jeep liberty. the window cannot be closed and is a safety issue. at this time, the window has not been repaired. *tr

Electric windows don't work. one day it worked they next day it didn't. there was no event to cause this. i have 2 windows that do not work, passenger side front window and driver side rear window. after checking on line i discovered that this was a problem that is occurring with a lot of people and that chrysler jeep is aware of the problems. *tr

On two separate occasions, a window on my 2007 jeep liberty broke (the front and rear driver's side windows). as i was rolling the window up or down, it suddenly started making a loud noise and stopped working. the first time it happened, i thought it might just be off track, but i was told by a repair shop it is a faulty regulator that jeep is not doing a recall for. with the 2nd window, i knew immediately what had happened. i currently have a third window that is making odd noises when i try to use it. *tr

All four window regulators have failed on my 2007 jeep liberty. it was purchased brand new. *tr

2007 jeep liberty. to date we have replaced all 4-window regulators due to becoming inoperative or sticking. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the driver side brake light failed intermittently. the dealer made six attempts to duplicate the failure. the vehicle was taken to private mechanic who was also unable to duplicate the failure. in addition, the contact stated that the window regulators were faulty and she was unable to close the windows once they had been opened. the driver side window was replaced twice. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure but no repairs were performed. the current mileage was 98,120 and the approximate failure mileage was 45,000.

Rear passenger side window suddenly dropped off the track while driving. an infant was in a car seat on that side of the vehicle and this could have caused debris to enter vehicle. this is the fourth incident of a power window suddenly falling for this vehicle. dealer states that window regulators are poorly designed. a replacement design is not available. *tr

Component: visibility:power window devices and controls details: the window regulator in my jeep goes out it is a manufacturer defect in the making of the vehicle, it has already happened to my vehicle 3 times in 8 months and gm refuses to recall it. it is a safety issue because the window just fall out of trac k. cost is not affordable each time @ $500 to fix it. also the fix is total replacement of parts and window glass because the window glass will not fit the new parts? um then maybe it should be recalled because they know if it is fixed with the same parts it will not stay fixed!!!!!!! *tr

Drivers side and passenger side electric windows would stall and drag while being put up. jeep replaced parts and fixed the issue with no charge. my jeep is not quite 2 years old and has 32,000 miles. the drivers side window has been used more (as you can imagine) and it has been getting progressively worse for 6 months or so. i also had to have a transmission regulator put in when the car was new. it was shifting rough.... *tr

I bought my liberty when it was a year old from a dealer. one month later, the drivers side window fell into the door. it was still under warranty, the dealer fixed it with new parts. a year ago in june 2012 the rear window dropped into the door. the rear windows are never even used. i had to pay a mechanic to raise it up and hold it up with duck tape because the regulator and repair is going to cost over $400.00!!the window would slowly start to drop before it finally went into the door completely when i was driving and the noise from the outside was so loud i thought i was having a flat tire and had to pull over. not to mention the constant attention i had to pay to make sure the window was still being held up with the awful looking duct tape! so angry and disappointed with chrysler. i read online of so many other owners having this same problem. i could never risk putting a child back there because of this risky problem.

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. the contact stated that the passenger side rear window fell down in between the door and will not come back up. this prevented the door from opening. the dealer stated that the door would not open because the glass was lodged between the door. the dealer repaired the door, but not the window. three weeks later, the remaining three windows failed as well and prevented the doors from opening. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer and they stated that the warranty on the windows were 35,000 miles and the vehicle has 35,400 miles. the dealer repaired all of the doors for free, but would not repair the windows. currently, all of the windows are down and will cost $580 to be repaired. the failure mileage was 35,400.

