I have a 2006 Liberty Sport but have not noticed any stains yet. My problem is static shock every time I get out of the vehicle. I use my shirt sleeve to grab the door handle.
I noticed the 2007's have a tag on the seats advertising static and stain resistant. Maybe Jeep took note of your comments and are trying to improve.
My big problem with my Liberty is she is a piggy, 12 mpg city and 14 mpg highway. I have never own another car I did not get in the EPA rating for gas mileage. My 94 Jetta got even better than the EPA rating.
I am naming her Miss Piggy.
Even so, this Jeep is a lot better than any GM vehicle. They just took care of ball joint recall.
With My GM truck you needed a Lawyer to get any warranty or recall work done.

same here, my seats are stained simply from rain water, the one day I actually left my windows open a crack because it was so hot, and it poured, they are still stained, what a senseless goof by somebody

i have the same problem with mine, i have contacted the better business bureau, the attorney generals office in missouri. i am tired of being told the same things. i should not have to clean my seats. my car is 4 months old. so, my advice is, do the same things that i have done and maybe just maybe jeep will get the message. i cannot fight this battle by myself, so if you all will please file complaints maybe something will be done. this should be covered under warranty. i have been told by a few of the service managers that this is a reocurring problem. jeep chrysler doesn't seem to think that this is a manufacturer defect. well i beg to differ with them!!! water should not stain. my seats look as though they are 10 years old. i don't know about all of you, but i feel that i paid too much money for some flunky to tell me how i need to clean my seats. they knew this problem existed and they should have at the very least scotch guarded the seats before these vehicles were driven off the lot. so please help me stand up for what is right and maybe we can get something done. i know i will get something done because i will not stop until i am satisfied.

I also have a Liberty 05 and to date i have taken the jeep back 6 times for the seats to be shampoo, they tell me each time that they have treated the seats with a scotch guard type of spray, as I write this the jeep is in the shop again, from rain stains, I as well have contacted Jeep and they do not see where this is a defect, the dealer will not replace the covers with the new fabric that is suppose to be water and snow resistant, when I took the jeep in this am I suggested again replaceing the covers and they tell me how expensive it is, it is hard to beleive that you can spend over 20k and they do not care .

#16 of 88 New 07 seat covers by hmallanda

I just got back from my dealer, I have been there 9 times to have the seats cleaned, this time they could not get the stains out, they actually look worse than before, they had put the master shield on the seats, the warranty on master shied states that if the stain will not come out they must replace the covers, so I am waiting for the 07 yes essinsial fabric covers to come in , finally an end to this problem, so for all of you who are still having problems just keep bugging the dealer, he has to cave in sooner or later
