2008 Jeep Liberty

Airbag light has been coming on and stays on. When I start my vehicle the airbag in the dash on passenger side sounds like it’s trying to escape. Scary. I have a service appointment for April 2, 2026, Thursday. They can’t get me in sooner. I understand the recall doesn’t apply. I’m stating that it SHOULD! Please expand your recall to more Jeep models. I want this on record as I am deeply concerned about my safety.

Suspension rotting out for jeeps were recalled up until 2007. My 2008 jeep has the same issue with rotted suspension bars. Originally recalls were for 2005 they added up to 2007. Mine is a 2008. We need to add another year suspension bar is rusted in half. 158 thousand miles. the rest of underbody is solid. .

I am having problems when I back up and turn the steering wheel it starts to make noise and it slows down line it don't want to turn. And my EPS light will not turn off no matter what I do to it. There is something seriously wrong when I'm backing up n turning the wheels if you could please help me an if it has nothing to do with the recall but I'm sure it dies let me know what it is.

Both lower rear control arms rusted out, broke off entirely while driving. Under 100k miles. This issue was recalled on the same make and model up until 2007 but they clearly haven't fixed the issue.

Steering wheel air bag went off on its own. Started the car and pop. Door locks won’t work on drivers door when unlocking with key fob

The contact's husband owned a 2008 Jeep Liberty. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the air bag and traction control warning lights would flash on the instrument panel. The contact stated that while driving at 40 MPH, the vehicle hydroplaned while crossing a puddle of water and landed in a ditch. The side curtain air bags deployed; however, the driver and passenger air bags did not deploy. The contact stated that an abnormal odor was emitted from the vehicle. The contact sustained bruising on the left arm but did not seek medical attention. A police report was not filed. Due to the failure, the vehicle was initially towed to the contact's home and was later towed to an independent tow yard. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to file a complaint. The vehicle was destroyed. The failure mileage was unknown.

Rear control arms rusted on both sides. One side cracked almost completely through. Mechanic confirmed close to failure which would cause loss of control of vehicle. In 2017 this model was recalled for this danger but only through model year 2007. Appears same defective part was used in this model year (2008). No warning lights of problem. Observed myself and mechanic confirmed problem.

Recently driving down the road heard a very loud noice thought i had a tire blowout. It was both Rear lower control arms broken Completely into( very rusty ).It also broke my exhaust and banged up the driveshaft. This is very expensive to repair and could have very well been Deadly. Would like for someone to contact me asap ty

The air bag light has been turning on for no reason I don’t know what’s causing it

While driving the vehicle the car started having various electrical problems. The wipers kept going on and off and all instrument lights kept going on and off.

I was driving from NY City to Boston, MA when suddenly I hear a big noise thankful to God I didn't lose control on my vehicle, I parked and notice the driver's side tire was completely deflated. I wait for several hours for help. Also one of the rear tires has big bulge on it. I check for any recalls on these tires, but there is none for this size. What can I do? The tires have only 2000-3000 miles on the car. I call Cooper customer service recalls and they were rude and did't help at all. This is a safety issue and I would like my tires to be replaced ASAP. Thank yo

We had a fire in the engine compartment. Fire started at the engine manifold ! We took pictures of the damage! This could have killed my son in law ! We gifted the vehicle to him so it could be used as a station vehicle. A dangerous situation Exist ! There is no recall or acknowledgment of this problem being identified!

Gas burps out every time you fill the tank!

ONCE PARKED THE HEAT SHEILD CAME UP AGAINST THE HEATER CORE AND MUST HAVE SPARKED CAUSING IT TO CATCH FIRE UNDER THE HOOD! NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE CAUSING A POSSIBLE FATAL ISSUE

WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK TO FULL CAPACITY AND FUEL FLOW IS SHUT OFF, FUEL COMES BACK UP OUT OF FILL PORT SPILLING AT LEAST 2 CUPS OF GAS OVER FILLER AND GROUND. HAPPENS EVERY TIME TANK IS FILLED FULL. THIS OCCURS WHILE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY ENGINE OFF WHILE AT ANY GAS STATION. IT IS AN APPARENT FAILURE ON A VALVE IN THE GAS TANK REQUIRING ENTIRE TANK TO BE REPLACED AT THE OWNERS EXPENSE. IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO MANUFACTURER.

ON 17 FEBRUARY, WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, I PLACED MY CAR INTO REVERSE TO BACK INTO AN AVAILABLE PARKING SPOT AND THE ENGINE REVVED UP ON ITS OWN AND SHOT THE CAR BACKWARD AT TOP SPEED HITTING AND TOPPLING A SAN DIEGO LIGHT POST AND STOPPING WHEN IT HIT A TREE. NO ONE WAS INJURED THANK GOODNESS. I FOUND ON LINE THAT THIS HAD HAPPENED AT LEAST 31 TIMES WITH A SIMILAR JEEP LIBERTY.