Window regulators fail in 2007 jeep liberty. first passenger side rear window regulator went out during warranty period. dealership replaced it. then just after warranty expired, regulator on drivers side rear window went out... seems to be a design problem. vehicle should be recalled and repaired!! *tr

Vehicle has 25000 miles and has had four power window regulators break, two of which were the same window. vehicle transmission also shifts very hard between 1700 and 2100 rpm. regulators were replaced on warranty, but i fear after warranty expires this will be very expensive. have had no luck getting transmission fixed, everytime i take it in for repairs, i'm told they can't find anything wrong. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. while driving approximately 30 mph, the front driver side window fell down into the door panel. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the window regulator was repaired. the failure occurred five additional times on different windows and replaced. the failure mileage was approximately 1,500 and the current mileage was approximately 32,000. updated 01/11/11*lj

I have had my windows fall and not go back up 5 different times since i have owned my 2007 jeep liberty,nov 2007. every time i take it in and get it fixed the dealer says they hope this time will be the last. one time when the left rear window fell the door would not open because of the pressure from the broken window motor. this is very dangerous since the window will not stay up. this is a safety issue. i also have several stains on my stain resistant seats from water, rain and bottled water which is not dirty. *tr

Left side power windows fall to full open position. this poses a safety hazard driving with window full open at highway speeds. won't return to closed with power window switch. this has occurred four times with either drivers window or passenger windows. requires replacement of power window regulator at dealer. *tr

The front driver window goes up crooked and has to be let down and up several times to make it go up correctly. the power windows on my jeep liberty made a pop when going up and the window failed to shut (back passenger); i had to manually lodge it up. a few hours later the right passenger side window did the same thing; however, it also made the door un-operable locking my child in which required him to go out the other door. if there had been a wreck my child could have been trapped inside. i took it to the dealer and they said they fixed the problem stating the regulators and motors needed replacing. i asked them what caused the door to lock and they said the cable pulley which controls the windows wrapped around the locking mechanism and froze the door. well a few months have passed and the windows are once again having the same problems. i was told it would cost several hundred dollars to fix these items though they had previously worked on them. i have relocated from ga to va and would not have the same dealer. when these windows fall while driving it startles you to the point of panic because the rear windows makes a funny sound when down (the way the air current hits the car); which can be quite distracting. i hope you will deal with this problem so it doesn't cause a serious problem with those not expecting it. another problem when driving if you hit the gas it sounds like the back end slips and will not go or will just jerk and slip on the roadway. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. all the windows in the vehicle kept falling within the door frame. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer several times to replace broken regulator cables at the contact's expense. the contact called the manufacturer who stated that there were no related recalls. the failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

Window regulators on my jeep liberty repeatedly failing. i've had to have the regulators repaired five times on a 2007 vehicle. windows fall down while driving in the vehicle and won't roll back up. i've contacted local dealers and they are also frustrated and said jeep won't recall the vehicles and create a permanent fix. i also contacted chrysler corporation and they were not helpful to me -- they shifted focus to the dealer. also, like the other post, my car had water on the seat and it created a permanent brown stain. it was bottled water. the seats are supposed to be stain resistant and they are not. chrysler is not standing behind their products, the seats and the window regulators are defective! *tr

All of my power windows have fallen into the door at one point or another over the past year and a half. jeep has fixed this issue each time, but they fix the issue with the same parts that are defective so it is inevitable that it will happen again. this is clearly faulty craftsmanship and needs to be recalled by the manufacturer. *tr

Left rear window has failed 3 times (9/5/08, 6/17/10, 10/16/11) and all three times the regulator had to be replaced. the right rear window has failed once (8/29/09) and the regulator had to be replaced. all 4 times, the car was parked and i found the window down and was unable to get it back up. this is a safety issue as i have young children in the back and use the window lock so they are unable to open the window. having an unreliable window that can fall down at any time is a serious safety issue for anyone with passengers in the back. i have complained to chrysler and they have extended the warranty for the window lift plate but not the regulator. there is a need for a permanent fix for this. i am tired of my regular trips to the dealer to get this fixed. consumers should not have to pay out of pocket to get this fixed. *tr

Windows keep falling, had to drive home and use alternate vehicle because the car was exposed with the window down. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep liberty. while driving approximately 25 mph, the contact heard a loud banging sound near the rear seats in the vehicle. the contact discovered that the rear passenger side window had suddenly dropped down into the door panel. the failure previously occurred on all four side windows for which the dealer stated that the window lift plates and/or lift regulators malfunctioned. the windows were repaired each time, but the failure recurred. the vehicle was repaired for the same failure on eight separate occasions. the manufacturer was notified. the failure mileage was 17,000.

