2010 Jeep Liberty Recalls, Issues & Maintenance

“THE SKY SLIDER ROOF IS MALFUNCTIONING AND GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. IT IS NOW LEAKING AND I FEAR IT MIGHT COME OFF EVENTUALLY. CHRYSLER JEEP NO LONGER OFFERS PARTS TO REPAIR AND NO ONE CAN FIX THE ISSUE”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE BLEW OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE”

“THE SKYSLIDER FABRIC ROOF LEAKS OFTEN. THERE ARE WATER STAINS ON THE UPHOLSTERY. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO FIT CORRECTLY ANY MORE”

“WHILE BACKING DOWN A DRIVEWAY, MY BRAND NEW JEEP LIBERTY'S SERVICE BRAKE DID NOT WORK AND I WAS ONLY STOPPED AFTER HITTING A POLE”

“IT WAS LIGHT TO MEDIUM RAIN WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WHERE TRAFFIC TOOK OFF AND HAD TO STOP SOON AFTER. AS SOON AS I HIT MY BRAKES THE ABS KICKED IN INCREASING THE STOPPING DISTANCE OF MY JEEP CAUSING ME TO REAR END ANOTHER VEHICLE”

“I HAVE TO KEEP REPLACING THE REAR BRAKE PADS EVERY 9000 MILES. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND OUT WHY AND SAID MANY DO IT. I CALLED THE MFG AND THEY WERE NO HELP EITHER. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE REAR PADS EVERY 9 TO 10000 MILES”

“WHILE DRIVING THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SENSOR ACTIVATED AND THE TIRE WENT FLAT. THE STEM VALVE WAS COMPLETELY CORRODED AND FEEL INSIDE THE TIRE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY ARE NO LONGER USING THE SAME TYPE AND WE PAID FOR A UPDATED ONE”

“DRIVING WITH MY WIFE ON I-95 NORTH IN CONNECTICUT EARLY SATURDAY MORNING, OUR RIGHT REAR TIRE INSTANTLY LOST AIR PRESSURE. I SAW THE LOW AIR WARNING LIGHT GO ON FIRST, THEN IMMEDIATELY FELT THE VEHICLE WOBBLE TO THE POINT WHERE I COULD BARELY CONTROL IT”

“I WAS DRIVING 50 MPH ON A PAVED HIGHWAY. THE AIR PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON. A FEW SECONDS LATER THERE WAS A RUMBLE NOISE. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED AT THE TIRES. ONE WAS COMPLETELY FLAT”

“DURING PRODUCTION OF MOST JEEP MODELS USING THE JR ENGINES, THERE WAS AN ISSUE IN THE COOLING SYSTEM CAUSING BLOCKAGE OF THE HEATER CORE, RADIATOR, ENGINE BLOCK, THERMOSTAT, AND/OR WATER PUMP”

“IT WAS THE MIDDLE OF AUGUST 2013- SUPER HOT OUTSIDE AND MY CAR STARTED LEAKING ANTIFREEZE ALL OVER THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR. THE AC STOPPED WORKING! TURNS OUT THE HEATER CORE HAD TO BE REPLACED. COST OVER $800”

“COOLANT LEAK- TOOK TO CARMAX SERVICE IN HILLSIDE,IL FOR DIAGNOSIS INFORMED THAT THE COOLANT WAS LEAKING FROM WATER PUMP. SERVICE CONSULTANT INFORMED ME THAT HE SPOKE TO A GUY FROM JACK PHELAN DEALERSHIP IN COUNTRYSIDE, IL AND WAS INFORMED THAT BY SEARCHING MY VIN NUMBER”

“On August 26, 2026, while driving my 2010 Jeep Liberty with approximately 72,000 miles, I was making a low-speed right turn from a stop when I suddenly felt a significant jolt that initially felt like I had driven over a large object”

“OPERATING MY 2010 JEEP LIBERTY ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE REAR SUSPENSION SNAPPED NEARLY CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. ALSO VEHICLE HAS AN OVER ABUNDANCE OF RUST UNKNOWN REASON. SINGLE OWNER, PURCHASED IN 2010 THIS IS A SERIOUS DEFECT”

“OIL PAN AND TRANSMISSION PAN HAVE RUSTED OUT AND STARTED LEAKING. I FEEL THE CAR IS NOT OLD ENOUGH TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THE MANUFACTURER PARTS”

“FUEL BLOWS BACK EXPLOSIVELY WHILE FILLING TANK. DEALER REPORTS CHECK VALVE IN INSIDE THE GAS TANK NOT ON THE FILLER NECK AND THAT REPLACING FUEL TANK IN ONLY WAY TO FIX. COST ESTIMATE $1370, PLUS $146.50 TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM FOR A TOTAL OF $1,517.31”

“FOR THE PAST TWO MONTHS EVERYTIME I FILL MY FUEL TANK IT OVERFLOWS DRAMATICALLY. WHILE FILLING THE TANK I ALWAYS FOLLOW THE PRESCRIBED SAFETY MEASURES - I DO NOT PUT ANYTHING UNDER THE HANDLE THAT MECHANICALLY HOLDS THE NOZZLE OPEN”

“THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME YOU FILL IT UP WITH GAS. NO MATTER WHO FILLS IT UP OR WHAT GAS STATION I GO TO, WHEN THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF THE GAS IS SPILLING OUT OF THE TANK. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD”

“STARTED VEHICLE AND DROVE ABOUT 1/4 OF A MILE. THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND I HAD TO MANUALLY STEER IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. CAR WOULD NOT START AND POWER TO EVERYTHING WAS LOST”

“FIRST INCIDENT WAS IN NOVEMBER TO WHERE MY HEADLIGHTS QUIT WORKING. I SWITCHED OUT THE DUAL SWITCH BUT THAT DID NOT HELP AND THEN TRIED CLEANING AND SWITCHING THE RELAYS AROUND IN THE TIPM AND THAT HELPED SOMEWHAT”

“THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED MODULDE (TIPM) IS DEFECTIVE. THE CAR IS 5 YEARS OLD, BUT THIS PLACES THE USER AT A HUGE SAFETY RISK. THE LIGHTS WENT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT IN A VERY DARK HIGH WAY. LUCKILY THE HAZZARD LIGHTS WORKED”

“2010 JEEP LIBERTY WITH ONLY 1,939 MILES ON THE VEHICLE THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WHILE UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE DRIVER WAS STRUCK IN THE HEAD WITH THE AIR BAG”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2010 JEEP LIBERTY. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE LEFT ARM AND MULTIPLE BRUISES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION”

“Airbag light goes on and off. Is not throwing a code on advanced scan tool. Also at times does not recognize the key has been removed from the ignition, and that appears to be a fault with the ignition key pin in the housing which Chrysler wants $1,000 or more to replace”
