Heat is not the issue as told me by my dealership. I told them about your problem when I took my jeep there again. I live in Tn. Just had another window turn loose and drop in the door just setting in my driveway.

Charliee2....did the dealership give you a reason as to why this happens? All I ever hear is that it's an inherent problem that Libertys have (good to know that it's not the heat that does this). That, for some reason, isn't acceptable to me. Seems as though if there's a pattern of problems, the maker of the vehicle would stand by their product and correct it and continue to fix it for those of us who already have purchased the vehicle and are experiencing problems. But what do I know?

My dealership says there is a big problem and It's not the heat or the cold it's a Chrysler problem. All my windows have had problems 1 replaced regulators 3 times, another 2 times, and both back doors replaced all the insides said the cable broke. and this last time my jeep was setting in my driveway just fell in the door. I've emailed Chrysler about 16 times and one time they emailed me back and said my problem had been taken care of as far as Chrysler and not to email them again. I'm emailing them every day and I would hope anyone who's having problems will do the same and maybe they'll listen to us. I'm emailing everyday and I'm not stoping. This is a problem that needs to be fixed!!!

Good for you charlee1! Could you post the email address you're using? This way anyone who reads this thread of posts concerning malfunctioning power windows can email as well. Maybe, just maybe, if enough of us hound them daily about this problem, they will honor repairs and see to it that this doesn't occur any longer. Optimally, they would do a recall on the power window mechanisms on any Libertys. Like I said earlier, my dealership said it didn't occur enough for them to do this. Well it sounds like it's happening across the country and that Jeep just doesn't hear enough complaints from consumers. Individuals probably don't think they can change policy, but with all of us doing this together, maybe WE can!

I have an '06 Liberty, bought July 06. I have had this car in five times already for the window regulator to be replaced, the most recent was two of them at once a month ago. The drivers window is particularly bad. It slipped off its track this morning on the way to work (I am so pleased!) and we are getting an ice storm tonight. Most of my problems have occured BELOW 70 degrees.
As an aside, I was told that the Liberty uses the same window regulators as the Mercedes M-Class. My husband has an M-Class that we have had constant problems with as well (to include the window regulator). This appears to be a systemic problem with Daimler Crysler and it needs to be recalled! I don't want to be shelling out $400 bucks every time this goes out after the warranty expires.

'06 Liberty - Paint problem & window problem (shocker)
by whitaz58

I love my '06 Liberty, but I see from the forums that the power windows are terrible and people's experiences are worse than mine. I've had my Liberty since December 2007, took it in about 3 weeks ago to get the driver side window fixed (yes, the regulator was broken), and it broke again last week. It's covered under warranty, and I really enjoy taking the Liberty to a dealership at the crack of dawn and taking the complimentary shuttle to work with a whole bunch of other bitter, ticked off people, BUT I'm wondering if there is a way to replace the regulators in our windows ourselves? Is there another regulator that fits the Liberty? Might be a dumb question, but clearly this is a Jeep/Chrysler problem and I feel it is in the best interest of my mental health to not get it fixed again until I do further research.
I have another problem with the paint though...I have a whole bunch of tiny rust spots (I have a white Liberty) all over the car. It is actually pretty amazing how the paint is so uniformally dotted with them. You can't see them unless you get really close to the paint, but I don't want to wait until it gets worse. Has anyone ever heard of this problem before? My neighbor thinks it might be a paint defect...I live in Phoenix, Arizona, so there is absolutely no reason my car should be rusting...Thanks for everyone's help!!

Your rust spots sound like "rail dust" and a clay bar usually removes them pretty easily. Mother's is one brand but a good auto parts store should carry two or three brands. The last one I got a year ago cost around $10.

Thank you Steve! Is rail dust actually rust, or is it something else? The spots on my car are definitely rust, because when you try and pick it away it makes it worse. Will a clay bar fix it?