The abs traction control sensor have failed causing them to stop working. the window regulators have all failed causing them to be replaced. the windows did not fail all at the same time. each one about 2 months apart. *tr

I purchased vehicle aug 2008 with 7500 miles on it. from that time to current date, fuel spills out when filling the gas tank full. shortly after purchase, the first of 3 occurrences of the rear windows falling happened. the dealership repaired the first one, the second one i had to pay $100 deductible to have my extended warranty cover the cost to the same dealership. now the first one is broke again, costing me another $100 deductible. in addition, in the past week i have spent over $600 to replace the ignition switch (vehicle would only start using my remote start) and problems with the check engine light on. i had the spark plugs and coils changed, injectors cleaned, compression checked, intake and carbon cleaner run through engine, and complete oil change. this doesn't include the $600 i spent today for new tires also spent $140 for a new battery last year. the window seal strips on both front windows continue to fall off.. it's not over yet - vehicle is in the shop now for the engine light. who knows how much it will cost me. chrysler needs to be accountable for their negligence in putting vehicles like this on the market. i hope a serious injury or fatality doesn't have to happen to get their attention. i haven't even addressed the safety recall notice i recently received. vehicle currently has 58,000 miles on it. *tt

In the past 4-5 months i have had 2 windows (passenger rear and front) fall down. also the driver rear just quit working but did not fall. the latest was the passenger front that fell at night while on vacation which resulted in it raining in the vehicle. each time it has been the window regulator that was replaced. *tr

After minimal use of the rear windows on my 2007 jeep liberty i have had 3 failures. i bought the jeep in january 2007 and had no problems until august 2008. at that point i had the drivers rear window repaired due to the inadequate window mechanism. in july 2008 the passenger rear window went down for the same issue. i was told that the repairs were being completed with a higher quality system so that it would not be a problem in the future. in august 2008 the rear drivers side window broke again. at this point i have had to leave work 3 times to get repairs on my windows. the dealership this time told me that jeep is not providing a better solution to fixing the windows. when i called and told them the issue with the window the dealer immediately asked if it was a liberty. apparently this is a very common problem that they see several time daily. my question is why has this not been a recall issue from jeep if there is such a high volume in repairs. although missing work every few months to take my car to the dealership is not a huge inconvenience i am worried about the same repairs after the car is out of warranty. *tr

1: regular use of windows 2: plastic clip breaks holding window to track. has happened 5 times since 2007. window falls into door. 3: dealer replaces with same window regulator that will break again. *tr

Window regulator,the power window regulator broke while i was driving,and the window almost broke.no one was touching the window button. i brought my jeep liberty to the dealer to have the problem fixed. the vehicle was under warranty still but as it turns out the original regulator is no longer available and the new regulator wont fit on my existing window. so the dealer said the warranty would cover the cost of the regulator but i had to pay for the new window and labor,which cost me about 200. dollarsthe whole bill was around 454 dollars. i have heard of several people that own jeep liberty's and they have also had window regulator problems. i think this should be a dealer recall item considering now you cant even get the original regulator and in order to fix it you have to buy a window. i feel like i have been scammed. *tr

2007 jeep liberty 4x4, 3 windows have broken with the other sounding like it will go any time. when the first was fixed the child safety lock was broken and can't be disabled. i asked the service manager to check all windows after the first one broke but was told they can only do anything if it is actually broken. *tr
