I think I have a gremlin hidding in my engine compartment who likes to see me cringe !!
After having to replace my crank sensor twice and my cam sensor, my Jeep still had issues. Turns out even if your vehicle is off, that the coils are still hot and because of that, I had to replace 4 or the 6 coils. Almost $1,000 later it seems ok.. Gone about 50 miles.. So far. I called Chrysler to complain and to check if there are any recalls and I was told to go to the highway traffic administration website to check for any recalls or to make a complaint. I was told that the only way Chrysler will go about reimbursement or to fix issues such as these is if people go to that site and make official complaints. It only took me ten minutes to send it in. I could not believe how many people with Jeep Liberty’s had the same exact issues as we did. Thought I would send this link.. Maybe if we complain we can get some place.. Lesson in all of this, if your crank sensor or cam sensor needs to be replaced, disconnect the battery or your going to have to replace melted coils.
Good Luck.
Anyone know how long the o2 sensors are suppose to last? Or anyway around with a quick fix just to get me past smog?
\All info is appreciated.

We have a 2002 Jeep Liberty Limited Edition 4WD (3.7L V6). It has about 125k on it. Recently, the Check Engine, ABS, Brake, and Part Time light have all come on. Brought it to our mechanic and he replaced some sensors with no success. Also, the Speedometer no longer works, just stays on 0mph all the time.
About 5 minutes into the drive, the power locks will re-lock, and the speedometer will shoot up to 70 then back down, then shoot to 30, and back down, then stops working. I feel as if it has to be some sort of electrical issue, but our mechanic "doesn't have the proper tools" for such a task. Any ideas on what could be the issue? Any help is appreciated.
I aquired my Liberty 3 year ago from someone who bought it but couldn't afford it, I wasn't looking for a Liberty but I like it a lot. The reason I was reading about the fuel was because at a idle I noticed a very slight tapping noise and I found out that it is normal so long as when you excellerate it goes away. I seem to be the only one that can hear it maybe it's just because it's my vehicle. It's a second car for me and I don't drive it much, it spends most of it's life in the garage. It has 6,700 mles on it. well I hope this info helped you a bit and I do realize I could be wrong but I'm only letting you know what I read. It was on page 273 if you're interested. Brian, San Diego
I bought my Liberty 2011 in mid April of this year. Same problem from day one. I happened to have a steep driveway into my garage. I really have to stop and then back into my garage really slow. So at that point Jeep starts to shudder and jerk as I am backing up.
Also, same problem with the speeds around 55 miles per hour. Has a feel as though it is "hanging up" or I call it" feels it dives in the hole" before accelerating. I thought that it was a break in time just like most of you, but then took it in the dealership. After having it in there for a week, they swapped a torque converter, which I mentioned to begin with.
Well, it didn't go away. I am going to call them tomorrow and see what can be done. I will try to drive another vehicle and see if it does same thing.
We'll see what happens. Was so excited to own a Jeep and there you have it.
Dang it! Let me know Ya'll if anyone discovers what the problem might be.
Many thanks.

I have an 05 Jeep :confuse: Liberty CRD. Approximetly six months ago I notice an issue with the drive train only when the engine/transmission is cold. We live a 1/2 mile from the first stop sign. As we approach the stop sign it "feels" like the transmission is in one of the higher gears - as a result there is a vibration comming from the drive train and the engine stalls. I suspect if the transmission down shifted as it is designed to do, the engine would not stall. I've call a dealer and he states there is no recall on the transmission. After that initial stalling at the first stop sign, there are no more issues as I approach any other stop sign. The transmission down shifts to the lower gears and the engine continues to run.
I don't know the fix.
Thanks,

Thanks for sharing. What is RPM? Evidently you too are having drivetrain issues.
Please describe the symptoms. Is it similar to what I described?
Thanks,
