I bought a 2006 jeep lib less than a year ago , and one by one all four of them came down. I have e-mailed the company three times and called once, but because there is no recall on this they can't help me the gentelmen I spoke to on the phone told me to go to a differnt site www.chrysler listens.com He said that if enough people have the same problem and wrtie them about about it they have no choice but to recall them. It only takes a few min to do and its worth doing. Thank you for your time

My Jeep dealership said that Chrysler Listens, does no good whatsoever.
In fact, they said they laugh because it is a big joke.

Hey, glad you brought up the window issue. I live in Vegas, and had one of my rear window regulators go out on a trip to Santa Fe NM. It started raining, and we all know what that spells for the seats in the Liberty. After reading this thread, I am conscious of the fact that this will probably happen again. As my warranty will expire in about 10,000 more miles, Iooks like I will be purchasing another extended warranty--it will be worth it in window charges alone! Thanks for the heads up.

there isn't anything you can do at that website, not that I see... just so you know... there has been a TSB (tech. service bulletin) out for the windows of Liberty's for years now (at least since 2002 Liberty's, if I remember correctly)... throw that at the dealership and Chrysler a few times... it doesn't do much, but oh well, can't hurt. They will never recall the window issue, because it is a design flaw. They would have to redesign the entire 4 doors/window tracks and that is VERY costly for all those Liberty's out there... never gonna happen, unfortunately... I have had my 06 Liberty since 11/06 (new) and it has had more than 16 window repairs/replacements in total!!! among tons of other problems. best of luck to you! Class action suit, that's what I think.... anyone else?

Are we out of warranty at 3 years or 36000 miles?
I am at 24000 now on an 06, and I just dread being out of warranty with this thing.
My spouse says we will be just fine. Easy for him to say, he just bought a nice sports car type thing! and he hated taking vehicles in for repairs over and over.
I see it coming down the road.
I want my Hyundai, or something.....
I dont know if a class action will work?

grrrrr - both rear windows fell! by beachpatty

i bought my 06 liberty in january 08, it has 27,000 miles on it. one window, right passenger side, just fell down into the door, for no reason. i have a friend that does that kind of work on cars, he said it's a design flaw, it's not the motor but the regulator, a plastic "chain" like thing. he put a screw in the chain to keep the widow up for me because we were leaving for vacation. while on vacation, the other side passenger window just fell down, we caught it before it fell into the window and taped it up with clear tape to get home. i just called my jeep dealer, come to find out the dealership has a really bad reputation, alas, i have a appointment for tomorrow morning.
question: is this repair, on both windows covered under the warranty? i am not working, there are no jobs in Florida now, and i can not afford to pay to have them fixed. i asked the service manager and he said he "thinks" it covered, i don't want any surprises when i go to pick it up. thank you so much for answering if you know!

Beachpatty, my window was covered, but I also have an extended bumper to bumper warranty from a private company. I just got back from the shop today, after having a 90K checkup done on the car and paying about $660--I know, they overcharged me for parts and labor, but now my vehicle is running a little hot when the ac is on. I took it back and they said they couldn't get it to heat up like it did when I drove it so they did nothing. They said that it might need a new radiator at $500! Not gonna happen. So, now I am looking for a better fair dealing shop to take my car to. I hate it because I haven't had any real issues with this vehicle since I bought it used back in 04. Anyway, I am dreading this window situation. It is a design flaw, and it is caused by the window regulator. My warranty is almost up and now I am contemplating buying another one just in case. I am a teacher, and I need my car and don't have lots of money to keep dropping for unnecessary repairs. Let me know how your window deal turns out. Good luck, and don't take any crap from anybody.

You Should Be covered by emmab

My back rear window went down and wouldnt go up (never used the thing) and it was covered under warranty. My driver's side window went down and wouldnt go up and it was too. I also requested every other window be checked and fixed.
Have not paid on dime for any of this.
Yes, the regulator is the problem because after they fixed my driver side window the first time, it was making horrible horrible noises. I took it in and they insisted they couldnt find any problems. I got with them on the phone, and said yes, it is making noises go fix it.
Lo and Behold they decided the regulator needed fixing. Hadnt they already done that?
It's an ongoing problem which apparently happens a lot and so an extended warranty or trading in the vehicle is going to be the only option.

I love my Jeep Liberty CRD which I bought new in Sep 2006. I noticed coming home from work today that it sounded like the rear window driver side was slightly open so I tried to close it and heard a grating noise so I stopped pushing the button. Drove home. Got out and looked. Saw it was down about an inch. Tried to raise it. Same noise. Used my hands and pushed it up. Knew something was wrong. Got the husband. He pulled off the panel... We saw the orange regulator cord was not attached..... hmmm. Then discovered it was not screwed in to the motor on the other end. Broken plastic. Odometer reading 36150. Priceless. Thanks for all the posts on here. I will register complaints on every single one. For the record, I live in Colorado and no one even sits in the rear seat.....

I had the same problem last summer. My rear right side window suddenly wouldn't roll up, and then fell down into the door completely. I was on a vacation so I had to find a jeep dealership in Santa Fe, NM. Their computers were down so I had to go to a liquor store, ask for a cardboard box, and drive back to las vegas with a Corona box in my window. It started raining just after I got the cardboard taped into the window. I also learned from this site that it is a common problem with all Jeep window regulators. I am waiting for the others to break now, and my warranty is almost up! I wish there was something that we could do to prevent the same thing from happening. Good luck with getting yours fixed. I am refraining from rolling down my windows too often--now I am paranoid about them breaking.
